This one's been re-mixed to remove some anomalies in the sound (forgive the indulgence - I just couldn't keep the other version on the site!), and has had loads of extras thrown in - mostly in the vocals. This song also features drums by PuppetXeno (thanks Puppet, for your time and patience)!

Did not know really what do with it and I sent my track to JBP. So he completed the tune with a melody, lyrics, guitars and vocals. So it has become another wonderful song (I think) in this colaboration between JBP and me. The first title was "the trash song". But anyhow this is what we are coming up with. And if you like it.....

This track was recorded when we first started working together.its about being willing to do anything for the one u love. J had the chords and that hypnotic style chorus(Thanks to peter,paul & mary!), i fleshed it out over a few weeks and put guitar riffs to it,lyrics and arrangement. A song that Mick the engineer pulled off dramatically considering the poor quality equipment we had! Top marks buddy! So this is it, three guys and waaaaay too much motivation! Hope u enjoy.

Fri, 25 Apr 2003 01:00:00 -0400 http://forum.bandamp.com/Audio_Review/1948.html This was in my opinion the best effort that was put together by me and my crew of mates in our recording spree. Top notch performances all round from everyone, nicely laid out and well played. I love this tune because it was written by my and my old bassist John @nodge' Buckley waaaaaaay back in the days of our first bands and it somehow lingered on in different forms until we laid it to rest in this recording. Its a song about regrets i guess. People always come back to me and say something new about it. People get different vibes from it and for that im really glad. Thanks to Alan on Bass, Shane on vocals,Dekki on drums again and of course Mick my engineer. I say "MY" because he's been with me ever since we started making music, always there to tweek the sound till its squeaky clean. Believe it or not but he gave 4 hours of his life setting up the sound of the lead guitar at the end of the tune. (which accidentally got erased at a later point!OOOOPS) So this one is dedicated to all his hard work over the course of the recording project.

It's a song about blues and how gr8 blues is and when I listen blues I don't need anything else 'cause it feels so good. It's blues-rock song, I hope u'll like it. And this is first time u'll hear me singing. Not really the best I can show, this song was recorded when I was 17, that was 3 years ago.
