The wife had the book "To Kill a Mockingbird" for her book club but life got in the way and she didn't have time to finish it before the club met...so of course we cheated and watched the classic Gregory Peck movie so she would know the ending…
I've gone a bit Bluesy on this one i got the French Horns out i blame watching BBC4...anyway hope you enjoy....
Counterfeit(Lyrics)
The night outside was as Black as coal
Her heart was made of stone
i couldn’t find no place to go
God did…
Igor sent me over this wonderful piano piece and asked if i would like to collaborate on it and i jumped at the chance.............Thank you Igor
Nigel & Mary's Waltz
Nigel said to Mary come Marry me
lets make a show we can both just be…
Can you imagine the uproar if they weren't ???........The drums have taken over.....what can i say!!.....what to try first?...I know I'll try a drum solo!!...Why Not?.....Watch out Ginger :dance4:
Damn good sounding digital drums! They must have cost you a fist full of pretty pennies! You play them quite well -- them some mighty fine beats! Rock on!

Gene, Farrel ( Lead Guitar) and Jarle(Drums) have out done themselves with this excellent backer allowing me to release my inner Percy on you all again hope you enjoy i know i did ......
Got a lot of bad news this week and this came out.......
i want to see the sunshine
come out through the pouring rain
i want to see the clouds break
i want to see this day start again
oh i’m gonna get down on my knees get down on my knees…
Commenting further -- oooh sooo good! What an amazing mix down and mastering job. The instrumentation is far out, it rules. Love the bass, the guitar, the special effects, EVERYTHING!
Another song created from watching too much TV....
Live in the living room or should i say Cellar.....
The Summertime's Leading me on (LiLR)
as i watch another winter fade and die
i know i’m never gonna get that time again
i know down deep…

Sometimes the simplest of mix downs -- a man and his acoustic guitar -- are the most effective, especially when dealing with such gripping lyrics as these. Rock on!
I didn't mean to turn it into a Ballad it just happened your honor
He Was The Gypsy King To Me
i sit alone thinking of my father in this empty room
and all that he’d done for me
and i sitting alone in this empty room, thinking of what…
I grew up in a 51 Chevy school bus, converted into a camper, with 7 other people, an ocelot, squirrel, and rabbit. My father traveled from state to state, show to show, entertaining strangers with his music while keeping the rest of us alive and together. To me, he was the king of the hobos. He's no longer with us, but your song brought him back to life for me, for a moment. Thank you. Stay groovy!

Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how
If there was one
How could he allow
What evil has been done…
A Christmas song about what really matters.........i got the idea for the music listening to Jarvis and his accordian the other evening so thanks J........

(Remastered 22/10/2021)
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…
Another earworm needing to be expressed - comes to my head when looking at the moon from my garden. I'd love some lyrics - "oh beautiful moon, dah de da da dah" etc but haven't landed on any yet. Its also a bit Taize like, except totally pagan.
When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…
Particularly following a very recent piece, Nordic Noir, I may have slipped into movie/TV/Game trailer mode!!! So here is a piece featuring solo violin that has been titled An Awakening...and listeners can then put their own imagination to work…
After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!
Hey Norm there was a knock on the door late last night and guess who was standing there all sultry and pouty .... yes .... you know who! .... it was her wanting in ..... I looked her in the eye and told her to go .... as she turned to leave I noticed her dress was so short I could see her stocking tops ...... I called her name .... Desirea she turned and smiled.........
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
The music reminds me of a scene from the streets of San Francisco then Karl Malden’s nose comes into my mind and my mind suddenly goes over the hills and far away ...I like it.
So the lyrics come from another age, but they sounded so relevant to the recent lockdown world, that I decided to stitch them into a completely different track.
So, there ya go!
Aaaaaaar - har har me hearties!! A swashbuckling adventure on the high seas....!! The BBC Symphony Orchestra to the fore again....such a pleasure to compose with.....

Great! I liked the 29 second very, but this is much better. I love the vocals, lyrics, and piano. Fabulous, y'all!
That should have fixed it Thanks for letting me know
However, the song dies at 29 seconds. :(
Quite cool indeed! :D

Rock on, guys!
Great lyrics, smooth and interesting strumming style, nice vocalizing -- an all around great job.
Commenting further -- oooh sooo good! What an amazing mix down and mastering job. The instrumentation is far out, it rules. Love the bass, the guitar, the special effects, EVERYTHING!
