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.

..dynamic vocal and slowed down bluesy essence..don't know why you bother with all the other instrumentation when you breath life into a song the way you do with just a bit of plunkin' 'n' gruntin' ..excellent..

This one started out one morning several weeks ago when the sun was still shining...
If it's as wet and dark as it is here, just close your eyes, I'm sure you can imagine it if you try hard enough...
Lollies, chips, and beer…
Here we go, a tender little rocker from the broom-cupboard...
A tale of regrets and wotnots.

Yep, I was kind of going for 70s (early-mid 70s Slade was in my mind - bass and vocals, the rest fits where it can). I actually feared I had the drums TOO upfront for that!! lol
I tried and failed with a lot of percussion too - I felt it needed it. There's some tambourine, and some voices doing shaker noises - but none of it was good enough to come too high in the mix. What I really wanted was some clapping, but that didn't work at all!

70's rock all down the line. I love the background vocals and all the guitar work.
I think the drums could be more upfront, and I can imagine some percussion too. That would be the icing on the cake.
But anyway, a great song! Very well done.
This one is a bit off the beaten path for me, but was fun to record. It has some great tonal coloring happening throughout, so take a listen. See if you can guess what it's about...
I played this one fairly straight. It still sounds a lot like the raw 30 second idea I recorded on my phone in an elevator in Chicago in early Feb of 2010 and discovered this RPM season. It's not about what you think it is.
This song sounds like a lonely road by the beach in the late summer/early fall. Try it out when the weather is cooperating with you. Then, reflect on who you are.
Sometimes we decide to do things just to find that it takes more than making a decision to actually do things.
WASTED TEARS
There'll be no wasted tears running down my cheek
There'll be no wasted cries in my troubled sleep
No wasted hours…

Don't let it go, don't let it burn out so slow; like a bar of soap in your match-jar.
Cause even when things hurt the most, don't let it go.
And when the wick burns out, when your house remains a parsed kind of fall.
When the rambling chords…
This one's a grower. Took me a couple of listens.
Love how your guitar playing seems to be changing. I like the percussive guitar styles you've used as well (in fact, I've been trying to figure out how to use them myself - not much success yet!) so don't drop them altogether!
Facebook is a horrible thing. The real world keeps intruding into the perfectly peaceful virtual world.

A song about, well, s**t happens, but all in all, it's alright. Thanks to TwoRegs (singing), Freight Drive Reprobate (singing and harmonica)and Lady Jane (Singing in posh mode). Hope you like.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Nice!
Passionate, emotional, gripping, and huge - all words found in my dictionary to describe this. Thanks, Andrew. G:)
Great vocals! and a real FEEL version of a great tune ...
a really really nice retelling of a great song!! your vocal and playing is so rich
Epic, your vocals are quite theatrical (in a good way) :)
Back again....
This would bring the room down! Set it on fire! Killer!

One of my favorite songs too! I like how you belted it out. That's the ticket. You can feel the grit in there. Well Done!
Epicly awesome! Great hook! Great lines! No stinker! G:)
Getting into the groove. Quality across the board! Cheers, A! G:)

Her hunting crop....love the lyrics...;)

Hey, really rocking tune! I love the leads especially the dueling guitars. Great melody and nice backing vox.
Awesome!
Ahhh yes.

That is one gorgeous guitar sound.
Monstrously good. Shivers down the spine good.
Aw... just peachy. You make backing vox sound just so effortless. And that's a cool guitar break, very cool.
And then the sudden change! lol (I thought it was someone else's track! - but then my friends the geetars came back)
Gnarly geetars... Like it :)
Woo - lots happening in here. Cool sounds. Nice one.
That's a gorgeous sound.
Heartfelt stuff. Very thought provoking...
Yep :)
Why have I not listened to this before???? Brilliant.
This is fabulous stuff. Really inventive playing and writing, and a superb voice on top of it all. I shall be back for more.
Wow, and it was live!
Flip! I like what you folks are doing.
Woo! This sounds good.
Crazy stuff! Nice one.

Oh yeah, like it. Love the big sound you get with acoustic arrangements.
Oh yeah, this is a real cool track. Love it.
Nice one. Very nice one.
Fantabulous. Wonderful. Superb. One of those "need a SUPER-FAVE button" tracks.
