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…
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…

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!

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…
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…
A tale of keeping your head above the water, or not...
Recorded Jan-Feb 2011.
I wrote it many years ago, never thought I'd ever do anything with it.
I intended to record this with just an acoustic and my new EDB (electric upright bass…

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

Time to look in the mirror
Time to say what we believe

Dawn awaits – SKEEN 121013
The beating, of her heart up next to mine,
So sweetly keeping time
Stirring, from her slumber through the night
Slowly opens….her eyes shine brighter than the mooonlight through the trees
Awake, my darling from…
I SHAKE by James Michael Taylor
Ever since that night when you told me you were leaving me I shake, just a little, I shake.
Not so much that anybody else would even notice
I shake, Just a little, I shake.
Every time I read a book and…
Orchestral Drum
I remember carving
Our names in to a tree
Slipping out the window
To hang out in the street
And wrestling in the driveway
With the stones stuck in our skin
I remember thinking we'd grow old
Our friendship would never…

This is an instrumental written in 2010, published in march of 2012. A fun little ditty with a nice grovve. The You Tube video is old footage of Blue Movie. It is also titled as NO ALIBI, which has been changed to AMEN ALIBI due to availability…
A little work in progress here : written with a friend as a female/male duet.
Ill cut off my hair
And trim down my nails
Set out to sea
Then let down my sails
Mistake me for a man
You wouldn't be the first
You can't have my best

Re-recorded an old one. I suppose it's my nod to all those black & white films I've seen on America from the '20s, '30s and '40s. And of course, old Johnny Cash films,like 'Walk the Line'
This was the very first Eugene Hammond track; indeed, the track that inspired me to start this up as a separate and distinct project from everything else in the first place. I revisited this track last month, rebuilding it from the ground up…
[this is the first recording I have made of this new song - on my iPhone - just as the words were taking share. Hope to recorded a more robust version for the next RPM. Enjoy folks!]
It's getting late
Oh, but not too late
To fall in love
To loose…
I sat watching Tom Jones on BBC4 this evening and thought i'd try and write him a song now i just have to find his management meet up with Tom sign a contract and get him to sing it then i should make a few bob...well it is Christmas you've gotta…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Awesome recording, LOVE IT!!!
Don't normally like cover songs...unless they're turned on their head. And you have done a killer job...Great.
Straight out of the Commitments sound track I say.....Great track
Very amazing.
Good song all around. All the instruments interact well and the recording is clean. You have a great soulful tone to your voice.
I have the BR1600CD, I recorded almost all my stuff on it!
Some nice dynamics, sounds like a pretty polished pop rock tune!
Some excellent stuff here, nice one. :)
Top track mate.
I dig your voice...veey soulful.... Nice acapella version....
S-w-e-e-t Piepod I love it Andrew! LG
Great storytelling Andrew. Real nice recording.
Simply beautiful
Master class in minimalism. More doodles please.
Such an intimate sound. Wonderful vocal! Holding my breath while listening.
love it
Brilliant, soulful vocal! Well done! w;-)
Really cool track mate.
Yeah! Has a nice live sound to it, you nailed that.
Rory Gallager type riff, well put together

Where's the guitars? lol Much to my surprise... I really like this!!
That's a wonderful track.
Aw, this is fabulous.
Yes!
Yep, I find myself wanting more of this one
A very cool recording.
Wow... this one hasn't had much love - sounds fantastic
Yep, love this one...
Oh yeah, cool sounds.
Cool sounds. I was quite looking forward to it all ending... I wouldn't have heard this little masterpiece if it had though!
Digging the harp on this one. And some fine picking as well :)
This is the biz... Love those guitars, and a gorgeous song to go with them.
Magnificent stuff. Wonderful stuff.
Oh gorgeous... Fabulous listening.
Love it.
Nice relaxed vibe.
Yep, that rocks along nicely :)
Woof! nearly skipped this one (what with 12 minutes written on it). SO glad I didn't. Loved how it built and then took me off places.
Nice one. Looking forward to hearing the more robust version.
Like it. Love the jangly acoustics.
