SD-01 Just a Dzong_Sleeping dogs
This has a brief, gentle intro (apologies to J.L. Molloy& G. Clifton Bingham (1884) for this... Just a Song at Twighlight) - then starts rocking... but all done with best humorous intent! http://youtu.be/jsgEtdGLKeA for video

SD-02 Don't Wanna Talk About the Girl
This song for an (imaginary) lost love has come out at the pop end of my musical spectrum...
MP3 (160 kbps)
4:13

SD-03 Deep Red Sunset
A song of redemption - or the hope of getting it back together at least. Mary's piano helps to give this an almost hymn-like feel.

SD-04 Stranded by the Tide
a raw and emotional song of redemption through love... ah.... Piano by Mary Davies and Saxophone by Jon Garvey.
MP3 (160 kbps)

SD-05 My Sweet Delight
A straightforward enough finger-picked folksy/bluesy number with acoustic country lead.
MP3 (160 kbps)
3:39

SD-06 Making Headway
I never really know how to classify my songs as they're a somewhat eclectic collection. I suppose this one's sort of folk rock (?) with its driving riff and electric lead guitar. Any better ideas?

SD-07 maybe tonight
This turned into a bit of an anthem, with its much-repeated chorus.
MP3 (160 kbps)
4:16

SD-08 Village Life
A free-tempo song with me on guitar and Mary Davies on piano. I added a scored bowed-bass later. Accompanying video at: http://bands.soundclick.com/share/235061

SD-09 Beach Life
A soft-rock antidote to the soporific effects of lazing too long on a tropical beach...
MP3 (160 kbps)
5:04

SD-10 my house
I'm really not sure how to describe this... a punk-folk rant?
MP3 (160 kbps)
3:14

SD-11 maybe tomorrow
A finger-picked folk song with a nice little guitar riff and call and response vocal... with a few additions
MP3 (160 kbps)

SD-12 Blue Sky
A jolly love song with flute
MP3 (160 kbps)

SD-13 ruby valentine
a slightly jazzy love song...
MP3 (160 kbps)
3:12
14
SD-14 I'm leaving
A cautionary tale from another era... sounds like a Victorian ballad 40s-style... I've no idea really... what do you think?
MP3 (160 kbps)

SD-15 Red House Blues
a rocking 12 bar blues with accoustic and slide guitar leads
