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…

Your best song so far - IMO. And all the others were great too. But this one has that wonderful blues-gospel feel that grips you from the very first note.
I'll listen to this song a lot more times, no doubt about that.

Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
Thanks Andrew. Glad you enjoyed the album. I was pretty happy with it for my first RPM and my first real dabble into that style of playing. I will be swinging back by to check out your tracks!

This is a good song played well, and I really dig your gritty vocals! I'll have to post some of my blues stuff. It's not much different than what you're doing
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…

A blues noodle that got out of Hand just before the midnight curfew...........trying my hand at a bit of keyboard percussion and the voice through a guitar effect........well you have to try don't you?
I've been messing about with my virtual keyboard this week, in preparation of an amazing collaboration I'll be working on soon :)
Beat and sax are from Mixcraft.
Enjoy! xox
I was in a rush when I first heard this...
But with a couple of listens this time... woo! Don't know the original at all, but this fits you like a glove. Fabulous vocal madam, absolutely fabulous...
Wish I could fave it again.
And keep messing... the virtual Jim and Don are still struggling to agree with each other at the moment lol

Take what you want
But keep your hands off my medication
I can get by without you
But not without them
And don’t you dare
Even think of taking my guitars
And don’t you care
Of the state you’ll leave…
An old recording from 1997 done on a Tascam 4 track. Converted to digital from casette so the recording is warbly in spots.
I am currently working on some new songs so I decided to throw so oldies but baddies out there.
Cry (if you want to) – Steve Harris 990211
Run into these open arms my love, sad you’re breaking
But on the outside you’re so tough
You’re not fooling me, enough’s enough
Cry if you want to, cry…..
I’ll be here till someone comes…

This was the original version I recorded before I completely overhauled it (see version on "It takes a village album ). I wasnt crazy about it but hell I put time into it and completed it so why not post it up.
Wedding march written a long time ago for a friend and a failed marriage. The song symbolizes hope and trust in the face of fear. The composition is all that's left of that now, but, it still means something. Not our usual, so please don't…
Oh, it's fall again,
Autumn leaves are sweeping in,
Came and went like the tides.
Oh, chills on the wind again,
Eating through our clothes,
Aching our blood cells.
Oh, where is home again,
With fire in our hearts,
And love on our shoulders…

Great, great song. The slide is perfect. Love the soulful vocal delivery.
My beer is all blurry ....
Your best song so far - IMO. And all the others were great too. But this one has that wonderful blues-gospel feel that grips you from the very first note. I'll listen to this song a lot more times, no doubt about that.
Love the dual guitar attack here!!!!
Wow, guys, that's a TREMENDOUS improvement on an already pretty impressive track. I love it. Great job!
Thanks Andrew. Glad you enjoyed the album. I was pretty happy with it for my first RPM and my first real dabble into that style of playing. I will be swinging back by to check out your tracks!

Leave the milk out of mine... This does the job, right on the money.
Oooo, I say... Nice. I reckons you needs to turn the heavy breathing up a bit though... I had to listen REALLY hard lol
Nice version. Didn't realise David Bowie had covered it!!
This is very cool. Didn't like the idea at first, but it dragged me in. Wonderfully put together.
Yeah, cool sound, fine song. Never thought I'd hear Carshalton mentioned in a song!
Good to hear a new one :) Crazy guitar tuning! Makes good sounds though.
Run out of words to say on your songs... love it :)
Oooo yeah. Nice.

Oh yeah, like this one.
Oh yeah, tasty, even with the warbles.
Nice one
Enjoyed as instructed! :) Fab.
Like it - I was out in the kitchen, and it started up, I rushed back in to see who was... Rockin stuff
Rockin stuff. Love the spacey bit in the middle.
Don't know the original, but this sure sounds good.
Yummy. And she's got a nice name, too :)
Ummm... I love both versions... but I think this is the one I'd take on holiday with me.
Lovely, but sounds very sad... I wonder whether it would have sounded so sad if I hadn't read the story first?
Love the images you paint with your words.
