Working Title | Date | Comments |
I've Lost Her | 19.01.19 | Two electric rhythm guitars & one overdub guitar recorded The start of brand new recordings. This idea is from 2007 |
In Your Life | 24.01.11 | Two acoustic guitars recorded An idea from 1997 which for me is really tricky to play accurately but I've finally nailed it! |

13.04.03 | Mixdown and upload to the website |
09.04.03 | Main vocal recorded | |
06.04.03 | Drum submix The backing track is now complete. I think it sounds really punchy. Lyrics need to be completed and sung before upload as an MP3 file. | |
05.04.03 | Bass guitar, effect guitars and drum tracks recorded. | |
01.04.03 | Electric 12 string guitar riff recorded. Second electric rhythm guitar re-recorded | |
31.03.03 | Two electric rhythm guitars recorded. A noisy, angry song about the state of the world (man!). An idea from October 2001. | |
Obsession | 02.09.12 | Song mixed Unbelievable that its eleven after I started it and six and a half since I completed the track |
05.02.06 | Main and backing vocals recorded Although this song won't be on the next CD, the backing track has been hanging around completed for a long time. | |
06.05.02 | Bass guitar recorded The backing track is now finished on this noisy song. Rock on! | |
05.05.02 | Lead guitar and effect guitars recorded | |
21.04.02 | Electric rhythm guitars recorded | |
08.08.01 | Drums recorded I've actually recorded this song's backing track already in my experiments with the Roland recorder and the computer but decided it needed a fresh makeover. Let's hope I can replicate the tricky bassline! | |

27.08.01 | Download this MP3 file (894k) and laugh along with The Shining Hour's new direction! This started off as a test when I got the new machine. I wanted to try out the distortion effects and made up this song as I went along. Obviously, first of all I got my hair poodle-permed, put on a pair of spandex trousers and rocked like a Mother with a capital Rrrrrr!! |
