This song reflects my value of a lasting love relationship instead of passing flings. Written over forty years ago when my voice still sounded pretty good, the value must have worked: I've been married for 52 years and counting! I really have been "long on love!"

I’d like to have an orchestration of all my songs

This song was intended to be the B-side of a record I produced and recorded for Safari Records in 1979. The BBC, however, thought the A-side of the song too raunchy for its listeners (it was written, at Safari's owners request, after the style of the Rocky Horror Show, which I had starred in a few months before), and it was refused air-play. So, it never charted. Tomcat was recorded in a 24-track studio in Tooting and some great musicians, (Nick Straker band) and an equally great engineer, helped me produce Tomcat, and the A-side, 'Hey You'.

Though the song has been put through SUNO's A.I. machine to raise it from its original state (recorded quickly in an 8-track studio in the 1970s) to a professional standard, the vocal melody and chord structure are precisely the same as they were when I first wrote the song.

Wrote this song in 1990 and recorded it on a 4-track recorder and using a cheap sequencer, in my attic room in West Hampstead, a year later. The quality has faded somewhat. Apologies for this.

'Annabelle' is a Ska (fast reggae) track. It was recorded in a 24-track studio in 1980. The quality has faded somewhat. Apologies for this.

Although the song has been put through SUNO's A.I. machine to get it to an acceptably professional standard, the vocal melody (apart from the A.I. singer's vocal calisthenics) the chord structure, tempo and 'feel' mirror the song as it was first written and roughly recorded in 1996.

I wrote the first verse and chorus of this song in 2014, I think. But the rest would not come. Anyway, I recorded it simply so I wouldn't forget it at that time. Got drunk one night in June 2026, and went looking for the song. Found it in some out of the way place and, within and hour, had the rest of the song. I put the original verse and chorus into SUNO and sung the rest a capella. 'Does she Love Him' is the result.

Back in 1969 a friend asked me to compose a melody for a poem he had written called 'Just Came Back from the Wilderness.' inspired by his lyrics, I wrote '40 Days', perhaps 10 to 12 years later. The lyrics are quite different from the originals. I was looking through a folder of creative stuff the other day and came across these amended lyrics. I recorded the vocals and guitar into Audacity, just as I'd performed the original version for Bob France and his girlfriend, Rowena, 57 years previously. This was then exported to SUNO, where it was neatened up considerably. 24 hours of editing later, '40 Days in the Wilderness' emerged.
