Acoustic blues. Recorded in 2005. I was trying to record something else, can't remember what, and the missus was going out. She had cyclist Lance Armstong's book, or was talking about it. Sounded like a great title for a song as well as his book…
First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

It was a quick demo recorded on my Boss Micro BR sometime in October or so last year (2011) while I was working on Shine.
It was a sort of "blow the cobwebs out…
A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.
I wrote this one in 2002 during the "dark years" lol. I've ummed and aahed over the years on whether to…

This is a song about questions, especially after experiencing the loss of someone special.....here are the lyrics:
Down past the bridge
By Saint Peter‘s church
She hums a prayer
Her eyes blue and bare
She’s longing for comfort…
It's definitely worth following Bethan around on this site...
Fine, fine song.
I love "She wants the truth... she says"
... ALL boys need teaching this (before they find out disasterously for themselves) lol
For my Wife
Liz and the boy are currently staying with her sister by the coast.
Just to catch some chill time after all that has happened this year.
They are gonna spend the school holidays up there.
Should be cool for the both of…
Back for another listen. It's early morning, I'm having a coffee and doing some emails and a bit of listening before disappearing back into the room with too many guitars.
The one I'm working on now isn't acoustic, but this is what I wanted to listen to first.
This is kinda uplifting and the right thing to start with :)
This song written by Mark Imsdahl..I found it over at Greg Connor's ...I liked it so much that I asked Greg and Mark if I could do an electric version of it and they agreed...i want to have Mark blow some harp on it when he gets back from vacation…
Right from the opening guitar notes...
(faved right then, didn't care what might follow!)
... stately stuff, superb.
I've been fave-ing a lot of stuff recently, this is one where I felt like I needed a "super-fave" button...
Love it.
In my late teens I was in a hard rock band and this was one of our songs. This recording is not the band but myself doing all the instruments and vocals. Our singer Kevin wrote the lyrics but I forgot some of the lines and adlibbed a bit of it…
Ah, I remember this kinda stuff. Don't listen to it much at all nowadays, but it's nice to hear every now and then. This reminds me of "Ultimate Sin" period Ozzy - can't remember who the guitarist on that is (probably someone really famous in the guitar world!).
And Ronnie James Dio - WHAT a voice that guy had...
I'm with captgene on this one - "Rocks"
This was from about 4 yrs ago thru a Guitar Center King of the blues online collaboration. I was using Guitar Rig Jimi Hendrix Octavia on this.....pretty hairy sound right there.

It's just past 8am on a Saturday morning, no work, thank goodness. Got my strong black coffee and cigarette...
... and this is the first thing I hear.
What a set-up for the day.
Fabulous...
Many thanks
Here's my second submission to the Stones Fest.i'd have liked a bit more time to play....but with four children under6 you take your time when you can or it don't get done...hope you enjoy as much as i did doing....another stripped Reg Version…

Aww yeah... fabulous
Not sure that I'm going to get involved in the fest myself, but if I do get time, this was the main one I wanted to do but I couldn't figure out how to approach it. I'd have wanted to strip the famous hook out as well, but I couldn't see what was left that I could make something of...
THIS on the other hand is exactly what's left and you've grabbed it by the short and curlies.
Fine job sir.
I took an old track that was a cover of Hear my train and dropped the vocals and added some new electric guitar tracks. I had just upgraded my recording setup and was testing some hardware and software when I did this. It has a punchy lil guitar…
Tasty.
Does sound very summery - almost enough to block out the rain going on here.
Maybe it's cos I'm a guitarist, but I felt no "rambling on" without the vocal. It's almost got an Allman Brothers vibe to it.
Please also listen to the second part of this track, "John Capulator".
This part represents first scenes of comics, John Capulator's appearing from the morning fog in a narrow alley, huge double chainsaw massacre near crowded underground station…
Please also listen to the first part of this track, "Man of the morning fog".
Lots of letters downstairs.
John Capulator is a comics character drawn by my uncle. This is his own description of JC:
well first we must know what John Capulator…
I was about to comment when I listened earlier but a bunch of other stuff happened.
Really like this. Very atmospheric. And like B says, some fantastic guitar all the way through. The lyrics weren't up when I first listened, and I wasn't really listening to the words, but the moods the music and vocal were painting really fits the words.
Nice one
Just realised I hadn't listened to this...
There's quite an amazing breadth of styles you handle. I feel like I do electric stuff and acoustic stuff, but it's all pretty much rock-pop with hints of blues, country, and folk in varying degrees. The only time I step out of this is if I approach the recording machine without a finished song and just wing it (rarely finish any of those though!).
Another nice one :-)
Well, it IS!
lyrics for my Italian friends:
We're gonna be there in your wake
mending the seams when they start to break
make you do what you said that you would
and other words that rhyme with good
once so close why let it go, baby…
She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard
when it's time to take tea
fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout
and they're always going back that way again
rents a flat with his sister…
Love this one.
Brilliant lyrics, and a gorgeous quirky performance.
I like how you fly by the seat of your pants on songs - you seem to be treading a thin line between genius and disaster. For my money you're falling off on the genius side with this one.
I always aim at solid and dependable - I've got a feeling I could learn something from your songs.
lol - that'll teach me to post before the owner has fixed the title etc...
Good excuse to give it a second listen. And reading the "About" now - yeah, I thought David Bowie when I was listening to "75e67 c5 etc" (actually, that might have been what made me think of David Bowie!)
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Commented on this one on the other side .....a powerhouse of a performance.....
..like listening to the precise inner workings of some vast energy producing generator - a real powerhouse performance!
Both music and voice phenomenal! Disgustingly rude and shamelessly suggestive lyrics - absolutely great! "Dastardly", yes, definitely! (Ace.)
Strong performance, love the music, really well done.
Rocks , well done.
Incredible! This has stanky guitars and dastardly vocals that I have not heard before. Great job all the way around! Encore! Encore!
Yah! This what I been cravin'. Excellent & original, all my favorite elements stirred not shakin. Double OH 5 Stars agent man.
Andrew . . . You have found the *SWEET SPOT* Impressive playing, and the vocal track is outstanding.
I love to write and sing songs like this myself. Totally killed it, man! Superb bluesy hard rock! Great guitar and vocal work my friend. =)
One for the collection. Saved and faved
Awesome vox man. Great foot tapper here. Drums sound excellent.
yah durty bugger!! braw tell yer maw!
Nice one,rockin' great guitars!
Great MC song. I ride myself, so I can definitely relate.
Great tune. Think I'll snag this one for my collection.
I like, I like, I like....Not only do you write great comments, but you write and play great music...wonderful tune!
Very nice song...I take it...will listen again))
Very nice sound drums...good wave. And I like Your voice lot)))

I keep coming back to this one as well. Such feel-good music.
And I need another listen to this as well. This is gorgeous, utterly gorgeous.

Short and sweet... but what a tone! Made me think of Jack Black in School of Rock - I think this one qualifies as a "face-melting solo" lol
And a new one from T as well! Bliss... This is wondrous. Love the "Three thousand pennies..." line.

I've listened to them in the wrong order! But, hey, it's fabulous. I see how this fits on the front of John Capulator.

It is! (ah and you've added an about, and stuck them in the title) SUPERB version
WOW! Brilliant version (it is what I think it is, isn't it?). If it isn't... er... brilliant anyway! Love it.
