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…
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…

This is really good stuff. Songwriting firmly placed in late 70's art rock/pop, which is a very good place to be, if you ask me. Contemporary, skilled production makes for a tasty sound palette and a very enjoyable listening experience. Bravo!
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…

I dig the classic flavor of this one. Some choice bass runs. Groovy lyrics. Great vocal delivery. Superb mix-down skills. Thanks for checking out "niaR" on my Gene Eric Mann profile. Hear it as "Rain" on my Nightmoth profile. Rock on!
Pop-rock tale about a character in a novel that I fancied. Recorded in 2009 on a Boss MBR.

**Sooner or Later - A A J Russe**
Theres a crazy girl
Looks about my age
Hiding out on the second page
Waiting for the story to unfold…
I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…

A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

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…
So come down, and fade away,
The lights are still hanging from last holidays.
And the place in the dark, we'd occupy,
Is leaving my heart, feeling nullified.
So slow down, and walk with me,
Dark empty lanes, under heavy leafless trees…
Wow, apparently I've listened to this before, but I don't remember... (many thanks to galinka's recent favourites for finding it again :) )
Good song and vocals and all... but on this listen, it's striking me that those guitars are amazing.
Every 3 years, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America (ELCA) asks teens from across the country to meet up in a city to worship, fellowship, learn, and serve. This year, it was New Orleans. 33000 youth gathered together to demonstrate God…
Superb - love the chorus.
I'm actually one of the ones who heard but decided not to listen. But I can hear that this song and performance express the message almost perfectly.
Beautiful song :)
I wrote this music and realised that what I had created sounded like Air on the G String (BWV 1068) by J S Bach. It's not finished (I will re-record it).
I hadn't read the about while I was listening, and I was thinking the title must be a pun...
Love it (the track and the title). Looking forward to hearing the finished version.
Wow.
I was listening to your stuff the other day. Completely unlike anything I'm exploring, but something was grabbing me.
Hearing this new one made me click "Follow" :)
This song's about why sometimes you have to live your life, even if other people don't like it. Yeah, and I like Shakespeare too.
LYRICS:
I don't know why you won't speak to me
I could use a little sympathy
I don't know why there must be…
So, I'll drink up, beautiful,
I'll leave bottles, up and down the coast,
When I get to that light house,
I'll burn it down, and laugh.
Skeletons rise up to meet me,
In a place where the waves touch the beach,
And hollowed bones, broken…
Dug up another old one. Still trying to some new songs sorted, can't seem to get into gear. Old age ???? Oh by the way, just a piece of fiction, me & the old gal is on 38yrs of marriage !!!! You less for murder !!!!!!!!!
Might be a piece a fiction, but I've got one of those pieces of paper somewhere ("it says right here we're not married anymore"), and this kind of sums up some of the emotions that such a piece of paper evokes... lol
Nice song :)

So the gypsies dance to Deep Purple then? Like this one a lot.

Yep, back for another listen. Fabulous, stark, and beautiful.
