Wrote this song about progressing in life but never forgetting the great times of the past. I composed, arranged and produced the backing tracks and solos in Band in a box 2021. You can blame me for the lyrics and the vocals.

I'm Doin' Fine

I was inspired to write this song by the passing of an old friend and one who remains.
I wrote, composed and produced this song. I sing all the vocals and play the guitar. I rendered the drums and bass in Band in a Box 2021. The Solos were also rendered in Band in a Box 2021, The guitar solos were played by Brent Mason, Long acknowledged as Nashville's #1 guitarist, a 14-time winner of the Academy of Country Music "Guitarist of the Year" award and a 2-time winner of the Country Music Association's "Musician of the Year" award. The Pedal Steel parts were played by Paul Franklin, a perennial nominee for both Academy of Country Music and Country Music Association awards.  He has won multiple awards from each institution, as both Steel Guitar Player of the Year and Musician of the Year, and is the reigning ACM Top Steel Guitar Player of the Year. They both recorded "RealTracks" to be used in BIAB.

The Last Best Friend

I was talking with my friend Loo Wood the other day about the old days and old friends in and around Pinecrest Lake and how I missed it. He said "At least the lake was there when we needed it". That inspired me to write this song. Hope you find it enjoyable.

The Lake Was There When We Needed It

A song I wrote about how life feels sometimes...

RP Life Is Like A Wheel Revisited

Wrote this song about something everyone needs to do.

Be True To Your Heart

My newest song. I woke up one morning after dreaming about it. Wrote and recorded it in one morning. 

The Island Way

This is a re-working of a song I wrote awhile ago. Loo Wood plays the lead guitar, 12 string and one of the rhythms on this version.

Where I Belong - Revisited

I was inspired to write this song today by.....I don't know....maybe a TV show or a Movie. Anyway, it is about the Pioneer's journey through Nevada on their migration West to the Goldfields of California and the Coast of the Pacific Ocean beyond.

Wishful Thinkin'

RP Among The Trees

 About where I strive to be and a girl who shall go unnamed but is always in my heart and my thoughts.

On Higher Ground

I am an Amature Musician and Studio Rat. I enjoy recording tunes in my home, computer based, music studio. I use Band in a Box to compose and arrange the songs. I also use it for adding Synth Instruments like Drums, Bass and occasionally a Solo. I use Adobe Audition as a multi track mixer to build my Guitar and vocal tracks on top of the basic Drums and Bass and for Mastering. I have recorded many songs but the ones you'll find here are written,composed, and arranged by me. Ten (10) songs (that I'll share) and counting!
