Recorded this back in the 1990's whilst I was moving house and had no access to any of my musical equipment.  So my good friend, the Rev. Smiley G. lent me his old four track and I came up with this ditty using all four tracks and one guitar.  Years later, I bounced the tracks over onto Ableton Live, cleaned them up a bit and added some fairy dust.   

Homeless Blues- instrumental

Again, recorded whilst I was between houses and using the Rev. Smiley G.'s old four track.  Just some doodles that came to mind at the time.  Again, tidied up using Ableton Live.

Somethin' Pickin' - instrumental

This started life as an acoustic folky thing which I felt I couldn't do anything else with.  My good friend, Pasztor (check him out on SoundCloud - he's good), clearly heard something more in the song than I could and took it away to remix it using many of the original parts to produce what you hear now.  The original isn't a patch on this, which is why I haven't uploaded the original - simple, innit?!?  I may even get around to adding the original vocals but he's only gone & changed the melody line (!) so I may have to rethink the lyrics before I do....

Keys to Your Heart - instrumental (Original - 2012 remix by Pasztor)

Some say he is a lazy, unmotivated, clueless, flighty, untrustworthy and despicable man and that he is a sloppy, ill-mannered and totally unfocused musician.  All we know, is that he’s called The Hedge! 

Hello, I am The Hedge.  I am the alter ego and better looking one in the mighty Smiley & The Hedge (check out our webpage - I'm the cool looking one on the left!).  My good friend, the very Rev. Smiley G., may be more driven & talented than me, but I get to have all the fun!  Check out a good friend of ours on SoundCloud who has had occasional to remix songs for both of us - he's called 'Pasztor' - use the quick link above.  I am also keen to upload my songs to SoundCloud to see what others make of my sketches and maybe get to steal some ideas from everyone else!

Enjoy life, I do!
