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...

Wow! I just really love this. Amazing lyrics and the raw and measured pace of it is so compelling. Thanks for sharing the whole story of how this came to be as well. Keeps me motivated to not hit the delete button too soon.
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.

Recorded Oct 2010.
It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…

Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.
I had to go to a…

Just realised that I didn't make it obvious in the blurb... I was actually doing my utmost to sound like early ZZ Top once I'd realised what was happening. The vox and instrumental got performed and recorded with that in mind. So I'm kinda relieved/gratified that folks can spot the ZZ Top in there!!

Finally, at last... I've got something finished...
Been working on this for a few weeks.
A bit of a rocker... (and an aging lecherous one at that)
I got it as close as I could and then mixed it loud... I've over-cooked it slightly - but…
The other night I was sitting out watching a little fire in my backyard, and thinking about how useless it is to let the past dictate our present and future. This one is dedicated to all of us with relationships in our history that have no place…
The Good Old Days

One of those moments I had disappointed my lovely bride...
Tried to apologize with my guitar....hasn't worked yet...
I have a lonely guitar I keep beside my bed
"cause when my guitar's happy my lady's always sad?
The two don't get along…
I can relate... tho not nowadays... I don't have any lonely guitars, they're all among friends here (well, maybe the ones in the loft feel a bit left out of it) ... and she has a healthy relationship with them... but first wife...not so much! (and she's the one who married a gigging musician!!)
As I have said many times...I am happily married 99% of the time.
But this song was written in that 1% time frame? Jokingly.....
I disagree with what you see is always what you get
All I said is two little words, now my life is filled with…
This would be the ballad of Rick and Debbie, head over heals, how about you?
It was a simple plan take her out one time
But something went wrong with that plan of mine
I didn't fall I didn't fall I didn't fall in love--I took a tumble…
This track started out nice and peaceful, but accidentally grew until I was not able to control it anymore.
Lyrics:
All that we do
its just me and not you
always the same
keep your head in the game
## pre-chorus
and away, and away…
This song was written for those interested to hear a list of breakfast cereals.
Also, when you reverse "all brands kellogg's" you can hear "smell that in your pool" which makes an interesting title.

:) I wondered if that was the case - but then the "oh here's some words, whatever, at least they rhyme" often speak the loudest to the listeners! ... It's just gone 8am here. Just seen Mrs R off (her boss collects her - she's a nanny), I've been working since 6.15am... doesn't look like the sun is actually coming out today here!

Short but very sweet... These short ones encourage me to add all sorts of extra meaning myself as I'm listening. That's kinda what happens when we listen to songs anyway - no matter how much the lyrics are designed to lead us to certain conclusions or "points of view"... a song never really says what the songwriter thinks it says ... but these short ones encourage this "listener completes the song" process even more, they let my mind run free ... love it.
This didn't go as planned... I wrote this song for my wife Nicola while I was away in the UK working in March 2020... I excitedly played it to her from 3,500 miles away over the ether and.... I think she was expecting a ballad rather than a rather…

Cool track. But does she like it like this? What did you play to her originally? I suspect that creating a second version, closer to what she was expecting would be the safe thing to do.... LOL

Nice track, great vocals. Really dig this one
Wow! I just really love this. Amazing lyrics and the raw and measured pace of it is so compelling. Thanks for sharing the whole story of how this came to be as well. Keeps me motivated to not hit the delete button too soon.
Thanks Andy I appreciate you'd ears
Badass, yeah.
Rock & Roll!!
Brilliant great sound, top vocals, all round great track.
Now that's real tasty
wow, pro in all areas.
Nice production on this - powerful guitar sound. You sound American, not English! I've lived in the USA for 40 years and still sound English! Paul
Nice feel and a good vocal. Thanks for commenting on my song, Closer. Paul
Sweet, free swinging guitar sounds. Enviable production. Maybe not single material but still captivating enough!

Groooovy! :) I do hear some ZZ Top there, too!
Not done yet..... Really like this tune... awesome energy!
Southern fried boogie, a la ZZ Top. Delicious! Rock on!
Ah there it is.I was not logged in. Faved and My kind "o Boogie
Ohhh yah, my kind of Booogie. Wonder why I cant Fav? no button

The hardest thing to do I think is to write great rock songs. You have many my friend, real nice, and he sings too!

Oh yes. Fabulous sounds.
Oh yeah! Love this. Happy Birthday Maxine :)
WOW, this one is gorgeous. Song and vocal fabulous. And Greg's and playing and production isn't too shabby either!
Excellent song... I know the feeling.
Loving the sounds
Oh yeah, some might cool playing. Yep, deserves to be true. Let's say it is.
Nice one. Loving the sound of that strummed acoustic. So big and clean and alive. Cool song too.
I can relate... tho not nowadays... I don't have any lonely guitars, they're all among friends here (well, maybe the ones in the loft feel a bit left out of it) ... and she has a healthy relationship with them... but first wife...not so much! (and she's the one who married a gigging musician!!)
Nice one... and more cool guitars!
Some mighty fine guitars. And a cool song.
Nice one, cool sounds.
This one makes me chuckle...
At last, the prayers of breakfast cereal lovers the world over have been answered... they might be scared off by that title, though LOL

A really enjoyable 11 tracks. Cool sounds, inventive stuff going on. Nice one.
Yep, and this. Like it. OK that's my listening set up for a while... now let's see what work wants!!
Cool sounds. Wasn't sure what to expect reading your profile. But this makes a really good start to my day.
Digging the bass.
Cool track. But does she like it like this? What did you play to her originally? I suspect that creating a second version, closer to what she was expecting would be the safe thing to do.... LOL
