Sit By Me (Bossa) Sit By Me (Bossa)
A Dirty Deeds song that wasn't happy rocking. Many many thanks to Tim Wade for the trombone solo.
Paranoud Paranoud
Ozzy woke up in Istanbul. Where the f*** am I he said? This must be a dream.
Fear Fear
So, this is what you get pretending to be 16 and writing a new 'Stairway to Heaven'. Acoustic then a big guitar wig-out...........
Knees up Mother Brown Knees up Mother Brown
This was done as a bet. There are no guitars on here and it's mostly a cheesy old Yamaha synth and sound card with a dance drum loop. Just so you know ;)
Rotten orig Rotten orig
No Money Blues No Money Blues
This is the first song I ever wrote. Full of 16 year old angst. I re-did it because..... er.....
I Knew You When I Knew You When
This is another collaboration from the muses board. I was taken with the lyrics of this song when I first heard it. This is my version - thanks to The Cracks for letting me have a go.
Silly Things Silly Things
A collaboration with Scott Gravesen from the muses muse songwriting site. A bit of departure from my normal stuff. Scott wanted something "experimental " for his lyrics. Dunno if I really got it but it works for me.
Abducted by Aliens Abducted by Aliens
This is a serious song about how we might meet and talk with an alien race. It is not a novelty song OK?
Music by Numbers Music by Numbers
This is about the vacuity and emptiness of the modern world and the music industry. It's a cheerful little number that was originally destined for TUT2.
Sleep Tonight Sleep Tonight
This was originally a backing track sent to me by Mark Knight (the violinist from TUT). I added melody, lyrics, guitar, and vocals
Sit By Me Sit By Me
This is another song originally destined for the Dirty Deeds soundtrack (http://www.lulu.com/content/150486). An unpretentious little number with a deep psycho-sexual subtext.

Shadow of The Vatican Shadow of The Vatican
The dreadful dangers of dogma. From the TUT album The Last Fish Supper (1995). Herbie Flowers on tuba (yes, that Herbie Flowers!)
Likes of Us - unfinished Likes of Us - unfinished
I Knew You When (original) I Knew You When (original)
The original version which I thought suffered somewhat when transferred directly from the recorder. Nonetheless I was asked to load it and so have done :)
