The story cracked me up. Your fretless guitar would be perfect for slide guitar, i'm learning slide some now , easy to do basic style but hard to be great at it as are all things.
Great vocal on this tune,i'm impressed.

We went to visit my dad at his assisted living facility and they have a Yamaha Clavinova on which I improvised for a half hour to provide some entertainment. This is a ~ 3 minute excerpt from about half way through. This was recorded on my Zoom…

Here it is baby: This is your best vocal work ever... not nearly as sexy as the sister's rendition (and I love the shock value of a girl singing this one – I really hope that gem gets posted too) but your enthusiasm is infectious and it brings me joy to hear you torturing your fretless guitar. Was that a bit of a laugh I heard at one point? Well, it works for you. Call me country…
Trap set? We don’t need no stinking trap sets. Tambourine, cajón and cymbals.

Here's a cover of a zep classic...from Reg and Speed Demon Gene....Gene has done all the music and the mixing..thanks Gene ....and i'm responsible for the warbling..... hope you enjoy
Please - this is not the concept I asked her contribution for. I didn't feel right putting her voice up without a credit. But.... this doesn't do justice - I got things I need to do but I will have a better setting.
this is the conglomerate of the fifth song or first song from the mindtrip album that is about 4 min long and was stretched to 1 hr and 17 sec with the center cut out and posted here :) Thanks paul for the the stretch program.

The reunion was on...they came from far and wide....it was held on Easter Sunday down at.....the new cellar of Regs...chiseled in to the Yorkshire Granite ....sound proofed....bomb proof.....as they say it started with a beat...everything was…
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?)

Gritty, raw, cool Tramp tribute. I think the fretless guitar is excellent. perc matches the raw feel.
There's certainly a kernel of something really good here. I'll stay tuned!

Badass, yawl. I can attest BG is microtonal having seen him, his strings bends are often slightly sharp, an amazing gtrist when he wants to be.
I'm digging this raw riff, actually the whole piece is raw...nice!
Nice tune, sounds like Jimmy Page material

Everything I like. Distorted guitars, solid bass line, serious percussion, Hardly a train wreck Sir. It rocks.
Perfect ending!!
Damn, you parked this one right in between the flats and sharps. There's a lot to listen to.
If I lived closer to you, I would drag a couple conga drums along and join you at the retirement facility! Very honorable!
I love that you take the time to entertain people who may not otherwise get the opportunity. And a fine performance too!
Recorded great for live , well done.
The residents are really lucky to have your dad with them - look at the perks they get.
nice sound, nice improvisation! thank you Vaisvil
What a nice thing for you to do. Well done!
I like the subtle progression- almost a rick wakeman feel near the second part. I like the simple ending too.
wow, strings really fill up the room. Great sound !
Clavinova is a cool instrument w/top sound and keyb quality. I have one :-)
Talented you are, nice progression.

spectacular!
Lovely idea! Excellent vocals!
this is excellent! Nailed the leads!
yes!! Lovey!

ah this is intense!!
I take it this is with Paul's Extreme Stretch - I'm a big fan of what can be achieved with that software with the right input. I am enjoying this !
thank you for the listen and comment on Dedication. I am pleased you liked it so much!
great!!
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.
