A field recording of an improvisation on a baby grand incongruously placed between an entrance and coffee hut via my phone. My good friend Jim Goodin converted the AIFF I emailed him and he posted it for me. Thanks Jim!
Really pretty Chris. I agree with Richard, discord is something I find uncomfortable, but hey here it works. I was sorry when it ended, so here goes again. Cheers Bee
wow Chris,, sometimes i feel like we live in such different lands.....this is really nice,, it grates on me,, but then again i suppose it's supposed too? your use of dissadense (sorry i cant spell)is intreaging (again i can't spell),, tell me are there minor and majors in this type of tuning? there's something in this that says major key, it has a brightness that i associate with major,,, regardless of the dissadance.. anyhow nice r
No offense..... In Fact, John would've said, I don't give a s**t, you are playing one of songs ..... I think!?!?! 'till the money men get's involved ....
here is a song from 72, by bread, that I always wanted to make a harder rock version of. an idea I have had since the early 70's. this was one of the rockin' songs by bread who did a lot of mellow love songs. there is something fun about turning…
For a friend who touched my heart
Emotion - 1975
Delicatly, softly,
Not knowing where she wants to be
Confusing, disillusioning,
Not knowing who she wants to be
Pulled from side to side
And inside about to die
She screams, I can't take it…

OOOOh Bethan - the equipment was so bad it picked up Citizen's Band radios that were over-driven beyond the legal limit. Nonetheless. I still had the crush :-)

Playing guitar while watching a storm come in on weather radar.
Fernandes guitar with the sustainor pickup system. It's like an ebow for all the strings at once! Loads of fun :)

This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…
I asked JohnnyRobbo from over on the Cool-lab to do the backer for this one as our next Collab together and he's done an outstanding job on it ...I had the easy bit adding the words...Hope you enjoy this Led Zep classic......
All this Big Brother is getting a bit much for Reg............so he's got to thinking... O,O!!.... So here's a bit of a noodling folkyPsychodelic thing in Protest at our loss of freedom and where the future may lie......who's to blame?..........
Reg is leaving in the morning...there's a great big world out there to see....Acoustic & Voice trying to play that Bb Harp.........
I can’t play it safe (Lyrics
i can hear you say you want to play it safe
but i’ve got dreams i want to…

damn, I'm floored. This is perfect and you are becoming an incredible song writer. All the right stuff in all of the right places - its that special sound man, you got it! Knock 'em dead!
I've been sent to the cellar by the wife as she has a visitor...bad luck hey!...so i got the acoustic down of the wall and even tried a little harmonica...hope you enjoy........
Over the Hills and far away (Lyrics)

Just a little cover tune I did in preparation for last year's live RPM Challenge album "Letters."
Nylon string Yamaha travel guitar, vocals, and one mic... Missed notes and all.

Excellent Chris....
You can play while I cook too......
a hah! a piano ......I must play....I must.........and you do it so well.....Coffee?
In memory of poor old Lou.........
Ohhh Wowww! Chris that's wonderful. I think I will have to come and stay. You can play while I cook! Cheers Bee
That must be the big one! Very depthy! I like the contrasting tinkling chimes, lovely. Cheers Bethan
Celestrial. Very respectable for an improv. I'm not generally into brass, but you made it work for me here.
The piano is obviously out of tune, but somehow your arranged notes upon it really works for me -- too groovy. Great composition, great job. Rock on!
it is quite grand and majestically poignant - I think it is the tone or tuneless like workings that cause the sadness...
fair play then mate, its a decent tune all the same :)
True, but doing that is hard without practicing in the new key a bit. This was more for the fun of it.
its a good song, i like the lyrics. It sounds like singing in a lower octave would have done you a few favours tho

Love this song!
I've heard many covers of this one but never on piano, this is lovely. Well done.
I've always loved this song - not sure why, though... I don't actually really "like" it! lol This is a fine version. Nice one.
One of my faves.

crazy stuff!
I should mention the echo was a real echoplex... I do miss it.

If by fuzzy wuzzy you mean touching my heart - well I had a crush on Cindy.
it is a vintage 1975 cassette recording with bad equipment - please listen to the spirit, not the reality.
this is great - there is a lot of playing with expectation in this. that is awesome work Bruce!
Beautiful Bruce!
I agree with Kavin
awesome!!
Easily gets "one of the best of AT" awards! Awesome song!
oh yeah - this superb!
execellent!
Thank you so much for singing on this! Man you have a good voice!
is true that in Minnesota the ice never complete melts, it just get s a green cover in summer for a few weeks? lovely video and music guys!
downloaded for posterity...
