Entry #1 RPM 2013
Anything for You
Some rise early, some rise late
Some're up til morning light, some go to bed at eight
I'll be there baby whenever you tell me to
I guess you know by now, I'll do anything for you
Some like to rock, some…
Title Track - RPM 2013
we all clap our hands to the beat as the beat goes by
jazz & poetry in the fifties almost died
Rock n roll became the goal as people slicked back there hair
Rock, Rock and roll , the parent were in despair
Elvis was…

don’t be scared

don’t let life weigh you down
don’t let people mess you around…

The Man
There he stands, shaking hands
smiling wide with his joker smile
promises spew out of his mouth
do you believe
all he wants to do is steal the breath that feeds your child
he don’t care
he don’t give a dam
he’s…

Mama Please
She falls flat on her face
she’s totally spaced
she has no disgrace
her life is a waste
she has no respect
she’s so full of hate
she drinks from morning till it’s very late
she’s living in hell
she’s trapped…

Fine RPM here, loved every track. Took a while to get it going what with the AT "Oops" messages, but I got there :-)
Solid vox from Reg on some great tracks.

I wrote these words for a different WildGeas track some time ago -- probably at least a couple years ago by now. As is so often the case, I was too slow in producing and someone else had already taken the track and run with it. Well, these lyrics were just sitting unused in a pile of other less finished scraps that I happened to be digging through recently when I remembered Paul's request for lyrics for this year's RPM. I'm so glad they finally got used! You guys took them out of the context they were written for and put a nice new spin on 'em. You two make a really great team and I must say I'm proud to have been allowed to contribute a small part. Lord knows you don't need another lyricist when you've got REG on the job!! :-)

Pain of Loss
I’m sure i can hear a whisper, calling out the answers in the distance
the voices of a thousand men who have passed this way before
The path has been wandered a million times then they have walked through the…

LOSER
Did you ever lose your britches
Did you ever lose a shoe
Did you ever lose that sweater
Your best friend gave to you
Did you ever lose that girl you held so tenderly
Well, let me tell you buddy. You're a lot like me
Did you ever…

This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…
The first song completed for the 2015 RPM Challenge. This is historic for me in that it's an RPM song that used a real amplifier instead of a software simulator. It's not my cool Marshall, it's my Fender who once took a bath in gasoline (long…
Track 2 for the RPM 2015 album Cold Ground Was My Bed
"Yesterday was a den of sorrow, today is a bright mystery, the future a dim dream or ancient history"
The chorus is adapted from "O Death Rock Me Asleep", by Anne Boleyn, while imprisoned in the Tower of London, waiting for her execution.

Golden Days

Golden days, golden days are ahead of me
Goin' where the wind don't blow so cold
Endless Summer, soothe my soul
Where the streets are lined with gold
Golden days, golden days are ahead of me

Full moon, full of mystery
Full moon, shadows thru the trees
I can feel your spell, I’m beggin at you please
So long I been straight and true
No wrong has come into view
I can feel that dark side, all because of you
Way down…
Comments on Wildgeas Music's stuff
Nice chilled out track to open your RPM!
here's to doin' our own thing...cheers mate!
that's quite a recap tucked into this four minute nugget! But the best part is the message at the end...
this one could go on... a beautyful little mood piece
This is a really good one too... great guitar & keys. Another great collab! /faved/
Wicked guitar right off the bat! So far this is my favorite Reg/Geas track...
Woah, Reg channeling Roger Waters on this one, eh?
This is beautiful! Will have to check out the whole album later
Superb stuff.
I seem to have embarked on listen No 2 of the whole thing... lol You're right to be proud of it - it's pretty damn good.
Fine RPM here, loved every track. Took a while to get it going what with the AT "Oops" messages, but I got there :-) Solid vox from Reg on some great tracks.
fun piece u 2,, the guitar play issss really really fine,, reminds me a bit of santana's style

Very nice work, gents! Very nice indeed.

neil diamond/phil lynott vox is killer. another good one.

Cool tune. Dig the rap....reminds me of something Eric Burdon would do.
This would make a great Stadium Rock Anthem.
Great tune and exceptional lyrics. Spot on

Jammin' tune.
Very inspiring. The bird just wanted you to write this beautiful piece. :) Whew! You trashed my heart. Tissues please.
This one's a keeper.
Fabulous effort Mr.Conner. Lovin' it.
Nice track man.
Very creative :)
Classic rock and roll man. It's a keeper :)
Top of the freakin' line. Solid gold man, solid gold.
That's just way too groovy. :) Being a fast guitar player is one thing, being fast and clean is Jason Earls. A fine track Sir!
Nice changes.
Classy!
Probably my favorite Visions of Nell tune.
Incredible buildup.
Best guitar player on the planet.
Jammin'
I love this tune Regs. Spontaneously raw.
That acoustic sounds awesome. Nice piece of music.
Sweet guitar playin' man. I can't wait for my Golden Days. I think it comes with my AARP membership card. :)
Lovin' that harp playin' Greg. Don't get much better. Just cool!
Alright!! Jammin' tune Greg. Goes great with my morning coffee and cigarettes. Rise and shine :)
