Friends, neighbours, countrymen, Evil Dave.
I am desperately proud to announce that I have completed my first original song in a little over 5 years. I’m so chuffed, I’m giving it away to you all right here:
“The Smoke” [mp3, 192Kbps, 4m35s, 6.3Mb]
This is the second full-length song that will form part of my second album, the first being “Kalahari” which I completed in October 2002. I have several other half-finished songs laying around on my E: drive and with this new-found enthusiasm I hope to finish this second album by the end of this year.
However, I won’t be giving away all the songs like I am this one. Or why would you give up a few quid for the album when it’s done? It won’t be expensive, I promise, and any money received won’t be going into my pocket - it’ll be going to pay back the people who dug into their own pockets to pay for the production of my first album, “Earthman”.
For those of you that care about this kind of stuff all the guitar sounds are generated using a Behringer V-Amp2 straight into my PC’s soundcard. I used one of the Ibanez Jems for the clean guitar, plus a friend’s Coral Sitar (thanks Andy!), then my Les Paul Custom for the distorted rhythm guitars, and all the lead was done on my Blackmachine B2.
Anyway, the big news of 2008 is that I’m back writing and recording again, and I hope to have a new disc finished before 2009.
Enjoy the tune,
–c.

Due to a strict long standing *no smoking* policy here at work, I had to go outside to listen to your track.
Battling freezing cold rain, and wind that even IanM would be proud of, I can sincerely say …
“Clive is BACK, and RAWKS!!”
Ohhh! Soo nice.
*chuffed*
that is all.

[...] have finished another tune. Yes, I have. The last one was in January, and the last one before that was a few years back, so I’m accelerating. Fancy [...]
