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…
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…
You and me both, buddy! Haha. Nah I kid. It just seems really hard to get people to listen to new music. There's just so much of it around. :)
But thanks again. Much appreciated.

Andrew...best song I have heard in a long long time...i am blown away. Everything is perfection on this. Your voice is great...your voice is similar to Ed Roland from Collective Soul...but more soulful....I must listen to this 500 more times....thanks for sharing.

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…

Please let me in, baby Let me in, let Me in, Baby let me in
I’m looking up your number now
Hoping to hook up somehow
When you hear me ring?
Please let me in
Baby let me in, let me in, Baby, let me in
I’m knocking on your door right…
We’ve been down that road
So many times, before
I know it isn’t easy
For you to let it go
We both agreed, to take things slowly
But when we take off, watch us go
Take me now, I just feel, like letting go
Take me right now, I’m letting…
You can look forever
For your happy home
But you won’t find it
No matter where you roam
You need some direction
You can count on me
And I’ll be your fool
Every time you’re feeling
You have lost your way
You come to me
And pretend…
I have NO idea what you're singing about... :-) but I'm loving your daily songs and find myself waiting for them to appear. Just played this one to Mrs R - she likes it too.
That’s How They Get You
Bleeding trails, a map to everywhere you’ve ever been. Seeping in from beyond the boundless fringe, you cannot be sustained, and won’t be washed away. You light an abandoned fire in someone else’s yard. That’s how they…
Wow! Yep, I need a lie down now... or at least I need to put the kettle on and recover a bit before the wife gets home! I've had the studio monitors turned up really loud... glad I've found you... this is why I love alonetone - I end up liking stuff I'd never have gone looking for. Nice one.
Son of the Queen
Isolating the cross-hatched memories of those starless nights when we searched for light to pour through the wounds we carry around, fashioned after and fawning, we, now downward, fall. A cast-iron bodice over the whimsical has…
First off thanks (MTC) jim for letting me play around with this lovely backing track. i just wish i could of mixed it better i'll have to get the books out and actually read them this time, instead of clicking here and there and hoping for the…
But now I've listened to it - OH YESSS. This is superb guys, nice one... AND I got the guitar solo I was originally anticipating, and wot a goodie it is.... The whole thing... FAB!

Oh wow! This is NOT what I was expecting. I thought it was going to be a guitar solo addition, and I was thinking I'll get round to it soon ... And then I kept seeing "It's not ok with MTC"... and I kept thinking OMIGOD what's wrong with him?!?! Hope he's ok...
A quite 'straight ahead' rock feel to this at the beginning. The Rickenfaker bass has a lovely fat sound to it... Then it gets anthem-like from 2:45 onwards
Mighty fine - has a definite "conclusion"/"closure" vibe to it. I kinda like how the final one has a title of "Growing" implying the story goes on (which the music does as well)
I hope Brian (one of us Proods) will forgive me for posting this before we could get together to work on it further. He first played it for me a few months ago and I've been obsessively tweaking it every chance I could get.
I like to imagine…
Higher Spirit (The Only One)
boudreau
There’s a higher spirit
Nothing comes near it
I do declare it’s quite a ride
And the heart will chase it
Egos embrace it
You can’t erase it from your life
And when ya can’t escape the rain clouds…
Outta Sight
boudreau
Flip topping, cherry popping
Never stopping to look inside
Wearin’, tearin’ with power steering
And I’m veering off into the night
I disappear outta sight
Short days in so many ways
I’m amazed I’m not sleeping…
to build a fire
lyrics - boudreau
Music - maiorano/boudreau
to build a fire
there's never a plan
just pure desire
and circumstance
touch two wires
leave spark to chance
she's reaching higher
sit back and watch her dance
she said…
Listened to the whole album. Excellent stuff. As always, really enjoyed it. Had a bit of a "lighters in the air moment" going with this last track - nice one.
Oh yes. This is the stuff. Cool song. Some *seriously* tasty guitaring going on (I was listening to Brothers and Sisters when I spotted this had come in... so I paused them Allmans and hit play... and this just fitted right in to my mood).
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Dude...this song is killing me. That slide guitar is placed perfectly in the spectrum...everything is....god damn that is a good tune...jeez louise!
You and me both, buddy! Haha. Nah I kid. It just seems really hard to get people to listen to new music. There's just so much of it around. :) But thanks again. Much appreciated.

Oh, that hit the spot!
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

Yep, you've got that 60s-70s pop-rock vibe that I love.
Loving the feel you guys are getting.
It sounds to me like you guys have got more than one lead vocalist?
Oh yes, cool sounds :)
I have NO idea what you're singing about... :-) but I'm loving your daily songs and find myself waiting for them to appear. Just played this one to Mrs R - she likes it too.
Oh yes. A mightily cool tune. I close my eyes and can taste it. Nice one.
It do seem very quiet around here! This one's a goodie, though.

Wow. Yeah. Favourite so far.

Love it! And a fine end to a rockin album - nice one.
"Knee jerkin’ and chicken fried Gherkins" - classic, lol
Fairly certain I would have missed this album (Higher Spirit) ... what an opener!

The lead's the obvious leading lady... But I LOVE that stabbing rhythm guitar.
