Comes A Time (cover)
Recorded on 9th February 2023 in my parents' lounge area at their former abode, Comes A Time is a favorite because of its laid-back appeal.
Performed on a Donner DAD412CE acoustic this is a memorable session with Mum as cameraperson.
Neil Young's electric playing is also something I enjoy with Way Down in the Rust Bucket being an excellent recording which inspires me greatly.

Recorded on New Years Eve 2022 in Coffs Harbour City Centre this video displays Leon's predilection for Coldplay's hit Moses. Using my old Crafter solid cedar top guitar through a Fender Go acoustic amp on a Saturday Morning, we met with some of the people in the community displaying a generous spirit. This busking venture was designed as Cognitive Therapy that allows me to focus on experiencin...

Recorded at my West Coffs abode live on 19th December 2022. A bootleg video for enthusiasts showcasing Leon's spontaneous appeal on a Donner Mini Jumbo acoustic guitar. A Tony Joe White cover, this is one of Leon's all-time favorites to perform because of a melodic hook line.

An attempt to cover Coldplay's Clocks song before Leon got back on his bicycle to get fit. Recorded at Leon's home in West High Street, Coffs Harbour, on 5th May 2023. Sound engineer Jay Jones has a few words of encouragement for me at the end of this video. Leon was happy with his recording experiences and would like to share a more informal moment with fans.

Live on Saturday morning in September 2024 high in the Coffs Coast Hinterland at Eastern Dorrigo's Cafe in the Valley. I live with the positive symptoms of schizophrenia and felt some flattened emotions here on this occasion. My breakfast was too heavy and subsequentially we have a somewhat compromised rendition of this classic song because of some performance issues. Thanks to Anthony and Trac...

On 8th July 2023 this busking video was made on a cold, winters day. I first heard this song laying on my bed on a Saturday afternoon and was immediately taken by its warm, heartfelt, lyrical appeal. As a treatment resistant schizophrenic and convict criminologist I appreciate the name Bad Company. Thank you to Lisa, my sister, for her ongoing support of John and myself in our live playing.

A much-loved Bob Dylan favourite also something reminiscent of a gig of old at Emerald Beach Restaurant in the time of my youth. I still remember getting so stoned at a friend's place prior to performing, that, people could not believe just how red my eyes became. This is a special song because it is indicative of human incumbency and our decision to serve a higher power. I sometimes believe Th...

Live at Cafe in the Valley in Ulong. This was my first paid gig after some time out of the industry and it was heartwarming to have such a receptive audience present Saturday morning. Thanks to Rob Berry and Vin and Katie Sibio.

Leon and Eddie live at open mic. I learnt this Rolling Stones classic in my musical apprenticeship years ago. Still a crowd pleaser, it features Mr. Rudolph, my teacher, on electric guitar.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
A stayed performance on the day. Living with the negative symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia is severely debilitating and impacts on my playing a great deal. Thanks to John McKay for taking the video.
Playing here under duress as my morning rolled oats were overly filling. I had a battle to find my feet as my first performance on acoustic guitar vocals was quite a challenge. The Peavey LN1263 column array speaker was adequate for this occasion as it is 1200 watts with amazing surround sound from the 3" speakers at the top.
Seagull's choral strains are something reminiscent of Delta's rendition!
Nice one darling ❤️
Thanks 🤗
