Having fun (finally) playing around with the riff for this tune by Howling Wolf, which is based on a song by Charley Patton and another by the Mississippi Sheiks and another by Tommy Johnson and so on ...
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album
For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…
A fun childrens tune from 2008, it really ought to be a hot fiddle tune but i don't have a hot fiddle.
Old fox coming down the road now Bunny Bunny
Run Run Bunny Bunny Go
White tails bobbing in the air there funny bunny
Go Go Bunny Bunny Run…

Aarrhhh ye scurvy sons (and daughters) of sea-rats, the pesky pluckers have been at it again.
Pin back yer lug-holes or it's the plank ye'll be hoping for!

I wrote Dancing Vampires while reading the book "The Historian", which is a story of a man and his accomplices’ quest to find Dracula in present day Europe. I love history and all of its grit. This song speaks of primal human instincts. We are…
Inspired by a gorgeous recording on a wax cylinder by the composer, Tanburi Cemil Bey (1873-1916).
Performed on politiki lyra (classic kemençe), a small bowed fiddle from Istanbul.
Recorded at The Banff Centre, November 2008.
This is just a quick little track we did in celebration of reviving the recording computer. It is the opening track of a soundtrack disk for a friend who is running a Call of Cthulhu role playing game. He plans on playing it in the background…
I needed a place to host a work in progress where it wouldn't be obvious so you might have found a secret mix!!!
So that 4 minute song with the slide guitar that no-one listens to is gone ;-)
This started sounding quite Nick Caveish and at the same time I wanted to do something with Joe Meek; so it's a murderballad-variation on Johnny Remember me. There's stylophone and theremin in there. The theremin is quite effective at some points…
this is pretty ruff, but i don't see myself rerecording it anytime soon plus i can't find the lyrics and i'm too lazy to write them down ... anyways. i guess its just a bunch of thoughts about God, a little dramatic. enjoy!
OK it's the morning after the party at the China Quay, and our hero is waking up. What has happened?
Influenced by about 6 different doowop tunes (great for hangovers!)
I go back far enough to remember waiting for Ruben and the Jets to be issued on CD, but I think you might have me beat there, kirk. One of my favourite discs. I could get into some beefier backing vocals - that'd be fun.
Nice stereo guitaring, great rhythm.
Love it! Hot vocals, too, heheh, magic!
Who on earth does it remind me of?
Faved. and a fab solo - this has everything :~D
Fiddling around with an open G tuning and I found the chord that 'Prodigal Son' is based on (a Robert Wilkins tune from the 30s made famous by the Stones) so I had a play around with it, stopped for dinner and came back and wrote the lyrics…
@glu - true but it'll be a great party, someone might want to say it to you!
@Bethan - me too! Bring on the potions!
@kirk - it's tonight, and tomorrow til the money runs out or the ship sails!

Funk it up!
That's just the kind of anthem we need round here!
loved the rhythm in your vocals - and they are a good contrast to the backing. the music is mesmerising. Je vous remercier
Nice intro! reminds me of Jack L. Very cool!
Thanks to Bethan, or I wouldn't have known about this. Beautifully played. Have you got any more music?
Not a moment too soon!
Yep! we can see out again, now! This is definitely an up and at 'em track :~D
LOL Yes! That's what this needs - a video with thunderstorms and dancers!
Good! I'll listen to this and then go and mow the grass!
Missed this. Bravo!
Ah! Domestic Bliss! I like this version a lot ;~)
Excellent. You nailed it!
those harmonies coming up to 3 minutes make the back of my neck start to stretch! Sublime!
FUN KEY !!
Brother Ray. Yes, and some Strummer, too. Kicking!

lovely contrast between the pace of the guitar and the laid back vocal. Great! Reminds me of Nick Drake in lots of ways.
@glu - true but it'll be a great party, someone might want to say it to you! @Bethan - me too! Bring on the potions! @kirk - it's tonight, and tomorrow til the money runs out or the ship sails!
Hahaa! Certainment! Bring your potions - the more the merrier!
