Just a quick groove idea with 2 flavours in the recording (drums change, and balance changes slightly).  Maybe I'll use this later.

Groove idea...  maybe a song later

This was me playing my mood one morning...  not really a song as much as something oozing into the piano.

Mood

I just started this, only a few hours into it...   It is a kernel of an idea, a seed for a song to come...

May 17:  first idea, no structure, just things that I liked

May 18:  small cleaning changes.  different piano behind guitar melody, piano fast run cleaner.

May 30:  more small changes, starting work on other parts of this story...

UNTITLED May 17 new song idea (update May 30)

A song in progress, inspired by an interview with Laura Fabian and her song sent to me by Laura X...  although this has gone nowhere close to that original, the mood grew out of that seed.

June 28:  idea stage, roughed in a few parts, the feel, trying ideas.  Suddenly ends where my ideas end.  More to come!

June 30: cleaning

Rain and Shine - Incomplete Song June 30, 2012

An idea in my head after getting off the float plane from Seattle...

Playing around with an idea and it became a song in the same sitting.  I was going to go back and restructure it, but I ended up just liking it from this first go around.  Leave it be, it works.

Saturday Flight (Aug 24, 2012)

Improvisation around a theme that kept coming up when I was practicing the prior week. It's a bit rough but matches the mood of that time.

Happy Accidents

Restoration

Restoration (May 22, 2013)

I don't know what this is, other than an aimless improv.

Melodylessness - aimless improv (June 9, 2013)

I remember a guy that could really jam the blues organ, he sounded something like this...  but he didn't suck.

Organ Jam - short

Three simple moments.  3 related improvs done in one day: morning, noon and evening

Three Simple Moments

I don't know.  I don't have an explanation for everything I do...
