I found this one while I was digging through the shoe-box for the 1994 songs. Apparently I wrote it on 10th November 1995.
Foolishly, I thought it would only take a week or so to record... I was originally expecting…

Finally, at last... I've got something finished...
Been working on this for a few weeks.
A bit of a rocker... (and an aging lecherous one at that)
I got it as close as I could and then mixed it loud... I've over-cooked it slightly - but…
Oh yeah. Great rocker and what fantastic vocal work. Love those guitars and I love the lecherous lyrics. Does not sound over-cooked to me, Andy; in fact it sounds bloody great with just the right amount of limiting.

Here's the very latest from the broom-cupboard.
I wrote it one dark night over 23 years ago.

I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…
I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…
Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.
I had to go to a…

I feel I should donate something as I've recently downloaded all of your alone-tone catalogue and must say I've been O-D ing on you most of the afternoon and I haven't come across a bad track yet (there's got be one surely where you suck and its badly recorded.... go on put one up for us mere mortals where we can say " Well he's not perfect is he?") love your work Bravo and Thank you
A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

Hey, I was just describing the love of my life. The girl I write all those sad songs about...gone, 13 years now and she is still ever-present in my thoughts.

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…
Woof! Liked the first track, this one is huge... and I'm not even on my big monitors. No idea what this style/genre is called, and like I said before, I don't usually go for it, but there's something about the way you guys do it that grabs me.
Well I'm always searching for different sounds to add to my songs, hopefully I've have here. Mind you, learning to play Violins, Violas and Cellos took a bit of
work .... He He He ......
Wow. That works, big time. Very cool sounds enhancing those acoustics. Love how they interact. Love the guitar solo too. And it's a really cool song. Big thumbs up here.

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…
A song I wrote in May this year!
I tried to not make the layering too intense in this... hopefully I achieved that lol?
I think the mix has gone a bit weird at the beginning?? sorry about that... might go back and change it at some point in…
Here's another original song that I wrote this year!
I may have gone a little insane with the layering in this one... but I kinda like it so I won't apologise for it lol
Lyrics:
You can take your time, I'll wait for you
Suppose that's all…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Like this very much...really tight mix, and love the drum sound....
It's fun to hear how you just find these gems in the shoe box.
Back for another listen and now I just want to dance around the kitchen to this all day. I’d fav this again if it would let me!
Love that country zeppelin swing thing here... an instant fav! What a shoe box!!!
Top notch Andrew ...... again ...... : )
Oh yeah. Great rocker and what fantastic vocal work. Love those guitars and I love the lecherous lyrics. Does not sound over-cooked to me, Andy; in fact it sounds bloody great with just the right amount of limiting.
"Records in small room with curtains closed while wife cowers in the next room with headphones on…" cracked me up! ha....sounds familiar!
killer sound...love this....especially the bass and guitars...actually all of it! very cool....
the clock got me....looking on the wall to see where it was... good story!
your recordings i have heard are all impeccable... excellent... you gave me some tips on eq on SC that I have been applying....really makes a huge difference....thanks
pure and talented.... regards...stephen
Nice !
Oh yes! from the composition, sonic quality, standard of playing and lyrics to the overall positive and catchy tune this one kicks arse!

Good keys, the strings and piano are a new sound coming my way Well done
Nicely done too
Exactly!
Hey, I was just describing the love of my life. The girl I write all those sad songs about...gone, 13 years now and she is still ever-present in my thoughts.
Oh man, Andy, will you stop breaking my heart?!
It's so warm, the music reminds me of Elton John's recordings.

Hahahahahah - I fell off my chair laughing when I saw your comment, Greg :)
I was listening to this earlier when work got in the way... Now I'm back, and it feels like an old friend on second listen. Very cool track.
Cool noodling doodle
Cool title
Yep
There's some stunning playing/feel on these tracks.
And another.
And this. Love the guitar playing.
Yeah. This is cool.
Kinda spooky ... I like what you're doing with this one.
Oh my goodness. This is such a powerful song.
I did miss this one. Glad I found it now. It's a stunning song.
Oh wow. It was fine without Ray's additions... but with... it's just WOWSERS good.
This is mighty fine. Any good? Yep, it certainly is.
Dear oh dear oh dear ... lol
