<p>Hi everyone.</p>
<p>I have a brand new song, "Words And Music". This song was a first for me, as it is TOTALLY improvised and is as such a first take recording. I was playing around with a different tuning to see what may come up and this is what happened.</p>
<p>Cheers, Phil</p>

<p>Hi Everyone.</p>
<p>I just uploaded two new tracks. Well one new track that I recorded a couple of weeks ago and an older track (that is new to this site) that I recorded a couple of years or so ago when I was brand new to digital recording.</p>
<p>They are both traditional song. Loch Lomond is an old Scottish song which I have coupled hear with an old Pipe-tune; The Banks Of Sicily. The Wild Geese is an Irish song that I learned (though not in this arrangement) when I first started playing at folk clubs and sessions. It was taught to me by my friend Mick Rafferty when I was a very shy and nervous novice. Sadly Mick died last year and it was also my late Mum's favourite. So I sing it now in memory of them both. It took me a long time to find an arrangement for this song that I was moderately happy with. I think it must be my 4th or 5th attempt to record it. Anyway, please have a listen and let me know what you think.</p>
<p>Cheers, Phil.</p>

Hi Folks.<br /><br />I just uploaded a new track, "Spaces". This one's a bit different for me. For a start it's an instrumental. It also has no guitar on it! It's a bit of an experiment for me, as I've never done anything quite like this. Please let me know what you think.<br /><br />Love to all, Phil H

<p>Hi Everyone.</p>
<p>I just uploaded a new track; "Here's A Toast". I was playing around recently withsome of my recordings and I updated this one by adding the orchestrations, as a sort of experiment really, just to see how it would sound. Let me know what you think please.</p>
<p>Cheers, Phil.</p>

<p>Hi everyone. Just thought I'd let you know, I have a brand new song uploaded. Four Wise Monkies is a bit of a departure for me as it's a blues number of which I don't do many. I hope you like it.</p>
<p>Cheers, Phil</p>

<p>Hi.</p>
<p>I'm new on here, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to say hello to everybody.</p>
<p>I'm a singer/songwriter from Sheffield, England and I look forward to checking as many of you out as I can. It's great to hear so much good music, that's so much better than the run-of-the-mill stuff you hear every day on British radio.</p>
<p>All the best, Phil</p>
