Andrew Nicholson

I’m busy with the final touches of my new Bruce Springsteen Tribute Album but all the basic recording is now complete. I’ve managed to put together 15 songs for a 79 minute album:

Andrew Nicholson – Driving All Night: A Tribute To Bruce Springsteen Volume II (2009)
1. Growin’ Up
2. New York City Serenade
3. Thunder Road
4. Darkness on The Edge of Town
5. Drive All Night
6. Reason To Believe
7. Tougher Than The Rest
8. I Wish I Were Blind
9. I Ain’t Got No Home
10. Streets of Philadelphia
11. Hearts of Stone
12. Further On (Up The Road)
13. Devils & Dust
14. When The Saints Go Marching In
15. Long Walk Home

Whilst I was recording it became clear I was recording one song from almost each of Springsteen’s studio albums, so I was thinking of continuing that trend. However it would have had to be a double cd considering the amount of studio albums and thus taken me a lot longer to complete (I have been busy recording this album, starting with demos back in February). In the end I am happy with the song choices and although some gems I was thinking of recording such as “Queen of The Supermarket” / “Downbound Train” and “Land of Hope and Dreams”, I can always do those songs at a later stage for Volume 3 perhaps?

The flipside is that I have now done 25 Bruce Springsteen songs back to back thus I am looking forward continuing with my own music for the next couple of years at least.

I will be working on the artwork for this album over the next couple of days and hope to have it all complete by the weekend so that copies should be available well before mid September. Will post an update when ready.

Peace,

Andrew

..still recording songs for the second tribute cd.
At this stage there is a possibility it may turn out a double cd, which would be great if it did.
I am about halfway through recording the songs and it seems I am picking a song from each of Bruce Springsteen’s studio albums

Hopefully be done with the recording towards the end of August after which I will put the songs up in the cds/albums section of the site.

I have quite a few photos to add to the site from a Bruce Springsteen concert I went to in June and from my holiday in Disneyland Paris. Will post them soon.

Hi again,

I had a question come through about if people can buy the albums on this site. You certainly can. Just send an email to andrew@ (this domain) and I can sort something out. All cds come with proper artwork and professionally printed cds.
I only charge for cd materials and shipping costs as I’m not into music to make money out of and do not hold copyright of songs I have not written.

Currently taking a break from recording but will be putting up the 2nd Springsteen tribute cd over the next few months along with one filled of Bob Dylan songs.

In the long run I aim to complete “Thunder” around the autumn, an album filled with my own songs again.

Thanks and peace,

Andrew
