New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
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.

This is an oldie. Recorded in 2005. It was the first recording I finished on a DAW, but I'd played it a lot in the last band I was in (around the turn of the century). I think it was written in the mid 90s. It's about one of the casualties of…
One of my two contributions to a "Beatlesfest" we had over on songcrafters.org a few months back.
I still can't believe I covered this... having done it though, it feels like nothing is sacred. And, more worryingly, I feel I might possibly…
This is one of the things I was fiddling with when I sang Me and Bobby McGee as a distraction last week.
I'm working on finding out how to get acoustic stuff down consistently and effectively within the confines of what I've got here - I wasn…

Nice acoustic. Enjoying the guitar playing and the vocal accompaniment. The mix sounds great, and it took me half way through the song to realize that there were no drums. Like the lyrics, Thoroughly enjoyed.
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…

Baby can you here the thunder tonite?
Baby can you here the rain coming down, down?
Lately Ive been dreaming of you lying next to me and I realise your gone
And I cant seem to find

I'm playing catch up here... How did I miss this??!!
This is mighty fine. Faved from the opening guitars - and the rest of the track lived right up to it.
Gorgeous sounds.
When I read the album blurb, I was wondering what the effect would be from the Rock/Acoustic split.
It's fab! Brilliant transition, and now i'm in another place but still emotionally in the same album.
A little ditty i recorded at the weekend and then sent off to the Mighty Two Regs to strut his stuff all over and man that boy can sing!!!
Cheers Reg,your a star!!!
When Jimmy was little he couldn’t stand still
He had pepper in his britches
Jimmy was so funny. We threw him lots of money.
He kept us all in stitches
Jimmy was a thumper. A shadow humper.
He scratched it where it itches
Jimmy was a…
I’ll tell you the truth. I’ve been out of control
They took away my blanket. Put me out in the cold.
Even Miami’s got ice on the ground
Man said, “You be a good boy and get out of my town.”
I’d just got to sleep when they turned on the…
I heard the track on Geas's RPM album and thought i would try to add a story to the instrumental...i then sent it over for Geas to mix so here it is...
the wind did howled
across the desolate plain
it sang out it’s song in desperate pain…

Aww crumbs... Those guitars sound utterly fabulous. Tasty organ going with it too. Love it.
Have you remixed since the "vocals are low" comments? Because I'm getting plenty :)

Fine album. Flows nicely. Really enjoyed it :)
Nice one :)
I was wondering where this was! Isn't it a different mix? Feels slightly different now - mebbe I'm more awake! Fab!
What a fabulous set of songs!
This is a gorgeous song.

Oh YES
Ha! Ha! *love* it...
Aww - this album's working really well for me.
*Shivers down the back of the neck* Brilliant stuff
Woo, what an opening... hang on, I need to switch to the good speakers!! Love it.
Second FDR/2Regs I've heard tonight - you guys is rocking!! It's party time now (Sunday roast and a bottle of wine, anyway!)
And this... love how it hangs together.
Tasty.
Oh yes. LIKE IT. Love the chorus.
Nice one chaps
WOW! I've been away a long time... I'd never have predicted you'd come out with something like this - love all the vocals.
