When the girl in the room is just too cute for me to concentrate on whatever it was I was trying to do.
Anything Done
How am I supposed to get anything done
With you looking like that
I'm so far gone
I'm forgetting where I'm at
How…
So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.
YOU NEED…
there's something about the way you sing "cool wind BLOWing"
and "satchel full of WORRies" that i really realy like. Gets me right down into the heart of the matter. Bravo.
Another formerly poorly recorded song... Really a piece of poetry that was put to music (a hit-or-miss approach for me that seemed to work well on this one).
Three Times More
Dad plants his spring garden
For a good summer bounty he's…
Aw, we tried to make this a bit more pro, but sometimes the really fun moments in life are fleeting. So here it is warts and all. But don't mind that - just get out onto the dance floor with Reg! It's ok: he's up to date on his shots.
When…
I'm gonna have to set aside some time to listen to this entire Lobster Man album. What have I been missing?
Love the lead break on this one - right in yer face.
Good version. I've heard so many covers of this, my favorite one is by New Riders of the Purple Sage. An old country classic originally done by Lefty Frizell but written by someone else.
A frightening thing, to go from being a man to becoming a Lobster-man.
Now Gather around me hearties
For I've got a sad tale to be told
Hoist the colors ye bilge rats
The call rang out, we were off for gold
Grog in our bellies, horn-pipes…
I like the other songs of yours (those I've listened to so far) a little better, but this one sure is a very good song too. Nice listen. :)
Regards,
Steffen
If you'd described this to me I'd have said it'll never work...
... but it does!
It's one of my least favourite Beatles songs (and I'm a big Beatles fan), this has made me reconsider it as a song in itself. Nice one.
A live improvised recording for the RPM Challenge 2011
recorded 2/19/11 at Dunn Bros. Coffee in Keller, Tx.
Kavin.: guitar, loops
Michelangelo: buzz guitar
Ross Reitzammer: flute
Great job! Please tell us a little bit about your songs. Who does what (singer/instruments/composition/production), and maybe what the story behind them is, if there is one.
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…
Like Cave street says.....Blue Rodeo, thats a good comparison, and that is a high compliment indeed, one of the best loved Canadian bands out there....you done real good here Andy.

Another excellent song/performance. Your voice, guitar, and songs just hit the spot for me.

This one's a bit special.
Norm, I love it. This is all new to me and I'm digging this venue. We'll have to do a song together.
Great production, as we expect it from Nick. Composition and vocals are superb too. Regards, Steffen

Great song, my friend! I think this is my favorite one of yours.
I've heard tell of this many times, but I have to admit I've never got round to listening to it before. Superb :-)
You won't make me a country fan, but I sure enjoyed all your songs. Great vocals, btw! :) Regards, Steffen
A great song excellent vocal love it great feel to it

Another solid country-rock tune. Your songs should all be played on country radio.
This is one of my all time favourite songs (though I've never heard The Band's version). Great cover - love the backing vocals, really effective.
You are definitely a master of your trade. This song has a nice, foot-tapping rhythm. Regards, Steffen
Very cool song
Very nice country-rock. Country the way I like it - and that excludes a lot of country songs. :) Regards, Steffen
