Rockin' at the Ace Cafe Rockin' at the Ace Cafe
Motorbiking at its best! If you can't imagine a combination of Status Quo, Bob Dylan, John Lennon and the Beach Boys, well you'll just have to hear it and form your own opinion.

A gentle but powerful tribute to a very dear friend. An unusual track, part song, part instrumental.

Plenty of good advice - some maybe a little tongue in cheek - and some great guitar.

Spit & Polish Spit & Polish
Stomping rock song with a message that brushing up a relationship shouldn't be a chore. A touch of domination here? if you say so, darling...

A slow-build song that creeps up on you, like the person it's about! Lead vocal by Pete Allen
Dozy River (demo) Dozy River (demo)
A languid song for summer days, ideal for anglers (spot the fish...)
