Who I Used To Be

Hey Michael

Just what the world doesn't need - another protest song !  Thankfully, Chris Dempsey didn't protest too long before applying his production skills. Thanks also to Allyson Ross for the illustration.

Down With This

I have no idea what this is about. Probably trying (and failing) to harness my inner Dylan. My thanks again go to Chris Dempsey for his always-sympathetic production.

Walking down the highway

Song about the closing of Polkemmet Colliery and a wee bit about the history of Whitburn.

Tearing Down The Winding Gear

It slowly dawns on you that there may be a pattern to the absurdity ... a pattern that mimics a pointless if entertaining game show. Remember to keep smiling through every round and especially when you get eliminated.

Japanese Game Show

Looking back with gratitude at those who have been dear to me over the years, some of whom are no longer with us. Another track sympathetically produced by Chris Dempsey - thanks, Chris !

The people I've known

Does anyone else feel like this right now ?  My thanks go to those of you who help me get through it all, including Chris Dempsey (who produced the track) and Allyson Ross (who illustrated it). Oh, and Annie Townsend and Irene Szymoszowskyj (just for being themselves !).

Downward Spiral

A folk /rock/pop song about a controlling relationship, now broken.  
Many thanks to Zoe Cochrane for singing this song with just the right sassy attitude.  Thanks also to Malcthep for the bass and encouragement; Chris Dempsey for his encouragement and his help with the mix; Michelle Hutcheson for suggesting Zoe as my singer and to Anne Macdonald and Levi the Cat for the photograph!!

CAT’S GOT THE CREAM

I don't think we can help what kind of music we like ! With me it began with the Beatles, then gravitated to to old rock'n'roll, to the blues, and finally to a long love affair with country music. My thanks to Chris Dempsey for his production skills, and to Iain Sinclair for his photographic skills.

A country mile

It's funny how the fates (or is it the stars) can affect our lives - says he, not believing a word of it......   My thanks go to Chris Dempsey for his celestial production, and to Allyson Ross for the loan of her 'golden globe'.
