This song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…

Something more mellow. Got the idea from an Andy Aledort column in Guitar World magazine but can't remember which one and can't find the issue now.
Thanks for listening.

The title track to this year's RPM album. The lines actually forced themselves into being and then straightaway demanded that no other lines should be written.
When the songs speak that loudly, I do what I'm told.

THE LIGHTHOUSE
You hide an ancient soul
Behind your tired eyes

Buried deep inside

I wrote this in 2001, and wasn't a good enough player to create a releasable version. After 13 years and many abandoned attempts, I finally got it onto tape the way I yearned for it to sound all those years ago. This has been my Everest, and I…

The poem is by Jason Kirk Bartley
This is in 19 edo and I play drums using a Simmons SMDP1 drum pad. The quality of poem is a lot higher than my music which is kind of an odd psychedelic blues not usually associated with the subject.

One of my favorites from this year's album, probably because I didn't have to write the back story.

This is totally different from anything else I have ever done, pretty crazy and very poor rap I am sure but I do like it and I would love to find an adventurous bunch of people to do it as a dance.
