Mental illness changes many lives. 
When you love someone who fights so hard in spite of such difficulties, there is no option or desire but to stay - God bless you, sweetheart!

Sung by my talented daughter, Jessica.

And I Stay ft. Jessica Cleary (Original Song)

A song about all those forced to face daunting problems - 'outed' by circumstance as the heroes they never imagined themselves to be!

Thank goodness for Jessica's contribution on vocals!


Reluctant Heroes ft. Jessica Cleary (Original Song)

A song about a girl - many years ago she was the centre of everyone's life (not everyone on the planet obviously).

Again, my love to Jessica for helping support my 'vocals'.

The Honey Piper ft, Jessica Cleary (Original Song)

This is a song about those weird situations that sometimes happen in relationships where one seems to be  doing all the running and the other partner is calling all the shots - way queer!

Recorded over a few hours one evening with some great friends: Dave Lusted on drums; Ally and Sarah Montgomery on Bass and vocals. (Not professionals so be gracious :-))

Way Queer (Original Song)

A song about youthful mistakes - treating someone badly who deserved so much better.

Another great evening with great friends: Dave Lusted wonderful on drums; Ally, melodic on bass; Sarah's sweet vocals giving me great and much needed support.

Rosemary (Original Song)

This is the original version (shorter) which was recorded during rehearsal with some exceptionally talented friends a couple of years ago.

Featuring the wonderful vocals of Jennifer Flanders and Ben Lobb and the bass line subtlety of Mike Glover.

Freeflight ft. Jennifer Flanders and Ben Lobb (Original Song)

This is a love song, not between people, but born of my unrequited desire to be able to sing well.

I lost the recording of this demo, so couldn't fix the guitar mistakes - but it was too good a vocal by Jenny and Ben to bin it. (We made this a couple of years ago when we were in a band called The Chapter).

So It Seems Demo ft. Jennifer Flanders and Ben Lobb (Original Song)

we've all been there - our life's lowest point. Recovering? Now that's the tricky part.

But if/when we do, we can soar again... like a phoenix.

Like A Phoenix - Demo ft. Ben Lobb (Original Song)

A song about hoping we are really what we believe ourselves to be

Blood Moon ft. Ben Lobb (Original Song)

A song about every parents nightmare. God bless children - gotta love 'em(it's in the small print... apparently)

Quick take for a demo - one practice and straight in. Great vocal from my very good friend, an extremely talented singer, Ben Lobb.

Love my kids so much!

I'm All Done (Original song)

Home-grown songs, sometimes with people who can actually sing, thankfully - notably my beautiful daughter Jessica. 
Recorded in simple format (press one button) because I love writing songs but don't understand technology. 
Thanks for taking the trouble to listen.
