I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…

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…
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…

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…

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…

And here's another song from 1994, with a sparkling new "Andrew Russe Band" arrangement fresh from the broom-cupboard.
Like most of my songs, it was written with an acoustic guitar, a pen, and an A4 pad. The ones…

Due to climate change we've had little rain in the last couple of years
The day after I had written this song it rained all day :-)

I was listening to this without having read the blurb (or listening to the words...) I was thinking "that's a nice summery vibe" ... given it's been cold and cloudy here all day!! Then I paid attention to the lyrics... oops! Yep, it actually works perfectly for that too...
Haha "piratical tension" - I think that it's just you, Sister Savage... but now you mention it... maybe it is? ... but I have been drinking wine, and brandy, and watching Blackbeard the Pirate with Robert Newton earlier... Arrrrr(!) Anyways... 1. e4 e5 ... open game
... I've only just connected you with up with https://alonetone.com/puddleglum that I used to listen to! Good to hear some new stuff. Followed and ready for more :)
Well I did try and get an RPM challenge done after last years fail, but I'm still lacking enthusiasm or creativity.
Hence the uninspiring title of 'The Fifth', as this was the 5th track I was working on and the only one that came close to completion…
It's good hearing some Mac music again. Hope your'e doing ok. I went through a long gap, not wanting to record any music... bought a LOAD of guitars though!!
This started life as a vey simple 'disco' bass riff over which I then brought in the chords. Its got a sort of 80s pop/prog thing going on - not surprising as I'd been listening to a lot of Nik Kershaw when I recorded it!
I was messing about and this came out. Thanks for listening
GET DOWN ON MY KNEES
I get down on my knees and I pray for a day
Where we can all go outside to run and play
Take my hand and tell what you see
can you see a future, for likes…
Oh fab fab fab... I love the "foot-stomping" vibe this has... wife not so much, I've got headphones on, she's doing something else, I was stomping! Who's on the electric solo at the end? Classy. And the harp... woo, yeah.
With a little help from Arthur & Elvis i had a bit of fun in the cellar and Regged up an old classic. Thanks for listening
My baby left me
she never said a word
My baby left me

Awww love it. Back in the dark old days I used to do a version of this with the chaps... (ours owed more to Slade and included That's Alright). When I saw the notification that you'd done it, I rushed for the headphones... and it's even better than I hoped it would be. GO Reg! :)
In Lockdown, I have really been inspired to return to my more classical roots, and have enjoyed playing around with the idea of epic style movie or cinematic themes/trailers. I have imaginatively named them Lockdown Orchestrations No. 1, No…

The titles didn't grab me when I saw them posted yesterday - so I didn't rush to switch to "listening mode"... but now I have... The music, YEAH! Nice one.
I wrote this one morning but gave up tryin to sing it . then I asked my buddy Steve Schostal to do vocals . His Canadian accent was perfect for this . Notice how he leads the beat ‘wow perfect.
I love Colabs
It started off as a shimmery, summery canvas in my head but morphed into something very different from the middle 8 onwards. It was originally done at 100BPM but sounded a bit 'ploddy' and pedestrian so I beefed it up
Listened to this yesterday, but forgot to comment... working at home, eh?! ... anyways, I was listening to a track on another site just now, and it gave me the same open and fresh air feeling I thought remembered from this. Yep, as I remembered, but then this has some complex emotions too... Cool track.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
You've been gone too long! This sounds rich - love the stereo duelling guitars. Great tune and lyrics too
Good stuff, really crisp sound.
Liking the country vibe! Lovely harmonies too. :)
I love your music. You never disappoint. Always makes me happy to hear your music. Awesome.
'ello Stranger, that's a real piece of class, A + + + from me.
Great song, vocals, and production!
Very nice work, I love the quality in your voice.
Welcome back sir! Really nice song, instrumentation, and super sound quality even through the ol’ ear buds!! 👍👍🎶🎶👍
Another beauty from house of Russe well worth the wait
Great piece.
You had me at, "If I back off and shut my mouth..." Know exactly where you are. So afraid the answer is, "No."
Sounds like a 50s Buddy Holly era song. Very sweet sentiment. And, yes, I can dance to it.
Great characterization. Great kick drum sound.
WoW! Rock me, dude! Love the imagery.
Genius lyrics !
Love this !
Oosh.
*double take*
Seems your peers and colleagues were very mistaken. Great job. acoustic57
Wowza! Kudos to the nice work from the man behind the curtain :) acoustic57

Back for another listen. Yep. Those are gorgeous guitars, and the groove, and the vocal... And the harmonies on the bridge... This is mighty fine.
Yep, cool sounds. Certainly moving the air in my broom-cupboard studio!
"snacks with a special flavour" hehe

Wot a groove in those verses... The vocals are mighty cool... And a hot little solo... WOW!

Oh yeah. Like it. Enjoy the weather :)
I could favourite them all. But this one woke me up from the work I'm doing... And, it's got a "distinctive" title, of course.
Yep, followed. Looking forward to hearing more.
Oh yes... liking the tunes you make... and yes, this fits its title too.
Catchy title dragged me in... LOVE IT!
