EVERYTIME THAT I SEE YOU EVERYTIME THAT I SEE YOU
A song about a young guy trying to decide whether it's worth puting his heart on the line to date his favourite girl or whether it would be just a waste of time and he might be better just leaving it alone. Who's been there,ha,ha.?
LOVER AND FRIEND LOVER AND FRIEND
A nice, laid back song that takes you right to the beach on a sultry Jamaican evening.
Love Crime, (BANG,BANG)_0708_03 Love Crime, (BANG,BANG)_0708_03
A joint effort between myself who supplied the music and a friend who wrote the lyrics. Odd-ball reggae once again.

One Day I'll Stay (2)_0708_04 One Day I'll Stay (2)_0708_04

One Day I'll Stay_0708_03 One Day I'll Stay_0708_03
I guess this a straight forward soft rock love song. No excuses. It's a nice change to write and record something different from my usual African/Reggae/Celtic stuff. Written for my wife, Rachel when we first met about eight years ago.
Zorba in Zimbabwe, (Africa 3)_0708_03 Zorba in Zimbabwe, (Africa 3)_0708_03
This track has a huge Zimbabwe guitar influence although the lead instrument sounds Greek to me? VIVA TUKU ! Written and recorded at home on Monday evening, Jan 18.
The Sun Will Always Rise_0708_03 The Sun Will Always Rise_0708_03
This is a melody I have played around with on my classical guitar for a while. Today, I got a chance to record it for the first time.
Don't Let The World Go Down, (oh,oui,oh)_0708_03 Don't Let The World Go Down, (oh,oui,oh)_0708_03
I love Tuku music and the way he uses bouncy, dancy music to support his sometimes very serious lyrics. This is my humble attempt to get try and get something on similar lines.
Sweet Heaven When I Die_0708_02 Sweet Heaven When I Die_0708_02
An old blugrass type song recorded in one take.

Harare Waltz_0708_03 Harare Waltz_0708_03
My recent attempt to capture a Zimbabwe sound in a quick waltz time. A tricky thing to do I found, ha,ha....
