Engineered, Mixed and Produced by Peter Strachan at 2 Dalton Hill, Hamilton, South Lanarkshire. This recording was made on a Tascam 244 four track cassette recorder.

I wrote this song when I was a member of Djaelani, Strachan & Harvey. I decided to record the track, along with a number of my other songs, when I first bought a 4 track recording machine. This is when I initially began learning how to record and mix my music .. I hope you enjoy . Peter.
Hearing you speak like I've never before
Knowing your trying to close your door
Got to get you to realise Your so wrong
But you just don't want to Listen to my words babe
Your mixed up something bad and you don't even see babe
Love is what you need (Ah Yeah)
And love is what you want (Yeah)
Love is what you need (Love so true)
And love is what you want (Yeah)
Baby you've changed and I don't have to say
Your putting it on now day after day
I try to explain but you don't even hear me
And you just don't want to Listen to my words babe
Your mixed up something bad and you don't even see No No
You don't even see
Take the chance if that's the life you really want
I don't know what's in your mind anyway
But if it's true that you need someone close to you
Then baby don't go Baby don't go
You know your turning away from the friends that you knew
Living a life that just ain't you
Your gonna fall down one day and soon You know that
If only you'd relax Smile and let your hair down
Instead of talking good Then crying when no one's around
Love is what you need (Love is what you need sweet darlin)
And love is what you want (Yeah)
Love is what you need (Oh baby)
And love is what you want (Yeah)
Love is what you need .....
Yet again my views are getting attacked by RUclips.. 14 days in and they have removed over 260 views.. I have since had a really good explanation from another youtuber as to why this is happening. Without going on and on (which I am prone to) YT is doing this to thousands of uploaders deliberately and they, the YT company, appear to be in a bit of a mess.
I haven’t listened to Sade in quite some time .. I really do feel it was the sax that brought the vibe all the way home - excellent song Peter .. has all the feels
Cheers Todd.. When I wrote this song, my band, Djaelani Strachan and Harvey were getting a quote a bit of interest from record companies.. I tried to write a single.. It did not work out as our managers were crooks and stole everything, but maybe we could have made it if things we had different people behind us .. Anyway, you can decide if this song was strong enough.. All the best my friend.. Peter
Another awesome song, this music is such a joy to listen to, brings back memories of the kind of music from when I grew up

What a gorgeous song, Peter. The gentleness of your vocals and the sway of the melody makes for a very sweet and enjoyable listen, my friend. 🌹
Cheers Deborah .. I really appreciate you kind comment on my wee song and vocals .. This is an early song of mine which I first sang with my pals, Bruce & Willie. We used just two acoustics and a bass .. A while later, when I got some recording equipment, I decided to record a new version with more instruments.. To me, all the songs on my first album have a nice melodic feel to them .. Hope you and Greg are doing well .. Peter.

This could easily be one of Paul McCartney's biggest hits. Dalton Hill must have been an inspirational place to work! Look forward to your release of the whole series, Peter. Way to roll. ~ Bruce
Hi Bruce.. Great to hear from you my friend.. Dalton Hill was a 2 bedroom house.. I could only record on a Saturday and Sunday afternoon.. My recording machine was a Tascam 244 four track cassette recorder which sat on top of a wardrobe Monday to Friday.. I brought it downstairs to our living room on a Saturday morning and built it up along with microphone, guitar amp, guitars and drum machine.. Yvonne and Alan would go out about 12.00 and then I would start.. This happened only when I had a new song to work on.. If I did not have a song.. I would just go out with the family.. The final results were great but I always say that I learned how to record and then mix a track in that wee living room.. Good times.. Peter.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful song , Peter 🙏❤👌🤗
Cheers Willie .. So pleased that you Liked my song .. All the best .. Peter.
Very nice song Peter. Very smooth and melodic. Got a real touch of McCartney about it. Your voice sounds great. Love the harmonies too. The saxophone is nice. Enjoyed it very much. A lovely cruising song.
Cheers John.. Glad you enjoyed my song.. My friend David, played the Sax on this track.. The chorus cried out for harmonies.. This recording is quite basic but it still sounds not too bad.. Hope you are doing well my friend.. Peter.

Great song here.
Thanks Yvonne.
Hello!
Yes, well done! Some high notes there (A4, B4, I think even a C5)!
In the end it is all about how good the instrumental parts sound and about how well the vocals convey the intended message of the song!
Good job! A warm, welcoming instrumental sound and nice sounding vocals with a few vocal runs here and there that fit the theme of this song!
Have a nice day!

Hi Peter Sounding fab considering it was recorded back in the day. Great comments on your song writing, vocals and production😊 Regards David
Hi David.. Great to hear from you my friend.. I still remember our recording sessions on this song and later, Go Boogaloo.. Your Sax playing is excellent on both tracks.. I hope you are doing well and if you are at a loose end.. Give me a call for a catch up.. All the best.. Peter
You have a great voice bro. very laid back and tasteful
Cheers Dwight.. Thanks for the visit and Like too.
Lovel intro to the song. The rimshots are a classic device used so well here. Terrific harmonies. Do you ever sing on Jingles for local radio? Great sax coming in at just under 2 minutes. Great job, my friend. You havea lot of talent. Respect!
Hi David.. Cheers for the Like and your kind words on my song.. I have never done any jingles but a couple of my pals have.. When I was younger, My band, Djaelani Strachan and Harvey, was offered about 7 publishing deals in just over 18 months.. In those days you received money from the companies.. Unfortunately, we had crooks for managers who stole all our money sent from these companies.. We did not find out until after we split.. There were also a couple of recording contracts too with my band, The Titles .. These collapsed at the last minute, caused by infighting from just one of the guys.. I feel we were great songwriters and singers but it was not meant to be.. Anyway, you can hear my songs on this channel and decide yourself if maybe I was good enough.. As you get a bit older, you realise there is more important things in life than "making it".. Peter.
😊😊😊✌️
Cheers.
