New Old Songs

If you’re one of the two daily visitors to this site, you might be interested that I’ve been populating the songbook with some old chestnuts. Click around.

Destroyer (The Stills)

A quickie with the uke.

Sellotape

When I was over at Siobhan’s recording “Clouds in California,” I did a quickie version of this excellent song by Flight of the Conchords. Hope you enjoy.

Revamp

I’m re-doing a lot of the site to focus on the songs. This was after extensive user testing: I asked both visitors. Just hang out til I get things looking right. And let me know how you like as it comes along.

One of the fun things is that the home page — the song list — shifts around as I modify the individual songs’ pages. So whatever I’ve updated the most recently appears on top. That way, anytime I record a new audio or video file and add it to a page, or if I add the background story or lyrics to a song page, it’ll appear at the top. So even if you’ve previously seen that page, you’ll know there’s new info.

Also, I uncovered tons of old recordings and I’ll be posting them as I keep improving the site.

So then I came home from Siobhan’s house and thought, hell, let me see if I can knock this out on the camera. This was take two. Take one was good too but I didn’t like the angle.
