Now it’s time for some original material. This one is the 1st out of a number of original compositions that didn’t make the cut for the album for various reasons. You can listen to clips of some of the album tracks for “Sight Or Sound” at:
Amazon and Ruckus also list this album. More to follow. 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”. This is another from a large batch of songs I composed several years ago. It is centred around the demise of a relationship, that ended mysteriously. I’m confident that there will be a few that will recognise this dilemma. 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.

More Dad stuff now.
My Dad. Part 5.
As I suggested previously, he once lived in a place named “Cowgate road” in Greenford, West London. In his mother’s residence. 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.
As he was a part of the mevement, he spent time with a number of individuals that you may recognise 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. Now I’m not sure if this happened in Cowgate road, but I’ve been told by my father about Lulu and Brian Poole of Tremeloes fame. My father never really liked Lulu. He had a few names for her but none of them are repeatable here. 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. Don’t quote me on this because it was my father that told me that Lulu and Brian Poole were having sex behind my grandmother’s settee. Floors are cold and hard. Well this one was. Why didn’t they use the couch. It would have been far more comfortable. Unless someone else was sitting there
