A beautiful song, and Rob had the voice for it, too.

The lyrics discribe part of my past, too, and the picking just makes you listen to the lyrics more intensely.

THAT talent will be as missed as his writing.

Damn good thing I can touch-type and the home keys have the little bumps on them, I can't see through this salt water right now...

Are there any more recordings known? I'd put the time into remastering them and getting them up for download or whatnot.

Man, I'm gonna miss reading Rob in the morning.

His music seemed to really touch people, has anyone thought about publishing a collection for the benefit of his kids?

Its a good thing I can still type because I sure as hell couldn't talk with this lump in my throat. Damn.

If there are more songs I will host them. I have a whole server and not shared hosting. There are all of three sites on it and none commercial. Just drop me a note at flesh99 [at] myevilminion [dot] org

Sounds like Willy Nelson while he still had a voice.

Wow! The words are so powerful and amazing. Thanks for sharing a little bit of Rob with us today. It makes me not miss his writing so much.

I just listened to the song and it was wonderful! Somehow, I always imagined his voice would have been deeper...

Thank you for sharing with those of us who never had the chance to hear him sing live.

So that's what he sounds like huh? Is it just me or does the voice not match the picture? It's a good voice mind you, just isn't what I imagined.

why has this musical voice been kept away from those of us that couldnt make the "meets" for so long....and is their more?? anyone?

Heh. Pretty damned good, if I do say so. I'll second the call for any more recordings, hell I'd even throw in a buck or a few for a CD. Might even part with some of my precious alcohol. Maybe.

Does this have a title? I've listened to it a few times, and if it doesn't, I think "Anytime" is a pretty obvious title. The file (at least, my version -- one of the mp3s) doesn't have anything indicating a name or title, other than file name.

Wait, I'm an idiot -- I was in such a hurry to listen to it that I didn't read the whole post. My mistake. I saw "Rob's music" and a link that said "mp3 format" and just clicked. Sorry, that'll teach me, I guess.

The song is incredible! Pisses me off that Acidman didn't make this stuff available sooner, and that there won't be more. For that matter, no more Acidman. Who will be able to say what he regularly said, without looking like a poseur?

54 is way too young...

This teared me up again when I listened to it. There's something about his voice at the end of the song that just carries an incredible weight of emotion.

Thanks for making this available to all of us out here -- been wanting to hear some of his music for years, too bad it takes his passing to get it out. Any plans in the works to put out a CD? (early to think of this, I know) But it is really good of you guys to provide the means for us to listen and download -- very moving (she sniffs) Thanks so much!!

Wow! Such a voice that man had - not what I expected at all.

I'd be happy to pay retail price for a CD of more of his work - studio quality or just fooling around. Keep me posted!

Damn, I wish I could have heard it in person.

Rob, you're already missed.

I'm a lurker from Ohio who has been reading Rob and lurking for a number of years now. Upon return from my honeymoon, I was deeply saddened to hear of his passing. Thank you for making his song available to us -- it was absolutely beautiful and exactly as I'd imagined one of his songs would sound.

Rest in peace, Rob. You'll most certainly be missed in more ways than one. You've made an impression on more people than you'd ever have imagined.
