First gig of the year and very happy to welcome Bank of England comrade Mark Byrne as our drummer.
There’s a new page. It’s over there ——>>> and it’s my thing for 2012. I’m going to upload my song ideas every month and share them for you to laugh at or just listen agog. I warn you they are warts and all and not particularly good. But it’s how I write. you lucky people. Happy New Year! xx
Here’s a song I wrote for my daughters and their friends who had a little Halloween party tonight. Unfortunately they weren’t scared by it. Next time it will be really evil….
Here’s a few songs from a gig we played last month. More to come I think.
We’ve just added a drummer the beautifully named Steve Massey. Rehearsals going well.
I wrote this about 20 years ago and most people (I hope) in Liverpool are well aware of the corrupt and vile nature of the news international corporation, following the sun’s appalling lies over the Hillsborough disaster. The revelations of the last few days were no surprise to me.
I can’t find the studio recording 16 Tambourines made of this song (anyone?) so here’s a solo live version from Cambridge a few years ago.
New song written on the piano I bought 6 months ago. I’m very much a beginner in the bright arts of the instrument but I can play chords as long as I do it slowly. Hence a ream of ballads being written.
This one is called No Regrets Darling.
Here’s my contribution to the royal wedding. I’ll be playing this on the big day Friday – at The Oakwood at 5pm.
My wife Ann plays recorders on this (first time we’ve played music together for public consumption!) my kids Fae and Rosa sing backing vocals and Martyn Campbell plays bass and sings too.
Heads might roll.
Louis Theroux is back to meet the Pastor Fred Phelps tonight on the BBC. Here’s a live performance by me and Mark Byrne of the song I wrote after watching the first programme Louis did about the church
This is a blast from my past I found on You Tube earlier this week. I can only apologise for the hairdo.
