I always record on my mobile phone and thought that it would be nice to record on something a little more audible for a change, in order to hear my vocals properly. My stepfather allowed me to use his porta studio and i actually recorded this song recently for my Uncles funeral, which they played at the service. I thought it would be nice to post it and allow people to hear my voice more clearly for a change, as ive already posted it singing on my phone. My good friend Nandel1959 made the ...

Paul mccartney often refers to Brian Wilsons genius, and has gone on the record as saying that "God Only Knows, is the greatest song ever written."

It was one of the first commercial pop songs to use ...

Thought we'd try out this great tune, taken from The Beatles 1964 film of the same name. The film included a lot of humour and so we thought wed clown around a little in the spirit of the Fab Four. We did it in one take, so its pretty basic, but thats what youtubes all about.

The album itself consisted of leftover material from Elvis's marathon June 1970 recording sessions in Nashville, that had already produced two previous Gold selling albums. Love Letters however failed to crack the Billboard top twenty and only three songs were released. Elvis actually included a re-recorded version of his 1966 hit Love Letters on the album, which was a rare course of action for Presley. Presley first heard the song when ...

"Well All Right" was the flip side to Heartbeat. Inspired by a simple phrase the Crickets had picked up from Little Richard, they decided to use it as the title to their song. Very simple in structure, the recording is compromised of Hollys acoustic rhythm guitar and Jerry Allisons cymbals. Almost folkish in flavour, the song remains one of Buddys most memorable and loved songs.

Come 2am, my voice was shot and the music had taken a turn for the worst. Copius amounts of alcohol had been consumed and my father was in a state of severe inebriation passed out on the settee. John Winston Leybourne was on fine form backing me and Mad dog Mal was still posing as judge and jury in the guise of Si cowell, condeming my hapless efforts as i forget what im playing. Nevertheless, it makes for enthralling viewing!!!! lol
