I wrote this little ditty back in May, did an acoustic demo and then played it to one or two people. I always meant to do something a bit more, er, "expansive" with the thing... So I stuck it in the corner for a bit and forgot about it.
Been…
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…
Well, here we go then...

Yeah you know what it is that I want

How many times did you wonder whether I would dare?
Oh never mind...

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…
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…

Really like this vocal delivery also. And very clever lyrics considering the *actual* story!

This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…
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…
This is one of the many songs going round my head from when I was young. No idea whose version I heard and used to sing along to back then, but it was written by Larry Collins and Alex Harvey.
(EDIT: Done some research. It was Dottie West's…
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…
James said it: "Oh yeah..."
I've been listening a lot to the original recently, and this version's got the vibe. I'd love to hear a mix that you're happier with.
Oh, and some FINE harp playing.
Nice feel and gorgeous vocals. Nice one. And jingles/tingles at the end :-)
Have you guys got more sunshine than the rest of us? That's two tracks with a really summery vibe. How have you managed to summon that up? I'm frozen and shivering here...
Had this one written before the end of year. Finally hit the record button a couple of weeks ago with some electric rythym guitar tracks and built it from there. I was having a problem getting the song to mix right and had an idea to try a different…
Mark wrote the lyrics after waking up with them in his head. He didn't know what to do with them so sent them, entitled If I Say, to Lady Jane to play with. Then Jip sent some music, called Jozzy, to Lady Jane to play with. Being a lazy mare…
Music: Jip
Verse lyrics: Mark Goldsack
Chorus lyrics: Lady Jane
Lead recorder: Lady Jane
Vocals: Lady Jane
A wonderful collaboration that came about by Jip and Mark sending me music/lyrics totally independently and me having a eureka…
I've been messing around playing guitar from time to time... I came up with some progressions and thought maybe I should lay down some tracks since I haven't posted in a while. I found the beginnings of some lyrics I had jotted on my iPhone and…
I just acquired a five string banjo. It was broken and I did a lot of work to it. It is now playable, though I'm waiting on some parts (the 5th string tuner is no good so it only has 4 strings, and I have to tune of of those 4 using vise grips…
Yes - Like it. Really works like this.
I want to get a banjo, but I'm filled with trepidation over what sort to get - so I keep putting it off.
This has re-awakened the urge.
This is one that I started with a synth progression and over the week it grew....
Everything is in there but the kitchen sink I think. Used midi for GB synth sounds, choirs, bass, Kontakt strings and organ, piano,horns, sax lab for sax, godin…

Music and Lyrics by OsCKilO 2013
I had never seen a place so cold...
Glad I don't live there any more.
Happy that I like the simple life...
Bright lights.
Sun and Moon.
Any Star that lead away from you.
Now I move on, not moved…
Just me and my acoustic.
I've just learned how to record both at the same time.
I didn't know this song the day before this recording.
It was done in one take, with dodgy guitar playing, wrong lyrics and sore throat :)
from the jail cell came a song from the condemned .......

i was a warrior from mars
she look in to my eyes

A collab with the Reverend Mike has done such a great job on the backer it was a pleasure to sing to ......Hope you enjoy.....
Medusa (Lyrics)
Watch out for Medusa cause she’ll turn your heart to stone
She got the face of angel but eyes of…
No it's not the Zep track....it's a bit of blues Reg style thinking of those poor folk who survived the levee breaking in New Orleans but had nothing and had lost loved ones.......
When the Levee Breaks (Lyrics)
oh She is beautiful even dressed…
This is the title track off my second album. That means it's not a new track, or recording. It was written in summer of 2012 and recorded around October or November of that year. But it had not been put up here and I thought I would share it…
