| MP3 Written by Bill Withers. My wife IS away without me at the time of recording this, although I do know where and how long for in real life. Even so, it seems an appropriate song to be singing |

| MP3 Written by Gerry Rafferty and Joe Egan for Stealer's Wheel. Another of my old busking songs in a quick one take blast. The original record is still a radio staple after three and a half decades, and sounds fresh and exciting as ever, however if you don't know it, here is a taster.
Urban myth has it that the song is about Billy "The Big Yin" Connolly, who had a double act with Rafferty before becoming a comedian. |

| MP3 Written by Dave Courtney and Leo Sayer for Roger Daltrey. Another of my old busking favourites, but the timing seems all different with bass and drums - I don't know if I lose beats strumming solo or whether this one has gained some. |

| Words by Clive James, music by Pete Atkin. An alternative take to the one on You Tube, where it is my most successful posting, despite, or maybe because of being such an obscure song. |

| MP3 Written by Joni Mitchell
Despite the angelic prettiness of her voice, Joni has done a few rockers in her time. I have coarsened the backing texture, to match the notable lack of angelic prettiness in my own voice, but I have done my best to hang on to the raw wild energy. |

| MP3 written by Jimmy Lea and Noddy Holder for Slade.
I have only ever publicly performed this song as a solo acoustic number, but this is more like it should be. |

| Written by Jackson Browne and Glenn Frey for The Eagles. This used to be my loosener when I was a busker, as it starts in an easy key for me and then goes to high and low notes in the chorus. I have been doing it 31 years, since my first band, and it has drifted away from sounding like an Eagles song now. |
