Cover of the frankly mental 1968 Velvets song I Heard Her Call My Name. It's a fairly straight cover except for two things. I wanted to bring in some of the feel of Suicide's Rocket USA, also I swapped out the lead guitar part from the original…

As suggested by Haylie in the Songcrafters Suggestfest. Always been a seminal song for me (i.e. the Soft Cell version). Great to have the chance to cover it. Thanks Haylie 26/10 - I wasn't happy with the vocal, so I did a more character…

Cover of T.Rex's primeval Buick Mackane

Made as a part of the Songcrafters.org Suggestfest. Suggested by PeteC. I've done a Depeche Mode song before but wouldn't have thought of doing this one. Actually the words for this are poignant at the moment because I have a 4 month old daughter…

Original song written around 20 years ago. This a ground up new version. I was experimenting with GarageBand loops for some of the drum parts

Cover of the Blink 182 song. All done in GarageBand except for the crappy vocals. I have to own up to those...

Arrangement for Piano Quartet Cover of the Cure song. In a sense

Cover of the Eels song Climbing to the Moon, from the Electro-Shock Blues LP. I made a suggestion for Henwrench in the Songcrafters.org Suggestfest of an Eels song that he should cover. Then I went ahead and did one myself (a different one…

Cover of the Adam and the Antz song, for the songcrafters.com suggestfest

Jim / Old Rotten Head added the fine vocal

Instrumental version of the Sparks classic.

Done as much as an exercise in learning GarageBand on my iPhone. The backer is done entierly in GB but had to port it out to my Zoom R16 to record the vocal parts and master. Came out alright though I think.

Here is the first song that Morrissey and Marr wrote together in their first session in Steven's loft, Summer 1982. Before even the Smiths came into being properly.

Cover of the Morrissey song Disappointed from Bona Drag, if my memory serves me right.

Back to Basics cover of the Smiths song

Cover of the Smiths song from 1983. One of the big influences on my life. For the Songcrafters.org fest. I've added my own 'Newport Remix' at the end in the style of 80's remixes.

So here is a piece which I first wrote and recorded around 20 years ago in the early 90's. For a long time it had no title, just known as "bounces along keys". Lately I've been toying with the idea of rerecording it. Then a couple of weeks…

Song I wrote nearly 20 years ago, appearing here in a fresh new version, with a whole new second verse

Cover of one of my favorite songs. Nuff said...

Heart Shaped Box the Nirvana song. In a kind of a dub style. It's a new mix of what I uploaded three weeks ago (the add a new version function failed for some reasong). Anyway, better mix, louder guitars.
