JPF Home Page Forums General Messages Songwriter Message Forum My FAWM/RPM February CD

Here's a link to my soundclick radio station of this year's FAWM/RPM songs: http://members.soundclick.com/station/800071 -- all songs were written and recorded during February. It is an eclectic bunch and they are a little rough around the edges (ha, ha). Feel free to listen and comment. You can just click on the arrow to play all songs hi-fi. You can then just sample, skip around, turn the volume way down -- anything you like.

EDIT: I've created a lyric/liner notes thread at:

Thanks,

Kevin

I'm Taking the Mother Road (to the Mother Lode): Song idea from combining Scott C's "Mother Road" and Tony A's "Mother Lode" tunes.

Young Love: Experimental piece with just me on bass, percussion and vocals. Think Rickie Lee Jones circa 1979.

Yes: One-hour song-skirmish at FAWM -- Write, Record, Post a song in one-hour! Bethan added vocals later on.

Movie In My Head: Randomly assigned collab with Devin at FAWM. This is what we came up with! Worked out well, I think.

Here (plus and minus): Great song by "girl named sam" over at RPM -- I added bass and electric guitar to it.

Waiting On A Ring: An attempt at some "contemporary country" writing. Trying to use different meanings of "ring". Pretty cool co-write (to me).

Ole Stomping Ground: My homage to the older Van Morrison (think Old Woodstock) and The Band type tunes.

Moon Shot Jam: Great jam from TNuT over at the LPF. I added a couple of guitars and lyrics.

Helium: Mick had a "dictionary" pre-RPM challenge and I got the word Helium. 3 acoustics, bass and vocals. I enjoyed putting this one together.

Drums, Bass and Banjo in G: OK, I've wanted to do a tune where I put down a bass track and then played banjo over it. Ended up grabbing a drum track from BIAB and then added the bass part. Then banjo #1. Added banjo #2 half-way through.

Jesus From Galilee: Inspired from my daughter's district choir thing with guest directors. They did a few religious numbers that were mighty cool. They even did "John the Revelator"

On The Road: Started out as another bass/guitar/banjo/drums jam. After the first open "G" guitar part, I decided to add lyrics. The music is improvised, so.... Left out the drums and banjo.
