Love that "I want you" ... insistent and, er, creepy... And that spoken section is brilliant... it sums that awful situation up perfectly... there are no winners... only losers... Poor ole Reg! How on earth is he gonna talk his way out of that phone message?!!!

I was going to do another instrumental but heard a song at the start so changed direction and came up with this one...
Another day comes
Yesterdays youth seem miles away
As age creeps on day after day
Life isn’t what it used to be
And no…
Glad you changed direction - powerful song. Liking that insistent piano motif... during the instrumental (cool wah on the guitar!) I was suddenly aware of why I'd been feeling on edge all the way through... kind of focuses me on the lyrics. Cool.
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…

A live studio take,made in San Francisco's "Different Fur Studio"deep in the heart of the "mission district"..a live audience made it a lot of fun!2010
My uncle used to tap his foot and sing "six feet under, six feet under" and my grandmother
would tell him to stop and say it was bad luck, so I made this jam based on his melody.
Well, you are not going to often hear a 70′s metal piece from me. I have to plead affection for genre as it is what I grew up with in my garage band days. In this piece I put to use my stratocaster copy strung up with “Not Even Slinky…
I watched a few episodes of Metalocalypse and Dethklok inspired me to make this jam. I don't think it turned out "metal" enough though. The harmonized sweep arpeggios were the hardest to play. Hope you like it.
Final version
One of my heroes. Willie McTell was blind from birth and travelled all over the south in the thirties at a time when many people would never go more than 20 miles from their home.
Plus nobody sings the blues quite like him…
This time paying homage to grandpa. Did I miss any dead folks out this album?
I often stop and think of William
Up on Skinners Ridge
He passed me on his way back down
As I passed from being a kid
A shame you’d say
But aint that the way

This song is sort of about making a clean break, killing off the lead character in your story and burying him along with all his sins before the inevitable happens, and the bad guy gets his. Initially came from a jam with my mate Ben Price who…
You do have a lot of ideas with Mr soul, bring him with you in June, there is plenty of room in the cellar............ like the marriage between the guitars on the solo and the tinkle on the keys....yes....yes indeed
~Decrepit shadow of a piano in the shadows of former visitors~
I've played in such a cafe, a long time ago, for a meal/drink, thru the night. Surreal it was; second life. Yeah ...
A dramatisation of events from school.. hope 'Shaun' never hears this, and if he does, that he likes it in someway, and that things turned out alright in the end..
It was always rainin.
It filled him up
It summed it up
So perfectly
How nothing…
a person is like a clock

and it doesn’t tick-tock anymore
then you are dead
