David Grahame - 2 Tracks

Postby Grunch » Tue Jul 04, 2006 12:24 am

Here are 2 songs by David Grahame. How this guy has managed to go so unnoticed for 20 years is beyond me. He writes some lush pop songs, can sound dead on Beatlesque at times (WARNING FOR MOTORS)and has put out CD's for about 20 years now. I've tried to get them all, and hopefully I haven't missed any. These two tracks are from the same CD, Beatle School Graduate Class of '70.

David Grahame - Love Is Out There. This is a slower track, hauntingly, lushly beatlesque, sounds very much in the Lennon style.

David Grahame - Thieves And Weaves. A more upbeat track, lushly showing his ability to write infectious melodies with a pop feel. This song soars on jangly rickenbachers (I think) and great singing. Decide for yourself.

My favorite song by Grahame is Song Equals House. Brilliant.

It's about the song her co-wrote for Mr. Big (whatever theier biggest hit was...I forgot the title) but Grahame has made a good chunk of change off of royalties....which is good because he's been able to keep recording.

I think NOt Lame carries the CDs. www.notlame.com

Not Lame has been the only place over the years where I've found his CD's, about 8 in all I think.
