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…

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. :)

Looks about my age

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!!

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…
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…
Reg crawled out of his bunker and wandered down the hill where Jip 1965 found him and dragged him round to FDR,s cave,the beer flowed,the whiskey jug was emptied and we all turned into AC/DC. And then we went down the Rum Runner and rocked the…
Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
Yeah - magnificent song. Love the vox.
Like the vid too :)
...Interesting watching you play, btw - you've got a different right hand, but watching your left hand I could be watching myself in a mirror! Don't often get that feeling watching another guitarist :)
We're truly nowhere now,
and there is no fight for who's king.
Through a tear in two souls crawls
the shapelessness of this dream.
I lay down in the sun to spring leaks,
when in pours my weight in dead fruit,
under which the ground gives way…
Extravagant and clean and practised, oh, so very well,
they pose and fall and knead and climb, unclothed yet practical.
The ceiling sets the scene and I am reminded not to go.
I'm at the mercy of this posthumous woe.
Never seen again…
I wrote this after I sang with a friend
at his mother's funeral.
He had always wondered
why he looked nothing like his brothers...

Another one of my lil ditties that I started writing at the bowling alley. First game I bowled a 204 the rest of the evenin the games were less exciting. Get me high, then strike a blow

Here's a new one, heard a saying on an advert, 'your home isn't a home unless... ' Out popped this, right let's see what you've all been up to lately, had a few days off. Catch up time.
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
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
Yeah.Takes me back to high school.

Yep, I'm very fond of LWIII as well. Only saw him once though. One of the funniest nights of my life. Nice version :)
Wooo! Never heard the original. But this vocal is sparkly and huge :)
Ha! Ha! Rockin.
Blissful. We got the same roots :) (Did you spend years trying to sing like him too??)
Yeah - magnificent song. Love the vox. Like the vid too :) ...Interesting watching you play, btw - you've got a different right hand, but watching your left hand I could be watching myself in a mirror! Don't often get that feeling watching another guitarist :)
Wooo... wonderful. Now I'm going have to go and find Geir's version - not sure I've ever heard it.
Don't know the original, but I like this version a fair bit :)
Lovely version. That guitar sounds FABULOUS. Faved from the first notes.
Yep, like the four so far. I'm going to have to check Cockney Rebel out themselves now!
Not that familiar with Cockney Rebel... but I'm liking this a lot.
Similarly majestic - and fabulous.
Woof!! This is majestic.
Haha! Superb... absolutely superb. Groove, song, everything.
And this one too. Love it.
Wonderful crazy stuff.
Faved from the outset. Love the vocals. Fabulous tale in the lyrics. Brilliant. Looking forward to the update.
Oh yeah... killer, soulful... and wonderful :)
I love the "Is that it? Is that your perfect plan?" Someone needs to say this to me sometimes... she probably does... and I don't notice! lol
Looking forward to the "Cornflakes" song now :)
Yeah, love how it skips along. Nice one guys.
