Recorded November 2009 and featuring a simple song just guitar and vocal - The guitar is tunes to Orkney tuning D|G|D|G|C|D - This is the first piece using this tuning
Recorded October 2009 - This is a full on heavy blues rock groove where I let loose with my Les Paul 1960's Classic. This is the first music from my next album due in 2010 called Blue Again.
I love this little old Gospel song and I love the title -This is a tune that I play a lot with at home. Recorded live November 2009 using a Yamaha FG acoustic guitar
Recorded using my G&L Tribute Thinline ASAT Telecaster! Reached Number 1 in Acid Jazz - July/August 2008
Simple tune but quite a complex arrangement - Played on my G&L Thinline Tele. This production is one of the most complex to date. Remixed Nov 2008 Record date 25th Oct 2008.
Down-tempo Nu Jazz track recorded using my new Macbook and various audio interfaces. Simple riff repeated in a hypnotic rhythm - Recorded April 2009

Peace Vibration is the title of my latest collection that I plan to complete for release next year - This is the first track - recorded using my G&L thinline Telecaster - Record Date October 2008
Using many layers of guitars bass and synthesizer together with vocals contributed by jolee (USA) - Recorded in 2008 and remixed and partially re-recorded in January 2009
This is my arrangement of the old Gospel chorus - played finger-style on a 12 string Yamaha guitar - recorded through a Rode 1a condenser microphone - Behringer reverb added to the live recording
This track is inspired by music that I heard while in Turkey earlier this year - The sitar is a soft synth - I also use my 12 string guitar tuned to open C - i.e. C|G|C|G|C|E which delivers strong bass notes
Dance tune featuring Anna Lang (UK) recorded Sept 2009
This collaboration with with Michael Dean USA who contributed the excellent programming track drums keys and strings. I added all guitar parts and mastered the final mix. February 2009
Songwriting project file in demo form - This is played on a 12 string guitar recorded live via a Rode condenser microphone - Recorded October 2009
Instrumental written as a lament for a number of people who have passed over
jolee and I have created two Gospel songs with perhaps more to come in 2010
Jolee and I love this old Gospel tune so we decided to do a version ourselves
This is my version of the old spiritual song cmplete with Jungle Drums slide guitars and a slice of vintage Fender Telecaster
A bit of lively country blues - Features Telecaster guitar throughout - A song for all married people
Played on G&L ASAT Thinline Telecaster - This was recorded in Summer 2008 - I like the chilled grove and bass line with this slice of blues rock.
Martin Luther King samples set to a heavy funk rock track - If we are forced to be silent we are dead already.
Peace
