Nearly 7 minutes long, it's a bit of a marathon, but then it wouldn't be 'Prog' would it? Guess not ... anyway, I like it. Sheer indulgence.

Singles 2023

Cherry Black

A throw-away Blues number? Who knows ... maybe I'll release it ...

I'll Never Let You Down

I'll Do Something For You (When You Do Something For Me)

From the album "This Life" here's a funky little rockette

This Life

Trying to Write a Love Song

Another from the album "This Life" here's a rather groovy Motown inspired track, yes indeed.

What You Got (Is What I Need)

Southern Nights. Someone already wrote that one, but we're visiting the States later this year (2023) so I'm just dreaming

Take Me Down

The 9th single this year - this one takes me back to my roots in the 70's where I was listening to the likes of Whitesnake and Molly Hatchet and the like. Find my other stuff on Spotify, Bandcamp and the usual outlets!

I Wanna Know

Recorded in Nashville this is untypical of me but a lovely song. It's written about some imaginary person, but on reflection it's probably about me.

Lonely Lady

Armageddon - always an interesting subject matter ... 

Time is ticking away
Running out every day
As the world turns around
The sun will rise and will fall
Shining down on us all
On our burial ground, ‘cos 



Chorus:
Somethings gone that was always there
It don’t exist anymore
There were flowers everywhere
It seems to me
We fell asleep on the job

Take the oil from the ground
And spread it around
Make all the people pay
Burn whatever you need
Sustaining the greed 
Then make the people pray, now 

Somethings gone that was always there
It don’t exist anymore
There were flowers everywhere
It seems to me
We fell asleep on the job

Asleep On The Job

Written and performed by Jay Murray, this is a song about the Coopers pub that has since been demolished near the docks in Liverpool. There was a recent 'reunion' gig in the Adelphi Hotel and this song was written especially for the occasion. It was produced in just a few hours for the purpose of having a backing track available for the gig, so the final version will probably be re-recorded 'properly' by Jay in the near future but here's the full version recorded by myself, mixed and mastered.

Coopers

Surf's up, baby ... oh yeah- Cover of The Atlantics classic track refreshed

We Tell No Lies

Emerging from the shadows of tribute and pub bands, Marcus Lazarus set out on the Blues highway in 2013. The latest band aptly demonstrates the eclectic
  musical and influences, ranging from Gary Moore to Paul McCartney. Indeed Marcus and Johnny Heywood (bass) and Lee Herbert (drums) are also part of a McCartney Tribute band, having played the annual Beatles Festival in Liverpool many times, including the world famous Cavern Club.
Complimented by Jez Arden-White (Guitar) and Ray Johnson (Keyboards) it’s a harmonic blues rock delight.
With 2 albums and an EP of original material, 2019 promises to be a great year for the band with various festival appearances and 3 new EP’s. Check out marcuslazarus.com for links to streaming and CD downloads. If you like blues, and you like rock, and you like a little grit then this is the band for you.
