Hi all melody makers..

I was mucking around on an old upright piano that was kindly given to us a few months ago. It's out of tune and rather dusty..(bit like me)..anyways, those Pesky warbling clones got to hear about it and bullied me into what your about to hear..
Have fun peeps

Wow, your vocals are amazing, really powerful. That out of tune old piano really works on this, I think it sounds just great. Brilliant performance and song.

I have 2 profiles on this site, (NOW COMBINED INTO ONE PROFILE PAGE)
 One is a musical partnership with Keith Allen, ( we record songs as "The Devil's Toupee").
The 2nd one is for my other musical projects and collaborations. (DarrenG)
Thanks for listening.

My comment vanished? If it was proactive censorship... Well played!

As i wrote earlier... Mr Pipes is a mystery to me. Is he a professional singer sometimes descending from heavens to entertain us mere mortals? Based on the vocal performance(s) i've heard from him i think so...

This song is probably too weird for wider appeal, but as an outsider art it's bloody magnificent!

Those things we take for granted - when we're young and immature - will surely return to haunt us when we're old and insecure

That piano creates just the right atmosphere for the bluesey song you've created.  Your voice is incredible!

this sounds fantastic... that old piano works...reminds me a lot of a kind of cult band in NC called Ben Folds Five.  He also played solo... a piano player and singer with a sometimes band...super stuff just like him.
I agree with Zoltan... descending from heaven vocals
