I thought i'd take advantage of my cold-addled sore throat and put the croaky, deeper voice to some use.

All parts in this done acapella.

And, yes it sounds utter shite, I am aware of this. I may end up doing it again, but, thought it would be fun to inflict it upon the world.

Like always, not my lyrics or music and all that jazz.

Enjoy, feel free to leave a scathing remark. 

I'm A Gun (Lorne Greene cover)

I imagine the lyrics ring true for many besides me. One of my favourites from him, suitably murdered by me i'd say.

As always, music and lyrics are by the original owner and, this is purely for fun on my part.

Enjoy!

Do You Know How It Feels To Be Lonesome (Gram Parsons cover)

One more from Gram. I am sure I will exhaust his catalogue at this rate.

Obviously would work better as a duet but, alas, as previous song choices would indicate, I am without a singing partner.

Ah well.

Music and lyrics aren't mine, tis just a cover for fun and all that jazz.

Enjoy!

Heart's On Fire (Gram Parsons cover)

Been a while since I uploaded. This turned out ok, I think, could have been better. Still glad I did it.

Enjoy!

As per usual, this isn't my property, only a cover for fun, all rights belong to their respective owners.

April, Come She Will (Simon & Garfunkel cover)

Man, my production skills are getting worse, eh?

Usual stuff, not my lyrics and music, all rights to the original owners, etc etc

Enjoy!

Take A Message To Mary (Everly Brothers cover)

My first upload in quite some time, just got hit by an urge to do this song really.

All rights to the original composer and la-de-da all that jazz.

Enjoy!

To Sing For You (Donovan cover)

Just some nice melancholy jazz, recorded on a grey September afternoon. I rather like the Chet Baker version, that was what inspired me to do this one. Original composers: Don Raye & Gene de Paul.

Don't get used to such frequent uploads!

You Don't Know What Love Is (Jazz standard)

Hey look at that, i'm not dead!

I am aware I flubbed and, missed the last part of the last verse, but I quite like the almost sudden ending.

Not my song, obviously, please don't come and stamp on all my toys, Peter Grant et al.

Hope you enjoy!

Thank You (Led Zeppelin cover)

In spite of the way the world is currently, it gives me some solace to know that spring still springs, birds are swaying and trees are singing!

Created with MuseScore 3, composed by meeeeee!

The Spring Rapscallion

Another instrumental piece to tickle your fancies, why not.

Once more, created with MuseScore, composed by meeeee!

O'er That Misty Hill

Let it carry you away somewhere serene, if only for a few minutes.

Made using Audacity and my own voice. Photo was taken at the Longleat festival of lights.

Echoing Through The Mountain Pass

Part a piece about a cloud, part me apparently channelling my inner James Horner (it does sound a wee bit Wrath Of Khan-y in places, to me!).

Hope you enjoy.

P.s not quite sure why the picture is upside down, but i'm gonna roll with it!

Nimbus

Felt like limiting myself to fewer instruments this time around and, thought two cellos could produce something suitably moody for the cold weather.

Twin Cello Sonata No. 1

Hello there. I am just a simple Englishman with a penchant for butchering other people's songs. 

I apologise profusely in advance for the detriment of your aural health.  Now, if you made it past the disclaimer, enjoy my brand of wailing and strumming, won't you?  Of course feel free to leave me a nice remark, or a nice insult.  
(Actual disclaimer: Unless otherwise stated, all the music herein is the property of the original writer/composer etc, I in no way claim this work as my own.)
