The original title was 'Mediocre Fajita' (long story)... It started out with the initial bass riff but I ran out of creativity and left it. Then over the course of Christmas 2020 I got COVID so most of the time I had neither the willingness or…

What is a rhythm ferret? What does it look like? What does it eat? And more importantly, what would it sound like?
Some of the answers are here....

This began (as many do) as a very light hearted, feel-good formulaic verse/chorus sort of thing... I played the first minute or so to my wife and she said it had an almost festive feel to it - all that was missing were sleigh bells... But I didn…

I adopted the 'kitchen sink' philosophy with this one - the 'duelling keyboards' featured are the Yamaha CS-80 and the Mini Moog; I decided to add acoustic and electric guitar chords/picking to add some texture and the basses used are the Rickenfaker…

I began having guitar tuition with the rather amazing Nathan King of Level 42 a few weeks ago and this is really the first song in which guitar is the main focus - It needs vocals but I'll add it to warbling list when I'm back in the UK

Mike (Dragonsong) asked me to sing this poem, from a well loved C17th Somerset folk song, over his music - was a lovely pleasure.

Light, Jazzy and a bit prog in places... I had the season of summer in my mind when I did this one

So my lovely wife bought me a guitar this week... I started by learning some basic and easy chord shapes and this song came together. It's the first one I've done where everything is played by me.
It also features my voice on lead and backing…

Another one driven by several bass riffs I had in my head - The vibe in places reminds of 'Witchita Lineman'!

The piano melody was in my head so I committed it to the voice recorder on my phone - the rest of the song was built around it

This was a problem child.. The other tracks fell together quickly but this was a slow burn. The chorus is far more uplifting than the verse - which reminds me of a melancholy hybrid of 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' and the outro to the 70s British…

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 to post it on the 17th August…

OK, let's delve once more into the magical shoebox of unused songs...
I've already recorded several that were written in 1994 (Sleeping with the Ghost, Elizabeth's Room, With Mum Again, If You Knew, A Hundred and Twenty Pound) and I still have…

Love the exploratory feel in this - especially that dreamy mid section. Sorry you guys have been struck by the evil 19. Sending you all the gentle vibes - you have to do RPM again in a few weeks... ;)

A bit of a 'kitchen sink' one... It's another one I play beginner's guitar on tentatively (the lead break & rhythm)
The are no vocals (I'm amassing a large amount of songs needing vocals!) but it does feature some more epic 80s synths…

This is only the second song I've ever written on the guitar - I'm playing acoustic and rhythm... and you can tell I'm a beginner 😆 Happily the rest of the instrumentation is a little more polished.
No sugar coating this... It's a very melancholy…

This was all written on the bass - I wanted to get an earthy 70s Rickenbacker bass vibe on this so naturally there's liberal splashes of Moog and Hammond Organ to accompany it.
It's kind of 'prog-lite' and again needs vocals. It's a working…
