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…

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…

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…

Thanks for your latest round of positive comments, Andrew. Really most appreciated. Have access to unbelievable range of sound libraries etc and looking to try them all at the moment!!!

I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…

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…

I used to listen to the original version of this tune from Crash Bandicoot while driving to and from a job that I hated. It reminded me of working retail and how every customer is heartless and nothing is fair. After my success with making Fight…
This is the song that nearly killed my desire to have anything to do with music or recording ever again. Sure, let’s pretend that one cello is a whole symphony orchestra. Yes, that’ll be easy.
I learned a lot from this piece about trying to…
Take a look around...
Tell me what you see...
Anger in her face...
Cried with stolen tears...
Careful of her words.
They're not what they seem...
First to cast a stone.
Never without sin.

Let Old ghosts be gone
As time…
A little spaghetti metal featuring The Two Regs
The Hangman
It was a cloudless blue sky
there was no where for her to hide
in the hot sun, as she witnessed her man die
the accuser stood with his head high
as he told all his lies…
i always wanted to do a version of i am the walrus.
i did not include the radio part in the middle, nor all the
king lear quotes uttered. but i did use most of the strings
they used for effect. this is a kind of prog - psyche - hard rock…
This is one of my most prided works. It uses layering on a steel guitar arpeggio/melody. Instrumentation includes flute, guitar, strings, chorus, orchestral percussion and a few others. Enjoy!
It hit me...I know so many sides of so many arguments it's all become useless.
TOO MUCH
I’ve heard too much. I’ve seen too much
Don’t ask me any questions because
I know too much
I’ve read too much. I’ve written too much
Consider…
This is a GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY SONG
I laid down some tracks and Jeff, upon listening came up with this rant...
NO MORE
No more sin or sorrow foolish tantrum to a fault
No more dirth upon the land that withers under the assault
No…
This is another GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY piece from the VOICES CD...
DIAMOND - Monster Wave
It started with an earthquake half a mile below
Belching like a bull whip to make the water blow
Monster in the making, Frankenstein unchained
Gravity…

Oh my goodness! I love the sounds you are making.
And here am I trying to figure out how to get a convincing "cello" impersonation out of the various instruments I can actually play!
Oh wow! That sounds fabulous. Gorgeous cello sound.
That's a tough song to listen to. Powerful stuff.
Ah, a fine chord. One of my favourites.
I'm ashamed to say I don't actually know any Mahavishnu Orchestra... but this sounds like you had a lot of fun. Nice one.
Like it.
Oh yeah... :)
Cool grooves. Loving the sounds.
You're a crazy man!! :)
That's really rather effective. Not easy-listening, but moving.
Nice one. like it. I have to admit, I was expecting "that riff" when I pressed play, though lol
Back for another listen to this - very tasty indeed.
Beautiful stuff.
Like it :)
Stunning!
Oh wow... 3 tracks that hit the nail right on the head for me.
And that's some pretty good ranting. Like this a LOT. It usually takes a while for lyrics to grab me, but this lot dragged me right in immediately.
Oh yeah, creepy. Like it.
That does sound good
