Recover The Sunlight

A downbeat song. A few Nick drake inspired chord changes. Unravel the Moonlight Unfollow the day Recover the sunlight It's showing the way You'll spend the whole time alone, alone You'll bring the whole world home, today. Words undone together Lives falling apart Keep fighting the moment Go back to the start. You'll spend the whole time alone, alone You'll bring the whole world home, today. Written and performed by Wes Martin

Seaghosts (wk67/104)

I'm in mimicking mode again. More of a homage actually. This one is my version of a Mark Hollis (former Talk Talk) type song. The guy has one weird voice, and indistinct lyrics. Well, here goes

On Waking, the Sun (wk66/104)

Whether its waking from a bad dream, or a period of confinement, be it spiritual or emotional, there is always the rising sun, the earth turns. Inspired by Philip Glass, I must admit

The Life and Times of The Real Charlie Cheese (wk 65/104)

A few years back I had the pleasure of performing some live music to my mate Ollie's art performance as The Real Charlie Cheese. This is a new piece, and for me it evokes that particular character. Charlie is a modern day jester, fool, pied piper, call him what you will. He nods back to Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Laurel n Hardy....bygone heroes. Ollie's stuff.. http://www.free-range.org.uk/cgi-bin/portfolio.pl?yearID=7&exhibitionID=74&memberID=3168

Exit John (Renbourn) (week 63/104)

When I did this weekly song project first time around in '11, Bert Jansch sadly passed away. This time, the news of John Renbourn passing away reached me today. A true guitar hero and songwriter, founder member of Pentangle, teacher, solo performer. Amazing dude. I luckily had occasion to meet him a couple of times, sweet guy. RIP This is a song I wrote this morning thinking about his passing
