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…
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…
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!

On my way…
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…

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…

Easter 2010 I decided…
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…
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…
Great stuff Andrew. Have a listen to my solo stuff...Tiggy Acworth. Many thanks for so many kind words...keep singing and eventually the world will hear!

That be some good production right there. Dag nabit! I enjoy the different looks of the verse sections as the progresses. And the big vocal harmonies...I thought that ac gtr lick was gonna fly off into django territory.....always fun listening to your tunes. I learn something everytime.

A few months back we had a "Beatlesfest" on songcrafters.org.
I contributed this and Yesterday.
This one's a bit of a departure for me. Not the song itself - it's been one of my favourites ever since I was tiny (I preferred Robin Gibb's…
Oh yeah, I love me some Beatles! Any Beatles, even the trippier stuff (maybe especially, haha). This one is certainly a fave of mine, and you give a great rendition here. I did not know Robin Gibb had a version of this, dang Imma have to check that out too! You definitely have the soulfulness down, as I feel that's what the song entails. Great great great! =D
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…

the stars are shining
a million eyes

i hold you close
your arms around me…
I put the music together last weekend ... my friend and bandmate Rob George did the bass track for me last Saturday ... I used my godin acoustic electric for the guitars ... did the vocals this morning and wish I had more time for the mix…
Oh yeah... Just been typing "too many chrimbo songs, hrmppph..." in an email...
And then this little beauty comes out of my speakers. SUPERB song and recording. Big thumbs up from me on this one...
And I've even faved it! (Don't tell Mrs R!)
This groovy song was written by the great Jimmy Smith.
Project Wakerobin is:
Kevin Gerzevitz - Hammond Organ
Jason Stewart - Guitar
Marc Carmi Smith - drums
This is a song I wrote with a heavy heart following the Columbine shooting. At the time I felt that the timing just wasn’t right to put it out there.
I am not one to shove religion down anyone’s throat. Personally, I feel the true spiritual journey…

Like. So clean.
Clean! Like the simplicity. The intensity.
Love the delicacy of it.
Don't know how I missed this one. I'll second Tess' comment, WOW.... "Shine" hits the mark!
I Really Like This One.The Acoustic Guitars Are So Crisp And Clean
You are a mad man! This is F'ing epic! I can here influences throughout , Floyd, The who to name a couple. Spot on everytime. Magnifico!
Sweeeet! It's early morn but need to listen again late at night with a large bourbon. Another excellent track Mr Russe
very wonderful work,, seems like you had a bit of fun doing this...

I wish i could sing like that...damn...those harmonies are bad ass...your music is much more than a song. It seems locked into almost a epic tale..
Beautiful cover!

This is a very intoxicating flavor, between the melody and the music and the content... Great job!
Thanks so much for your kind comments.....and keep up the great music...."Anyway" is a wonderful track

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.
Second listen for me - I was distracted first time - loving the skipping feel.

Smooth
Oooh yeah
Mighty fine song.
Ooops, dropped me plectrum in the eggnog... :) xxxxx
Nice one
Another goodie. Well meaty. Fab bass sound. And I can almost see the dry ice and back projections while I'm listening. Love the frogs lol
Oh yeah, big guitar sound - love how you get that from acoustics.
A magnificent performance. You guys work so well together - always feels like I'm in the room watching/listening.
Aahh... So glad there's some more stuff from you guys. This is mighty fine. Hits the spot for me.
Oh yeah, get some words. Sounds great.
Well this made me turn the speakers up! Rockin...
Oh this is just magical. Love it.
