Hello Hello The original of this song was recorded in 1981 Using my Permanent Adolescent technique of drums first. No click, no follow along to other instruments. Just the drums and the musical arrangement in my head. I joined a band in 1984…
And this is just YEAH... I've been checking out Sam Mann and Thee Apes on youtube... wow, you was rocking the ACTUAL strip... we was rocking The Quay in Exeter, Devon, UK

This is from the band Sam Mann and The Apes sometime in the mid later 80's. Brilliant guitar work from Al Teman. Great playing and singing from a top knotch Hollywood strip band.

Here we go again...
I didn't think there was anything left in the tank, but here we are.
Ready for a lie-down now!

**Ifs Buts And Maybes…
Great song. Was playing and singing along with it like I wrote it. I didn't know the word 'demo' still existed in music. It sure doesn't apply to this tune. Sure as a puffy(singer/songwriter/player) I hear the layers...but at the end of the song it was perfect as it was. I totally get the 'wait until you hear it with everything I hear' composer vibe. But this aint no demo. This is a song. Awesome I'm a wordy bastard considering I'm just your basic''ego driven organ grinder monkey'!

I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…
Swamp Thing is a custom built guitar by Tony Louscher at Luthier's Workshop in Green Bay, WI. I wrote the main riff three years ago and it sounded "swampy" to me. For the 2020 RPM Challenge, I dusted off the little riff and created this tune…
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…

Here it is in all of its glory...
THIS is the song that Mrs R and I had decided was a suitable response to a request to "Upload something HAPPY, stat!!!!!!!!!"
I tried to record it back in 2013 when I wrote it…

That's All…
A song for all the rainbow people; musicians, artists and healers, to name but a few.
A true collaboration for Jip and Lady Jane as they meet up for the first time in 32 years and, together with Mike and his witty one liners, come up with this…

OK, let's delve once more into the magical shoebox of unused songs...
I've already recorded several that were written in 1994 (Sleeping with the Ghost, Elizabeth's Room, With Mum Again, If You Knew, A Hundred and…
My credo belongs to this and many of your songs. The only old songs are the ones that have been on the top of charts. Everything else is brand new, mostly unheard and on it's way to the charts. You have great music. I hit the strip like the super ego driven organ grinder monkey I am. Nothing can truly put words to the experiences of 76 to 96 and so on
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!

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…
1994 offered just the kind of eye opener a nano second can unexpectedly bring you. You have a great soundtrack going for 1994. Please continue to indulge us.

And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.
On…
Well, I'm almost on a roll now - this little love song was written, arranged, and recorded in just a week. I've been meaning to attempt something like this for years, just never got round to it.
I'd actually settled down to finally record a…
A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…
A song featuring Tim Brown on guitar and bass, and Sam Mann on drums. I tried to get as mean a guitar sound as I could with my Les Paul with PAFs, and Marshall JMP-1 amp with Celestion G-10 20s, and greenback 12s, Bass is a Warmoth fretless ash…

Nice song, thanks for posting !! Actually we recorded this at John's garage studio. We did three songs on that session. Misery, PA, and Breaking the ice. Later on we moved back to the Dungeon and did like 20 other songs.
Your story made me listen to the song. It's great to be young and play, it's great to be old and play, it just great to play.
That’s one Great groove
Didn't know the name Lalo Schifrin... but I knew the song... oh of course! (Dean Martin, I have his version)... Anyways, cool version for us rockers :)
Wowsers. Yes, the band's killing it... but the vox - and those harmony vox - take it to another level
Stylish crashing bombastic yummy I like it but who asked me
Hehe - another "big smile on my face" track. I nearly choked on my sandwich when it went "Now Listen To The Angels"
And this is just YEAH... I've been checking out Sam Mann and Thee Apes on youtube... wow, you was rocking the ACTUAL strip... we was rocking The Quay in Exeter, Devon, UK
Love it.
Funky rock. Yes indeed. And the lyrics LOL - thems were the days :)
Oh yes!! Rocks - and a sax solo over a Van Halen-esque track. Brilliant. And the breakdown after that is superb. So you were vox? Mighty cool.
Yes. Love it.

I love your music. You never disappoint. Always makes me happy to hear your music. Awesome.
Apple eatin magic cup touchin all wetted up in drained wine! Nothing says love better than that. Always a pleasure to hear your goods Sir Russe!
All cool cajun and down with it!
How fucking great is this! I'm hitting the bicycle right now. In the head while riding will be Aha aha ah ah ah ah ah ah aha aha aha
7:11 am in Cali. . Happy As Fuck! Great sense of order. I'll be taking a shot of vodka now!
Bangin!
You are on a continued streak of nailing this shit. Awesome....Great together as a band feel. Boom. Conquered.......
I love this. Seriously, I mean I just love this....
So Damn Stately! You truly embrace the knightly lineage that surely must flow through your veins. Awesome musical piece!

So damn good...So it's gigging at the Quay..Truthfully how many took the dive in and yelled back, come on in, it's warm as fuck!

So very cool. Not my place, but I wish the outro was also the intro. I like what I like. I liked that very much.
Really really good. I thank you.
Great song perfectly executed.
A little bias from the ego driven organ grinder monkey singing and playing on this song.. I love this song.
Truly a song for a stormy day or a sunshiney day. A song for everyday!
Guitars are dominant and mean with a decent underlying tribal drum feel in support. Proper!
