So it’s my brother’s 32nd birthday today and it’s an honour and pleasure to celebrate such a significant step in his life’s journey. It’s also fitting to start his day with something he put together himself – as in wrote the song, performed the instruments, sang all the parts and compiled, edited and produced the […]
Read More Where He’s Coming From – All GloryThe Psalms are usually set to music and we don’t have the music notes to hand, which is why I love it when people actually do that themselves, especially when it works like a treat. In preparation for my brother’s birthday tomorrow, it’s definitely worth taking this in – to me it is a remarkably […]
Read More Psalm 142Yeah I know I’ve done this song before, but it’s worth doing again, cos I like it and it is a different singer singing it, so there! For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd

This is a typical example of that in action. This song almost acts as a compliment to the other Hawkins standard Thank You. […]
Read More Walter Hawkins Tribute – Be GratefulSo yesterday I’m celebrating me sister’s birthday and eventually get to speak to her today – being so busy with all her calls and stuff was obviously very tiring work. Anyway, whilst conversing I come across a phrase that I never considered properly until it came out of my mouth. “It’s the least I could […]
Read More It’s The Least I Could DoYep, might as well make the most of the roll that we’re on with this tribute business – it’s quality music, it’s gospel music, it’s what I love and I would only share with you what I love. I’m that kind of friend. (See what I did there?? Well you would if you were into […]
