Thanks for listening on commenting, James! And I love it when you tell us all something about the background of your songs. I wish I'd have the time to listen more often. You are one of the last "true song writers" IMO.
I like the way you play the voices against eachother. Very strong melodies.
Also, Thanks for listening to my music and commenting. The song about Jack Hardy is a very "in" joke. I make gentle fun of an American legend. He's gone on since then. I played it once when I opened for him. We were friends and fans of eachother.
@doktordoktor:
Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
It's actually more abandoned than finished, as I did not want to wait for real drums any longer. But I might revisit it one day and finish it off. :)
When I put these last 3 songs on itunes, my computer did something weird. It told me that these songs were already out there on the internet somewhere. So, in order not to infringe on any copyright laws, I would like to assure everyone that NONE…

I've just listened to some of your songs, and I like them all. The songwriting, the arrangements, the performance, the sound quality - all is excellent IMO.
I'll be back to listen again. :)
I love the sax too. And the harmony vocals. And the lead vocal. And the arrangement. And the vibe. ;) :D
The new mix sounds pretty good on my speakers.

My closest friend Brenda McNeill wrote the lyrics of this song as a dramatic monologue, and once she showed it to me I just had to turn it into a song:
She swept in, an hour late

Your songwriting skills are really admirable. Putting a free-form poem like this to music sure isn't an easy job for most people. But your music and the lyrics always go together like hand and glove.
Great lyric, btw!

This is a Ralph Mctell song , a very underated British singer / songwriter , probably famous for one song , The Streets of London , but in fact wrote many great songs , he wrote this while working on a building site before he was signed by a record…
I must admit that I don't know any of McTell's songs except "Beautiful Dreamer" and "Streets Of London". But I don't think the original version of this song can be much better than yours. :)
Very well done again, Rob. Although I'd prefer to hear you sing more original songs as those I've had the pleasure to listen to were awesome.

Steffen

This one is really nice. I'm not sure if the sound quality was intended that way - it's probably owed to the equipment you use, BUT it really adds some nice aged flair to it and suits the song very well IMO.

Nice tune Steffen : )
Really good. This is a great arrangement Steffen.

Hey J.L. and Bethan! Thanks for stopping by! :)

This is great! Everything sounds just right.
Lovely song. Great vocals, nice guitar, good arrangement.
Very nice!
Spectacular track folks. Top of the line. Head of the class.
Top quality post, great production work made easier with a top class bunch of musicians.
Silky. For some reason I'm getting a Sade meets Genesis vibe (maybe it's the snap claps ? dunno) Solid performances all around.
It's like a strange mixture of The Call, Pete Townshend and E.L.O. Lot of cool stuff going on.
I love your guitars, man.
Brilliant!
Great song... stunning production. Loved it!

I second what Bethan says. Again. :) Regards, Steffen

I love the harmony vocals. Another good song.
I'm with Andy. Your songs sound very natural. Very good work.
Nice 80s sound. Brings back memories. :) Regards, Steffen
Your stuff is so crazy, it's impossible not to like it! :) Regards, Steffen
Very nice! I must ask a Russian friend of mine what that all means. :) Regards, Steffen
Perfect work, Errol - I like this, even though I'm really not much of a country fan. Regards, Steffen
Must have been a great weekend, Tharek. Great collaboration. Regards, Steffen

Very pretty. The piano and the guitar go together well.
