Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
watched a lot of silly TV a week I had the flu .... the title of this song is inspired from an episode of "How I met your mother" ... the rest of the lyrics are a mashup of silly nonsence and deep philosofical poetry .... yeah right :)
This is a more jazzy version of "The Devil drives a Volvo". Got help from my brother on the drums on this recording.
Vocals were recorded in a rented mini cooper south in spain :)
lyrics:
The Devil drives a Volvo
and wears a flannel shirt…
This track is great fun.
Love your voice as always.
Querky lyrics, great drums and pretty guitar on the end.
Yep, feel good factor.
Now, where is that plane ticket!!
here's the lyrics:
Inside a casket, ... broken dreams
six feet under, it starts to leak
six feet over he gets a whiff
assembles the puzzle piece by piece
on salty water a thought is born
sailing regardless of a coming storm
the mast is broken…

This started out as an acoustic piece that turned out kinda bluesy.
Inspired by current events.

How many times
How many times
can I wake up in my sleep
How many times
can I walk until my feet are sore
How many times
can I freeze my…

here's the demented lyrics :)
Spinning the wrong way
Little Tim has left the room
left the lady with the broom
she looks like she has a tail
she most certainly ain’t frail
she has a pointed hat
and carries a black cat
Little Jim has left…
here's the lyrics:
I am looking forward to the day
that I can say
I have finally buildt my home
No more walls to tear down
no more roofs to build
no more pain(t) to vent out
no more drains ....
I want to sit down in the garden
with the lovely…

After the damp squib of a start to the party it eventually got started and what a party it was........you should have been there....the whisky started to flow......it must have been the most debauched night down the cellar yet…
We forgot to mention that Reg visited Norm's place a little later and added some vocals. The video is a ride through the US state of Virginia. The Texas Tavern serves cheesy westerns (cheese, fried egg, burger, bun) in the downtown of Roanoke Va.
I'm finally happy with this track - v1 was too much of a nothing song and it's been bugging me all the way to the last night of the challenge.

If Ennio Morricone and Dr. Dre smoked a buttload of crack and decided to collaborate, except that one of them thought he was writing a soundtrack for the Godfather Part 11, and the other for Phantom of the Opera, Part 2, The Unwanted Sequel…
Sloane did me a favor & played an electric guitar part on this one. I had hoped to work with her more on this project, but she wound up leaving town to help take care for a recovering family member.

This is a short piece written for a friend who is developing a computer game for his degree. It needed to be loopable, hence the abrupt start and finish! Still a work in progress so i'd appreciate any comments about making it better
I strapped on my acoustic and had a go with this great song. Recorded in one go straight into my Boss microBR built in mic. No fussing around wit this 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…
This celtic folk piece is a collaboration with lyricist Donna Devine.
This is Donna's explanation:

A cover of Justin Currie's Sleep Instead of Teardrops. Recorded 2010.
It has always been one of my favourite Del Amitri songs. I was strumming away at it one day and my missus said I should record it...
Reg is back on the drink there was no escaping it. He found out that Desirea was not what he thought she was, she had been telling him lies and his hopes were dashed again.............. theres a little mess up on the Xylophone but what can you…
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.

"Afoxe" is a rhythm played by carnival groups from Bahia in Northeastern Brazil. It is named after an instrument that is traditionally used to play this pattern: an afoxe is a beaded gourd; aka "shekere". In this rendition, I replaced the shaker…
