Unplugged cover of the Beastie Boys track off of their first album.
Beastie Boys have always been a big influence on me, great to cover one of their songs.

The song first came about at the back end of the 80's. I recorded the guitar and vocal for the songcrafters.org fest Live in the Living Room all in one take. Recently I added a bass part.
Another song I recorded last year with the new kit.
This is a cold war relic (written just months before the fall of the Berlin Wall) which deals with the difficult issues of Paranoia, Hysteria, Alienation and the power of the Press. Get out…
New song about sad events in Japan. Meant with respect and sympathy

I was out of town on the day
When the wave swept our world away
I've gotta find you, gotta get home
Deep inside the exclusion zone
I have to find you girl
The most beautiful…
Continuing my obsession with the Buzzcocks Spiral Scratch EP, this is a medley of the four songs made using an Android ap called Chordbot.
There's two versions, this one and the one next to it here. And some guitar played over with the melody…
Oh this one! Without a doubt :)
Listened to all four tracks as well. Nice one. I loathed the Buzzcocks in the late 70s, but I came to appreciate them a lot more later.
More Original song than cover, I think.
A re-imagining of the AC/DC story.
My Rosie is a bolemia sufferer and is in a coma in hospital. The story is told by the concerned partner...

Cover of one of my favortie Beatles songs, from the White Album.
I actually bought a capo for this, after 30+ years of thinking capos are for wimps.
The Songcrafters.org Beatles II fest prompted me to go ahead and record it.

Did this back in 2009.
Before me and Jim actually met each other...
The music was improvised to the notion of returning home from space.
Jim did the Lyrics in 5 mins over the net..
And here it is..

Track #3 from the "Someone Else's Hell" album.
Lyrics:
Familiarity breeds contempt
I'm tired of everybody thinking they know me
It's time for a change of pace my friend
A new scene to set on fire again

First track I produced on my DAW...just tryin' to get the feel of thing at the time (no manual...well...a manual, but it's in Japanese...so same thing). Anyway, it's pretty simple...programmed a drum track, threw down a fretless dub line...threw…
This has probably the least effert i've ever put into a song , i was sat at my computer falling asleep , when i had the urge to sing this beautiful George Harrison song , i could'nt be asked to get up and change guitars , so using my PRS Singlecut…

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
this is the first track of my 1st solo album "flying solo" don't want to swamp the place with all mystuff so will upload them gradually
written on september the 3rd 2010 this is what i said about the song at the time.....
was saddened to hear…
I wish I could do quiet songs. Can't do it, everyone always ends up loud. It's a skill you obviously have though, Jim, this is just dreamy, I feel like lazy summer is already here...
Cover of the Joy Division classic, with a little drum'n'bass thrown into the mix
This version from September 2010
The youtube version is my original recording going back to 1997.
Thanks for the comments everyone. You're right,this is done with love and respect, Joy Division are one of my big influences, especially going to university Manchester (actually Salford) in the Eighties.
It's a cover of the Boston song, More than a Feeling. In a sort of euphoric house style. Which isn't my normal style by any means.
It's not a song which has been a big part of my life, I heard it in the Men Who Stare at Goats film and could…

Comments on odh's stuff
Girls unplugged - love it Adam Rocked
Very enjoyable listen, Love the subject matter.
Hooked from the opening note through to the end. This track is the perfect payoff to the cool mood you've achieved on this album.
This is an absolutely impressive and compelling composition! I'm digging this playlist!
This is a great song!
Oh this one! Without a doubt :) Listened to all four tracks as well. Nice one. I loathed the Buzzcocks in the late 70s, but I came to appreciate them a lot more later.
Excellent cover nick
Impressive :-)
Punk on! Great job! Fab lyrics!
Nice one!
Marvelous! Great job! Rock on!
Oh, nicely done!
One of mine as well, good one....... I've been a wimp for years, mind you, took years to get my head around them :)
Beautiful, beautiful cover :) x
Oh yeah, very nice version. The song kinda passed me by, this one of those covers that wakes me up to the original :)
nice cover
Very cool cover. Super sweet vocals.
Sounds great, man.Good mix, excellent vocals. Love it.
Very nice,very very nice!
Good one.....

I enjoyed it. Like the bass and the subtle building on the arrangement. Not at all boring.
Really pleased I came across your stuff. You're my new favorite band...
I love the vibe and intensity. This is right up my 'street'.
Pink Floyd, Jan Hammer and Ennio Morricone - there's a supergroup I'd pay to see. Big sounds here, nice production
Something of the Dylan about it. Great mellow feel.
My kind of song. I think you're voice is good without the screaming too, has a kind a fragility which appeals. Good stuff...
Zombie, please, if you're offereing...
Nice pluckin'
Sehr gut, mag ich. Wicked
Great singing, nice cover
Lovely sounding instrument. Could use a flute accompaniment.
Moving piece. The shear weight of personal tragedy is overwheling and your music somehow seems to connect with it.
Beautiful
You've got a brilliant voice, very expressive. Loving the alt-country feel to your stuff.

New version uploaded. Fewer nits
Thanks for the comments everyone. I've got a better mixed version at home which I'm going to swap out for this one when I get a chance...
