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
In 1979 - just before I went to California - I went busking in the south of France with a few friends. Sylvain came along and was brilliant at passing the hat - his good looks and charm won people over every time... he could juggle too... That's Sylvain in the picture - which was taken about that time. I wrote the tune in the south of France and added the lyric a few months later.
Lyrics
Put on a sunny smile And a juggler's style Add sparkling eyes And beauty Let's go to St Tropez For Bastille Day You pass the hat And I'll play! I'll play for you my happy songs I'll play for you my sad Sylvain Sylvain! Sylvain Sylvain! I'll play for you my happy songs I'll play for you my sad Sylvain Sylvain! Sylvain Sylvain!
