I was listening to the first wondering how you were going to get guitar and bass into it... and there they were :-)
Huge sound, works really well. Vocals get a bit lost in it for my money - but I was listening to the guitars by then!!
Wow...Andrew you are too kind. As a teen I would fall asleep too Electric ladyland or Axis...etc...maybe in some weird way it subliminally affected me...haa!
Back for another listen. I went to bed buzzing last night because of this. Over breakfast, the missus had to put up with me explaining and miming the virtues of this performance... (poor girl)
That entry at 1:19 - crumbs. And 3:38 til the end... And the end itself... It sounds so "live" that I'm expecting crowd noises!
Woof! Lovely.
When you want to do it, you've got the "expressive Hendrix" thing completely and utterly pegged - how to play it and how to record it - I'm in awe.
I know guitarists - and you probably do too - who'll sit around saying "oh so-and-so just copies Jimi/SRV/whoever" ... don't ever listen to them - they're just jealous lol. They bought the right gear, the pedals, whatever, and they still can't make the sound...
You've got it in the fingers/brain/soul, and I find it a joy to listen to.
Magnificent stuff.
Trippy and unique....I think I was hearing some beat boxing or a sampled beat box goin on in the rythym? The vocal eq'd like that falls right in place..)
Please also listen to the first part of this track, "Man of the morning fog".
Lots of letters downstairs.

well first we must know what John Capulator…
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
Soulful...always playing for the song, a musician's musician. I dig the low organ and how it pops out at the end of the bridge. Another Great performance.
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…
None of us knows where we'll be tomorrow,
Let alone 2 weeks from this date.
Will I still be in this place?
"It's okay", she says, "I'll definitely call you later."
If I don't go and forget to,
And if I'm still living here.
Can we say we see a…

Andrew...best song I have heard in a long long time...i am blown away. Everything is perfection on this. Your voice is great...your voice is similar to Ed Roland from Collective Soul...but more soulful....I must listen to this 500 more times....thanks for sharing.
Wow...Andrew you are too kind. As a teen I would fall asleep too Electric ladyland or Axis...etc...maybe in some weird way it subliminally affected me...haa!

I like the tune! I saw G3 in '97.
Very nice guitar playing, thanks for the song comments!
OK... I've got to dust my strats off now (I've been enticed away by a cute 335 recently).
Thank you my friend. I have never been much of a shred meister but I try to at least phrase my lead lines to fit within the song.

Great vibe on the lead, Smart playing, not too many notes,but rininging Out all the vibe and tone!!!!!!!

Loving your stuff - fantastic guitars on this one. So much expression in the lead.

That is a great track...i dig how it builds up gradually. I dig your voice....without verb it has a Jason Mraz quality....awesome vision here .
Trippy and unique....I think I was hearing some beat boxing or a sampled beat box goin on in the rythym? The vocal eq'd like that falls right in place..)
This is again another unique musical experience. It is great to here what musicians around the world are putting out there.
These damn dead guys are always playin slide guitar better than me! First Duane Allman and now Cobain! Lol!
Soulful...always playing for the song, a musician's musician. I dig the low organ and how it pops out at the end of the bridge. Another Great performance.
Great tune! Killer production. The rythym section is very Beatlesque! Especially the bassline. Good to know my homestate is producing good tuneage.
That is crazy how it showed that info before I processed all info...
Haaa! Maybe this is better.
Haa...doesnt feel much like Christmas these days....hi temps today 106 degrees....it was 116 on tuesday....
Dude...this song is killing me. That slide guitar is placed perfectly in the spectrum...everything is....god damn that is a good tune...jeez louise!
Who do u think u are making great music like this! Lol! This is spot on perfect. Radio needs music like this...A+
Andrew...best song I have heard in a long long time...i am blown away. Everything is perfection on this. Your voice is great...your voice is similar to Ed Roland from Collective Soul...but more soulful....I must listen to this 500 more times....thanks for sharing.
Great playing, nice recording and above all REAL instruments....i love the air coming off the drums. ENcore!
Made morning all good.....its has a great new orleans style groove...reminds me of something Robben Ford would be layin down....love this stuff...
Brooding like Nugent....cool as hell
Nice cut!
I dig your voice.....its very unique. Keep a postin.
