Miss You
My elegy to Wendy (see my homepage for links to more about her). The only song of mine that Jeweller's Eye have recorded so far.
Two Crows
Now also a Jeweller's Eye song, but we've only recently gig-tested it. Hope to take it into the studio before too long. In the meantime, here's my home demo.
Heartland
This song's about 10 years old now, but I've just got round to re-recording it.
Stardust
Another relatively old song that I've recently had another try at recording.
Wynnie's Song
I wrote this for my first (and only) great grand-daughter Wynter when she was only a baby. But time passes...
When The Rain Came (the Refugee's Song)
This one is serious (don't get me started on what I think of the despicable Sue-Ellen Braverman...)
Fisherman's Blues
My version of the Waterboys favourite.
Head and Heart
The John Martyn oldie and one of Wendy's favourites back in those days long ago — when the world was young and we were still full of hope.
Christmas Ghosts
It's been 17 years since Wendy died, and so many things have changed. My life has moved on, and so have many others too. New relatives have joined the family, and some have left too. But that doesn't mean Wendy has been forgotten, not by any means. And sometimes she returns in a song lyric or a poem.
Happy Instead
We were staying in the Lake District in February for Angela's birthday, in a bed and breakfast in Keswick. Our room had a view that looked over the street behind, the town rooftops, and over to the high slopes of Skiddaw. I'd brought a guitar with me and this song just flowed from my pen. Maybe it's just meant to be a counterbalance to Endless Blues...
I Can Feel The Day
A spontaneous celebration of the 2024 general election result, written only a few days after the reult was announced. Yes, I' m happy to admit it, I was absolutely delighted and so relieved to see the end of the worst government I can remember in my (increasingly) long lifetime. Good riddance!
