Description : Took a couple months away and decided to retire my old imac and get a new M3 chip imac. By doing so EZ drummer and Ableton had to be upgraded to the latest version to comply with Apple's new chip. And I just bought a new 50's Epiphone Les Paul Jr with a tobacco burst, "Inspired by Gibson" series. Here's the first song using all the new stuff. All guitar is the new Les Paul Jr. A song about a carjacking with a good ending.

Description : Hard rock, a bit towards the punk end of things. Turned on the distortion on the Fender Downtown Express bass pedal and I'm playing my Epiphone Les Paul Standard using the Marshall Guv'nor guitar pedal. Moog Theremini theremin lead. Our character seems to be down on his luck.

Description : Here is a more modern cover of the classic Melanie Safka song that I loved as a child. Her voice was strong and haunting at times and her songs were powerful like her hit Lay Down. Look what I did to her song, electric guitars and harmonica, oh my.

Description : A rock song about drinking too much wine and the atomic bomb.

Description : Medium tempo rock song about a lost love or something along that line. A variety of Les Paul guitar tones through the Guv'nor.

Description : Multiple guitar tracks, bass, drums, singing, kept things pretty basic. A song about walking home after your vehicle dies at the end of a dead end road. A weird vocal part in the middle, something different.

Description : A song about finding a dead body in a river. Epiphone Les Paul electric git, Fender Jazz bass git, strings, Johnson mandolin, EZ Drummer and some singing.

Description : Pop/rock with a little sax, trumpet, piano, guitar, lots of bass, drums and singing. A song about going on an adventure of sorts.

Description : Alt rock song where our character has an urge to keep moving on as far as where he calls home. Gritty guitars and vocals.

Description : A short folk instrumental number with drums, bass, acoustic guitar, mandolin, cello and harmonica. I would say this is more an interlude than a song, something to put between songs.

Description : Rock song about a guy who's lifelong bad credit issues finally catch up to him. One distorted electric guitar, one with phaser on it, bass, drums, some piano, a singing track and a vocal breath effect.

Description : Cover of the Kinks classic song with a little theremin this time.

Description : A rock song with a thick electric guitar, bass and drums and 2 theremin tracks. The song is about cruising around San Bernardino, California.

Description : Folk rock with a theremin track. A song about the Klondike gold rush.

Description : I did a cover of the Bee Gees classic song. Being from Massachusetts I grew up loving this song and the Bee Gees wonderful music and especially their harmonies. Kept the music simple but I did have the electric guitar and the harmonica in my hands a few times.

Description : A lighthearted look at the space shuttle, Richard Feynman, american oligarchs and the Jetsons. Acoustic, electric and bass guitar, drums, singing a couple effects and a title of a lecture on youtube to watch Richard Feynman talk about Los Alamos while building the first atomic bomb, funny stuff.

Description : This one is a cover of the Donovan classic rock song. Always was a fan, the Greatest Hits album is worthy of being in your record collection. Season of the Witch is my fav of his. Bass, drum, acoustic and a few electric guitar tracks, me singing, 2 pads, a trumpet and a french horn. Made a few adjustments to the mix, brought out the horn, bass singing a bit more.

Description : Start the new year off with a folk song about a train, a song about taking the long way home. This one is for Stobe the Hobo, RIP.

Description : As kids, my brothers and I used to watch the WWF professional wrestling on Saturday mornings and one of the "characters" was a big dude who dressed as a US marine and had the moniker of Sgt. Slaughter. He used a submission hold called the Cobra Clutch. I recently watched the Ford vs Ferrari movie and was inspired by the great music in it. That's what this one is all about. Cool movie.

Description : I was fusion splicing fiber optic cable in the middle of nowhere, Alabama many years ago when a bunch of prisoners and a guard on a horse strolled by me as I was doing my thing. This song is about that encounter. Drums, guitars, bass, singing and some piano this time.

Description : I asked Robin if he would like to add some electric bass guitar to my track, he agreed and gave me a bass track with a wobble effect on it. I added some electric guitar fills, some classical guitar strumming and fills, some tambo and shaker and sang a song about the warm desert sand.

Description : Found some 70's funk drum loops that I liked and added some funk horn loops. Then I found some effects and percussion loops that worked well with the bass loops I found. Yeah, all loops but 1 vocal track of mine. :) Funk/fusion? Might be cool to have some hip hop styled vox on this, any takers?

Description : Not sure of the genre. I used vocal loops from a folder called African Vocals and 3 different kinds of horn loops and a shaker loop. Using EZ Drummer, I'm playing the bass and the 3 electric guitar tracks.

Description : Have you ever known someone who earned 2 or 3 times what you did but never chipped in when your friends ordered pizza or never bought a round at the local pub, never brought food to the party.... You know the guy. When is enough, enough? Drums, bass, me singing, and yes, that's my acoustic guitar.

Description : Been out with a bad back the past few weeks so I didn't play any guitars on this one. It's all loops from Ableton, Adobe, EZ Drummer and packs I've accumulated over the years. Weird/industrial/post apocalyptic theme. Vocals have some level or none of the following: guitar amp, overdrive, vocoder and other effects.
