Lovely stuff, Mr Russe. Your voice is sounding very cool indeed. Great control - great story telling, showed off perfectly in this stripped down arrangement.

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…

Really nice song Andy, I've often thought that one man and a guitar is the hardest thing to put over. There's nowhere to hide. No need to worry about this. If I had only read the lyrics it would be enough, to have them to music is a bonus.

It's three mics. A Rode NT1000 large condensor for the vocal. The guitar had two SM57s on it, one at the 12th fret, one just below the bridge, panned hard left and right.
If I had more condensors I'd use them on the guitar - when I track things separately I always use the Rode on an acoustic (unless it's a resonator, that pushes a condensor too hard) - using the 57s like this seems to produce are fair amount of hiss!

#RPM Challenge 2013#
Oh it caught me by surprise
I Looked into your pretty eyes
Nothing more than a simple kiss
And a moment like this
We don’t need no fancy cars
Diamond Rings that shine like stars
You never really asked for more
Than moments…

A song that I wrote in the mid-90s, became a bigger number when my band 'Y' took it into the studio and we tightened it up a notch. Proud of this one (as of all of my babies) G:)
The story is of the actor on the stage...
A story of conflict between a couple. I played the part of the male, Shelagh (I think) was herself. Came together in the studio and was a favourite live.
Here's number 08 in the saga of Reg……………..Reg has been so down since he stopped drinking…….he feels so alone he's gone and done something stupid…..but luckily he was found by the postman unconscious on the steps leading to his bedsit….the postman…
For the grandchildren, when I get some!
Moonbee started life as a doodle, then he was turned into a little story, then a song!
This is Part 1 of the series - I have no idea how many there will be in total!

Here 's a new one from the Kite boys. It's not been floating around too long, it's been quite a quick one from the moment that Tim dropped a little gem into our in boxes.

This is a little ditty I did for a local songwriting group I'm in. The prompt was "No instruments" and a previous prompt was "One chord only", so I combined the two.
The haikus were written for a creativity group I'm in, so I used them for…

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
This is sweet!!!! Real sweet!!!!!!!
1 voice and 1 guitar. Always the best.

Perfect to start the day. Thank you.
Apllause......beautiful command. I could here your voice in film music. Great once again AR.

Comments made by Andrew Russe
Faved from the intro... Sounded so sweet, and the lyrics looked good... luckily the track lived up to it all! Lovely song. Yep, winner.
Oh yeah, very well put together. Love that bass groove holding it down.
Nice one. Big vox!
lol - like it
Yep...
One of my (many!) favourite songs. Nice performance.
Nice one. This thing better have a happy ending!!
Wonderful video. Reminded me that I haven't watched all of my Noggin the Nog DVD yet.
Like this a lot.
Well ole Reg certainly is in a bad way... Nice one, love the vocal on this.
Ooo yeah...
Aw this is just gorgeous. Good song well delivered - and some mighty fine arranging, love the sound.
Cool! Rockin and janglin all at the same time. Like it a lot.
Ha! Ha! Laughing out loud here. Brilliant. And a fine acoustic sound, and the slide work is just gorgeous.
When I read the "about" I thought "uh-oh, it ain't gonna grab me" BUT! It's fab, love it :-)
Yeah, slightly different, but still Reg. Like it.
I can hear The Who too on this. Like it. Love the groove.
Oh yeah, what a sound. No messin, couple of guitars and bass... and wow
Ah... another goodie. Vocal, piano, and cello - what a fine combo they make.
Nice one T. Loving that guitar sound
