Before the War -------------------------- Do you remember Those carefree years right before the war God, we were so so sure it would always stay this way Do you remember sweat from the ceiling and from the walls we didn't have a care…

My mind was going to some weird places

The depression got worse in young adulthood

Dreamy, dirty, synth echoes over a CR-78 beat.

Another collab for the Box of Frogs album coming soon......... Men in Trousers Watch out cause they are everywhere Their are watching you right now Their trying to figure out the where the what and the how Just how can they open your…

This is the 5th track in my album, Edolian, where I go through every EDO from 1 to 31 incrementally. So, this track is in 5edo (finally not a subset of 12edo), and I really like how it turned out. 5edo is cool in that you can only really…

DIRTY LAUNDRY Key C I got a call from Russell. He had to move his junk He’d filled his car. He’d filled his trunk Big black bags of something. I said, “What’s with these?” He said, “It’s dirty laundry.” I said, “That’s crazy.” So, he…

A simple one-track mandolin tune. In fact it's the first tune I ever made on the mandolin. I think it would be better with a bodhran drum accompanying it, but I don't know how to play those! Maybe someday this will work its way into something…

A collab with Mike_S over from the otherside at songcrafters on his instrumental track King & Country which he kindly took the lead off for me to play with and i came up with this Thanks Mike The people like ants looked up and they just…

This is a true story. Im pretty sure this guy still has a taxi job on the night shift in Denver. Too long since I’ve posted a song. Most importantly, I got Norm to dust off the skins and record some percussion for me. Good to hear Norm and…

(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…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) And here is the first reply to In Your Hands. I say "first" because I've found another one, When I Try To Be Me, that Mrs R says I have to do too... but that's unlikely to be the next one I post because I'm working…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…

Brian from A Beautiful Scene sent me the lyrics to his song and said "Do what you want." The lyrics really intrigued me, and I wanted the song to have the rainbow tone palette of colors and sounds that I suspect is the backdrop mentally to his…

Get well John Prine

Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…

This is a stripped down cover of the excellent Gary Fox song Carolina.

Here is a cover of Matt Ferrara's song "Obey" - Had this song stuck in my head for a good chunk of February, so I figured I would put it to tape. A little slower than the original with a similar feel. I really wanted to see if I could record…

Couch surfing with Aladin.

This would be cool with piano, right? And maybe Bruno Mars singing it instead or something?

The story behind this one is almost the same as "Swamp Thing," only this one spawned lyrics to boot. Major props to Erika for her fabulous vocal! Jon and I played the leads. I bookended the track and Jon did everything in between.
