Lol I don't go on here often Stuart, hope yer keeping safe :) 

Strange but true...I finally got it sorted with Edinburgh and 1 year ago we were finally sorted. About  the 14th Feb 2020. Are you still recording?? Get yourself on Tiktok and i might risk a duet.👍😃

Not recording much, bought a tascam DP24sd a couple of years ago, but haven't done much with it yet! The thought is always there though lol 

Guessing thats 'dashing white sergeant' or atholl highlanders and then into 'Annie laurie' 
Apparently Annie Laurie was on the playlist for the Titanic. That tune always goes down well....wa wa waaaaahhhh 
 Enjoyed the listen though. Transported me back to all those memorable Thursday nights at Lochanhully

Thought i would re-listen 8 years later here today Alfie. Finally trying to get Timeshare exit sorted here. Easier than leaving the clubhouse bar on a Thursday evening in May. (Only just though)👍

If You Believe MP3

A first take acoustic cover of John Mayer's track Something Like Olivia to test out my new Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Studio bundle that arrived yesterday. Great piece of kit for the price.

Something Like Olivia (Acoustic)

Flower Of Scotland

An acoustic version of the popular song. Recorded basically to practice singing it and to work out the harmonies.

God Only Knows

REMEMBER YOUR MINE

Something stupid ft. Alfie

A difficult one to write, 18 years in the making. I remember this night as if it happened yesterday.


You burst in my bedroom door, pulled my covers to the floor
Hit the light in the dead of night, like a hundred times before
You said, “She’s back in town today, in a house five miles away
Won’t you come with me, I’ll make her see I can’t let her get away.”

I said, “You’ve had a couple more than ten, why don’t you stay the night and then
In the morning light you can do it right and win her back again.”
You said, “I don’t care what people say, it doesn’t matter anyway.”
A tight embrace, you kissed my face then turned and walked away.

I wish I could’ve told you before you went away
And if I’d only held you and never let you go
Who knows..?

The phone woke me up again, morning sun was shining in
Word gets around, “Are you sitting down?”, they started to explain
They said your car had left the road and that you won’t be coming home
I’m torn apart, it breaks my heart that I let you leave alone

I wish I could’ve told you before you went away
And if I’d only held you and never let you go
Who knows..?
Well, I guess I’ll never know

You burst in my bedroom door, pulled my covers to the floor
Hit the light in the dead of night, like a hundred times before
You said, “She’s back in town today, in a house not far away
But I don’t care, I’ll just stay here, I’m not worried any more.”

I wish I could’ve told you before you went away
And if I’d only held you and never let you go
Who knows..?

Fall From Grace

Who Knows

Set myself a challenge to write and record something in a morning and this is the result. Three hours from start to finish. All guitars and vocals are first take so forgive the rawness. A love/hate song. About alcohol! 

Old Enough To Know

Another new track, number 8 written and recorded since the beginning of lockdown.

Until The River Runs Dry

I am a Singer/Guitarist living in Grantown on Spey, Scottish highlands!
