The Last Nail
http://andyroberts.me/havering-folk-club/the-last-nail
The Last Nail Live at HFC I played my own song “The Last Nail” live at Havering folk club last week on the 12 string guitar. Here’s the video:
The Last Nail is also the name of the next Andy Roberts album The Last Nail Lyrics
Above the stone walled harbour, or down the winding hill That’s where they built the boatyard, and the structure stands there still. Not much boat building happens now, just repairs and fitting out but when the wind rattles the boatmasts, you can hear the old boatbulders shout: Will you pass the last nail over and I’ll knock it into place, Then with four more coats of varnish, she’ll be ready for the race. Our grandfathers put up the boatyard, to build the fishing fleet, more than fifty boats in the harbour, and shops all down the main street then the steam age brought in the drifters, boat builders became engineers Now the wind blows straight through the boatyard, there’ll be no more boat building here Will you pass the last nail over and I’ll knock it into place, Then with four more coats of varnish, she’ll be ready for the race. With a keen eye for staying in business, they switched over to build leisure craft And the weekend yachtsmen snapped them up, no expense spared fore or aft Then wooden hulls went out of fashion, the order book emptied last year So the bankers foreclosed on the boatyard, and there’ll be no more boatbuilding here Will you pass the last nail over and I’ll knock it into place, Then with four more coats of varnish, she’ll be ready for the race. Now the Vikings invented the clinker for both strength and shallow seas and the herring boats followed the coastline, until the canning ships found the key There’s a regatta here every August, and the whole village turns out again But the Sea Queen’s no real competition, and it’s guaranteed to rain Will you pass the last nail over and I’ll knock it into place, Then with four more coats of varnish, she’ll be ready for the race. Above the stone walled harbour, or down the winding hill that’s where they built the boatyard, and the skeleton stands there still. No more boat building happens now, not even fitting out but when the wind rattles the boatmasts, you can still hear the old boys shout: Will you pass the last nail over, we’ll knock it into place, Then with four more coats of varnish, she’ll be ready for the race. Wrecked Again The second song is Michael Chapman‘s “Wrecked Again”

Episode 7 Andy Roberts Music Podcast
http://andyroberts.me/andy-roberts-music/episode-7-andy-roberts-music-podcast
Episode 7 of the weekly Andy Roberts music podcast series features the 12 string guitar again, with three original self written songs, and three others by Michael Chapman, Cat Stevens and Loudon Wainwright. We had some problems with the live Ustream again this week, problems with time taken to login, with the chat room stopping working and with interruptions to the listener stream but the recording happened fine so the audio podcast and indeed the saved video file are unaffected. I would like to be able to provide a better live experience though, with fewer barriers to interaction so I may well start to try out some alternatives to Ustream as soon as possible, for example Bambuser. If you have any suggestions for alternatives to Ustream, or ways to improve it then please come forth in the comments here. Here are the links for Podcast Episode 7:

All songs performed with the 12 string vintage Guild acoustic guitar except 06 on the Ibanez 6 string Postcards from Scarborough – Michael Chapman Postcards is probably Mike Chapman’s most frequently covered songs, and I enjoy playing it on the 12 string guitar, flat picking style. The video below is from Havering Folk Club, January 2009 or possibly August 2008.
Shifting Sands – Andy Roberts Here’s an old demo video of Shifting Sands which was the first song in a sequence which I now refer to as “the Spanish songs” or the album Gernika
Wild World – Cat Stevens Yusuf Islam This is an old busking song which has some nice runs on the 12 string guitar.
The placeholder video is a six string version, which I’ll replace later.The Last Nail – Andy Roberts The Last Nail – info
I am The Way – Loudon Wainwright From Attempted Moustache The Loudon Wainwright Special was episode 4 Winter in Andalucia – Andy Roberts Winter in Andalucia ( or Andalusia ) is one of the songs on my Sampler CD I wonder if it might be good to have a simple index of which songs on each podcast somewhere, without the notes and videos etc. just for reference.
