LISTEN FREE; Donate For a Copy - June 2, 2010

Listen to the new album in it's entirety; just click play above (or pick and choose songs on the Music tab to your left). It has been 7 years in the making, but now that it's done, I can't seem to decide on a set value for the CD.  (divided at 8 dollars an hour, it would be something like $364.80 each)  So I have decided to let YOU DECIDE.  And it's not a cop-out!  Really, just have a listen, and if you want to support the music and help keep it coming, then simply make a donation ( $10-20 suggested) and I will personally send you a CD in the mail.   It's that simple.

If you want to donate via credit card or paypal, simply use the donate link below.

If the link isn't working, or you would rather donate via check, money order or cash,  send it to:

Rock Solomon

756 Cherryvale Rd. Boulder, CO 80303

( note: please contact me to let me know you're sending a donation, and Thank you! )

LIVE online - March 29, 2010

      ...Well folks, this is it.  After all the false starts, premature finishes, and bumps in the road, I can finally present this project with total confidence.  Every detail on every song has been meticulously crafted in my home studio, and now that it is a completely finished full length album I can give it away to you.  I hope you enjoy.

(use the grey flash player on the top of the screen to listen to the entire album and still browse the website)  

 Special thanks to:   Sandie Metzker, Meg Sieger, Anoosh Tirabady, Tia Quilter, Charles Lanesey, Susan Council, Jillian Adams, Jessica Miller, Marc Borai, Ed Gillis, Peter Polyak, Ollie Kangus, Nancy Cochrane, and Chris Chandler.  Without your help, my album would still be sitting on the shelf waiting to be mastered.  THANK YOU.  You all have a CD in reserve, and I will personally mail them to each of you as soon as they are printed.

 And now, the next phase:    The fundraising for printing begins.  Please listen to the record here (this is the only place you can) and decide if you want a copy.  If you do, please make a donation to the printing fund.

Donations of $10-20 reserve a copy, and any donation of $50-100 and your name will be listed in the special thanks on the CD booklet.


*The album is being held back from digital download because it will be getting shopped to a selection of independent record labels.  RockSolomon.com is the ONLY PLACE that this record will be available for now.  I do have other recordings for download here: Rock Solomon on iTunes.com

The Album... - January 10, 2010

It has taken me over 2,350 man hours to finish, eaten my entire life savings, and has out lasted all my relationships; but I'm happy to say that my record is finally done. The songs are all original works, performed and engineered in a home studio that was destroyed and rebuilt twice. The project somehow survived 6 hurricanes, two emotional meltdowns, a massive flood and bankruptcy. It features solos from jazz greats such as Ronnie Pierce (played with Quincy Jones, Ray Charles, Billie Holiday) and Kenny Fradley (Broadway, Carnegie Hall, U2 War album) as well as Julee Avallone (NEC Masters) and Brady Thomas (mysterious street musician).

Now that the record is done, I have decided that instead of selling them,

they will be given out for donations. 

First however, I need to raise the money to pay for mastering, the final step in any pro studio recording before going to print.

If you contribute a donation of 10-20 dollars, I will put your name on a pre-order list for a copy of the finished CD. 

Any donation of 50-100 or more, and I will list your name on the CD booklet in the Special Thanks as well.  

Thank you to all who have already contributed, & i hope you enjoy the music.  

  Problems? Question for me? Just email me at Music@RockSolomon.com & we'll figure it out. Thanks Again
