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!

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 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…

Acoustic blues. Recorded in 2005. I was trying to record something else, can't remember what, and the missus was going out. She had cyclist Lance Armstong's book, or was talking about it. Sounded like a great title for a song as well as his book…

Today I decided I would play with the lovely (and free) [Pocket Blakus](http://blakus.com/pocketblakus-192) solo cello.
At first I tried arpeggiating some chords but this didn't work so well with this cello which has a long, heavy, sound that…
A demo track for a new Reaktor instrument I'm building codename: Mimetron.
Loop Guitar 1 is a long, flowing, ambient piece. Mellow with a few moments of grit.
Mimetron is a 3 voice sampler that is driven by incoming audio. It has 3 channels…
Woof - dat boy is rockin.
At first I thought it was you on the guitar (I was working in another window, recognised the vocal and thought - "hello, there's a man who's been down to the crossroads over the last week or so!!" lol)
The momentary disappointment was more than made up for by the track itself :-)

New song By Andy & Ron
Andy: Lyrics
Ron: music and lyrics, all guitars, bass and vocals.
About an aging rocker who thinks he can still impress the ladies!!!
Lyrics
Verse 1
I knew I was a rocker in my groovy leather pants
I looked at all…
Love it.
I used to have some groovy leather pants - they used to stand up on their own the day after a gig!
Mrs R disposed of them when we got married (mainly cos I couldn't get into them... "why hold on to them?"... "well you never know, I might slim down again"... "not that much you won't" lol)
My attempt at writing a bluegrass tune and an opportunity to try my hand at some flat pickin'
... loosely based on a friends experiences growing up in a small town in the prairies ... where everything is flat ... you know, a place where you can…
I felt compelled to have at least one song that did not use any computerized instruments. This is two tracks of voice and three tracks of guitars. Just me.

Sometimes I sing…
#RPM Challenge 2013#
"Under Watchful Eyes" is my 10th song for the RPM Challenge 2013. Thank you for taking the time to listen.
The adjoining video was filmed February 6, 2013 along the Mississippi River near Red Wing Minnesota (approximately…
i just played some simple triads that matched the basic chord progression to Pachelbel's Canon in D(didn't try to play the original melody or anything), then improvised a few solos, hope you like it.

yes...actually vocals on this one. My buddy Dave laid down some vocals to the lyrics I wrote back in 1994...original arrangement from '91 to be uploaded later...this recording was pulled from a cassette tape and not mixed...sorry for quality…
Dancing in the rain alone
I strain to hear a healing song
With teardrops falling to my feet
I will listen for Love's heartbeat
I'll fly away on angel wings
When I hear the angels sing
Stranded on an island of fear
The ocean's rage is all you…
A noodle that turned into a doodle which turned into a song....thats what you get when you watch David Attenborough's Africa on TV................
No Rain (Lyrics)
The earth was scorched as dry as stone
nothing anywhere wanted to grow
the Devil…
#RPM Challenge 2013#
I’m a lucky boy
I’m filled with joy
I got angels guiding me
Happens every time
I don’t walk that line
Seems to work out splendidly
Stop and look around
I’m the luckiest boy in town
Ain’t no better can be found…
a wee short one
A long time has passed since we last met
I hope that life’s been treating you well
And what are you up to these days
Are you with somebody else
And do you see any of the old crowd
I wonder where they all are now
The years…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
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! :)
Let's not mince our words here. WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOW. Astonishingly pro - very shiny indeed! I can't believe I missed it.
Love your vocals man. I'd like to hear the whole band thing on this one. Bass, drums, piano, harmonica - oh yeah!
Really enjoyed that!
Wonderful arrangement - haunting delivery. I love your voice...great LIGHT and soft shade!
Well, you sing it so well. Sometimes we just have to get a song out of our systems. Thanks, that's great!
This track exudes rhythm. Super vocal and I love the guitar.
Nice one mate dig it
sounds cool ;-)
loved it ... very raw
great song, outstanding vocals, dig the solo too!
This is excellent. Shades of sonny landreth! Vaisvil
I like this one :)
Good one.
braw tell yer maw
wow, fantastic guitar and great lyrics...
Had to wait until I could get a better listen. Well worth the wait, excellent cover Andrew. Made it your own.

Oh yeah, gorgeous cello sound.
Don't think I'll ever understand this way of making music - but it do make some nice sounds. Cool track.
Sounds like you've possibly got some Groovy Leather Pants like ole Ron has... Rocking.

Ooh yeah, top notch indeed.
This one particularly stood out for me - didn't notice it was over 10 minutes!!
Nice RPM, really enjoyed it - well done!
Love it.
Back for another listen. It's a grower :-)
Oh nice. And very smooth picking.
AND THE FAVE BUTTON WORKED FOR ME!!!! lol
Never realised it was a pop-rock chord progression! Pachelbel rocks! Nice one - some really tasty guitar work.
Woo! Like it.
This is wonderful.
I can't see how you're keeping the standard up while creating so many - who cares? Just keep them coming!!
Nice one. Not quite what I was expecting at all - feels (to me) like a departure from both of you.
Oh yeah - you can sure write these.
Had trouble getting this to play earlier - real glad I gave it another go. Wonderful.
Nice one.
