The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
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…

Great stuff, Andy! I don't remember how the old mix sounded (but I have it on some CD, so I'll probably compare it later) - but I do remember that I loved it. This new one is great too, so you definitely did not screw it. :)

I'll admit I'm listening to this again so I can hear those "Ahhhhh's". I would kill to be able to record background vocals like that! Well maybe not kill, but I'd do something seriously beyond my normal character!
Sweet!!

Such a heavy song and so well produced. I pushed the replay button twice so far.
The lyrical message is facinating.
The imagery just doesn't stop. In fact it suggests that I look around the corners.
The melodic presentation is very captivating.
Nice presentation Andrew!

THIS IS THE OLD YEURGH MIX - THERE IS ANOTHER ONE HIGHER UP THE LIST NOW, FULLY LOVED BY AR. THIS ONE IS LEFT HERE AS A MONUMENT TO SOMETHING OR OTHER (AND IN CASE YOU PREFER IT)
Acoustic ghost story. Recorded 2010.
Easter 2010 I decided…
Hmm, one that I missed at both ends - Love it! The mix is well beyond my pale ears. Sounds perfect to me! Clean even on PC speakers.
Oh, and a fab well crafted tune! Love the spooky "Ahhhs". That will get me every time!!

Cheers folks :)
This one is (out of what I've managed to record so far) actually my favourite AR song.
I am hopefully about to post, hopefully today, a remix of it - the mess-up on the EQ has always p1ssed me off so much. For me this version isn't anything like it should have been. What I've got sat upstairs on the desk waiting for me, same performances, is a lot closer...
But, that's just me, so I'm gonna leave this one here in case anyone prefers this approach (and I've got various links pointing at it that I can't be bothered to find and sort out!! lol)

One of my two contributions to a "Beatlesfest" we had over on songcrafters.org a few months back.
I still can't believe I covered this... having done it though, it feels like nothing is sacred. And, more worryingly, I feel I might possibly…
Hmm, for some reason I did not have you flagged as "Followed" - Fixed!
Remember this one, great fest and a stunning tune! The guitar crunch and the vocal harmonies make this the best!
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…
Trampled

A quickly improvised tune with some stream-of-consciousness lyrics. Written/recorded hastily in the dead of night on Tuesday 11/27 with a short overdub session on Thursday 11/29, when I should have been sleeping.
All basic tracks…
I was listening to M.TC here on Alonetone and got this idea for a song ...so out came the £16 special and here it is....hope you enjoy remember there's only 17 left now..........
I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…

While bombs falling here in Sderot/ISRAEL, decided to put headphones and record new song ... minimal mix (full coming)
When I called you on the telephone
You're buddy said that you're not home
But I hear voices
Are your cuddling down there underneath…
Feel the wind in my sails
Heading toward a brighter day
No more dark, dead end trails
Looks like sunshine all the way
Aint no stopping me now
Been a long time in the darkness
Bangin round where I can’t see
Smell the fresh air through the window…
I trust this song is an encouragement to you...we are not alone.
There is an intimate Divine closeness that we are invited into...moment by moment.
I am so thankful for this...
You are with me now
You are with me now
Within this sacred moment…
This was a one of the versions of Stay I was working on from a year and a half ago. I put a mic in a narrow hall way closet and went in recorded the guitar and vocal simultaneously. Hoping to get a break in the action and get one of my new songs…
Gene has woven his magic again around the music for this cover by Boston...and also done a hell of job on the mix too..Thanks Gene for letting me play....hope you enjoy
A song for all the rainbow people; musicians, artists and healers, to name but a few.
A true collaboration for Jip and Lady Jane as they meet up for the first time in 32 years and, together with Mike and his witty one liners, come up with this…

I used to work in an office.
White collar job just the same.
Order this and order that.
Put the Devil to shame.
Then one day the boss man
Asked me to change…
I must admit
I love fallen in love with you
It's not the easiest thing
but, what's a gal to do
I've been so good
I might even be a southern baptist
I must admit
I love fallen in love with you
I don't care that I'm just in the air

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Sorry it was the late '60's, check out 'One Way Ticket' Still love to be in your band Andy.................... What a groove ...
Yeh , had to play it again .... again ....
And now you remind me of, one of my all time heroes, Roy Harper... Speechless....
Ohh yes man, reminds me of Mckenna Mendelson Mainline, from the '70's. Love it !!!!
Oh Yeah, This is What I'm Talkin About. Got to Love The Blues.
Well -well- well, Andrew killed me with this Howlin' wolf oil can guitar duo. Nice man. Toe curlin' blues
Great stuff, Andy! I don't remember how the old mix sounded (but I have it on some CD, so I'll probably compare it later) - but I do remember that I loved it. This new one is great too, so you definitely did not screw it. :)
Such a wonderfully clear vocal! How very sad but beautifully done. The music has a timeless feel. Superb! Bethan
Diggin' the whole catalog - Nice to have it all in one place like this!
Thanks, bro - That's a great idea to change the individual vocals up. I tend to keep them similar in texture - Can't wait to try it!
I'll admit I'm listening to this again so I can hear those "Ahhhhh's". I would kill to be able to record background vocals like that! Well maybe not kill, but I'd do something seriously beyond my normal character! Sweet!!
Exquisite.....perfection.

The transition from ballad to spooky was/so cool. the chior went demonic and I got spooked , Thanx great ride.
i remember this one well andrew, will need to dig out the earlier version to compare. sounds wonderful as i recall the earlier take did.

Thats incredible....I dont know what genre....I dont really care...Winning!

Thank you for the comments. You made my day. jmt

Very tasty. Mighty fine acoustic sound... and that vocal... yes.
Love that vocal
Well, not heard their version (or even of them!), but this sounds fab, bum notes and all :)
Oh yes. Love it.
Lovely song and fine vocals.
Rock... and Roll
And this version too. Love the vocals.
Oh yeah... Love the words.
Well, that's kinda exactly what I needed to hear right now... Many thanks.
Like it. It's good when songs start up when you're not actually "trying to write a song".
Oh yeah - like this a lot.
Oh yeah. This one sneaks up on you.
Funky. Not sure it needs anymore windchimes than it has already, though... The chickens just made me feel hungry
Oh yeah. Cool geetars.
Nice one
Aha! Love it :)
Rockin stuff.
Absolutely KILLER! Love the harp and those vocals. What a track.
Woo... like this one a lot, straight from the off. There's some fab guitar going on. Love the solo.
Love it :)
