New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

**Nobody Loves You - A A J Russe**
Nobody loves you
Like you…
I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…
This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!
I borrowed the title from one of my favourite madrigals, The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons:
"The silver swan who living hath no note, when death approached…

This is a remix of this song.
It was recorded in 2010, and I was in a hurry to post it elsewhere because I'm so fond of the song itself. But I've always hated the old mix - I lost the essence of the guitars and choirs during mastering because…
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…
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…
Now this is my kind of rock n roll! You have the whole package... guitar playing, vocals to die for & superb production. If you were playing anywhere near me, I'd be there like a shot!
Thanks for the kind comments on my stuff too, mate. As you asked... all my guitar tones are from a VOX Tonelab amp modeller, which I record dry & add reverb/delay in the final mix.

I enjoyed the demo version immensely and then this was up next. This brought an already great track up to the next level! It was a real pleasure to hear these back to back.

A remix of this tune by a guy who really knows how to mix tracks proper...Andy found a producer type guy that liked this song but thought the mix was really bad...so I sent him all the individual tracks and this is what he came up with I think…
a song written about my memories of a trip to norway. and dedicated to my viking host Geir T Alfsen.
the original version was done acoustically and can be heard here.

Here's the Classic from Boston from that time when my locks were flowing and i was 3stone lighter....with speed Demon Gene doing the music and yours truly trying his best on the vocals...hope you enjoy as much as we did doing it.....
I can't believe the stuff you guys are taking on!! Excellent...
Couple of requests for future consideration:
Carry On My Wayward Son
Paradise By The Dashboard Light
:)
Well Reg has just realised that he keep making the same mistakes with his relationships as he always has....the first song from the Newly built cellar.....Jim just had to jump o this one............
Hello pain my old friend it's so nice to see…
Yeah, I don't like making comparisons either usually, but Jim Morrison sprung to mind very much...
Hopefully that's what at least one of the Regs was intending :)

We played this song a bit different from the record. More heavy, we recorded a live rehearsal and added some vocal tracks. Recorded in L.A. by Brian Clark
With My Sister Kathy Bores
Last Waltz Of The Evening
The last waltz of the evening
Last dance of the night
I’m making the most of each beat of my heart
Music plays and I’m holding you so tight
Hard to see it come to an end
But it’s going to…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
I like this song.
Wow, amazing transition from the demo. Both are great in their own way...nice work!
Love this. Love the gtr...
Great song, Andrew. Love the chorus and the gtr riffs.
Nicely Done. Great production and mix. Thanks for the comments from a couple weeks ago.
Clean as a whistle, soulful expressions, masterfully produced. Top notch!
Super sound, very airy and dynamic arrangement, thoroughly enjoyable!
Nice clean sound, enjoyable to listen to.
Said it already, but your voice is superb! The emotion you convey in this wonderful song is breathtaking!
I grew up in the '70s & your music reminds me of the best of what was on offer in that decade. Your singing makes me jealous... cos I can't :-)
Now this is my kind of rock n roll! You have the whole package... guitar playing, vocals to die for & superb production. If you were playing anywhere near me, I'd be there like a shot!

Oh my... this is so good!
Well constructed ditty :)
Soulful classic rock at it's best. You sing beautifully & your arrangement is masterful. Loved it :-)

Tight as a drum. Very pro.
This song rocks!

I'm glad you did decide to share this. The slide and shake guitar is outstanding!
This track is fabulous. The way it blows up in the chorus is fantastic! Beautiful lyrics my friend!

Crazy stuff. Love it.
Yep, great track. Still loving the vocal delivery. And that harp is mighty fine.
It do indeed. Nice one :)
I always wanted one too! Sounds like I might have been a bit luckier in the one that caught me though... lol Fine restrained blues.
Oh yeah...
Yep, good to see this one on here. Fine, fine song.

Thought I'd commented on this... Fine song, loving the slide.
