This one's a bit of a ponderous beastie.
It can be whatever you want it to be. For me, it's got a lot to do with Sunday 18th June 1815.

This was written months ago. I was about to try recording it with one or two others when this year's decorating started. With various buggered fingers, back muscles, etc, etc, I wasn't actually able…
I was flapping around working on something else with just vocal and guitar the other day. It wasn't going well, so I just started slapping the guitar and singing one of my favourite songs.
What I didn't realise was that I was recording it…
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
Thanks Andy your on the money... not sure what upset him in the lyrics I can't find anything offensive but hey it takes alsorts to make a world he must have been having a bad day.... And by the way this is still a beauty

This song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…
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…

Place In The Sun
Toms Tune / Lyrics
It’s the spiraling mind that’ll slowly unwind
And scatter thoughts for no one to find
It’s the restless heart that simply come's apart
Forever searching for a new start
No I’m not one to ever come…
So Many Things
By Mark Andrew
So many things, inside my head
So many words, that needs to be said
Time, travels on
Days and nights, nights and days,
all have their song
Time, travels on
Days and nights, nights and days,
all have…
Belladonna
(Timbob Tune / Chris Lyric)
I see her beauty shines so bright
In the red summer sunlight
Venus casts her blinding light
Much to Mars’ delight
A molten marriage of fire and ice
The seductive serpent in paradise
She’s the Goddess…
First Lie
Chris Tune / Toms Lyrics
I heard you singing from the roof tops
saw you swinging in the trees
tripping on a cough drop
dealing your disease
I watched you watching from the washroom
heard you tumble down my stairs
passed out…
Trying to figure out what an Inbeseen might be - but who cares? Whirly organ, scrunchy guitars, and that bass (I'd actually like to hear more of that - there's some groovy stuff going on down there) - what else does one need?
Solid stuff.
Oh yeah. Nice contrast between the verses and when the double time kicks in. And then the stonking guitar that kicks off the middle section - woof! I specially love the guitar in the verses.

Ambient, building electric guitar instrumental, something like a cross between the late great Gary Moore and some softer stuff by Allan Holdsworth.
Imagine your spacecraft nearing a black hole, and the strain it puts on your vessel. Then, as…
When this started, I was disappointed that it was going to be an instrumental to close. But I was wrong, the guitar does the job of a vocal, lyrics and all...
Superb set of songs - loved every minute of it. Well done, very well done.
Morning Glow
End of the line
Ahead of me just loneliness
Scanning the horizon - only emptiness
Losing heart for a while
As the twilight’s rolling in
Getting caught between the darkness and despair
Used to never fail
Used to find a…
Oh I LOVE how you use chords and harmonies.
Wonderful dynamics in this one. It almost feels like it has two choruses, the bridge is so powerful. And then when the chorus proper kicks in, it's shiver-down-the-spine time... Superb.
TIME TO HEAL
The gates of freedom close at hand
Time to rise and take a stand
Sometimes you have to let it go
Leave behind all that you know
To draw a line up in the sand
Some secrets stay inside
Finding a way to hide
So many moments…
And a resonator! (Sounds like you've got the same guitar collection I have - hehe).
Aww this is a gorgeous song. The backing vox are spot on. And I think this my favourite lead vocal so far.
On, I DON'T have a pedal/lap steel - is that what it is? Sounds fabulous.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Amazing track Andrew!! Loved it!
Very nice song. terrific arrangement.
Can't believe I missed this beauty .....
Thanks Andy your on the money... not sure what upset him in the lyrics I can't find anything offensive but hey it takes alsorts to make a world he must have been having a bad day.... And by the way this is still a beauty
Found this one just now... WOW this is just awesome. Amazing lyrics....
Powerful stuff. Great production & really "live" feel. Superb vocal too. Excellent... loved it :-)
Nice job! I like the hard edge guitars
Excellent Sir .....always a pleasure
Nice one :)
I love it as it is.
Supersaucy.
Totally fantastic. So "you". Really dig the low slung vox in the verses especially.
You ponderous beastie, you. Kinda retro in feel but tight like a drum.
*Another Masterpiece Andrew!* Excellent instrumentation and the Lyrics weave in and out perfectly!
Oh yes I like this Lyric , like it like it
Your writing is always just amazing. Great song!!!
Top drawer. ..yes; Waterloo, where 40 something thousand lives were 'flushed' and a fortune made for others..
I say... that was most enjoyable.
I really love that change up to the chorus. "And when you..." Swoon swoon.
Oh. Fabulous.
Comments made by Andrew Russe
Nice closer - I'm a sucker for a good organ! Fine album. Well done guys :-)
Oooh, nice contrast
Loving the guitars on this one
Nice one
Oh yesss - very strong riff. Liked this one a lot.

Digging that wah.
Oh yeah. Nice contrast between the verses and when the double time kicks in. And then the stonking guitar that kicks off the middle section - woof! I specially love the guitar in the verses.
I'd wondered where you were at! Good to hear you. Rockin stuff.
How did I miss this???! Rocking
Yep, listen to that Peppermint woman - come back and upload some more... this is fabulous
Ooo, and this is a goodie
...but I love this one.
I like this one...
Oh, gorgeous organ sound.
Love the emptiness - the arrangement fits the mood rather well.
Mac's & Gene's comments brought me here... Glad I made the trip. And this was a jam? Very cool.
