I loved this reading when I first heard Reg do it
and noticed your desire to add music.
Well, what you have produced here Chris is ideal and I love the way it is longer than the poem which
enhances the atmosphere.
With Frank Miller on drums and bass as the band "2" - a rescue of a late 90's song grabbed from 4-track.
No Place
I'm lost, you're lost
Ships at sea
There is no place
We can be
I'm lost, you're lost
In this world
There is no…
My first acrostic prompt, requiring the word "Hope" to be spelled out by the first letter of the lines. Found in the chorus:
Hands don't fail me now
Oh, just a little tighter
Please hold on, hold on to
Everything
i wrote this in 81 originally called - battlecry. but i updated it to a sci fi type armageddon story. a video would have went well with this but, maybe some day. all explosions, firepower, helicopter sounds and all battle sounds did on keys…

A quick little tune written in appreciation of a small expression of contentedness.
I can see in that little smile
You're living for the moment
Every once in a little while I catch it
No one else could match it
You're more than meets the eye
I purchased a new M-Audio midi keyboard during RPM. The software alone was worth the $100.
There was no chance I was wasting any time during RPM with a learning process.
Today, I got the opportunity to install the software and plug it in. This…
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
a song about an old flame that just won't burn out. it's a ballad of sorts, with a harder ending. i did this in about 7 hours. in the middle section i am playing guitar without a pick for the first time in a recording (big deal hey?)
A rubbish track by Tess got the Sandbags treatment here - the results only hold shades of the original. And it's just as well.

my tribute to a very underrated, underappreciated band. 40 yrs ago thier self titled lp came out, and i cover one from the lp as a tribute on thier 40th anniversary. im not a lead guitarist, and a new singer, so please bear with me on that.
I was listening to Jesmiaus earlier Trick of your love (RPM2012) and it gave me an idea for my first RPM this year...so thanks Will...... hope you all enjoy this....i did doing it...they say smoking weed can make you schitzophrenic but i’m not…

Way to bring the jam to the people! Nice improv!
Is this stretched? It reminds me of jelly fish too. (You crack me up Bee!)
Well oh my, and OF COURSE this would be spot on! Reg's spoken word is...alarmingly attractive in this one. Swoooon! Sandbags x (OK, no, this is Tess)
Stirring and bold tapestry! The mix is amazing! Tess S
Agree with Kavin- Great work!
Sounds well creepy. I like the feeling of the ebb and flow. Reminds me of jelly fish!
Great work yawl. Even rivals the great Vincent Price's recitation.
Dark and ominous......switch those lights on......
Very much enjoyed that.
I think you guys need to team up and go on tour.
Very trippy song! Also, thanks for your advice I am on both Last.fm and Thesixtyone, although I only made a profile on thesixtyone a week ago.
very nicely, spoken, and very nicely, enhanced,,
This is wonderful.
Love it Chris you've turned it into a silk purse from my Pigs ear........
Oh, I was reading it up. What a lot of uses it has. Your track sounds incredible through head phones. I enjoyed it very much.

that magic cream definitely worked wonders....excellent
Ah! Don't look now, but your classical guitar training is showing - this is fantastic!

I like your riff very much. Good one Chris!

very nice! A nice song and performance all the way around.
Pretty good - Rush has nothing on you! Of course we composed (but never performed) Singer's Overture quite some time before 2112....
I'm glad for the positive outcome. :-)
enjoyed this a lot!
what is the tuning? It has a nice feel to it. Sort of rag time floating in and out - is it 24 equal?
I love the backwardsness !!
lovely - you have such a talent for beauty!
I got an m-audio 88es - big brother - very good keyboard. This is a very nice piece - and the title theme is excellent~
excellent!! and I love the photo too!
that makes more sense...
yes, the bluesy part.
I saw autoharp and I had to listen. I really like this song. Very nice vibe to it.
enjoyed - like Kate Bush meets Tori Amos at Apex Twin's home studio.
well, Iceland is about half-way - I say we have an Alontone party in Reykjavík - perhaps we can get Bjork to join in!!
this is lovely - way way too short!!
excellent - never heard the original but I love what you've done here.
awesome!!
once again - simply beautiful!
beautiful!
Love the vocal split - excellent rock ballad
