It might not be official but when there's snow around and it drops to zero, that's good enough for me - winter started last night!
Just after I recorded what I have only just realised is my first solo new track since 'Waiting', my first song on here 3 years ago. 'Forbidden Fruit' is not quite so old, ha,ha - but it's not exactly a new song. Dec 4th is pencilled in for completion. It will be in the style of .........well, me, I guess, but that could be almost anything.
(I took my eye off the ball for a while but there were good reasons for that and I'm proud of my cover tracks and my reasons for doing them).
I do intend to continue working on producing new material.

HP has been finished a while and is currently being promoted - along with myself, ha, ha!
I will have wires (the vid) part2 up on 23rd, an old love song called 'First Kiss' (very rough demo) and a NEW love song to finish prov. titled 'Just One Day' or 'Right off the scale' for you to look forward to. Plus my old tape search!

I have just added YOU AIN'T GOING NOWHERE on the Boro Boys page, please have a listen and tell me if you think the Boys have anything to offer!

There's a female version too. Not a duet version, a real female version! Why is this? Well, er, that's because there's er, hmm - I have an idea for a country song, strangely, I first thought of over a year ago to be sung by a lady - no connection with any similarly titled song (I can promise you that!).

Although I was a listener only for year 1, as I may not make 10, it seems appropriate to mark my 5 years here in some celebratory way. I have a batch of new material (eek, covers mainly) which I will put up as the day draws nigh, ie 10th Oct.
Please support.
the other 2 songs still to come are:
May you Never by John Martyn
Is She Really Going Out With Him? by Joe Jackson

I may add to this as time rolls on.
It was just 11 days but it was spectacular, if gruelling by virtue of the amount of travelling. Not to mention the stress of flying.
We flew Heathrow to Calgary after hopping down to London in the afternoon. We were shattered when we reached our hotel to be face with an early departure for Banff. So we had an 'early' night. (It was quite late for us!)
Highlights were whale-watching, the Rocky Mountaineer with bear-spotting and the lumberjack show on returning to Vancouver from Victoria. Granville island was quite nice as were some evenings out.
We flew home overnight with very little sleep after a delay and got back home early evening after panicking about our connection, but it was also delayed! So we were just a little late.
The weather was sunny, windless, hardly any rain. Just like home, NOT!!
