This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…
reminds me a little of tom petty. don't you hate when random people tell you what your song reminds you of? anyway, really nice song. all of your stuff is excellent :)
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
About the song
It's like a picture of my brain. Psychadelic number using the Korg Monotron. I strummed the guitar riff at 21:00 and within 40 minutes had all the tracks recorded onto the Zoom. All except the two Monotron tracks which were added…
One of my first favorite songs...I had this idea floating around for years, even tried it with the band in late 98-99. This 2001 recording comes closest to capturing what I hear in my head.
This one seems to have a lot more dynamic range than the other ones. Suits me better as I'm not usually a "loud guy" ... Great 60s/70s touch again. Just the way I like it! :)
Who should come down the cellar to see Elvis but Bon Scott. Reg got on with him like a house on fire, i mean they have a lot in common. Reg told him all about his new love. S o they decided to jam and this is what they came up with…
Yeahhhhhhh hooooooo, deadly good man, deadly good. Thats a damn vocal. One of my favorite Reg songs. Good to hear you Bon......Elvis and Bon getting loose on Jack Daniels, fun, fun, fun....
The piano track is a mangled version of the already-mangled piano from the previous song ("The Saucers Arrive").
The plan was to try to improvise in a way that was somehow rhythmically compatible with the skittering piano track. The guitar track…
A good friend and percussionist Norm Harris contributed percussion to this track – A Cast of Billions - so I ripped out all of the midi percussion and used Norm’s percussion, added a track where I speak Evan’s poem and did some remastering…

Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…

Nice songwriting. Enjoyed that!
Digging it.
Quite the trip! Wonderful groove!
Damn- I would love to be able to do stuff like this. This is great!
Love the music, flavours of Istanbul. Cool perc. there Norm!
Sounds more like 1982 to be. ;) :P Either way it sounds superb. You have achieve a level of professionalism that most of us will never achieve.
That's a beauty Norm! Great stuff!
Cool! That's a Floyd tune that I'm not familiar with. Have to go check it out
Excellent! Sung like a song writer!
Performed in whispers. Beautifully and tastefully done Norm.
Oh do one of mine, do one of mine, this is a great cover of a beautiful song.
Very cool retro feel!
Lovely song.
This has a real classic sound. Kind of Small Faces meets Badfinger. The keyboard touches are mighty fine. Sounds like a hit to me. Great song!
