A cover of Larry Wallis's fine ditty (it's always been one of my favourite Dr Feelgood songs).
This was my second recording with my Boss MBR, recorded early 2009. It confirmed for me that I was a "standalone recorder" kind of guy, and there was…

Rock instrumental. Recorded Christmas 2008.
I'd struggled with a DAW. I'd stopped recording. And then my lovely wife got me a Boss MBR for Christmas. I thought this little thing the size of a fag-packet would be a nice "scratch-pad" songwriting…

This is an oldie. Recorded in 2005. It was the first recording I finished on a DAW, but I'd played it a lot in the last band I was in (around the turn of the century). I think it was written in the mid 90s. It's about one of the casualties of…

A pop-rock thingy recorded in 2006. Can't remember too much about it except that it was a new song then, I spent an inordinate amount of time on the lyrics and arrangement, and wasn't that happy with it when I was done(!).
I quite like it now…

Acoustic blues. Recorded in 2005. I was trying to record something else, can't remember what, and the missus was going out. She had cyclist Lance Armstong's book, or was talking about it. Sounded like a great title for a song as well as his book…

Electric blues. Recorded 2007. I was learning how to use my DAW and trying to figure out how a one-man-band could get to sound like a bunch of old bluesers in a sweaty bar...

A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

A nice solid punchy classic Prozac offering. Love the bass on this song. Also from the basement.

Another basement practice song as you can tell by the initial hiss. Mostly beautiful, kind of self-indulgent and a little longish in parts. I also don't remember what this one is called.

Wait for the room to focus
Feeling around for closure
The whiteness of my skin
The pale reflecting eyes
The beaty of total darkness
Move to the door and open
Room after room of sorrow
Breathing through your mouth
Flooding from your eyes…

My hope erased by the wages of sin
I have no way to break the ice

She wanted more than the story, but nobody told her

But she'd like the story just the same, for when she gets older

Nobody remembers with our eyes closed tight

You say someones not much different

Used to feel the same as me
So warm inside
Used to care too much to see
The other side
You’re so far outside the lines
Your shapes distorted, undefined
Your color choices too
A wash and blurry, through and through

So wide awake the hands are still
Too tired to keep them silent
It barely pokes above the surface
It hardly registers among the crowd
So long and waves the farwell
We’d better tell the authorities
Goodbyes are so beautiful

It's a song where we can sing along
All the day and all the night
Shoot the breeze if you can't sing it right
Dance away now melody, dance away now
It's the way to fail more gracefully
See me jump up and fall to pieces
It's sad…

The same name calls me father
Reject the pharaohs promise
Hit one and feign the other
Another pyramid to build
The sky rejects the other
Full frontal luminescent
Hit twice but feeling nothing
Another suicide dispenser

Like to feel the falling rain
Shed my brittle skin
Maybe hard enough to face tomorrow
Find out soon enough, find out soon enough
And the river is clean enough to touch
And it washes away the bitterness
Cleaner than the falling snow
Melting…
