I'm that exhausted from releasing I now can't use grammar. It horrible is makes and order words of the sentences in wrong.*

So, it's mainly available on Bandcamp, but people who want physical copies are allowed to ask for them. It's PWYW, because it's recorded in my bedroom and thus doesn't have the clarity you'd expect of a studio album. You can stream it for free, and download it in whatever file format you like, even FLAC. I really wouldn't though, no matter how much of an audiophile you are.

*That joke probably wasn't worth the effort it took in typing.

I'm liking your own songs best so far. Nice one, Patrick!

That's really interesting, because the ones I wrote are the ones I don't usually like because I don't think I'm a good lyricist. Maybe my EP will have more self-written stuff on it.

I'm listening to the first one, Himself, and I love it and your voice, as well as your playing. Thanks for sharing. You have a particular sound/style which I've always enjoyed. Some of it reminds me of Donovan, and I mean that in the best way possible, NOT as a comparison. Your songs have their own, very original sound.

Thanks, again!

Donovan! You hit the nail on the head there, Kat.

Don't worry - that's a compliment from me, Drug. Gift From a Flower to a Garden is one of my favourite albums...

Don't know anything by him, sounds like I should add him to my to-do list?

Yeah... but be careful. He made some right stinkers as well as the good stuff. As a general rule of thumb avoid anything after about 1971. Actually, that's a pretty good rule for life, too.

But, I'm from post 1971!

I only heard the first verse of the first song and I am a fan. When I have time, I will "explore". If any of the rest is as good as that snippet... bravOOOO!

Nice songs + playing.

Only thing I would say is the guitar sounds like it's been recorded directly via a jack-lead plugged in, which to my ears never sounds as good as a microphone in front of the guitar. It robs the acoustic guitar of its acoustic sound (Even if you don't have a marvellous microphone or a good sounding room.) Next time you record, try a blend of both.

Next time I record it'll be in a studio, but I'll try and mention it to the guy who said he won't charge me a lot of money for using his studio.

I listened to all of them, all good but your originals are wonderful. Forget other peoples music. If you can write like that, do your own. Nice nice work

I'll bear that in mind good sir.
