This was what was missing in my Springtime! Summer of Love Triptastic. This will be on repeat all summer long. Thanks Phil and Rick for potting me up!

Yes i like it, curious about the garden though, nce and clean, love the start dope track ....

Back for a bit more of the sunflowers : ) Such a beautiful vibe and so welcome. Cheers, mates!!!

Reminds me of Traffic in all the Best ways :)  Cheers Phil !!!

what's not to like about this collab. - y'all make quite a band - good chemistry - great hook and response - easy to fall into

@rick-4-1 drums
@phil-mcwalter the other stuff and also appearing as The Brass Boys

Looking forward to everybody getting together again soon and maybe we can all learn to grow and share the same garden? OK, I've over simplified, I've probably offended some gardens who are a little more hedged, rewilded or just shady.... 

Sherlock Holmes was doing some gardening, Watson asked what he was planting. He replied “A lemon tree, my dear Watson”.

Spring is almost here. I’m so excited I wet my plants.

OK, never mind, just turnip the volume!

OMG!! My account has been hacked...

PLANT SOMETHING IN MY GARDEN

Everybody's coming down to plant something in my garden
I hope I'll like it

Yeah come on man, put some weather on it!
Make it moist!

We could go for a little tour
Push the latch up on the door
Brush the pathways and make sure
That every flower's turned to the fore

'Cos everybody wants to be happy
Oh yeah!
Everyone in a happy place
Everyone likes to be happy
Oh yeah!
Plenty of happy and space

Everybody's coming down to plant something in my garden
I know I'll like it

Grow!

I know I'll like it!

I can’t see the stars tonight
Shining down or in your eyes
I can’t see the stars tonight

I can’t find the words tonight
Written down or in my mind
I can’ t find the words tonight

I can’t see the stars tonight
Shining down or in your eyes
I can’t see the stars tonight


Shining down or in your eyes 
I can’t see the stars tonight
Help me see 
Help me see the stars tonight

I could live a simple life
Slow it down or take a flight
I could live a simple life
I could live a simple life

I can’t see the see stars tonight
I can’t find the words tonight
Shining down or in your eyes
Help me see the stars tonight

I can’t find the words tonight
Written down or in my mind
I can’t find the words I like……

My Leslie's On Fire!

Poppy Rock song co-written and sung by the coolest Englishman in Japan, Nigel Sanigar http://soundcloud.com/sanigar. 

I am very grateful again to the mighty Finn http://soundcloud.com/finn-slide-guitarist for supplying not only the beautiful slide guitar but also the weaving rhythm guitar.
Thanks also to Finn and his "rock'n'roll girlfriend" Liz for coming up with the insanely catchy organ theme in the choruses and the string "stabs".

Please visit http://soundcloud.com/sanigar for more cool popiness and http://soundcloud.com/finn-slide-guitarist for the wildest rock'n'roll guitar on the planet.

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.
