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!

NEEDLE'S EYE
the river of time is flowing bright
out into the void of empty night
we gaze at the ripples almost scared of what we’ll find
in search of the past we penetrate
the dream of an everlasting fate
we’re destined to find that…
Having listened to the first two, I was wondering when this started whether you'd have song to fit the rocking intro... no worries!
It's melodic, it rocks.
Loving your guitar playing and guitar orchestration across these songs.
STRING THEORY
A little playful and teasing sigh
A little twinkle in your eye
You’re a Devil, temptress, I am helpless
In front of you
On and off again
I’m your little plaything
Up and down I go
Puppet on a string
You let me go and…
TWICE IN A MILLION
Counted the flowers in my back yard
Dreamt of the games that I won and I lost
Sorted my ties in the closet
Had those old Father’s Day cards arranged
Love is an heirloom of a long time past
Almost not tempting…
Faved from the opening chords - the guitar sound... woo, way to start an album - luckily, the song lived up to it!
Great chorus, verses build up to it nicely.
Love the chords in the middle eight.
Yes!
Our twisted, Psychedelic Folk version of RAIN by the Beatles. Starry Nightmoth performs on the Yamaha E-313 KB, using it's "bag-pipe" setting. This 4:20-long song is best heard on headphones, with the lava and black lamps running, incense burning…
Sing along songs, even if you're too old.
Featuring:
Brent Kinder on bass
Andy Samford on vocals, percussion, and lead guitar
Bob Sorace on vocals and percussion
and Grant even sang along!
Written about a bout of writers block that struck in 2014, basically ending my attempt to complete RPM that year. The topic should be familiar to most of you.
I got a friend, his name is Tim, and he really likes donkey songs.
Letter Seventeen on Mandolin, Banjo, Backing Vocals, Beer bottle, hoots n hollers...
Keyboards (bagpipes) performed by Starry Nightmoth. Lead guitar by George Harrison. Vocals and all other instruments performed by Gene Eric Mann. Thunder and rain by Mother Nature. Lyrics by John Lennon.
Crumbs - this is good... Listening on headphones, wondering whether I've been drinking or not.
Started out as very relaxing - slightly disturbing after a while! lol
The thunder and rain came as a welcome release of the tension.
Really well put together.
SNOW MAN
I'll tell you right now
I don't cry
You might mistake some sweat
for a teardrop in my eye
But, I don't cry
In spite of what you might be thinking
I don't get tired of humble pie
(That's not a tear drop in my eye)
And don…
This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.

WRITER’S BLOCK
I went out to the stockyards last night. I don’t get out much but I had an invite.
My buddy, Guthrie Kennard was playing.
The place was full. The band was tight. Whitney Raquel opened the night
And the kids from the 2500 Club…

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

And this is fabulous. Love the groove, the chords... and the slide parts, wow, they're gorgeous. And a fine song sat on top of it.

Aww LOVE it...
I've got the headphones but not the rest of the recommended paraphernalia... but it worked anyway. Nice one, like it.
Superb stuff. Love the song. And that lead break - now that's what I call Dad Rock!
Yep, if she runs off, you might as well write about her until she comes back. Love the guitars and the jumping groove to this.
This is brilliant.
Awww! A kazoo solo! I bought one a year ago - haven't found a use for it yet (apart from annoying the missus!). Love the sound of this.
Crumbs - this is good... Listening on headphones, wondering whether I've been drinking or not. Started out as very relaxing - slightly disturbing after a while! lol The thunder and rain came as a welcome release of the tension. Really well put together.
Love the chords on this. Like Gene says - bittersweet.
Oh yes!
Love it.
Tasty sounding guitar.
Well that does the job. Nice one.
Wow! What a journey...
Crumbs - this thing is a *masterpiece* and I'm only halfway through it! Were you trying to do your entire rpm challenge on the first track?!! hehe
Oh yeah, fine song to close. Cool album.
Another single! :-) Love the vocal - 2nd verse is gorgeous.
Here's the single! Great track.
