Words and Music Dave Rose
Headphones best.
I read a book a few years ago by Robert Hughes called Fatal Shore. It is thoroughly recommended, telling the stories of so many of the people who were simply transported to Australia for the most minor crimes carried out largely by people who were poor and starving. Australia today has become quite fantastic but the conditions back in the day must have been horrendous and terrifying for those people sent there.

Lyrics
Doesn't matter what my name is or any of these poor souls
Transported to Van Diemans land for stealing coal

Broke a rich man's law and there's Hell to pay
Transported to this fatal shore to serve our days

Conditions are horrendous the work is killing us
Never enough food, the guards are brutal and cruel

Broke a rich man's law and there's hell to pay
Transported to this fatal shore to serve our days

What became of my family, they'll never know what became of me
Will anyone tell my story?
What will be my legacy or my history?

Now as ghosts we look across this harbour from across the rocks
All these people all these buildings its changed so much
No more this fatal shore......This is Australia

Fatal Shore

⚠️  Another new bug on my SoundCloud page 👀 
display problem, sorry friends, I must be missing some of your new songs but scrolling through the news feed is complicated

Hello,
Here are some songs wot I wrote. Mostly recorded at home as a sort of one man band set up.
Sometimes other musicians play on the tunes too.

A little stroll on the mild side 🎧

"Dave was awarded 4th best tambourinist in his cul de sac whilst still only 37, he still plays tambourine today whilst his peers have abandoned tambourine. Think that speaks volumes to Dave's commitment to his music". (Big Hits Magazine}

"Dave is a blues crooner who sings everything in B Flat" Rex Bone 



I have a tendency to remove songs to tweak them and reload. Sometimes they never return 🤔

Headphones recommended.

I have enjoyed music for as long as I can remember and cannot remember a day of not either singing or listening to music. I am self-taught when it comes to playing guitar but what I most enjoy is singing which I have been doing since around age 18. Now retired singing and playing the guitar is now just a hobby and something I do to help pass the time. Have always  loved the sound of a Martin guitar. Currently been playing a Road Series DR S2 for about 6 years. Thanks for listening. I also enjoy discovering the sounds of other talented musicians and singers here on SoundCloud.

Welcome to my SoundCloud page.  It serves as a jar of sorts, to catch the musical ideas flying around in my head!  My hope is that you find something to listen to that offers encouragement and refreshes your soul.

All music is original with a few exceptions (such as new arrangements of old Christmas songs, etc.).  All music has been composed and performed with absolutely no AI-assistance.  I primarily perform and record on the Yamaha MODX8, with an occasional recording on my older Yamaha Clavinova.  You will also find collaborative works on my page, featuring some other amazing musicians on SoundCloud.

It is a joy to share my music with you, and I hope you enjoy listening!

Hello! I’m a university professor of history who enjoys playing guitar and piano/keyboard, and occasionally composing — unpretentiously, just for fun.
Most of my recordings (made with a KorgD8, Audacity, and more recently Reaper for MIDI and the Spitfire Audio libraries) are entirely homemade and decidedly imperfect.
My music includes old songs (all written back in the last century; here I’ve only shared the ones I’ve reworked in recent years) as well as both old and new instrumentals — usually in several versions, some of which eventually disappear because they’re simply unlistenable.

Thanks for stopping by and giving something a listen; in the description you’ll often find explanatory notes or translations of the lyrics.
Here I’ve discovered a community of talented musicians and songwriters, and plenty of beautiful music to enjoy. Whenever I like, comment, or repost a track, it’s always the result of attentive listening. For the same reason, I’m not interested in trading empty “likes” without real engagement, and I won’t reply to messages from would-be promoters — follower counts don’t matter to me in the slightest.

P.S.: A prayer, a humble request to those who publish songs: use the description area to make the lyrics available... This would make listening to them more complete and enjoyable!
