The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
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…
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.

At last... I've managed to finish something.
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…

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…

With JS Tolar, as band Visions Of Nell.
My tribute to Anne Boleyn, the first queen to be publicly executed in England. I used some of the poetry she wrote during her imprisonment in the chorus. An innocent, incomparable woman.
With Big Time Operator, who originally uploaded his awesome music with the offer that anyone can add vocals...too good to miss! Love this music, and had loads of fun wailing. Thanks Chris!
Played on BBC Radio Introducing. :)

With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
An instrumental guitar tune which combines some flashy rock "guitar hero" stuff with a strong melody. Couldn't think of a title so I just did what I always do in that situation... nick the name of an old movie from the '50s
Well that's been a very enjoyable half hour, welcome to alonetone. Looking forward to hearing more of your stuff.
I'll just go and practice a bit now...!
Ah! I wondered when a "Hank" vibe would appear - I just knew you could do it... Masterful stuff.
Gorgeous tones. Are you mic'ing up "real amps" or modelling?
Like Kavin says - wow...
When this one started I thought "ah, won't grab me so much" (jazz is not something I've ever made much effort to get into, and the opening chords/stops announced themselves as "not your thing andrew") - but then... wow
(and when the stops arrived again at the end - I was well into it!)
A little jazz-funk for your delectation. My homage to Jeff Beck's 1975 masterpiece album "Blow By Blow". The title is the name of a Lee Child book I was reading at the time I was writing the tune.
Loving your stuff so far. Although I'm a guitarist, it's not often "guitar only" music holds my attention for more than a track or so - but you're managing it easily!
A little experiment... what would happen if you took a Gypsy jazz tune in the style of Django Reinhardt & played it with a rock band type line up? I reckon it might sound a bit like this :-)
A demo recorded live for the band THE BIG BAD DOG

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Lovely . . . Lovely . . . Lovely . . .
one of your best.
You have a lot of talent and skill, Andrew. I'm enjoying going through your songs. You sound like Jack Bruce sometimes (compliment)
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..
Comments made by Andrew Russe
Oh yes, like. I was half expecting it to get scrunchy as it built - kinda glad it didn't.
Spooky!
Now that's a cool sound, like it.
Ha! Greg has had the same idea :) Yep, loving the Portsmouth sound.
It's that Portsmouth blues sound :)
Rockin
:) xxx
Love what you did with this.
Now I know what you were wearing, this makes more sense to me... Gorgeous vocal

OK... haha! I was just thinking of dusting off my fiesta red strat... and then this kicks off... perhaps I'll play one of the teles instead. Love it.

Some gorgeous lyrical playing here.

Tasty. Very tasty.
Oh yes! Nice one
The Big Bad Dog is a rocking little combo. Love it.
This is shaping up real nice... crying out for the right bassist. Loving what you guys are doing together.
Rockin stuff.
