So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording. I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…

Finally, at last... I've got something finished... Been working on this for a few weeks. A bit of a rocker... (and an aging lecherous one at that) I got it as close as I could and then mixed it loud... I've over-cooked it slightly - but…

Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009. I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in. The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…

First new one from me in a long time. Kind of a love song, I guess. Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering! **** **Shine - A A J Russe** On my way…

150211 Tiggy Acworth Feat Mark Barnwell on Spanish guitar. It always feels so good when we're together.

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…

HEAR MY FINAL SONG Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards Two were dancin', one he played guitar He was singin' how she broke his heart Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air One was flirtin', playin' with her hair He was…

#RPM Challenge 2015#

This is my cover of the Twin Peaks Theme, "Falling." I've always adored the vibe of this series. This is my attempt to capture how it makes me feel. The original has music by Angelo Badalamenti and lyrics by David Lynch. You'll have to be…

With Big Time Operator, who originally uploaded his awesome music with the offer that anyone can add vocals...too good to miss! Love this music, and had loads of fun wailing. Thanks Chris! Played on BBC Radio Introducing. :) http://alonetone…

. Full moon, full of mystery Full moon, shadows thru the trees I can feel your spell, I’m beggin at you please So long I been straight and true No wrong has come into view I can feel that dark side, all because of you Way down…

I Know, I know, it take balls to cover Bono. I adore him honestly. This is just a vocal exercise for me during my RPM efforts. I gave it hell though right?

A creepy/gloomy with a bit of a stab at electronica and a slightly more aggressive stab at techno in the center. That mood seemed to fit the poetry. Falling Autumn leaves sound like this in my head. CAN'T RESET The many poems I’ve…

When my 'whole morning for recording' turned into 30 minutes, I did this. Beep beep; Driving all over the fucking road. Left right left right doesn't really matter. In n out of lanes in my mitsubishi colt Left right left right doesnt really…

Something for RPM. This piece of filler features a transaction between myself and my 2 year old daughter at her pretend shop. I was the 'custer', she was the 'shoppy keeper', and I was encouraged to ask her 'howzamuchit?'

In one hour or less - with mallets. I guess I'm just the guy to do the mechanical, electronic, energized, futuristic version :) The end is the best part.

For Gene's challenge. Keeping always in mind the K.I.S.S. principle. (Keep It Simple, Stupid!)

Well look what Gene started... I decided to put my own thoughts on this one, and look what weirdness popped into my head this fine evening.... Thanks for the fun idea Gene!!! Here are the lyrics: How To Assemble An Android © 2015 Colleen…

for Gene's contest...great title and inspiration!! “How To Assemble Your Android” Yesterday a box of parts came to my front door I thought she came assembled, ready to be my whore Tore the box apart and to no one’s surprise I was missing…

A cover of Justin Currie's Sleep Instead of Teardrops. Recorded 2010. It has always been one of my favourite Del Amitri songs. I was strumming away at it one day and my missus said I should record it...

Well, here we go then... **** **Cobwebs - A A J Russe** Yeah you know what it is that I want Oh you knew, didn't you, before I did? How many times did you wonder whether I would dare? Oh never mind... Take off your underwear Over…

A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out. 37 SAILS Thirty-seven sails be a full rigged ship Open up ye hatch and pour ye spirit down…

I will go anywhere as long as it is forward with the one who created me.

My attempt at writing a bluegrass tune and an opportunity to try my hand at some flat pickin' ... loosely based on a friends experiences growing up in a small town in the prairies ... where everything is flat ... you know, a place where you can…

Rock n Roll inspired by Hunter S Thompson.

A classic, guitar-driven blues tune.
