'NOT JUST A TREE' by ARMSTRONG - a work in progress instrumental I've been working on this weekend along with 3 other pop songs for next Armstrong album which I think is going to be my best happy/sad guitar/pop album (lots of songs to record yet) 🫤😎😊🙁😊

Guitar practice 'Rainfall' by Armstrong - I have to practice playing this song often as I easily forget how to play these kind of guitar songs 😬 The original recording of this song is found on CD Album 'Songs About The Weather' available from @wallytbm.bsky.social Beautiful Music records (Canada) 🙂

*Brand-New* TAKING ME OVER AGAIN - ARMSTRONG (Brand New Digital Single available on Bandcamp. A Synth-Indie-Pop song influenced by New Order, Charlatans, The Associates, Talk Talk, OMD, ChinaCrisis, Beloved, FraLippoLippi, etc - Click here to listen... armstrong2.bandcamp.com/track/taking...

ARMSTRONG JUKEBOX - currently playing the 7" single 'SAVE US' by Philip Jap from 1982? Think it charted just outside the top 40 maybe? Still sounds great and love the big production. Has a kind of Eighth Day Hazel O'Connor / David Bowie Scary Monsters feel in my opinion...

TUESDAY AFTERNOON by THE MOODY BLUES is my top Tuesday pick today Pop-Pickers! The first 8 or 9 Moody Blues Albums are superb - you must hear them if you haven't before. DAYS OF FUTURE PAST from 1967 is my recommended first album to listen to... 😍
