9. Autumn Voyage... höst voyage 9. Autumn Voyage... höst voyage
The prospect of hope and less dangerous times for our adventurous Viking sailors. The 'o' in 'host' (Autumn should have an umlaut) also on a UK keyboard I'm unable to type the angstrom...the a with a small circle above it ! sorry to any Swedes
10. Seaside Sunset ...havet solnegång 10. Seaside Sunset ...havet solnegång

11. Unknown submarine in Swedish waters 11. Unknown submarine in Swedish waters
This is a 'stand alone', piece, but is included here as a bonus track on the Fjordland album... An experimental piece inspired by a recent story of an unknown submarine spotted in the coastal waters just off Stockholm in 2014.
Radio Arcadio...Closing Down... Radio Arcadio...Closing Down...
Radio Arcadio...Closing down...but the MUSIC lives on. This is what happened to our favourite radio stations when the government implimented their Marine Offences Act on the stroke of midnight August 14th. 1967.

Rainyday Blues for Caroline Rainyday Blues for Caroline
A Peter Green styled Blues instrumental...I recirded this a number of years ago, but felt that it's mmod was perfect for the later part of my album, 'When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves'.
Ghost Radio Ship Ghost Radio Ship
A disturbing ambient piece, designed to fit in with the darkening mood that covered the UK, after the government of the day passed the 'Marine Offences Act', in 1967...essentially passing the death sentance on Pirate Radio stations.
Kinky Fool Kinky Fool
Although this was recorded quite a few years ago, I feel that it has the correct 1960s attitude and vibes, for it to be added to my latest 'concept', album... 'When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves'.
Bend Me Shape Me (Radio Caroline Option) Bend Me Shape Me (Radio Caroline Option)
A totally fab song to play...simple, but a very nice chord sequence E / A / F#m / etc... a #3 hit for Amen Corner in 1967. Lead singer was of course Andy Fairweather-Low (gosh, he looked very young on the video) mind you, I was only 15 at the time.
When You walk In The Room (Radio Caroline Option) When You walk In The Room (Radio Caroline Option)
A favourite 'Merseybeat', song of mine. This is just one of the many 'covers' I've recently recorded for my Pirate Radio project...'When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves'. The album is tribute to Radio Caroline, Radio London and Radio 270.
Film Noir Trailer #3 Film Noir Trailer #3
A music trailer for a Film Noir. A Rock music backing track, with 'found' voices of stalwarts of that genre...Lauren Becal, Humphrey Bogart and Robert Mitchum.
The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan
I've always thought that this was a good song. I only know the Dr. Hook and Marianne Faithful versions, but I'm sure there are other versions out there. A simple 3 chord song...so pick the key that suits your vocal range and off you go.
Those Damn Dust-Bowl Blues Those Damn Dust-Bowl Blues
This tune is my 'reaction' in music, after reading Timothy Egan's facinating book, 'The Worst Hard Times', about the US 'Dust Bowl', in the 1930's ... I've given it a dark and gloomy Country Blues feel. My own piece of 'Americana' !
When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves When Pirates Ruled The Airwaves
In the early 1960s I listened to UK off-shore Pirate Radio... Radio 270, Radio Caroline North ... and Radio Luxenburg. This is a sound collage of Radio Caroline & Radio London 'jingles', around two great songs...Love Potion#9... and Crimson & Clover
