Beautiful radio program...So awesome Phil...So cool & wonderful to hear about your musical life 💟🙌💟

love the sound and feel on this Phil - Steely Dan comes to mind so often - beautifully done.  Gotta go back to listen to the interview now

So nice to hear you at the radio...awesome song!

Always good to get a radio interview... get your songs to a wider audience, Phil. Good one! A history back to 1979 is also noteworthy... all those years of experience. No wonder you write such good songs with such depth.

Out Of My Mind

Rock & Roll and Me

Little House Studios - Jay Daniels - Our Hearts Ballet

a.k.a the serious EP. Life is not full of sunshine and rainbows.

Composed February 2018, recorded December 2020. Unrequited love sucks , but in my opinion, it's better to be rejected on the spot than led on.

(Lyrics)

(Verse 1)
It was too good to be true, too bad it didn't work.
Too perfect for me and eternity.
If we can turn back time, before you broke my heart,
before I fell in love, before we even start.

(Chorus)
Pass me by, you really didn't have to make me cry.
All you had to do was pass me by. 
You really didn't have to make me cry, pass me by.

(Verse 2)
You shouldn't lead me on, a true heart that you lack.
I hope you meet someone and Karma pays you back.
So much in common, thought we're doing fine.
Thought you will be mine, if we can turn back time.

(Chorus)

(Bridge) If we can turn back time, all you had to do is

(Chorus)

Pass Me By

BBC Radio Essex Interview + 'Three Have Come At Once'

Wave

Klagovisa

Staring at my phone for too long
I know now that the signals still strong
with the flashing light in my line of sight
I know that somethings wrong
and I've been staring at my phone for too long

ohh maybe baby, I've got just what you need
and all i need from you is a touch of sympathy
she says baby, don't get me started
I told you what love is, and we ain't got none
so leave me alone

I should have known
I was nothin but a fool
yeah I should have known
there was nothin I could do
yeah I should have know
but i'm left here broken hearted
fighting myself as the clock reaches twelve
I know deep inside
I should have known

feeling like I've said too much
her coldness feels like more than just a touch
well in my mind, all these grand designs
have crumbled from the nudge
and i'm feeling like I've said too much

don't worry baby, I've got just what you need
and all I need from you is a touch of sympathy
she says baby, don't get me started
I told you what love is, and we ain't got none
so leave me alone

I should have known
I was nothin but a fool
yeah i should have known
there was nothin i could do
I should have know
but i'm left here broken hearted
fighting myself as the clock reaches twelve
I don't like to lose
next time i'll know

!!!HOT NEWS!!! New Valuable Friends vinyl album and CD available! ALSO 2nd Deluxe Vinyl & CD+Booklet "Songs That Mean Something" See links below. 

Composer/Guitarist/Producer

Songs: We find them unpainted in our hands, throw them up into the air of our imagination, turning them in the colours we see after we close our eyes until they feel just right, and sometimes we catch them perfectly, without blemishing them...

My music is on most platforms for your ease.

Wow!!  417K+ plays and 4,000+ valued followers and friends on SC alone, that provide lots of wonderfully helpful comments that fuel the next track! Really big thanks to the SC community for listening and providing such brilliant feedback and support. It means so much to myself and my collaborators - huge thanks.

I work in different styles, as the inspiration, dreams or bubonic plagiarism comes! I use Logic Pro X on Mac.
 
I write, produce and play all my own stuff (unless otherwise stated), play vintage Tokai Strats mainly, PRS Torero, Steinberger, Gretsch G2627T, Classical, Fender Dreadnought, Yamaha and Rickenbacker basses, keyboards and sax. I use Native Instrument's Komplete, Omnisphere 2 and my own organic samples.

I mix on Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's and HD 650's (closed and open headphones) when not making a bigger noise through my Yamaha HS8 studio monitors. I use Focusrite Clarett 2Pre ThunderBolt and Apogee audio interfaces, Neumann & iSK condenser & AKG dynamic mics. 

Hardware: Feb 1978 Marshall JMP 50W Combo, BOO & BOSS stomps

I love collaborating with other musicians and will compose with, play guitar for, produce, arrange, master or even just hum along with other SC musicians. Please ask!

P.S. I am a long standing member of the Performing Rights Society and PPL through my old TV and theatre work as well as my record and publishing deals.
