From The Whistle (Don't Take The Pea!)

Everyone came to look inside me
See what they can see
I did my best
Put on a clean vest
And let them be

See inside me (from the whistle)
Don't take the pea (from the whistle)
Here inside me
It echoes and wobbles and sometimes goes...

Bang!

Nobody saw my head
Go out of the door
They all had a shock
I rolled on the floor
They all shouted “more!”
Now we had quite a flock

I  see inside you
As you look inside me
I borrow your dreams
And swim off like a silvery bream
Off like a silvery bream...

It swam off with my head
It was getting ahead
I was back on my tod
Looking for God 
In the lavatory quad
With a fishing rod
I had to applaud  
The name of the Lord
Behind psychology’s fraud

("Sit you down Father, rest  you")

When they all went
We stayed in a tent
In the County of Kent
We had a swift ale
A blackbird beer
A fishwives’ tale 

See inside me (from the whistle)
Don’t take the pea (from the whistle)
Hear inside me
It echoes and wobbles and sometimes goes...
 
Free!

(don't call me old-fashioned but...)
(you don't very often see one of those...)
(D'you 'ave that with gravy?)

From The Whistle

From The Whistle (Don't Take The Pea!)

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...

Most of my tracks are available on Spotify, iTunes, Apple Music, Google Play/YouTube, Amazon, etc, just search for Phil McWalter or follow the link below the track and stream or buy as you wish. 

Wow!!  417K plays and 4,000+ valued followers and friends 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), 'sing' if unavoidable, 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 Ultimate 14, Omnisphere 2 and my own organic samples. I love Hollow Sun.

I mix on Sennheiser HD 280 Pro's and HD 650's (closed and open headphones) when not making a bigger noise through my Mackie 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 compose with, play guitar for, produce, arrange, master or even just hum along with other SC musicians. Please just ask!

P.S. I use SC Repost to publish my work to other stores & streaming services. I am a long standing member of the Performing Rights Society and PPL through my TV and theatre work as well as my record and publishing deals.
