Just me and my Guitars having some Fun on a Sunday Morning and contemplating Summertime Splendor. Original Music, Production, and Photo Art by Riff :D

This song is dedicated to a most memorable human being that I had the pleasure and privilege to work with and call a Friend in a 'previous life'. "Coach", aka the late, great Al McGuire, would often greet me by asking if everything was "All Seashells and Balloons"? Al spoke his own unique language. It endeared him to his many Players, and millions of Listeners and Viewers who enjoyed his colorful...

Just messin' with my new Trio 'Song Creation' pedal in sketching out a concept from scratch. Decided to mix it up a little using the loop created with 'follow-along backing' to my Original Rhythm Guitar via the Trio, and then played along to the mixed loop for fun.

A quick, most contemporaneous little bitta' composition and fun using my Nylon strung Fender and a tad of Stereo Binaural Panning.

OK, so ya' bust out a Strat to play along, add a bitta' Fuzz and Slap.....and then, crash it into some Alive & Kickin' Bitcrushed Drumming. Add some Conga's, Synth Pad creation, and then shake and stir up some Funky, Fun, Genre-Bending insanity. Whew! ;-) No instruments were harmed in this Production.

Respectfully different spin on some Classic Early Neil Diamond Gold. Always loved early Diamond gems. Good 'Ol Neil sure wrote some great tunes. Listens, likes, comments, respins are always most genuinely appreciated.

Not really a Christmas Carol, but more a Seasonal and Holiday Wish of Peace, Calm, Love, and Happiness to All. May your Holidays be Warm and your New Year ahead Bright! :D My first Christmas without My Dad here with us. Love and Miss him a ton. So blessed to have a number of beautiful Hohner Harmonicas he left me. My favorite one used for blending in the background of this song....A most special,...

Bitcrushed some drums and then jammed back on my Fender AmPro Strat this morn. Hope it's enjoyed. It's a sorta' RockThumper HouseRock bit. Cheers. ;-)

Link follows with all background on this Gem, first written and performed by Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails). Most poignantly later delivered by the great Johnny Cash (RIP), and included in a mesmerizing video featuring this cut from his highly acclaimed 2002 album - 'American IV, The Man Comes Around'. http://www.songfacts.com/detail.php?id=2727 This one was recorded in my own AcoustaTronic style...

Shadows Dancing Upon The Light © Riff Beach Original - RiffWerx - 2017 Insanity so close at hand Casts a Darkness upon our Land Sometimes, It’s hard to Understand Amidst the Shadows and the Noise It reverberates almost every day Sadness that’s not meant to stay Can’t we make it all just go away? Oh yeah, can we just move on? Chorus What can be said to make us See? What can be done to make us Say?...

Song created, recorded, and mixed in the early AM hours with lyrics borrowed from a favorite poem by my favorite Poet - ee cummings. Hope its enjoyed? Loved ee cummings (RIP), because he broke ALL the rules! Yet, the strength of his writing and many other talents can never be denied. Just wanted to let this one 'breathe' a little musically in my own AcoustaTronic style. As always, genuine thanks f...

Ain't No Jimi on Guitar for sure, but his influence still stirs my Soul. Hopefully, 'The Hendrix in My Heart' is felt in this respectfully intended, Interpretive, laid-back 3 AM version of but one of many Gems from Seattle's Finest. Wore out a lot of vinyl grooves listening to his completely incomparable style. Amidst all of the searing, screaming, soaring guitar solos, also loved those Bluesy Slo...

Oldest story in the world: What happens when couples, friends, or family take each other for granted. Cherish and nurture your relationships with those you love dearly. Don't take them for granted and don't forget to let them know just how much you love them every day......while you still can. Yeah, bit of a Bummer song, but inspiration so often found 'there', too. ;) Kept everything pretty straig...
