Now for some original songs. This one is the 1st out of a number of original compositions that didn't make the cut for the album for various reasons. Check out sound bytes for songs that did make the album "Sight Or Sound" at:
So far you can also get these songs at Amazon and Ruckus . 10 of the songs are in full on my Youtube channel, and the other 5 are not.
This particular song is called "Tell me why". It's another composition from a few years ago. It's about a relationship that breaks up with very little explanation. I'm sure there are many that can identify with that situation. I did like this song, but I thought the chorus was a little weak, and there were better songs to choose from for the album.
Take a listen here:
Moving on to the events of my father.
My Dad. Part 5.
I said in previous posts that my father was in "Cowgate road" in Greenford, West London. At his Mums house. Music is something he was crazy about. So it was no surprise that he got into the scene. His instruments were Harmonica and Guitar. He was only ever a part of one band in his life. Their name was "The frasier chorus". It was a 4 piece harmonica band, and my father played the chromatic. They had very little in the way of success. They never secured a record contract, but they did enjoy touring with bigger, well known bands.
Being on the scene, meant that he mixed with names that are still recognised today. He has shared a few of his stories with me, and I found them interesting, and surprising. Even with my tolerance. I suppose it wasn't so much of an issue in the 60's. There's something he told me about a certain Lulu, and Brian Poole of the Tremeloes. I'm assuming it took place in Cowgate road. I don't think my Dad was very fond of Lulu. Going by the colourful names he had for her. He informed me that Lulu used all the tools at her disposal in order to achieve fame. I don't find that sort of thing surprising. Many people did that. He pointed out to me that the both of them were sexually active behind my grandmother's couch. Maybe it was the excitement of a cold floor, but I would have thought that the couch in front of them was a much more comfortable alternative ![]()
