... again ... for Randy.
Memories of old magazines gathering dust on the shelves with things you never could let go of.
Dirty chess sets hardly touched. Empty bottles of cheap scotch you never could get enough of.
And it's a shameful world…
There's gonna come a day when with the advancement of technology beautiful music like this will be able to be reproduced by the authors themselves and go to the top.
Just a simple song about a horsey ride. Little me and my Alvarez, recorded on a single cheap MXL mic., no effects.

Misty on my face is the love of gods calling me
Ice upon my skin made more painful by this solitude
Ride upon my broken steed…
... again ... for Randy.

This song is something special to me. I think it was special to John too. It hurts to miss people who are gone from your life, but I think it's worse to forget them.

Remake of another old song. This is little me and my big acoustic, recorded with two cheap microphones. The dynamics of this song make it next to impossible to get the flat sound I want out of it. Any recording engineers out there? ;…

But then sometimes in the colorless light of a hazy windy moonlit night, the feeling haunts you like you've known that you would always be alone.
But then sometimes in the sparkling sun, you think of things you should have done…
Experimenting with asynchronous, layered picking. I thought it would sound really cool. Guess what? It doesn't! ... Well, all of the mistakes aside ... it's growing on me.

This is one of my favorite Morphine songs. I can't compare to the original, but it's a song I've always loved, and I think it suits my style... if I have one. :) Raw, no mixing, no effects.

Hi gang.
The Proods are back....Brian at the helm this time.
Our methodology is thus....one of the 4 of us introduce a song, and then we'll bang out a finished track in under an hour with as few over-dubs as possible. This one we put some effort…
Agree with jimgoodinmusic... Byrds tone sneaks out on the guitar and percussion. Would love to find out who all of your influences are for the band.
In response to your hopefully slightly tongue-in-cheek comment about drum clarity to TonyCee... I always found letting the mics mug the kit like 3" away from everything and then an aggressive high pass filter got everything as clear as possible without muddle. That's exactly what professionals don't do... :D
Anyway, great as always.
wrote this about 10yrs ago ,drums programmed , mixed and mastered , produced , by myself , bass , rthm guitars lead guitar , vocals , backing vocals , by myself , hope you like it , cheers tony cee
To echo everyone else, this one has a great, clear overall sound to it. I would bring that clean guitar up in the break or bridge a smidge.... it's too nice to not get a louder voice! And speaking of which, nice vocals too. Always enjoy your tunes.
The clue is in the title Reg woke up feeling a little disgruntled with the world ....
Screwed up & wary
You say tell me your secrets
but all you’ll hear are my lies
The compromised childhood
remember…
Been busy all week preparing for the winter weather and getting stuff ready for the horses and sheep to see them through winter. But with the torrential rain today i thought a guitar day was to be and this came out…
this is a new song not much to it , all instruments played by myself , drums , programmed ,by myself, vocals and backing vocals by myself, thanks for your time ,cheers tony cee
Getting lost in the maze from time to time is just part of life
The maze of misfortune
I get one step forward and three steps back
Can’t see where I’m going
Lifes so dark and black
Looking ahead seems stupid and pretty…
This one is marvelously cool. The swing-ish notes and drumming are captivatingly disorienting in a great way. The lyrics wind up hitting close to home. I think I am mishearing the line in the chorus as "beneath my anthill parachute," which is fine with me because that's an amazing lyric. :) Great one.
Subdued - adjective: quietened and brought under control
poor old Reg has been told again.....
Subdued
Sky burning bright with that jagged blue
She’s Off to bed with that dinnner for two
She read youlike…
Simpler Days is a ballad by drummer-Matt.
While I was mixing it the words caught me off guard and the song stirred up some emotional stuff that I'm hoping might come through for the wider listening public.
This has a nice country joe groove and feel to it and I love the melody. It would help to share the lyrics they aren't really standing out enough for these old ears... not a criticism just sayin' I'm old. :) Thank you for sharing as always.
This is a song my late-night self apparently left for my morning self to think about. I admit it just keeps gnawing at me, maybe not in a good way.
...
Nineteen, standing by the ocean for the first time
Gazing long at the sea feeling the…
When the rain comes
as it always does
I remember you with me
Under the kissing tree
you fell with me
fell with me
You have been so far
so far from me
across the sea
And when the rain comes
as it always does
I remember you…
Reg had an apiphany life is short and getting shorter so get on with it, whatever it is you need to get on with get on and get on with it .....
Get it on
Go get your plan and tear it up
Lets all start again

this song is about 5 yrs old , rythm gtr/ lead gtr/ bassgtr / keyboards instruments / brass / strings / organ / played by myself , vocals / backing vocals/ by myself ,...mixed and mastered by myself ,...thank you for your time ,.....cheers tony cee
Another great tune! The first thing that caught me was the groove. The rhythm guitar providing the backbeat is awesome and as soon as the vocal kicks in, I'm sold.

Yeah, this is really cool. I wouldn't have known how to describe it, but Andrew's description works! It really felt like the drums were going to pull out and then jump into a Ringo backbeat through the chorus, then instead we got the brass filling in that jazzy feeling.
The solo is great too. Keep it up!
Mr. Greene
The most beautiful man I’d ever seen
Our high school teacher Mr. Greene
Little more than a child at seventeen
In love with our teacher Mr. Greene
Immature and so out of touch
Just a silly schoolgirl crush.

Powerful lyrics man. Sweet songwriting.

like secret thoughts exposed
Woah.... Heavy track!
This is so perfect. I admire your way of expression.
Actually i like the picking. I like something that is a little different from the noraml style. Dig the song, and did not even notice the mistakes.
Good song with strong and honest feeling and interpretation.
All great tunes well done.
Slipped past me somehow. Great tune.

You've been knocking these out of the park. Again beautiful sound, but more so beautifully intense lyrics that somehow hit close to home again.
This isn't just a great tune, but the guitar and vocals sound clean and beautiful too. Nice one.
Every time you post something new I expect some new, cool cat groove... and you never disappoint.
Dark but beautiful. The piano comes in with the exact feeling the song wove. Really feel this one.

Kept hoping to hear that bluesy harp say hello in this one. Great tune.

This is relaxing and intense at the same time. Great track.
There. Ruined it with drums.
This is fantastically unique and uniquely fantastic. It really draws you in. Beautiful.
I'd love to see a video of this. My brain can't wrap its, well, brain around what's going on. :D
This is haunting, sad, delicate and beautiful.
The song is indeed cute, but the lyrics might need a trigger warning.... :)
I love this jazzy style from you. Great tune even if it hits a bit close to home...
Your tunes still remind me of Daniel Lanois work. Beautiful.

I feel like I just read somebody's diary.... This feels brutally honest and the vocals and instrumentation are spot on. Very nice!
