And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.
On…
Oh yeah...the slide just kicked in and the hair on the back of my neck stood up. Killer groove, the bass and drum lock up, along with the Rhodes...... Love the space in this mix too. Damn, Andrew, you are on fire. It's good to hear you making music again. Selfishly speaking, it's inspiring.

OK, let's delve once more into the magical shoebox of unused songs...
I've already recorded several that were written in 1994 (Sleeping with the Ghost, Elizabeth's Room, With Mum Again, If You Knew, A Hundred and…
Exhales...man. I'll just say this is really, really powerful. And tough to listen to since I think I know where this is from. On a production note, whatever mics you are alluding to where a good acquisition. I love how your acoustic has been sounding on these cuts this morning.

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…

Oh! The backing vox! I can hear the 1978 in it, and I like it, a lot. I love the "I didn't think..." sections leading into the chorus. Whatever you're doing for chords and build...perfect. The chord changes in general, the twists, shifts...You need to write more in this vein...

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…

I LOVE this!! It's got everything - super-catchy, some lovely chord changes, great middle eight and a key change at the end. This would have been a huge hit in the 60s!

That’s a long way back! Long before any of us could easily record at home. It’s a fun song that you have held onto all these years.
I wonder we’re the next generation of musicians are? The garage bands, kids dragging instruments around, all that seems to be gone. You’re song has managed to bring back the memories of my youth.

Here we go.
This one started out one morning several weeks ago when the sun was still shining...
If it's as wet and dark as it is here, just close your eyes, I'm sure you can imagine it if you try hard enough...

Take another chance on this Dice.
Throw it until luck comes our way.

I got me a new Cajon.
This is the first time recorded it (or played it for more than 30 seconds to be honest. My son keeps telling me to be quiet, then jumps on to it himself... ).
Thank you G man for Playing guitar on this. Luv ya bro…

Do you know T? I think this is the first live recording of yours I've ever listened to.
You cut it live just as well. Great song too.

An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track
Did the world really need a cheesy, spaghetti western version of this classic Eagles song? I'm not sure. Did I make one anyway? Yes. Yes, I did. By the way the painting is "Villa Diablo" by Downe Burns.

Brilliant!
We definitely needed this version.
I suspect that even Ian Anderson would like this take on the chords he "lent" them Eagles chappies... lol
Faved, no problem :-)
This started up while I was commenting something else... initially I was going to stop it, but something dragged me in... I was over halfway through before I realised I'd stopped typing!
Nice one, well worth a listen... it kept my attention all the way.

Vocals: Rebecca Riss
Lyrics: Donna Devine
Drums & Horns: Ian Burrage
Bass: Andy Gupta
Piano: Steffen Offermann
Guitars: Mike Woodford
Composed, arranged & mixed by Steffen Offermann
I think this was the first song that Donna and I collaborated…
Like it. I think you're right on the mix though. I'm guessing you're quite attached to the sound of the band, but could seat the vocal a lot better now.
Some stunning - and extremely musical - guitar work on this one, like it.
I often get bored with guitar instrumentals like this - NOT THIS ONE
Yeah, pretty dang cool... good stuff :-)
This is an older song and hey, you'll finally get to hear me sing badly! This was under my old name Piscean Dream so I couple of you may or may not have heard this before. Thanks for listening!
I thought I'd commented this (and others)... I'm obviously not awake yet !
Really glad you've joined up, loving your stuff.
Are those real drums? You play drums as well??!!

A few measures in and I am already smiling. I can feel the warmth of this song coming through, and I love how your acoustic sounds. Great cut!
Another wonderful song, Andrew very much enjoyed KC
Sounds like you’ve been inside my youngest sons head. Seb would agree totally...... excellent delivery as always ...
Good stuff. You're very versatile.
Does have an old school feel ... but that's good.
Another beauty from the shoebox.. keep em coming

Has a Beatlesque vibe :-) 15 when you wrote it, huh, the talent was already there... enjoyed it, Andrew KC
Loved it the first time around, now adore it, a cross between Dr. John and Leon Russell, with little bit of Ian Dury ...... Magic ....

Yo T :-) I remember you talking about the project, but I don't remember hearing this. Fantastic project, but a cool piece of music anyway.

Woo! Great voice, and I like where you go with your melodies.

Among other things, your tracks are making me think of The Doors - no bad thing in my book. Like what you're doing.
Tom Baker for me! Hi there 64! Could've been a bit longer mebbe :-)
Ah! Another Tricia Dovidio vocal - yesss... Got any more? :-) Love the organ... but I'm a sucker for a hammondy tone
