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.

Andrew , Great quality to this higher register,Heart felt and not Whiney. I love this. I could no more sing like this than
Wiggle my arms and fly. Great voice
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…

"I like that notion of optimism right around the corner . . . but not quite here yet."
Yep, I like that as well now, VERY much... but I didn't really believe it when I wrote it! lol - it was more of a yearning for it to be true.

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!

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…

I'm a teacher, a parent of elementary school children, a mental health advocate, and a pacifist. It's been a rough week... But there's still time.
TIME
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…

Andrew , Great quality to this higher register,Heart felt and not Whiney. I love this. I could no more sing like this than Wiggle my arms and fly. Great voice
Oh yeh, great groove going on, give me them Blues any time, any where...
"I like that notion of optimism right around the corner . . . but not quite here yet." Yep, I like that as well now, VERY much... but I didn't really believe it when I wrote it! lol - it was more of a yearning for it to be true.
This kind of guitar playing really gets me going. Nice job. I like that notion of optimism right around the corner . . . but not quite here yet.
Wow!!! Loving it all......ooooh dem Blues sure sound good........
that's a damn nice groove and that totally rare thing - a believable vocal! faved
Nice groove. Ever heard any Fred Eaglesmith? Backing reminds me of his band - a very good thing in my world!
Wonderfully bluestastic tune. Great vocals. Love the Muddy Waters-ish guitar too.
Always loved this one and you did a hell of a job with it! Great vocals!
Excellent! :)

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.
