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.

Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…

Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
Do love a golden oldie, great song, as I record on a Boss, we love Mr. Boss : ) And yes could be on any Family album ..... are you sure you're not Roger .....

Stream of Consciousness again. Just pick up and play and see where it goes. Bit crackly on the vox and intro, but all intentional to give that 'just flung together' feel! G:)
There seems to be a lot of it about - ukes - did everyone get them for christmas or something? Should I be getting one? (Used to have one years ago, the young Andrew rated it at the same level as a recorder - an "instrument of the devil" lol)
Expert use of the thing here, sir.
An old riff plus a late working shift combined to allow this to happen

rpm 3,,cello,cello, contrabass, and bass clarinet,, im really getting to love that clarinet!,, thanks for listening , and please send any comments,suggestions, thoughts richard
RPM #2, first thank you all for the comments on rpm 1,, once again i forage into the world of midi orchestration,,, while i am beginning with strings and woodwinds,, this is a section from a string piece i am working on,, that somehow led me to…
Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.
First of my rpm traks,, this year i am going to try to learn a bit about composing for midi orchestra, with that in mind i have began (in jan) to read several books on midi orchestration, orchestration and counterpoint,,, while these will probably…
Beware of following the link in the about while listening to the track!!!
It was 3 minutes before I realised I was listening to two things at once lol. I was thinking "this one is far too complex for me".
Now that I've listened to the solo piano - very cool piece :-)
Here we go, a tender little rocker from the broom-cupboard...

Yep, I was kind of going for 70s (early-mid 70s Slade was in my mind - bass and vocals, the rest fits where it can). I actually feared I had the drums TOO upfront for that!! lol
I tried and failed with a lot of percussion too - I felt it needed it. There's some tambourine, and some voices doing shaker noises - but none of it was good enough to come too high in the mix. What I really wanted was some clapping, but that didn't work at all!
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Huge and mighty, as usual, Mr Russe. (Poor Edith, happy or not, I do wish she was getting something like a hotdog or a gun.)
@Jane So dead puppies and 3-In-One in the knicker drawer is ok then? LOL
You can't do that to kittens! :o Other than that - magnificence :)
wow!!!! Your voice is just epic!!! I love the pacing of this song. It makes me want to know all the backstory about Edith. An instant fav...
Love the slide! What a great song. No one warns us that vowel sounds matter when writing lyrics, but you nailed it.
Brilliant ...
So very cool. Not my place, but I wish the outro was also the intro. I like what I like. I liked that very much.
Really really good. I thank you.
Great song perfectly executed.
Dig it right from the first note cool work on the slide you know how to write to song :-) KC
Wow! Fantastic work - Loving the bass work 👏
THAT SLIDE IS TO DIE FOR, CRY FOR OH MY. Brass on strings my fav
Cool song, great slide work!
Great track!
Wonderful medley of tones weaving in and out. Love it! That slide is captivating.
Oh yes Andrew .... Epic ..... Dark ..... Love it.
That’s a real energetic Edith at the beginning of the verse she certainly gets it ...loving it ....nice solo ....
Do love a golden oldie, great song, as I record on a Boss, we love Mr. Boss : ) And yes could be on any Family album ..... are you sure you're not Roger .....
Another quality recording from the broom cupboard
Excellent writing. The key modulation grabs me in that sweet spot
Comments made by Andrew Russe
Yes, enjoyed... like it.
This one is growing on me more each time I hear it.
Nice one. Are you saying that "stream of consciousness" means while the record light was on? If so, quite stunning.
I'm gradually getting into the weird and wonderful world of infograe
Yeah, like it. Very effective rhythm playing on the acoustic.
Yep, I'm with odh - continually amazed by the clarity of the guitar sounds you get. Nice one

lol - keep taking the tablets! Love it.
Tasty
Yep some good stuff in here.
Nice one. Me and the missus are watching Band Of Brothers again at the moment - for me, this has the same emotional kick to it that the B.O.B. theme has.
Ooo yeah. Like this. Nice song and gorgeously clean arrangement.
On a second listen, it's not a just "nice one", it's a "very nice one"
Very nice sounds - looking forward to more.

Nice one. Been listening to quite a few of yours - I like the sounds you're making.
Cool track. Like that "swampy" guitar.
Oh YES - this is mighty mighty fine.
