I've been listening lately 
To the shite that they play on the radio daily
Nothing quite can excite, too frothy to sway me 
It’s all far too light more like coffee than gravy 

Where’s all the rock stars gone 
The ones who leave it all in their songs
The ones who grab you by the balls and make you sing along
And I’m not joking, these kids today
Not even smoking all far too gay 
And I mean that in the very best way
That you're supposed to use it nowadays 

Ladies and gents I don’t know the answer
We need 4 ill raised scally’s 
Not sixteen shit dancers 

It's so hard for real folks to make love with
all of the noise from this radio rubbish. 

Tell me, folks, what's your recipe? (grilled cheese)
First, dump creativity. (Yes please)
Make it bland for all the sheep
who walk blind through life, superficially. (Not deep)
Take their voice, give 'em words to speak  (thought free)
nor a choice but to hit repeat. ( bought three)
Prey on them 'cause their minds are weak, 
and likely to fork out about a g per seat, (fuck me)
buy your merch, wear it in the street. (ok)
Advertise your shit for free. (No way)
To feel a sense of community
though nothing you say, play or do is unique.  (Per say) 

It's so hard for real folks to make love with
all of the noise from this radio rubbish. 

Over saturation splitting at the seams
Radio rubbish just don’t appeal to me
Shiny shit, opium for the masses
Not about tunes 
Just folks shaking asses
It’s gone too far to save
Sgt pepper and the walrus turning in their graves 

It's so hard for real folks to make love with
all of the noise from this radio rubbish.

Right Now

Coming Home (2025)

Here is another song that was never released. Recently recorded. There are a couple versions of it.. I attempted " lead guitar " .. LOL  on it. The original version is extremely " Liggaty " with all the finger picking. But there was a lead guitar track on it that was.. pretty good. Id never be able to duplicate it today.. I would have uploaded it but the recording was NASTY.. just totally unlistenable.. LOL


I hate leaning on people to help me.. I know everyone has their own work to do. I tried to upload this last night but SC would not accept the file.. but it seems ok now.

Here I am hard at work to gather my back catalog.. upload it all in one place.  Its a mess... scattered everywhere... So many of you are so skilled in the studio with sound capture and manipulation. I spent almost 30 years writing.. learning guitar and singing. Then learning how to perform it for people. I could sit in a chair at a gig and keep people in their seats for hours at a time drinking the place dry..but I have the darndest time sitting down to try to get a decent sound recording. Woe is me..


When I began this uploading last november, I hadn't anticipated there would be anyone listening. It sure is good to not be alone doing my music.. its cool to be side by side with great people who also love to try to make beautiful sounds by moving the air around us with breath and motion and electric devices.

The lyrics are what they are :


Paint me on… color me in 
Color me in happy… smile for the season
You should have told me in april .. you should have told me in spring
tell me all your summer lies.. Find me a reason.. to smile for the season
Write me off… shut me out 
As I approach another bitter sunset.. … give me a reason..to smile for the season
You should have told me in april .. you should have told me in spring
Screaming in the moonlight … look for a reason… to smile for the season
Paint shorter conversations… color washed metaphors
As we shut our windows and close our doors… we smile for the season
It was a glorious april .. it was a beautiful spring
Memories in the autumn breeze .. show us a reason.. to smile for the season



smile for the season

This started off as a project that Mike of Music For Magicians had composed last year. When we discovered it, we asked if we could join in on the jam and ended up extending the song and adding new mystical synth parts.

Thank you so much Mike for working with us on this fun project!

There is a vocals version in the works too, featuring Masha and a guest voice actor. Stay tuned!

A fusion of Moroccan and Algerian soul — where rhythm meets romance and tradition dances with the future. From the heartbeat of Casablanca to the warmth of Algiers, every sound is a story. 8D, cinematic, and deeply emotional — crafted for every soul that feels the music beyond borders.

Une fusion de l’âme marocaine et algérienne — où le rythme rencontre la romance et la tradition danse avec l’avenir. Du cœur de Casablanca à la chaleur d’Alger, chaque son raconte une histoire. Un voyage 8D, cinématique et plein d’émotion, pour tous ceux qui ressentent la musique sans frontières.

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.
