Hi folks. I have added a lot of videos recently. Please take a look!
Hi folks, This site acts as a personal archive of my work. So you'll find my best recordings here as well as some pretty crappy ones. The earliest recordings here were made on simple cassette decks, others were made on mobile phones, some are live recordings made at various gigs over the years, a handful were made in small recording studios, but most of the more recent ones were made at home on a Zoom portable studio, which itself is now rather ancient! If you like a song and want to download it, click on 'Full song info' for that song and you will see the download link. You can also read the lyrics and any background information on the songs that I may have added. All my music is available for free - enjoy :) cheers, Charles

Story behind the song
Recorded at the Elms, Rottingdean in 1979. My friend's son Thomas was in my room and talking to himself during this recording - you can hear him in the background :) The satire was originally written about the young Guru Prem Rawat who was popular in India at the time and was known as Guru Maharaj Ji... what a con-artist he was!
Lyrics
Do you want to live in a perfect world? And do you want love that will never grow cold? Do you want happiness? Do you want endless bliss? Didn't you know you can get it from me? Cause I'm a Guru! - yes I am! Wholly more holy than you Oh I'm a Guru! And no-one nowhere is trulier true Oh I'm a guruvy guruvy guruvy Guru Whoa-ho - OM! Now don't you fret when I ride in my jet My trip to heaven is the fastest you'll get - yes it is Just sign on the dotted line Whatever was yours is mine Surrender your worldly worries to me Cause I'm a Guru - yes I am! Wholly more holy than you Can't you see my halo shining? Oh I'm a Guru And I'm bliss-permeated through and through Oh I'm a guruvy guruvy guruvy Guru Whoa-ho - OM! I'm building an ashram in St Tropez Free for the chicks but the guys have to pay I meditate in my car On the built-in TV and cocktail bar It's all an illusion - believe you me! Cause I'm a Guru - yes I am! Wholly more holy than you Oh I'm a Guru And no-one nowhere is trulier true Oh I'm a guruvy guruvy guruvy Guru Guruvy guruvy guruvy Guru Guruvy guruvy guruvy Guru OM Mane Padme OM! OM Mane Padme OM! OM Mane .... OM Money.... Money.... money... Money money money money money money MONEY!!!
