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…

Makes me want to get out my blues harp and jam...

This was well worth the wait. Superb! I love the reference to what is current these days....hint hint..I like the entrance of the keys and organ at 2:42, masterful. Love it.

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…
Recorded Oct 2010.
It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…
Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
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…

I like, I like this song! Great vibe, lyrics...your wife must be lovely. And the lyrics here so I can sing along confidently...great for twiddling along to on guitar too!;-)
A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

Based on a poem by William Sharp that I found while researching my family history.
The poem has been put to music once already, by one Christopher Goldsack, http://www.sundown.pair.com/Sharp/piratepoem.htm but I wanted to put my own little…
This is a real grower. I appreciated it when you first posted it, but it didn't grab me personally - i was in a different place, I guess.
But listening again today - woo... I been grabbed :)
My wife got me a mandolin for either Christmas or a birthday and I think this was one of the first songs I wrote on it.
My Father
Here in this foreign land
The Lord God takes my hand
One day - the Promised Land
And no more I’ll cry…
This song comes from comparing my behavior to that of my children. And I have found out that history does indeed repeat itself.
Thanks for stopping by to listen. I'll post the lyrics as soon as I find them.
ER
Really enjoyable 3/4 hour listening to your stuff so far - stopped me going and sorting out the rhythm section on the thing I'm working on (gave me some ideas though!)
Looking forward to hearing more :)
I cried a river
lot's of songs and tears have been named and shed by this same title
we did a little Micheal Jackson from J5 days 70's
recorded in LA by Brian Clark and Amit Bustan
This is the one that brought me in. I saw "Achilles Last Stand" on the recently posted and thought "you gotta be kidding me?!!" lol
I didn't even realise it was a live recording first time (on the naff PC speakers).
FABULOUS version - and now I know you can do those vocals live.
Tell the rest of the guys "WOW!" as well :)
Another fabulous vocal.
You guys have definitely got something going for me. Songs, superb arrangements, musicianship, your voice on top...
Classy emotional stuff.
Summer Sun
Sitting in the summer sun
The heat warms the soul
Sitting reminiscing
Got no particular place go
life is all around me
The motion of the birds and bees
Is like heaven to me
Heaven to me
I lay out in an open field
Making…

I love the "broken rhythm" riff under the "I'm tired of all your broken promises". And another of those vocals...
Another superb vocal.
