Hi. Apologies if you are a new viewer, the following will not mean much to you. As I can no longer make new videos, I am uploading material from 'the tomb'; long story short, I was storing material away, recorded at the same time but placed on a SSD memory bank, to be uploaded by someone at a later date, to double the chances of my children someday coming across them and seeing what daddy was like and what he used to do. As with so many things, so many 'friends', so many 'preach but don't practice' - I (and D&E) have been let down. What's that, 50 for 50 now? One thing I can assure you, good people, is that, when you are dying, people will tell you any old bo**ocks - friends, relatives, doctors, lawyers, "Oh yeah, we'll do this, do that, yeah, we'll follow your wishes out..." - translation: "We'll get ourselves a new swimming pool out of you." Anyway, I need to upload what I can, whilst I still can, from those 'storage units'. I won't get much done - it takes 40 minutes to upload a 9-minute video - but I hope to get some songs up that you won't have heard before, and possibly the 2 chapters I had written for the last book I was working on ("Paul Murphy's Really Rather Dubious Fairy Tales") before the hands went numb. This is one such number, a blues jam soundtracking some family film of my beautiful children. Love, light, respect and peace (to ALMOST everyone...)

A brief run-down of 'In Your City'. First time in quarter of a century, and the dash-darn battery ran out half way through [my ex-wife used to have the same problem...]. Anyway, half is better than none [unless it's a tumor], so, here's half.

This is part 1 of the rough-mix CD of "Crystal Heart". The album was recorded February 1998. By 'rough mix', the tracks were recorded at my home studio, then when the sessions, sequencing, etc, was over, take to a pro-studio to be equalised, background hiss removed, etc. The finished master is long missing, indeed, the CD only came back to light a few weeks ago. This is the first 5 tracks, plus, hearing it from another room, I couldn't resist grabbing a guitar and playing a [slightly re-lyric-ed] version of 'Too Many Rainy Days'. This album was always one of my favourite works; at least one track from it was in my live set from then until illness forced me to stop, 20+ years later). Apologies for the sound. I cannot directly inject the sound onto YT, they demand a video. So all I can do is play the CD, and point a video camera at something, usually the TV, which is under the speakers. It compresses the sound and makes it somewhat swampy. Sometimes that helps! But what I hear in the room, compared to what I hear on the playback, is like looking at a meal in its packaging instead of savouring it on the plate. Ah well, 8 weeks ago I didn't even know this CD even existed, so, 50% of something beats 100% of nothing. Well, cancer aside.
