Acoustic tale recorded Christmas 2010.
I wrote it years ago. Even tried rehearsing it with the band I was in at the time. But I couldn't play it properly. It took several weeks of practicing DADGAD (never really used it in anger before) until…

Recorded Oct 2010.
It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…
One of my favorites of yours, Andy. But then again ... I think I like all of your great songs the same. You have such a terrific voice, and your songwriting is as profound as your lengthy explanations (which I love, btw! :) ).
Keep them coming!

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

I'm playing catch up here... How did I miss this??!!
This is mighty fine. Faved from the opening guitars - and the rest of the track lived right up to it.
Gorgeous sounds.
When I read the album blurb, I was wondering what the effect would be from the Rock/Acoustic split.
It's fab! Brilliant transition, and now i'm in another place but still emotionally in the same album.
A little ditty i recorded at the weekend and then sent off to the Mighty Two Regs to strut his stuff all over and man that boy can sing!!!
Cheers Reg,your a star!!!
When Jimmy was little he couldn’t stand still
He had pepper in his britches
Jimmy was so funny. We threw him lots of money.
He kept us all in stitches
Jimmy was a thumper. A shadow humper.
He scratched it where it itches

I’ll tell you the truth. I’ve been out of control
They took away my blanket. Put me out in the cold.
Even Miami’s got ice on the ground

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Agree with Bethan great cover
My word, this is fantastic. Wonderful vocal, makes it compulsive listening.
What a performance! Most excellent cover.
ya floored me here, man
I won't repeat what I said at Songcrafters. You know I love this song. And all the others ... :)
Yes this is simply cool/would sound nice live.
One of my favorites of yours, Andy. But then again ... I think I like all of your great songs the same. You have such a terrific voice, and your songwriting is as profound as your lengthy explanations (which I love, btw! :) ). Keep them coming!
Great song-writing - awesome delivery!
Think this melody would translate magically to a music box. Beautiful and bittersweet song. My, your vox are astounding.
You rule
Great song, love the sudden change of tempo in the middle. Really enjoying your voice! Perfect diction!
Nice ballad Andy. Pretty good piano playing if you ask me. Lots more goodies here for me to listen to - and listen I shall, as soon as time permits.
Hi, Andy! I just joined the site. Good to find all your great music here. :) Regards, Steffen

Aww crumbs... Those guitars sound utterly fabulous. Tasty organ going with it too. Love it.
Have you remixed since the "vocals are low" comments? Because I'm getting plenty :)

Fine album. Flows nicely. Really enjoyed it :)
Nice one :)
I was wondering where this was! Isn't it a different mix? Feels slightly different now - mebbe I'm more awake! Fab!
What a fabulous set of songs!
This is a gorgeous song.

Oh YES
Ha! Ha! *love* it...
Aww - this album's working really well for me.
*Shivers down the back of the neck* Brilliant stuff
Woo, what an opening... hang on, I need to switch to the good speakers!! Love it.
Second FDR/2Regs I've heard tonight - you guys is rocking!! It's party time now (Sunday roast and a bottle of wine, anyway!)
And this... love how it hangs together.
Tasty.
Oh yes. LIKE IT. Love the chorus.
Nice one chaps
WOW! I've been away a long time... I'd never have predicted you'd come out with something like this - love all the vocals.
