Great song. Was playing and singing along with it like I wrote it. I didn't know the word 'demo' still existed in music. It sure doesn't apply to this tune. Sure as a puffy(singer/songwriter/player) I hear the layers...but at the end of the song it was perfect as it was. I totally get the 'wait until you hear it with everything I hear' composer vibe. But this aint no demo. This is a song. Awesome I'm a wordy bastard considering I'm just your basic''ego driven organ grinder monkey'!

Awesome! Very catchy melodically (complex in a great way) and otherwise. I love the bridge....and the "they don't count anymore"...love that....and nice ending vocal too. Your challenge seems to be going extremely well.

Certainly reminds me of one of my all time Heroes, Roy Harper .....

How come I feel like I'm back in the Court of Henry VIII, with a merry minstrel strumming his stuff ..... love it ....

GEEZZZZZZZ! Your lyrics always just slay! Fun to imagine all your arrangements moving about in your head. It sounds like a major league anthem in the making!

Good one. Keep going, you can do it!

That’s a great sounding demo Andrew! I share your thoughts on RPM. I did it for several years, but now I would rather take my time.

Love it - also the era it is from! I hear the Bron-Y-Aur Stomp but only because you mention it (that is one of my favourite Zeppelin songs). Fun and great musicianship truly.

Ah! I now read your post....that challenge seems more zen :). I also like that emphasis on the song writing part. You're off to a fabulous start! PS thanks for listening to my stuff - much appreciated. ONWARD WE GO! lol

Wow - glad I found you. I'll chime in with the other comments - that is an amazing demo! The raw guitar and voice gives it an intimate feeling (befitting of the song). Well done! Now I'm listening to the other song that came up....really professional!

Well it does it for me, and I find myself agreeing with all that you say ...

Very nice Andrew - and the edge provided by ‘live’ is great for the song 👍👍

I love the raw quality of your vocals and just your guitar. Really powerful indeed. Your lyrics touch that place of remembrance of a long ago friend. What might they be like had they stayed around…. Love it!!

Still one of my fav songs of so many awesome song you’ve written. Your writing is absolutely amazing!

Rats on the long message! I just figured it out… it was bleeped away when one song ended and the next popped up mid typing by me. All hail Taylor Swift!!! I hope you and yours are doing okay during these crazy times.

Glad you're sharing more of your art. I haven't been able to listen in until just recently. Best of luck.

WoW! Rock on! Great crisp guitar. You must come over some time and make one of my guitars sound like that.resting break...huge.

Added to my favorite playlist...perfect driving music.

Top notch guitar playing and production arrangement. Great stuff. 'nick of time' very British alleyway:)

Absolutely fabulous! Your lyrics always mesmerize… wonderful to hear your amazing music again. You’ve been missed indeed.

FOLKS - it's even more impressive than Mr Berry has let on!! I've just found out over on songcrafters.com that he recorded this by taking orh's vocal track ALONE and creating this from that. Says a lot for orh's vocal, but wow, Dave - what you've managed here (especially with orh's "er.. beats per minute? somewhere between 80 and 120" lol) is just stunning. Hats off to you sir...

Wow - just read the details, actual drumming!! Nice one, it's not as easy as we guitarists imagine, is it? Only two weeks? That's amazing. I reckon you'll have it fully under control in another two! :-)

Lovely stuff guys... great guitaring!

And I like this one even more. "and I'm saying what I'm thinking when i don't know what to say and we are the wonder of the world" Love it.

Yeah, I like this a lot. Very satisfying feel and groove

Simple and beautiful

Nice one - you guys put together a good sound. I've been listening to the later ideas you've been posting as well. Love it all - keep it at :-)

Tasty guitar, very tasty

That's really good to listen to.

Stunning. You do some wonderful things with guitars.

I didn't realise it, but this is just what I wanted to listen to... I put it on and just laid back.

Wow, this is incredible. Hope she liked it!

I thought the only Ralph McTell I knew was Streets of London - turns out I know this one too! Can't remember the original, but this is a fabulous recording.

Yes. Brilliant title, and the song/performance backs it up. Wonderful naked vocal.

I like this one even more!

Classy. When I was a teenager I wished my parents had had some brothers for me (I'm a big Bee Gees fan) - there's something about siblings making music together. Love it.

Nice one. There's a few places in the vocal where I'm thinking "how did he do that? I've been trying to nick that vibe from Ian Anderson for weeks now... and I couldn't manage it!"

@ facemask - there's time yet! I hope... lol There's a LOT of competition though... and to be honest, I only really started saying what I wanted when I gave up the idea of becoming famous!!

I'm just gonna follow 2Regs around and listen to what he's listening to... lol This is, as he says, a masterpiece...

Brilliant! Utterly brilliant... Untapped potential... lol... priceless
