Bradley Rust Get your blues on. This is a fun and varied collection of tracks where no two are the same ensuring your attention is held throughout wondering what's coming next.
Love the frenetic pace of the instrumental 'All Or Nothing' while the more stripped back tracks work well too. The occasional female vocal chiming in works great, as do the range of instruments used (The sax is on point!) The lyrics are honest and direct giving a real genuine vibe overall which is needed for this intimate sound.

The Point Of No Return Just take a look out there a world that we all know It's disaster now and no-one seems to care We truly want a change but no-one wants to change We like to 'do our bit' and get on with our lives The point of no return the world could crash and burn but nature can survive if we keep her alive Now Now The point of no return Is it too late to learn some say yes and some say no we must decide which way to go We want technology not our own activity to come and save us all and clean up our pollution The point of no return the world could crash and burn but nature can survive if we keep her alive Now Now We need to act right now each and every one of us and take the next big step for future generations. The point of no return we really have to learn there is no time to spare our earth depends on us. The point of no return ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"She Said Yes" - April 2019 Well I like to make up rhymes I do it all the time And this one's for you. And I'm going to sing it now and make it loud and proud because I like you. You're such a pretty thing Just like a diamond ring I don't want to lose. I see you all the time You're always on my mind I can't ignore you. Well I might call over right now [might call over, when will you be mine?] and ask you right up front When will you be mine? And I hope you'll tell me straight [hope you'll tell me and that you'll see me] that I'm not too late and that you'll see me You're such a pretty thing I'll give you everything There's no time to lose I see you all the time You're always on my mind I can't ignore you So I'll wander over to you to see what you would do and just say 'how'd you do' No, I'll wait until it gets late and then I'll bring my mate and we'll ask her friend along too! Hey, it didn't go well today [It didn't go well so this time I'll call you] So I'll try again Tuesday and this time I'll call you [This time I'll call you] So we'll drop your cheeky mate [Drop your cheeky mate out of the blue] When I asked you for a date Out of the blue You're such a pretty thing Just like a diamond ring I don't want to lose. I see you all the time You're always on my mind I can't ignore you. Just say Yes, Yes .... She said Yes! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She Burned Me Down I had a dream, it made me think twice, About a girl who wasn't very nice She stole my keys and my wallet And then the house and everything in it She burned me down. The day came, I didn't plan it I just thought that enough was enough And left the girl that wasn't very nice to me. She burned me down A broken dream We couldn't go on It wasn't meant to be So, in my dream we started so right We got so drunk that very night Oh how we laughed and how we partied The best of times, I'm broken hearted She burned me down. The day came, I didn't plan it I just thought that enough was enough And left the girl that wasn't very nice to me. {She really burned me down.} {She really burned me down.} {She really burned me down.} {She really burned me down.} Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down She really burned me down. The day came, I didn't plan it I grabbed the hog and I rode out of town No looking back, no regrets, it's time to be free. {She really burned me down.} {She really burned me down.} {She really burned me down.} {She really burned me down.} [Lead break]. To freedom! [Wakes up ...] What a dream! Was it a dream? Music and Lyrics: Phillip Foxley Phillip Foxley - All Rights Reserved - 2021 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I've no illusions. it's plain to see It's not about religion It's about you and me It's a long road we just have to take respect for all cultures resolves fear and hate I see the danger if we can't unite as one We fall apart and freedom has gone I see the danger if we can't unite as one We fall apart and freedom has gone It's up to us All of us! It's Up To Us ... I see the danger if we can't unite as one We fall apart and freedom has gone I see the danger when the lost are lead by a few with cold hearts and one point of view It's up to us All of us!

I've Forgotten Something Else! - June 2018 I think there's something wrong I don't know what it is I've had it for a long time I don't remember things My mind goes round and round A really bad feeling I don't get it I don't want it It's like I'm going round the bend You agree! Hey! I don't wanna let it show Don't want to let you know But then I need to tell you Hey! I've forgotten something else Not sure just what it is I'll remember in a while I don't have sense of time And always the wrong place I'm constantly reminded I forget my keys and things And who I've got to ring And even where I'm driving No answer What question? It's like I've got no common sense You agree! Hey! I don't wanna let it show Don't want to let you know But then I need to tell you Hey! I've forgotten something else Not sure just what it is I'll remember in a while. Dum diddy dum dum dum ... Hey! I don't wanna let it show Don't want to let you know But then I need to tell you Hey! I've forgotten something else Not sure just what it is I'll remember in a while. Hey!

