This podcast is only temporary
Irish songwriter and producer Andy White’s fourth series of This podcast is only temporary tells the story of the writing and recording of his live album 'The night is approaching through some would say it was morning', recorded at Abbey Road with producer John Leckie.
Progressing through the day from morning to night, Andy tells the stories of the songs along the way - as in previous Series 3 in which he looked at his spoken word album 'Good Luck I Hope You Make It', and the first two series which go track by track through solo album ‘This garden is only temporary’ and the 'AT' album co-written with Tim Finn.

I Miss You
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Poets on the phone, Jim Morrison shopping for trousers, webless spiders, major/minor changes and so much simile content. Andy takes us on the rollercoaster ride of writing and recording I Miss You, the sixth song on his new album This garden is only temporary.
"I wanted to send someone a message without it being an email or electronic. I wanted to say I miss you."
Andy talks about songs from Time is a Buffalo in the Art of War and its title. Other songs he mentions are Riders on the Storm, Sweet Gene Vincent and Be Bop a Lula. Keeping songs under three minutes, more on bridges, perfect rhymes and tartan. Not forgetting a digression on past lives.
You'll hear the original recordings and a mix you haven't heard before. Andy hopes the series is becoming an inspiration for you to write or record.
"This song says something real without relying on an outcome. When you're making a record, have fun. It's a good idea."
