I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…
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…

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

I found this one while I was digging through the shoe-box for the 1994 songs. Apparently I wrote it on 10th November 1995.
Foolishly, I thought it would only take a week or so to record... I was originally expecting…

And here's another song from 1994, with a sparkling new "Andrew Russe Band" arrangement fresh from the broom-cupboard.
Like most of my songs, it was written with an acoustic guitar, a pen, and an A4 pad. The ones…

This is great! What starts out as a super solid guitar riff turns out to be the start of an inventive arrangement and tasty guitar playing. Your voice is interesting too, and made better by the fact that you're clearly feeling it!

With JS Tolar, as band Visions Of Nell.
My tribute to Anne Boleyn, the first queen to be publicly executed in England. I used some of the poetry she wrote during her imprisonment in the chorus. An innocent, incomparable woman.
With Big Time Operator, who originally uploaded his awesome music with the offer that anyone can add vocals...too good to miss! Love this music, and had loads of fun wailing. Thanks Chris!
Played on BBC Radio Introducing. :)

With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
An instrumental guitar tune which combines some flashy rock "guitar hero" stuff with a strong melody. Couldn't think of a title so I just did what I always do in that situation... nick the name of an old movie from the '50s
Well that's been a very enjoyable half hour, welcome to alonetone. Looking forward to hearing more of your stuff.
I'll just go and practice a bit now...!
Ah! I wondered when a "Hank" vibe would appear - I just knew you could do it... Masterful stuff.
Gorgeous tones. Are you mic'ing up "real amps" or modelling?
Like Kavin says - wow...
When this one started I thought "ah, won't grab me so much" (jazz is not something I've ever made much effort to get into, and the opening chords/stops announced themselves as "not your thing andrew") - but then... wow
(and when the stops arrived again at the end - I was well into it!)
A little jazz-funk for your delectation. My homage to Jeff Beck's 1975 masterpiece album "Blow By Blow". The title is the name of a Lee Child book I was reading at the time I was writing the tune.
Loving your stuff so far. Although I'm a guitarist, it's not often "guitar only" music holds my attention for more than a track or so - but you're managing it easily!
A little experiment... what would happen if you took a Gypsy jazz tune in the style of Django Reinhardt & played it with a rock band type line up? I reckon it might sound a bit like this :-)
A demo recorded live for the band THE BIG BAD DOG
Trevor...Vocal
Jon...Guitar
Gary....Drums

A BIG, BIG thank you to Wildgeas who took my simple acoustic guitar song and turned it into a beautiful work of art. Arrangements and Production done magnificently by Paul Lennon (Wildgeas). Also, special thank you to Bethan who put her sweet…
i've used the same chord progression as i have eyes but speeded it up quite a bit....Hope you enjoy!!
LET IT LOOSE
you don’t know me and i don’t know you
so lets get together and stop feeling blue
lets shake it out and lets get this thing…
New song from GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY
from the POP GOES THE GHOST album

When Layla comes over everything stops
When Layla comes over I put on my socks
I put on my shoes. I put on my shirt.

Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
I love your music. You never disappoint. Always makes me happy to hear your music. Awesome.
'ello Stranger, that's a real piece of class, A + + + from me.
Great song, vocals, and production!
Very nice work, I love the quality in your voice.
Welcome back sir! Really nice song, instrumentation, and super sound quality even through the ol’ ear buds!! 👍👍🎶🎶👍
Another beauty from house of Russe well worth the wait
Great piece.
You had me at, "If I back off and shut my mouth..." Know exactly where you are. So afraid the answer is, "No."
Sounds like a 50s Buddy Holly era song. Very sweet sentiment. And, yes, I can dance to it.
Great characterization. Great kick drum sound.
WoW! Rock me, dude! Love the imagery.
Genius lyrics !
Love this !
Oosh.
*double take*
Seems your peers and colleagues were very mistaken. Great job. acoustic57
Wowza! Kudos to the nice work from the man behind the curtain :) acoustic57
Hooooly Moses yes please

Love what you did with this.
Now I know what you were wearing, this makes more sense to me... Gorgeous vocal

OK... haha! I was just thinking of dusting off my fiesta red strat... and then this kicks off... perhaps I'll play one of the teles instead. Love it.

Tasty. Very tasty.
Oh yes! Nice one
The Big Bad Dog is a rocking little combo. Love it.
This is shaping up real nice... crying out for the right bassist. Loving what you guys are doing together.
Rockin stuff.
Wow! This works. Nice one folks.
Aww this is fabulous
NICE. It's got a wonderful feel to it. Love the "Doo-do-do-doo" choruses.
LOVE IT I get the feeling this isn't the first version of this that I've heard? Have you posted a different version before?
The guitars have a particularly nice bite on this one. And like Ms Sky says... You ROCK Looking forward to hearing more
Rocks, big time
