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.

It wasn't "finished" in my mind - there was a certain amount of "orchestration" to come.
But I ended up liking the starkness of this version.

Acoustic tale recorded Christmas 2010.
I wrote it years ago. Even tried rehearsing it with the band I was in at the time. But I couldn't play it properly. It took several weeks of practicing DADGAD (never really used it in anger before) until…

Quite nice in this stripped down version ... love the subtle organ ... the simplicity adds to the sense of starkness and the melody is very effective with the words.

Excellent stuff guys.
@greg - You're not alone, it seems that us chaps hear a nice blues song about a train... and our spouses hear something else entirely.

this song from the Kingston Trio.

Song inspired by listening to Nick Cave and reading all the bad news in the newspapers. Enjoy.

another insane song. :P this one starts off soft and progresses to a more metal proggish song.

This is one of my favorite collaborations with Paul Lennon so far. I wrote the song with king of a bluesy feel, and then found a perfect marriage for the music with one of Paul's awesome tracks. Then we tinkered on it together to make it so…

Back for more :) This is so bouncy and growly, I love it! x
Poignant and more tender than Tiffany's Estate, methinks! G:)
Blown away! love this. no crits at all, just impressed. G:)
Enjoying the mix....well done once again.
AJ Grind and Growl. Oh I liked the twin guits and the riding crop lyric. Rocks
Well done. I missed this somehow.
Love it... Great growling vocal ....love at solo...as lady says another A.R masterpiece........
Killed it! Backing vocals always make me smile and harmonized guitar lines with bite are so damn sweet. Touchdown!
Another AR masterpiece. :)
Way to bark it out! I Love Love Love it. Great lyrics, Great lead guitar. You really drove it home!
Thanks for the comments on Macho Chihuahua. Coming from you it is really a compliment.
Naked is always good! Great song!
I like the guitar work. Great tune.
Quite nice in this stripped down version ... love the subtle organ ... the simplicity adds to the sense of starkness and the melody is very effective with the words.
Wow, i like this song. It's great ...
Great song. The way you sing it reminds me of an old Bloodrock tune, DOA. Best of luck.
Yes!!

Gorgeous vocal.
Oh very tasty. Very tasty indeed... It had me thinking Ronnie Lane? Excellent stuff.
Love it.

Sell-out!! Nice one, sounds really good.

Wow - you've been doing some monster vocals recently. This one's superb.
... I have absolutely no idea why I like it!
WOW! This is either sublime genius or utter twaddle. I choose the former... Love it.
Love it! Where's the rum?
Well that works.
Nice one guys :)
Aww - gorgeous song and delivery.
This is really good. Excellent lyrics and imagery, really good groove with just the vocal, guitar, and claps. And I love the chorus.
Flip! What a journey! There's everything in here.
Oooh yeh, like it.
Like it. You guys are making a very cool team - keep going.
Oh yes, play it some more! Instant fave :)
That's a nice mood. Paints pretty pictures.
Did I not fave this last time?? **FIXED**
