I know, you think I've completely lost it. This is actually a cover tune. Originally done by Wall of Voodoo around 1979. I did it from memory and ear, so I'm not sure if I got the notes or the Key right. It don't matter though, It was fun.

This is a filler piece for this cool new CD I'm working on. I got this Clint movie thing working pretty good :) Think of it as our hero horsebackin' it across the plains in the land of the big sky.
I think the piano has a bit of Robert Nichols…
Nice music,,, sounds like two 4 note run ons to my ear,(is that right?, actually i hear them as c,b,a,g, then d,c,b,a),, anyway they work very well,, it's really great the way you find a simple progression (and i mean that as a complement) and make it beautiful..
Hi folks,
It's good to back after RPM and the blackout of 2010.
A couple firsts here. I recorded this 100% with the computer. I never plugged in to a computer before.
I've always used a Roland VS machine and burnt my
songs/tracks to SCSI…
I guess I knew this would happen. Talk about creating one's own reality Sheeeeesh. End of the month and my pen has been re-fueled and I added some vox to this one, plus some lead guitar, and a bit of synth strings. I also took a shot at some…

sunshines on waves of grain
purple mountains are turning grey
duck and cover, the theme of the day
as times collide in the USA
spacious skies pourin' rain
Mississippi she's floodin the plains
run for cover, it's comming your way
we…
Seems to be that one song everyone likes.
Lyrics:
Stary night, the highway fades
a hundred miles and I'm on my way
I got up late
Lazy days and even crazier nights
there she was, on her way
she stuck her thumb out for me to see…

Hey Kids, Happy RPM. Surf's up! I played this one for my lady, she said she wants to move to California. I'm not sure if that's because I've been wired up in the Dog House for 9 days or if she wishes to try some surfing. Go figure....
Anyway…
I remember when we were young
I remember waiting for the sun
you said you loved me
you said you need me
you said you want me
and that was forever
I remember the stories of our days
I remember the tears in your eyes

I spent the day skrewing around with this Roumanian Minor scale again. I am really testing layered drums on this one, Toms mostly.
There's a lot happening. Acoustic, Strat, Bass, 4 Juno tracks, and all kinds of percussion.
Only a two chord change…
One of my favorite songs of all time and one of my favorite voices.
Thanks M.T.

Some days I’m fine
Yeah some days I feel sublime
All the time
But then there’s days
I wanna crawl out of my skin
And leave it in

Wasting away another weekend with some scales and mode practice on the synthesizers.
all the percussion is from the Juno drum patches and my fingers.
For you folks out there who enjoy the mode stuff this is Phrygian in A

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…
Muriel Jeanne Skinner promised that if it were possible she would come back from the dead to
tell me about the afterlife. She has not returned..
Opened the window to let some air flow through
A bird flew in and landed in my living room

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…

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.

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. :)
