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
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 is "Bonus Hockey" Andrew!!! I love the anticipation a slide guitar creates. Reminds me of the solo acoustic live version of "Your Bright Baby Blues" by Jackson Browne.

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…

Yes, I love it. The subtle/strong cadences switch around enough to easily glide through 4+ minutes. Well done with that - I'm inspired to try something lengthy that doesn't sound like it has filler in it.
The heart of the song's meaning kept you from hitting the delete button - That's what makes me like it even more!

Apologies to George but I love the song. Its shocking to find out that Paul and John rejected it until George dragged Eric to the studio one day. Imagine the White Album without this...
no effects of any type on this for good or ill.
The verse and the chorus are pretty much the same thing except the chorus is louder and heavier. I consider that a gimmick and a bit of a cheat, but I very often really like the way it works out. Shoot me.
The lyrics are about being afraid…
Well I seem to have a few songs with dreams and oceans in them. But then I do live on the ocean.... and I do dream ... daydream. I bought a cheap yamaha acoustic guitar from a garage sale for $50 and decided to try recording a song with it. I…
I thought going into 50/90 that I would need to do some quick recordings of really simple arrangements. Maybe just acoustic guitar and voice. Nope, not really.
This isn't meant as filler. This idea is something I noodle on almost every…
You can probably interpret this song in a few ways, but the inspiration was based on a move across the country to start a new life. I find there's an interesting tension between settling into your new home and getting use to a new environment…
The verse is a 12-bar blues phrase, but the rest of the song isn't. Clever? Probably not. The lyrics are kind of about work stress, but maybe not completely. I can't really tell anymore. The guitars are all Stratocaster.
Mixed up confused…
Something tells me I'll be mixing this one again soon.
The lyrics here are specifically about 9/11, but I guess it would apply to any major event. I was just listening to the accounts of people who were there at the time and comparing their…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Okay....yes I just read that you had resurrected "Lucy" from snuggly guitar case. Nice:)
Rockin tune. Yes, I agree..has a ZZ vibe for sure. Sounds like a Les Paul standard????
I dig this arrangement as well. :) I like the demo's intimate feel.
This is "Bonus Hockey" Andrew!!! I love the anticipation a slide guitar creates. Reminds me of the solo acoustic live version of "Your Bright Baby Blues" by Jackson Browne.
I hear the Rev Billy Gibbons
I think Rick left some comments on songs of mine, but we never really talked to each other. What a pity to know that we never will.
Another great song!
Very well done!
cool beans... nice structure, very clean. I don't like throwing out comparisons but it feels Three Dog Night-ish!

Another gem A
Nice tribute... really like this version too.
Pure and beautifully performed ....
Like it raw and cool
ohhhh, slide me sad. Great tortured vocal I read the chat about the bass line. I will try to play along to better get the idea.
Solid track Andrew. Top notch.
Amazing. Thanks for posting this version too...
Raw talent is what this shows.
ain't that true.......love it!!
Like it - nice instruments and production.
Comments made by Andrew Russe
And this one too, like it :)
That works in a strangely hypnotic kind of way. Nice one.
Cool version! Liking the vocals.
One of my favourite songs too. Nice version.
Oh good grief. Fabulous sound and playing. I'm getting used to this 1 minute business as well (just!)
Well that works! :)
Fabulous. Still loving that telecaster.
Free beer? I'm in :-) Wow... this rocks!
Flip, that works... I wouldn't have thought putting drums on afterwards (with no click) would be the easiest option.
Aww, gorgeous sounds. And, actually, I can't hear that it's a cheap guitar. Sounds fabulous.
Love it. How did you get the bass sound? Please don't tell me you actually have an acoustic double-bass... (not allowed one here!!)
Wow - wot a sound... I was knackered by the end! Loved the burp
Very tasty. I always start in an acoustic mood, and then something just comes over me and I get all Roy Thomas-Baker about it...
Like the organic feel... a lot.
Trippy - like it :) You got drums!!! *jealous* I'm not allowed them - no space in Mrs R's office/writing-room, apparently...
And another nice one... you're a LOT more productive than I am!! At least I've got some time for doing some listening now...
Nice one :-)
Wa-ay too short though!!
Go Jimi! :-)
Oh yes, nice one.
