hey man, another cool tune...they're all great actually...i love your mandolin playing throughout the album too! well, you know i'm partial to that...love all the lyrics too
one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
A happy song about being left by your no-good spouse. There's a word for the attitude in this song but I can't think of it right now ...
this is now a tidied up version 18/3/09

this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head
would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in
thanks
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…

I know I sent you a private message about this at RPM, but it's tracks like this that remind me what I love about music. Thanks so much and faved (as well as a few others) I'm still only halfway through too :), I think I'm gonna have to make an RPM mix CD this year!

4 queens to run for cover

Timely, mellow, and fun. Have a great Paddy's Day, Greg.
(AND this drives us nuts. You can shorten Patrick to Pat, but Patty is a girl's name here, so it's St Patrick's Day or Paddy's Day.)

RPM 2024 track 7
A good friend of mine has a Samoyed. This is a song about him.
I was hoping for a kiiind of Cheap Suit Serenaders feel. Acoustic guitar, a 1920s tenor banjo and a brand new mandolin.
When I was small I wanted to be a girl and I didn't even know that was possible! Imagine if I grew up 30 years later - perhaps I would have had a very different life.
Written and recorded for Record Production Month February 2024 for my 10-track…

i was alone for a time
when the rabbits start to run the rings around my eyes

love this vibe...
Cheers! Some good drowning yourself in whiskey music. Catchy in a good way.
Yawl did good on this, I love WG. Thanks for the link!
great old timey feel...right out of woody's boot heel
Big fat fave. Love this, Stu - your voice sounds awesome (and I love those low down dirty notes especially!).
Really enjoyed that Gumbo.
Great tune, well done!
Beautiful...great job man!
nice...
very nice interlude
I like both versions! Great album!

Yee-ha! I <3 this. *sings along in campfire stylie*
Classic, 'bo! Love it!
Great playing, Sir.
*agrees with Jay* Can I just come along and cook the beans?
Another one to keep for those nice summer evenings. I wanna go camping with you and a couple of guitars Stu!
This one had me wanting to play along
I'm keeping this one for myself for summer.

Good solid album, and this is a cracking track!
This just came up on the Newfoundland Party feed. So catchy. Good job folks.

Thanks for listening, Sister. It means a lot to be back and have you hear it. Yes! Here's to next year!
Curiously, I can hear Dean having a go at this. Not the orchestra, I can't do orchestras in my head, but Deano? Yes indeed!
Leafy walkways, cappucino, and a need to send flowers is exactly the feel I was going for!!
I'm so relieved that it's recognisably a tango :-D
Marz, we were chatting about the pros and cons of including drums and I said I would include at least one this time around. This is it!
Ha! Opener? This one nearly didn't get included for being 'different'. :-D Shows you how much I know!
Thanks folks. What does 'quirky' mean these days?? Do I really want to know? To me it is high praise!
Yep it does help to be able to picture a samoyed running about ;-)
Good morning! it's a drizzly day here and this is perfect for dancing around the kitchen while the kettle boils 💖
Nice guitar crisp guitar. Is this the harmony again?
What a cool reggae vibe. Sharp!
Nice. I like this guitar!
This is great, Mikey. Nice heavy groove, catchy melody. This and Midnight are the standout tracks.
Ha! Yes. My voice was shot on this one but I wanted the character to sound old so it felt appropriate :D Thanks for listening
This is great. Do you all have a version posted?
Lovin' this one too. I'm glad your alt sensibilities were unsuppressible!
Yes! This!!
