This is a live cover of a Ralph Mctell song , telling the story of a coach tour to the seaside town Brighton just before World War 1 , thinking the war would be over in weeks
This was my very first attempt at recording , done on two tracks , me picking and vox , AK rhythm , then me adding a harmony vocal , a bit basic but a Traffic song i've allways loved

I must admit that I don't know any of McTell's songs except "Beautiful Dreamer" and "Streets Of London". But I don't think the original version of this song can be much better than yours. :)
Very well done again, Rob. Although I'd prefer to hear you sing more original songs as those I've had the pleasure to listen to were awesome.

I've been watching the new series on the Great Train Robber Mrs Biggs which is about the robbery and his escape through his wives eyes......tonights episode got me thinking about what you know about your work mates...the answer is what they tell…
Rain for three days no sun Autumn Winter just around the corner....i dont feel so good.....i think i've got S.A.D.. everything is going Grey.......I need some colour and theres at least 5 months of Grey left to suffer ....Ahhhhhh!!!!!!!..........
While I was practicing the chord changes to 'The Boxer' by Paul Simon...I noticed chord similarities to Blind Faith's classic 'In The Presence Of The Lord' song. So I thought, hey, why not?
So I did a quickie, 1st take of it, and this is it folks…
This was the original version I recorded before I completely overhauled it (see version on "It takes a village album ). I wasnt crazy about it but hell I put time into it and completed it so why not post it up.
this is one for the over fifties
we strolled along
lost avenues
with no regrets
and nonchalance
who's kidding who
so confident
so bold and full
of bravado
when we were young
we knew it all
with certainty
you couldn't tell
cos we couldn't hear…
I wrote this after I sang with a friend
at his mother's funeral.
He had always wondered
why he looked nothing like his brothers...
DOOR MAT
Key - A
A) My daddy treated Mama like a door mat
D) Me and little brother didn't like that…
The song tells the story...
"You are tuned to WBAP, Fort Worth, Texas."
Daddy asked, "Where is Jimmy?" Daddy asking, "Where is Jimmy?"
Daddy asking, "Where is Jimmy, now?"
Daddy asked, "Where is Jimmy?" Daddy wondering, "Where is Jimmy…

Now I'm very perceptive, and I think he might have had a bit of a thing about Jennifer...so I hope he sang it as beautifully as you do!
I second what Bethan says. Again. :) Regards, Steffen
This is song is lovely with an exceptional vocal.
What a tonic! Gentle, intimate, peaceful... Mix is also outstanding (IMVHO).