I Don't Want To Go: The wind is blowing strongly and it's pulling at my hair A 'thing' has appeared in front of me and I can only stare "What manner of beast is this"? I ask my self aloud "To be able to materialize in a swirling brimstone cloud"? The wind is blowing stronger and the 'thing' is coming near As I gaze upon it's face, I realise my worst fear The 'thing' has come to collect a debt that I owed it years ago A promise is a promise - but I really don't want to go! The 'thing' is now upon me and holding out it's hand. For many years I prospered in this mortal land. But now the time has come around and I've always understood. There's no escaping mortality and hiding will do no good! I don't want to go!

It's All About You! - Feb 2018: (V) Well I don't know what to do, 'cause I really don't trust you. Our leaders don't have time, Are you gonna walk the line? (V) Where's all the money gone? And where did it all go wrong? The cuts that don't make sense Have left us in a mess. (P-C) As I lie here thinking... My respect is sinking... Why do you let us down? (MAIN) (V) So I know you think it's ok, And I know you say we're fine, But you're running out of fight, And we're running out of time. (V) And I know we voted you in, But you had a secret plan, And the more you promise change The more things stay the same (P-C) As I lie here thinking... My respect is sinking... Why do you let us down? (V) Yet for all your privileged life You still take all you can There's no honour in your ways And the system doesn't change (V) When I see you on TV All your words they flow so well But the truth is hard to find! So you can go to hell! (P-C) As I lie here thinking... My respect is sinking... Oh! Why do you let us down? (LEAD BREAK) (V) You decide what's good for us From the safety of your tower Your words affect us all But you're blinded by the power (V) Well I know you-don't-think about us And you never-take-the-blame What about us? Ohh! It's not about us! (V) All your sordid words and deeds Yet we are jailed for less No judgement or control You're such a moral mess. (V) So you send us off to war to fight people we don't know Some just don't come back Yet your kind never go! (P-C) As I lie here thinking... My respect is sinking... Why do you let us down? It's all about you!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'll Be Right There! "There you go" I said. "Don't you know why I'm always standing in your shadow"? Then I find that we're going nowhere but I don't mind as long as I'm here with you. Say you love me Tell me that you really care and I'll be right there. Say you want me Tell me that I'm the only one and I will understand Then I'll know. Don't you tell me that you never say the truth I don't know where I'm going Then I try to find just some piece of mind I don't know what you're saying
9.
I Don't Mind: I don't mind if you ignore me I don't mind if you're way too cool All I ask is that you'll take care of me and stay with me when things go wrong. The smallest things can mean so much to me Like how I yearn for your touch So many things that you bring to me I just love you so much. Hold me, move me, kiss me like you'll lose control Squeeze me, tease me, promise that you'll never leave me I don't mind when you say you love me I don't mind when you say nice things All I ask is that you stay kind to me and give me space to be myself The smallest things can mean so much to me Like how I yearn for your touch So many things that you bring to me I just love you so much.

Promises: I'm so tired of all your promises and all the lies I've heard for so long. Now it's time to change the situation and live my life for me and me alone. I seem to spend all my days waiting around for you You never call or turn up on time You always let me down, I make excuses for you I have to say you're no longer on my mind. I really trusted you I know you want me to. But I know just what went wrong So wrong .... ... I don't need your ... You can keep your promises Promises .... I don't need your promises I'm better left alone Promises Promises I don't need your promises I'm better on my own. You can keep your promises.

about

Here's an eclectic collection of my original blistering blues rock guitar, post punk and soft acoustic and piano tracks written over the years. Every track means so much and every note is from my very soul.

This album is like my musical life story. It’s also a ‘big’ album in that there are over twenty tracks on it already and, because I don’t intend to release any more albums, I just keep adding tracks to it as they're released..

Thank you.

Phillip Foxley

“If you’ve never heard of Phillip Foxley then you should seek out his music, turn up the volume and zone out. It reflects the maturity so loved and appreciated in the great blues rock players. His song collection has all the right stuff; edgy blues to classically styled rock to soft acoustic and piano tunes. It’s like listening to three generations of blues-rock on one album”.
