The dark groove I'm diggin'! The vocals rule! Fantastic lyrics, fitting righteously with the music. You know how to set, execute and deliver a mood! The guitar work is fabulous, and you handle on the Psychedelic is on par with the masters of the genre!
Acoustic love song. Written and recorded between Christmas 2010 and the New Year.
I'd just finished recording Elizabeth's Room and was tooling up to record a pop-rock song when this little beast popped out of nowhere, almost perfectly formed…
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. Simple yet brilliant, laid-back yet rich and bold. Petite and powerful. You've a rare gift, a special talent. You successfully and gorgeously pulled-off recording a lullaby for adults and lovers!
Well, here we go then...

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…

Found this little chappie while I was preparing my latest original for loading.
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.

So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…

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.

This is a remix of this song.
It was recorded in 2010, and I was in a hurry to post it elsewhere because I'm so fond of the song itself. But I've always hated the old mix - I lost the essence of the guitars and choirs during mastering because…
Just a run through in the cellar that turned out pretty cool til the end. I lost my way on the mandolin. The bass track was laid down later. Bless him for trying keep up with the trash I played at the end.
I'm not really sure what the lyrics mean, but I was happy that it would somewhat fit a long the other noises.
This track is the result of an experiment recording different drum sets on top of each other.
There's some gorgeous guitar sounds sneaking around on this. Nice one. I can relate to the lyric... although I don't actually drink milk... or use it my coffee... or... but I do have to buy it for my wife... so ,yeah.
Five songs finished (there will be 11, I think) and as of right now this kid is the single... if I were actually releasing this and needed to release a single... which I'm not.
I also think 90 beats per minute is as fast as any of the songs…
I was gonna do the vacuum cleaning now I've finished work... think I'll listen to this new album instead!! Seems more worthwhile somehow... LOL ... I'm sure the missus will understand :)

Love the lyrics.
The opening vox kill me. Powerful!
The dark groove I'm diggin'! The vocals rule! Fantastic lyrics, fitting righteously with the music. You know how to set, execute and deliver a mood! The guitar work is fabulous, and you handle on the Psychedelic is on par with the masters of the genre!

And this one is even weirder!! Cool. OK... I'm gonna follow you and check out some more of your stuff :)
Not sure what to make of this ... but I love it!
Wow... I've got a recording somewhere of Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull getting lost on a mandolin - he swears a lot more! ... this track's very cool.
It feels French to me... In a "Cote de Boeuf, vin rouge, frites, fromagerie, lescargot, ou est le bidet" kinda way
I wanted more when it stopped.
Big smile on my face - don't know why, exactly... but yes, the lyrics do fit the other noises.
That was fabulous - cool title too.
Oh WOWWWW... and what guitars they are. I'm kinda guitar focused too... and this is gorgeous.
This too. Looking forward to hearing more.
This made me smile.

Cool groove. Loving those wah leads.
Mighty cool album. Loved it.
Woo! This is different... slightly unsettling verses...cool stuff
Yep. Rocking.
Oh wow, and this one. DIgging the 50s/60s rock thing going on. Awww and that guitar break...
I knew I was right...

Woof! Love the Stones vibe. This rocks.
You possibly shouldn't trust my judgement, though... In the 90s, I used to listen to "The Wall" to cheer myself up!!!
