I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…read more

This one's a bit of a ponderous beastie.
It can be whatever you want it to be. For me, it's got a lot to do with Sunday 18th June 1815.

Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!

I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…read more

Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

They discount the mashed potaters
About 10, that's when I go in
Sometimes a little later...

CALEB’S REPRIEVE
The crowd is restless/It’s a quarter to noon
They’re here for a hangin’/And it better be soon
Sun beating down/The law’s not in town
Hangman’s dirty boots tappin' slow…

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…read more

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…read more

First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.

When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…read more

Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.

Singer-songwriter. Plays guitar, bass, and some keyboards. Been doing it for 30-odd years with not much to show for it except a lot of fun memories and a whole bunch of unused material.
Likes bluesy, folky, rockish, pop music. Loves harmony.
