I love to cover Wilsun's songs, but I also love to mangle them. This is the same, but different. It's shorter, but not shortened. So, yeah....

I decided to challenge myself by requesting some beats from a beat producer, Ant 'Brave Toaster' Hughes. One of the beats was named Popcorn Chicken. I added a few bits and pieces with my virtual keyboard (including a little Blondie tribute…

Where did this song come from? Let's blame Steve Krell for introducing the outlaw, misfits of society theme. It was just a laps of judgment I should have thought it through I swung and then I hit him And I did it all for you He…

(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…

A song that sort of wrote itself, quite quickly, wouldn't say it's a happy song, but sometimes you can't help what pops out. https://youtu.be/dXRczkBRPCk

Riding the wave Following the feeling Not sure where it is taking me......

This song pretty much sums up my life right now. No direction and no ambition. Maybe because it's SpringTime and Love is in the air. In keeping with the romantic nature of the season, it features: BANJO . . . . . The instrument made…
