There’s a mixed bag of songs on Podcast #24, which was recorded last Tuesday, a week ahead of schedule and has a slightly edgy feel to it. “Not John” was appropriate for the following day being December 8th, exactly thirty years after John Lennon was shot dead. On the anniversary itself I played it again at Havering Folk Club followed by Working Class Hero and the video from that evening is embedded at the end here.

Not John Lennon

Loudon Wainwright’s “Not John” followed by “Working Class Hero” written by John Lennon performed at Havring Folk Club on December 8th 2010 by Andy Roberts.

So this week’s podcast was recorded a day early, on the Monday instead of Tuesday, not that that will make much difference to podcast subscribers, who mostly seem to like to download the show about one week after it’s been published, but for those of you who might on occasion turn up for the live show at 7.00pm, I won’t be there at all some Tuesdays, and this was one of them.

Knowing that I was effectively playing to an absent live audience had a curious effect on the performance, which I would describe as slightly more random in a creative sort of way, but Linda described as “less in the flow”. I was worried that it wouldn’t be good enough for me to want to put out at all, so I carried on after the half hour but in the end that just made it a bit more difficult to edit down to size, something I’d prefer not to do really.

So the original full length video file saved over on Ustream is not worth keeping really, due to the failing daylight at this time of year on a cloudy September evening, and me not having bothered to find the lamp. I kind of like lurking in the dark though

Andy Roberts is being kept in the dark

Podcast Episode 11 Show Notes

Show notes and information for Podcast Episode 11 broadcast on September 13th, published on September 14th 2010.

1) Century

A Millenium song written by Andy Roberts around 1980

“Century is my song for the Millennium, written in the early eighties looking forward to the year 2000. It’s called “Century” because the term Millennium wasn’t so much in use then, nobody much had started thinking about it yet, and I was still writing COBOL computer programs with 2 digit years”

2) I Am The Way

Song by Loudon Wainwright after Woodie Guthrie’s “Standing Down in New York Town”. Just noticed I played this not long ago, in podcast 7 oh well.

3) You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere

Bob Dylan Song from Greatest Hits Vol 2

4) Mondura Dam – Andy Roberts song

I may have played this recently, not sure now, but anyway here it is again but this time on the 12 string guitar. Music and Lyrics by Andy Roberts.

5) Norwegian Wood – Beatles

I kind of love/hate this song, so I’m trying to reinterpret it. The video below will be from a live performance at Havering Folk Club

6) Me and my Friend the Cat

One of the early songs by Loudon Wainwright – performed on his birthday. Happy birthday Loudon. Next time I’ll remember the lyrics, OK.

There’s a bit of an improvised introduction tune followed by four more original Andy Roberts music songs and a final Bob Dylan song in this weeks podcast, all played on the 12 string guitar. Two of the songs are  revivals from the Andy Roberts Tapes which was recorded in 1980, the other two are a bit newer, well Shifting Sands dates back to spring 2003 as far as I can remember and the Cajun cooking song was written on that Spain trip which immediately followed, so yes, two from the tapes and two from The Gernika album.

Show notes and information for Podcast Episode 10 broadcast on September 7th, published on September 7th 2010.

Improvised Intro

Ephemeral work with lyrics and music by And Roberts

Joan of Arc

Named after a specific Hotel in the Marais, Paris, Andy Roberts’ song Joan of Arc tends to get wheeled out every autumn due to the seasonal references. From The Andy Roberts Tapes

Shifting Sands

I may have played this recently, not sure now, but anyway here it is again. Music and Lyrics by Andy Roberts.

Suitcase

Another one from the tapes, and a kind of sequel to the above really. I’m not really completely comfortable with being the person who wrote this song, all that time ago, but the tune is catchy and the guitar runs were developed for the 12 string guitar, yes the same guitar.

Cajun Music Cajun Food

One of the Spanish songs, and still crying out for a fiddle and accordion but I do my best with the solo guitar.  From the album Gernika

I Shall Be Released

Music and lyrics by Bob Dylan, arrangement Andy Roberts

I went along to Havering Folk Club last Wednesday after a week away on holiday and tried to do a version of one of the new songs I haven’t finished yet. I know It didn’t work out very well, partly because I don’t have the lyrics memorised yet and I tried reading from a crib sheet on the music stand, which has never worked out for me in past and probably never will. I can sing and play at the same time, sometimes I can sing, play and read at the same time, but not it seems in front of an audience, standing up and without reading glasses. So I’ve uploaded the podcast versions of the unfinished songs to youTube instead. The one called “Untitled 1″ in the episode 3 shownotes is provisionally called “Trevellas” now, and unfinished 2 is called “Summerhouse” but I also have a plan for combining the two songs into one single work that would be longer and more complex. We’ll have to see.

Sitting On The Bank

To recompose my composure, finding myself with a capo on fret 4 I decided on the spur of the moment to sing “Sitting on the Bank” which is a simple song I wrote when I was about 15 or 16 and thinking about leaving home soon. While uploading I noticed that the melody is developing slightly even now, I’m not sure it’s correct to call it a revival though, as it’s never really been out of the repertoire.

The Mighty Quinn

After the break and with the list of floor singers completed there was a little time left and Pep kindly asked me to do another, so after 3 pints I decided to do a singalong that everybody knows though it turned out not everybody at Havering Folk Club knows that the Mighty Quinn was a Bob Dylan song. The Manfred Mann cover version was better known in the UK in 1960s and afterwards.
