Final version
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…

I wanted to have a banjo fiddle tune but i still haven't learnt to play either instrument, so this is my famous 1 string banjo technique, with mandolin and guitar. It's style is inspired by meeting Morgan O'Kane and Ferd 4 last…
Final version
it needs a fiddle but it has a mandolin, a chicken banjo and some excellent backing vocalists

One of my heroes. Willie McTell was blind from birth and travelled all over the south in the thirties at a time when many people would never go more than 20 miles from their home.
Plus nobody sings the blues quite like him…

Cover versions always completely thrill me. It's like someone genuinely didn't think your song sucked. I love this - have added it to my re-imaginings playlist. But actually I started this comment to agree with Regs, so to get to the point, your vox sound amazing.

A song for my daughter.
My blue-eyed girl
Living in your blue-sky world
I'll do my best to keep the clouds away
Life is better on a sunny day
Smooth the road out where you go
Let your light shine and watch you grow
Cave Street posted a track recently, their contribution to the Woody Guthrie Project, organised by Akron Family.

I wanted to take a shot at this too, so here's my demo. It was really just half…
Post RPM jammin'. I don't feel much like cleaning up after RPM. Not yet anyway. I think my little Casio took a beaten and went out of tune. I did this arrangement with just the Casio, guitars and
harmonica, hence the annoying piano and strings…
I know, you think I've completely lost it. This is actually a cover tune. Originally done by Wall of Voodoo around 1979. I did it from memory and ear, so I'm not sure if I got the notes or the Key right. It don't matter though, It was fun.
I…
I'm on this like a cop on a minor traffic infringement!!
Great cover! this is right up my street/prairie.
Y'know Wall Of Voodoo themselves were covering this theme from the Clint movie? Perhaps Jackie Mittoo's reggae version was the first cover?
Bit of a waltz.
Everything I know about dancing I learned from watching.
This is my piano debut.
Bethan deserves some of the blame for this one somehow. Thanks.
Some shun or dare not partake in the discussion of passing on from this life. Many search for meaning and fanciful places to reside, after their earthly shells have been left behind. This song is sweet reminder that ignoring and falsifying of…
I was listening to Leonard Cohen a lot this winter, and these lyrics sort of came out from there...don't know what they really mean, i was more interested in trying to see if I could mimic Leonard's style, which of course I can't, but this was…
This songs reminds me that this is the moment i have. No longer looking for the dawn for the dawn is here.
This is the moment
this is the moment
that i've been waiting for
I've been waiting for
the dawn and the dawn is coming soon
