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 ....

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........

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.
we all have cover a Pink Floyd song at some point, and the only way to cover a perfect song is to make it completely different. Deep down, I think everyone was hoping the wall was not too high, and the song could end on a happy note of breaking…
This is one of my more agressive industrial-ish tunes. There's also an orchestral version done by vaisvil; it should be somewhere in his gigantic list of tracks...I'll see if I can find it and post a link.

and i honestly don’t know what to do
you’ve taken…
lots of different things I tried in this one, mostly in structure and vox, as well as harmony and texture. I guess it is a progressive type song with some gloom.
the intro is a short bass thing with effects called nectar, its like 25 sec.s…
RPM #2, first thank you all for the comments on rpm 1,, once again i forage into the world of midi orchestration,,, while i am beginning with strings and woodwinds,, this is a section from a string piece i am working on,, that somehow led me to…

That's really rather effective. Not easy-listening, but moving.
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.

great vocals and lyrics - wonderful guitar work! and the harp too!
beautiful Keith, just beautiful. I love Indigo Girls and this is so on the money.
just give your phone a bath - that will do it!
on a roll!
this is a cool take on this. its like pink flyod version from the period they were doing movie sounds tracks.
I do say it seems you've added a great deal more Tension since the last revision I heard.
Always loved this song! Here is the CSO version http://alonetone.com/vaisvil/tracks/tension-acoustic-orchestral
I love what you did with it!
cool - very convincing orchestration and production!
wow - this is excellent! your production skills are getting really good!
Are you related to Robert Fripp? It sure sounds like it. Man this is lovely. I could heart this 3 or 4 more times.
What JamesRainmondi said - masterwork here - stunning!
this a quite good - enjoyed
Nice work, and realistic I'd say.
excellent.... needed to be said
beautiful, I'm sorry I missed it when first posted.
I really like this - nice structure and tones.
