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…

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.

Ahhhh....good to see u back in the forum! Love the light touch and well placed notes. Soulful and thoughtful lyrics. Many listens and likes for this gem.

lol - it seems to start off with the same sentiment in the vocal as the Nod's did... and then it starts feeling increasingly sinister... by the end, I thoroughly pitied the poor person you're singing to. Perhaps they really ought to consider a restraining order!!
Brilliant.
This salty man's a salty dog
His travels have left him weary
Got boots all lined up at the door
He's must be carrying stones again...
His salty wife waits on salty shores
Tending the child she carries
Washing his wounds with olive soap…
At the end of this road
Red rock and blue skies
And the wind calls
Plant your roots in the ground
And the clean air that the trees share
You can't hear a sound
Deep in the heart of it all
Morning dew at the sunrise
Covered in fog
Fires…
Listening to all your stuff (after your clear out) while I'm working. This one really jumped out at me and brought me over to comment (loving it all though!)
Ernesto Cavallini was considered the foremost Italian clarinetist of the 19th century. His playing was admired by both Gioachino Rossini and Giuseppe Verdi. He was in the orchestra that premiered four of Verdi’s operas at the La Scala opera…
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach was the second of three sons of Johann Sebastian Bach. He was a crucial composer in the transition from the Baroque and Classical periods in music, directly influencing Mozart and Haydn, while retaining Baroque elements…

Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, but today is a gift.

I can feel the changes from within

this is my take on Joe Bonamassa's version of Blind Faith's "Had To Cry today"
a much shorter version...just wanted to record that cool lick and am trying to work on my vocals ... oh well ..what a time to try to learn to sing at my age...63 next…
Well heres the ballad of the younger other Reg who has found himself in trouble trying to do a deal with the devil.....why didn't he listen?.....Reg told him not to trust him............I got the acoustic out for this one and a little guitar fx…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Think you are one of the most unique artists I've come across on Alonetone. I appreciate your encouragement. Best of luck. H Music
Lovely chord sequences, tender stuff. Nice.
Unbelievable quality yet again, can't seem to get this out of my head for the past couple of days...and that's a very good thing!
Dynamic. Top stuff once again.
Oh yes Andrew, that's the Bees Knees, to my ear's a No. 1 for Joe Cocker
Rockin' good
Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose - surely one of the greatest lines every written, great version.
This is my favourite ever AR track. Your vocal is amazing, and the song-writing, superb. -Tess
Obviously brilliant. -Tess
Yes,yes, yes, Soul is alive Andrew. Ill download and play this one for Cindy and Sierra.
Great chord changes and build ups. Well done Andrew! ________________________________________ I had to go look up the word *"Dirge"*. I like hanging out with people who are smarter than me.
A magical voice, that draws you in & fills your soul. Love this track. w;-)
Another soulful, fabulous vocal ! Another fabulous track! w;-)

What a soulful vocal! Excellent track! w;-)
What a universal little scene. Well told. Every little boy has to deal with that uncertainty. Will she? Sad it never changes for so many of us.
Pensive, maybe. But not dirgy. Just a little more voice in the mix please.
Nice.
Well done.
Wonderful, as always, and I just remembered the story behind this one! Great dirge; glad you're back x

Very echo-y kitchen you got there... :) Wonderful version.
Aww... superb. Gorgeous and fluffy, and then... uh-oh!! "Today is the day that it all went wrong" Yep... hope you cleaned up afterwards...
Yep

Oh yeah! Big Slade fan here... and this does not disappoint. Excellent version.
Nice one.
Oh, and while I'm commenting - love the riffing over the sparse background on this. Simple and powerful.
Listening to all your stuff (after your clear out) while I'm working. This one really jumped out at me and brought me over to comment (loving it all though!)
Yes. Wonderful, as ever :)
And this one. And I'm liking the information you give with the tracks. Looking forward to more.
Oh... monstrously good to listen to! Love it.
Oooh yeah. Liking your sounds :)
Wonderful stuff.
Nice one. Simple and gorgeous.
Fine version chaps. I had me doubts... but it's turned out nice.
Well, that was very enjoyable. Some very tasty stuff in there guys.
I didn't realise how much I was enjoying this until it ended. Mightily good stuff.
Oh yeah, love it
But this one just shades it for me...
I also like 'em both...
