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…

This is great! What starts out as a super solid guitar riff turns out to be the start of an inventive arrangement and tasty guitar playing. Your voice is interesting too, and made better by the fact that you're clearly feeling it!

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…

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…

Thanks for your latest round of positive comments, Andrew. Really most appreciated. Have access to unbelievable range of sound libraries etc and looking to try them all at the moment!!!

I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…

I found this one while I was digging through the shoe-box for the 1994 songs. Apparently I wrote it on 10th November 1995.

Apologies to George but I love the song. Its shocking to find out that Paul and John rejected it until George dragged Eric to the studio one day. Imagine the White Album without this...
no effects of any type on this for good or ill.
The verse and the chorus are pretty much the same thing except the chorus is louder and heavier. I consider that a gimmick and a bit of a cheat, but I very often really like the way it works out. Shoot me.
The lyrics are about being afraid…
Well I seem to have a few songs with dreams and oceans in them. But then I do live on the ocean.... and I do dream ... daydream. I bought a cheap yamaha acoustic guitar from a garage sale for $50 and decided to try recording a song with it. I…
I thought going into 50/90 that I would need to do some quick recordings of really simple arrangements. Maybe just acoustic guitar and voice. Nope, not really.
This isn't meant as filler. This idea is something I noodle on almost every…
You can probably interpret this song in a few ways, but the inspiration was based on a move across the country to start a new life. I find there's an interesting tension between settling into your new home and getting use to a new environment…
The verse is a 12-bar blues phrase, but the rest of the song isn't. Clever? Probably not. The lyrics are kind of about work stress, but maybe not completely. I can't really tell anymore. The guitars are all Stratocaster.
Mixed up confused…
Something tells me I'll be mixing this one again soon.
The lyrics here are specifically about 9/11, but I guess it would apply to any major event. I was just listening to the accounts of people who were there at the time and comparing their…

Hooooly Moses yes please

great riff. So clean ! rock it
I must be corny. I like it.
Like this a lot....especially the unexpected chord progressions in the 'all the morning it was raining' segment....!
Love the way you got that Guitar tuned up, She sounds fine af:) Great song, masterful production/arrangement!
Hahahahahah - I fell off my chair laughing when I saw your comment, Greg :)
EXCELLENT! Reminds me of a blow up doll my friend once had. Everything you ever wanted.
Lala sounds bright and lovely and a little mischievous... Your comments on tracks are always appreciated! And your tunes are super easy to enjoy :)
Thanks for your latest round of positive comments, Andrew. Really most appreciated. Have access to unbelievable range of sound libraries etc and looking to try them all at the moment!!!
Apple eatin magic cup touchin all wetted up in drained wine! Nothing says love better than that. Always a pleasure to hear your goods Sir Russe!
Hey, really love the feel of this track.....and Lala is sounding pretty damn awesome too!!
Lala has got off to a winning start! Great lyrics for Halloween and beyond... and awesome tune and beat as ever. LAC
Lala sounds awesome! Really like the feel of this one... your lyrics mesmerizing
Have you been indulging in the carnival row......excellent as always
She sounds like a mean ole gal ..... She's drove you to your darker side ..... Love it ... Good on ya Lala .....
Nice to see you're still recording. It was sad when you disappeared off twitter. Ally's brother.

Fricking love it! Sparky as spurs and catchy as hello!

And this one too, like it :)
That works in a strangely hypnotic kind of way. Nice one.
Cool version! Liking the vocals.
One of my favourite songs too. Nice version.
Oh good grief. Fabulous sound and playing. I'm getting used to this 1 minute business as well (just!)
Well that works! :)
Fabulous. Still loving that telecaster.
Free beer? I'm in :-) Wow... this rocks!
Flip, that works... I wouldn't have thought putting drums on afterwards (with no click) would be the easiest option.
Aww, gorgeous sounds. And, actually, I can't hear that it's a cheap guitar. Sounds fabulous.
Love it. How did you get the bass sound? Please don't tell me you actually have an acoustic double-bass... (not allowed one here!!)
Wow - wot a sound... I was knackered by the end! Loved the burp
Very tasty. I always start in an acoustic mood, and then something just comes over me and I get all Roy Thomas-Baker about it...
Like the organic feel... a lot.
Trippy - like it :) You got drums!!! *jealous* I'm not allowed them - no space in Mrs R's office/writing-room, apparently...
And another nice one... you're a LOT more productive than I am!! At least I've got some time for doing some listening now...
Nice one :-)
Wa-ay too short though!!
Go Jimi! :-)
Oh yes, nice one.
