Hi folks
Just a little message to tell everyone I have uploaded a further two songs to N1M both are going on my 'Children of the Sheeple' album.
First song : "Mesopotamia Burning" I wrote during the second Gulf War basically as a result of the war and what I saw on television.
Second Song: "William@War" was written when I reminisced about my step father who fought in the British 8th Army in the 2nd World War against Rommel in the deserts of North Africa... he suffered alcoholism due to his time fighting there...
All the best for now folks
hope you enjoy the tunes

Hi Folks
Just uploaded a new song, thinking about making this a new single... Interesting story to this song...
Twenty five years ago my little sister asked me to go into the town with her, I was living on the Perth Road in my home town at the time and it was just a twenty minute walk... All the way into the town my sister talked non stop we got half way down the road and this song started playing in my head. I could hear the lyrics and music and I was totally captivated by it so much so that I drifted off and didn't hear a word my sister was saying... even though she was talking non stop all the way into the town.
I told myself I'd have to write this song down and record it later which I did but I was disappointed as when I recorded it it sounded complete rubbish, so I shelved it and forgot all about it...
Five or so years later a similar thing happened but that time I had taken a note pad and pen with me and the song "Moan a Lisa" was born which everyone loved when I played it live in the band I was in at the time, still don't have a great recording of that one but will possibly rerecord it...
Twenty five years later and just the other week I thought about the song I heard that day again and decided to try and rerecord it again which I did but in the wrong key for my voice so had to recorded a third time and I got a better version... I still think it could be better but this is the nearest I have got to from the original song that was playing in my head that day, though I did rework some of the lyrics and structure which has improved the final recording...
Moral of the story probably is: A note book and pen should be carried about with you at all times... It was a writer friend at time that had suggested this when I had written the song "Moan a' Lisa" which funnily enough was partially written in a registrar office of Birth, Deaths and Marriages... at that time I was going there to get a copy of my Birth certificate...
All the best to everyone
Hope you all find the story and the song interesting

Hi folks
Hope you are all keeping well, just a little message to let you all know that I have uploaded to my N1M website a third song for my forthcoming Album "Children of the Sheeple" this one is a little bit more light-hearted and harks back to and is influenced by many bands from the good old punk days... a lot more work to do to complete this album but I'm enjoying the challenge..
all the best till next time
and thanks for your support

Hi folks
Hope you are all keeping well... Just uploaded two recordings that I am putting on the new album I am working on "Children Of The Sheeple", I thought I'd let you all get a little bit of a taster of what will be on the album... but then again most of what I record sounds completely different and odd so maybe their just a bit of an idea of what is to come...
Am working on quite a few tracks at the same time and working on rerecording other songs that I have previously uploaded.
Hope you all may find them interesting
Cheers
