This is a reading of one of my favourite books, that I read for my children, they are always totally absorbed not only is the story superb but the artistry by Axel Scheffler is also fantastic. During the telling of the story i must cover every…

Why?
Oh' I am not so ready in my heart
But I will reach for closeness to the wind
Fear stops what we feel.
I feel i know you now.

Let's talk of all the things we need to say
No whispers will suffice in our abode
Only song of what we…
a mix done on 11 - 20 - 2012

going to possibly do another take on the vocals or add a backing track

I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…
THE OPENER OF DOORS
THAT SLOWLY EVENLY OPENING LORD
THAT MANY WILL GET SUCKED IN
THAT MANY WILL GET SHUT OUT
FROM GLOWING TO CHANTING OF WORDS
FROM JOUSTING AND THROWING OF SWORDS

This was an RPM track back in the day, and I've been playing it various ways to find a setting for it within the band repertoire. This doesn't sound much like our band would do it but it came out nicely, so i thought i'd share it.

Thanks for the moment to think......

To think for a moment
Is the greatest of gift to me.
To think without fear
Better still....

For UK people who liked the Testcard in the 70's. Youtube vid attached. Started as a project, sent to Lady Jane who did her magic. Ummed and Arrred about it, and eventually thought "just upload". Enjoy.
New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Once upon a time there was a boy with tunnel vision hidden far beyond the castle walls of a lifelong prison. Captive to a secret that kept him there under lock and key. Imagine was his sanity.
Thirteen days before thirteen he broke a sacred vow…
I have always loved jazz and blues but never really had the chops to really play jazz. But I can feel it and I tried to create that feel with this tune using my sweet old 63 jazzmaster. This was also an experiment in doing a complete time change…
Waiting for something that would be: familiar feeling, isn't it? We look forward to when she comes back, look forward to when the morning comes; waiting to stop the rain (or when will finally rain...).
Life itself is a... waiting?
