3am [Blues Rock, 5 piece]
1. Hideaway Blues [Blues-spiked Rock]Artist's comments: Developed by the band in rehearsal, from a casual request to drummer Jamie along the lines of "can you do a train?" this infectious introduction spawned the song. The idea of a slide based song was also settled before the riff arrived and Laura wrote words on the spot.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 192k, Time: 4:14, Size: 5.830 MiBAdded: 7 Sep 2014Add to Player »
2. Fever [Little Willie John] [50s, 60s and 70s classic gold]Artist's comments: Previously covered by Peggy Lee, Madonna, Beyonce, this all-time favourite passion-filled song of desire is here given a new rhythm and vibe inspired by Stevie Ray Vaughan's "Cold Shot".Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 256k, Time: 2:59, Size: 5.494 MiBAdded: 14 Aug 2021Add to Player »

4. Thank You Cyril Davies [Blues-spiked Rock]Artist's comments: A cheerful tribute to Cyril Davies - one of the UK's very first proponents of Blues in Britain.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 256k, Time: 2:13, Size: 4.071 MiBAdded: 14 Aug 2021Add to Player »
5. Reflections [Jazz/Blues/Soul]Artist's comments: A very personal take on efforts to analyse - and hopefully fix - those devastating glitches in a relationship.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 256k, Time: 3:35, Size: 6.588 MiBAdded: 14 Aug 2021Add to Player »
6. On the Road Again [Country Rock]Artist's comments: A happy-go-lucky celebration of getting back together again with a loved one - perfect post-Covid song!Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 256k, Time: 2:45, Size: 5.039 MiBAdded: 14 Aug 2021Add to Player »
7. You Got Me Wrong (Travesty) [Blues-spiked Rock]Artist's comments: From Laura's words tried in different formats previously, the final version of this tune is based around the tremolo pedal effect that introduces the song, and Phil's weaving bass line. The tune gradually builds as the drums enter late and the keyboards swirl around the riff to climax in the releases. The song steadies in the middle to change melody, chord formation and feel for the guitar solo.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 192k, Time: 5:39, Size: 7.771 MiBAdded: 7 Sep 2014Add to Player »
8. Wind Callin' My Name [Blues-spiked Rock]Artist's comments: From Laura's words the song developed around a riff Chris introduced in rehearsal. The song moved further forward with the use of the wah-wah pedal and the Hendrix-influenced introduction.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 192k, Time: 4:27, Size: 6.134 MiBAdded: 7 Sep 2014Add to Player »
9. Angel on the Road [Blues-spiked Rock]Artist's comments: Tim's song written to replace Chuck Berry numbers in the set, the song is based on a vague parody of a girl known during college days. The verses mix her movements following various men around England with a road-trip type excursion from the American mid-west.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 192k, Time: 4:03, Size: 5.582 MiBAdded: 7 Sep 2014Add to Player »
10. New Year's Resolution [Blues Rock]Artist's comments: Delicately sung ballad, balanced by no-holds barred keyboards and slide guitar. Inspired by a phone call from a saddened songstress friend of Laura's. We've all been there...Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 192k, Time: 4:04, Size: 5.592 MiBAdded: 3 Jan 2014Add to Player »
11. Attention Seeker [Blues Rock]Artist's comments: This is best described as a "fast-rocker". And this is the story behind the song - there we were, playin' this gig down the East End. Pretty young girl with 3 (yep, 3!) blokes in tow sitting at the front - seemed like she'd been drinking ALL afternoon. Fancies herself as a singer - struttin' around in front of Laura - posin', mouthin' - you get the picture. Laura hands her the mike - big FAIL! So funny, it was worth not just a 3am song - but a Will Long video as well - enjoy!!Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 320k, Time: 4:00, Size: 9.167 MiBAdded: 11 May 2013Add to Player »
12. Insatiable [Blues]Artist's comments: A new 3AM song. Bluesy and sexy; born in the rehearsal room with lyrics and approach by Laura, the song is multi layered and features some lap steel guitar, and great interplay between guitar and keyboard lead lines.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 160k, Time: 7:04, Size: 8.092 MiBAdded: 6 Mar 2012Add to Player »
13. For the First Time [Blues Rock]Artist's comments: Raunchy guitar and drums building to a crescendo in the intro - then Laura voice whispers its way into your consciousness. The mood soon changes, as suspicion, then accusation, creep into the relationship and the song, and Laura lets rip. Yet another love story gone wrong, set to that can't-sit-still rhythm.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 160k, Time: 3:45, Size: 4.304 MiBAdded: 21 Feb 2012Add to Player »
14. I Don't Believe You [Blues Rock]Artist's comments: Written by Tim Renton, this is a song about distrust and defiance - written around the first line, the angry "and one more thing, before you leave me". The music is a mixture of rhythm and blues patterns and changes with a "Brian Auger" type build up on the keys in the middle. Vocals here by Tola Lamont.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 160k, Time: 4:00, Size: 4.586 MiBAdded: 28 Jun 2010Add to Player »
15. Know Your Man [Blues Rock]Artist's comments: Blues meets Palm Court in another 3AM song with a distinctive lyric line, this time featuring acoustic instruments, brushes on the drums and a mandolin. Chris provides some classy piano lines. And still the query: is the song being sung by the girl's best friend? - or by "the other woman"? - you decide!Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 160k, Time: 2:57, Size: 3.393 MiBAdded: 21 Feb 2012Add to Player »
16. Highway [Blues Rock]Artist's comments: The ultimate escape song - "We'll hit the highway!" Let your hair down to this funky, driving, country blues-inspired set-closer. Some fabulous Hammond-style keys from Chris in this one.Format: 44.1kHz stereo, bit rate: 160k, Time: 4:16, Size: 4.899 MiBAdded: 21 Feb 2012Add to Player »
