i know
you don't understand yet
this is a glimpse of eternity…
I don't miss anything that inspired this or the rest of the songs on this album. But thank you for asking. I will not repeat the mistake of letting you back into my life. I literally want nothing to do with you.
a few nights ago riding my electric scooter in pitch black darkness (flash light broken) i could of sworn i thought bigfoot was creeping on me the whole way behind the hedge bushes.
So, my 2020 started with losing Bandit.
THE LAST LONG WALK
You woke me up at 4AM this morning
And told me that you had to see the sights
I'd read all the signs and heard the warnings
I couldn't put you through another night
So we walked…
Voice through EHX Stereo Memory Man and Zoom RFX-300. Slightly different arrangement from usual, with only one output from EHX to Zoom, with the other going directly to the recorder, as well as the stereo pair from the Zoom. Submitted to Sound…
Wasn't really planned that way, but listening to the completed piece made me think this could be what our little avian buddy on Mars might sound like to the locals. Same set-up as Kowanakita, but sound source is trombone. Also submitted to Sound…
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…

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…
Draft arrangement of a favorite song.
Wurlitzer, Moog Model D, Banjo and some Rodney advice.
Thanks to Almut, Mars, Floss for vocal chorus help and Markus for the beautiful scratchy baroque violin.
I recorded this song a couple of years ago in a church. It was raining and I felt a bit blue at the time. I only had a zoom h1 recorder, a metronome and headphones at the time.
So I couldn't really play over what I recorded previously. But…

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.
