RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD
A kind of Old Time gospel number, which, if you listen to those pre-war guitar playing preachers, are virtually indistinguishable from blues. Except for the lyrics…

You can do no wrong as far as I'm concerned. But I live in hope that you will. :) I couldn't find the clutch either. In fact, I shouldn't be legal on the road. How the hell do you sing like a chicken?? Are you some kind of hybrid? Dude!

I love that laugh - i love how real this album is. Lovely vocal Jess. I will try to more coherent later but Funeral has just started and I'm a wee bit distracted1
Wow! this is going to be epic. I'm straight into Haight Ashbury, that piano is superb. It's loose to the point of being shambolic but it has such a strange momentum that it never fails. Faved. And those twin flutes. wonderful.
This time paying homage to grandpa. Did I miss any dead folks out this album?
I often stop and think of William
Up on Skinners Ridge
He passed me on his way back down
As I passed from being a kid
A shame you’d say
But aint that the way
Things…
My take on Gumbo's Keep Your Eye On The Spot, one of many excellent tracks from his RPM2011 album 'Cat's Moustache'. It's something of a departure from the original, though I was trying to retain an element of the gospel so hopefully its soul…

Anyone else still writing songs?
this is the result of trying to listen to too many mixes in one day. Sometimes it's just easier to record something else.

Recorded Oct 2010.
It was meant to be a full band pop-rock song. But I started overdubbing on the original exploratory demo I'd done to work out the arrangement (with no click track). I kept coming back to it intending to start afresh... but…
I’ve seen the trimmings you destroy
The kindness that you avoid
Our subtle ways our sad affairs
Our vagrant airs dissolve to noise
What do you contemplate you're standing still
Your posture motivates the scene
You still don’t understand…
Comments on Gumbo's stuff
instant.. i hate 4 in the morning. 3 can still be the end of a good night. but 4's always shit whether you've just got in or just got up. Four in the morning!!!

your rpm in 2010 was one of our favorites. this is great. cant wait to hear more.

faved again. Will you play at my wedding? I'll see if i can organise one.
Love it!
I was watching out and it still surprised me! brill

YAY! here they come!!
this is very pretty
love the beat to this. Excellent!
had these on in the back ground while i cooked dinner i'll have to come back to sort out my faves but it works as an album - very solid.
Hooray - i can fave this too!
no excuse needed, decent filling makes the sandwich! faved
I knew i'd be blown away! It's like late 60's Temptations. Man, you got those Soul Man chops nailed. I'm VERY impressed.
thanks for the comment, MEJ I feel the same way sometimes but Hey! could you be more specific about what you think needs to be different?
just when i think it's safe you pull out the scary music! Excellent.
This is a lovely album. Exactly what i need after the last month. Thank you.
LOL Bethan - that is turning out to be true ....
LMAO - you're right, reg! I thought it was easy to play!
Brrrings it out !! love it Shades of Steve Harley perhaps and those harmonies are stunning. spot on and punchy as hell. Great song.
I'm still in mix mode so the first thing i notice how nicely you handle the change in volume towards the end. let's hear it for dynamic range!!
beautiful production! lol - i can't listen to music anymore - only technical details - can you tell i'm in mix mode?
