coool guitar! nicely-pitched vox. humour, I like. nice progression. poignant and heartfelt. stopping listening before the end, as I don't want to cry at it. G:) thank you.

What beautiful melody . ....a great image is formed from you're lyrics....you must have looked like little lord fontalroy in you suit and shiny shoes I know I did when we went to the family occasions ....a beauty of a song....

That is an incredible tune. Lyrically excellent! I love the riff. Those acoustics sound perfecto! Short but sweet, makes u want to hear more. Great Andrew :).
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

One of the first songs I ever wrote... When we bought our first house, we had a nice big back yard on a 1/3 acre lot... With the train tracks just on the other side of the back fence.
The second of two versions of Keith Landry's great song.

Hi all. I am new to all this. I have been writing lyrics for many years and have done nothing with them, until now. Thanks to Lady Jane , I will be putting these projects to life.All original stuff. Symphony in me is just a bit of fun, unmastered…
I tend to name my tracks off of internet memes and science fiction writers/books when I cannot think of a song. This one is named after a series of excellent books by Harry Harrison entitled Deathworld. Seriously. Go read them.
Anyhow the…
That's a cool groove.
Welcome. Yep, this is the place to put your stuff. One of the things I love about it is that I end up hearing and enjoying stuff that I wouldn't normally search out... like this! lol
Looking forward to hearing more
I boarded up windows,
Fixed the cracks on my sills
And I, bought a new pair of scissors,
Cut away scattered seams,' so it seems
I took a vacation,
Away from the dark creaks, floor boards in my eyes
And it's been a long, been a long, been…
I almost faved it on the title alone before listening. Superb title.
And the song doesn't let it down... knew it wouldn't...
I love the groove. And how your vocal works that reverb in the verses.
This is my attempt at incorporating some classical instrumentation with a song ... I even tried singing a bit of opera ... well one bar of deep "la la's" LOL. Used my Godin acoustic electric for this one.
Thanks for listening
The second word
Then from the three.
The middle stands out.
Second from I.

Epic and superb.
Inspired and inspiring - nice one, very nice one.
When I started I looked at 18:42 and thought "you've gotta be kidding me!!". But I've been entranced from one end to the other... Off to part two now.
Okay Andrew R. , this ones for you bud. Had a little fun with it in the intro. That was the surprise.
I put the bass line down and arranged the drums Saturday morning and returned later that night about 10:00 pm . I worked until 2 am and laid…
YESSIRREEE!
This is the bizness. I knew you could pull it off :)
Particularly love the bridges ("That's why") and how they slam into the chorus. Always loved those bits...
And the solo, and the guitar on the last chorus/out - sounds like you've got walls of plexis rattling the control room windows.
... and lol at sticking EXP on the front of it.
This one needs a FAVE of the FAVES button.
I have always loved jazz and blues but never really had the chops to really play jazz. But I can feel it and I tried to create that feel with this tune using my sweet old 63 jazzmaster. This was also an experiment in doing a complete time change…
Hello I'm Taylor and this is my first single. I wrote this back in 2011 without intention of releasing it, but after my best friend committed suicide in February of 2012, I decided to release it and dedicate it to him. So this is for you, David.
For UK people who liked the Testcard in the 70's. Youtube vid attached. Started as a project, sent to Lady Jane who did her magic. Ummed and Arrred about it, and eventually thought "just upload". Enjoy.

Thought I'd better listen to the original after hearing Colin Garvey's covers of it. Yep, I can see why he went for it. Nice one.
Like both versions. But, with the mood I'm in, this one edges it for me at the moment. And you're right, it's a great song.
Rocking stuff.
Yep, liking the sounds you're making :)

Woo, big sound with just acoustics. Really effective.
Fantastic. Lovely arrangement, song, vocal, everything... Nice one.
