Lockdown 2020. This was a suggestion by our friend Paul Matthews (check out his page: https://alonetone.com/IlshamOrchestrate ) Paul performed the piano and programmed the drums, strings and guitar tracks. Billy picked up the bass for the…

This is a love song for Idaho. Funny thing is I've never even been to Idaho, but I dreamed the chorus and the happy little riff some years ago, and it's stuck with me ever since. So, I filled it in with some verses and an outro that capture the…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) And here's another song from 1994, with a sparkling new "Andrew Russe Band" arrangement fresh from the broom-cupboard. Like most of my songs, it was written with an acoustic guitar, a pen, and an A4 pad. The ones…

Inspired by Steve Krell who wrote the first verse and chorus. Colleen Dillon wrote the second verse and Greg Connor, the third. Authentic Native American War Cry by Kimmie who has Cherokee heritage. V1- Steve On the banks of the Ojibwa…

Written for Minnesota Homebrew Radio Show's current songwriting challenge, "write a song with two words in the title starting with P". The term 'pseudo' means 'false' or 'pretend.' Pseudo-psychology, therefore, refers to a psychological practice…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me. It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…

So for the second in the Fusion Soundscape project, I envisaged a few characters meeting up in one of the lonely passageways in the Underground near midnight, and having a bit of a soulful jam....! Hopefully have captured a little of the bleakness…

Another in an endless string of recordings that would have been saved by a competent singer. Maybe. I like the individual pieces of this song, but I don't think I like the song as a whole. Okay... maybe I don't like the chorus at all. I don…

A new one Hope you like it.... KC -------------------------- When the plans you made don't turn out right When the goals you set are out of sight Your bank account on an all time low When you ain't got a place to go Time to get stoned…

I kinda like this one. The melody in the hook is kinda fun, and having the guitar play a melody of its own was something fun that I don't do often. The lyrics are stream of conscious garbage, meaning they are probably about the idiot in the…

OK, so after the Lockdown Orchestrations project, I have moved to a new series of pieces I am calling Fusion Soundscapes. What I am trying to do here is paint a picture using some sound effects, and with a mix of orchestral and electric/rock…

If you were to come over to my house and watch television you would think it was 1963.

nuclear bomb on nagasaki - to remember

(Remastered 22/10/2021) I was asked (told?) to upload something happy. Hmmm, I thought. This will end well... So, a few days later, I was rehearsing a pleasant little thing I wrote several years ago that has a working title of "She Was…
