Though Bristol PA will always be our spiritual home (for better or worse) we have decided to make the move to the big city, hence getting a song ready for January might be a tall order. I hate to start off 2005 a song short, especially since February won't be any less nightmarish, but I may have to.

Yes, all those piles of ready cash were getting in the way so we decided to get in over our heads financially, clearing room for eviction notices and bankruptcy forms in the process. What we lose in solvency we will gain in inspiration hopefully, thereby making it easier to catch up on our renewed promise to submit twelve new songs (at least) for the year.

See you soon from the reconstituted Camp O', until then plase feel free to familiarize yourself with the Oxford Boys back catalouge.

Someone must've been very good this year, because you got a bonus Oxford Boy song for Xmas!

Morgantown Volcano is waiting to be unwrapped, so please do.

Hey all, new tune ("Where Are You?") is up at SoundClick and once again my friend Judy Puckett has kindly provided some very inspiring lyrics. Thanks, Judy!

As this is December, I believe that completes my bargain - made so rashly in January of this year - to deliver a song a month. True, I skipped June, but I made up for it with two in July, so I'm still on track. And I never said I wouldn't call in some outside help, so don't try that garbage either!

Enjoy your holidays and the O' Boys will see you in the New Year, should it be kind enough to arrive. Cheers.

Good news! I have changed webhosts and can now offer mp3 streams instead of the dreaded Real Player streams. Woo-hoo!

You're welcome.

Bad news is that I have a tenth of the disc space, so a bunch of tunes are now only available by coming 'round my house and asking nicely.

Hey! New song posted at SoundClick. "A Heart Can Turn Into A Stone" has lyrics written by Judy Puckett, and I'll be working on more stuff to go with her words soon. Please visit and sample the wares, thanks.

WTF America?

Releasing this song is akin to plugging your finger in the dike, a temporary solution to the onslaught of mediocrity. No, it's not top notch Ox-pop, but to paraphrase Fox News (like that hasn't been done ad nauseum):I record, you decide.

With that, dig "Good Advice" and I'll see you in November with the real goods.

Quantity has not been a problem here lately, but quality has. Out of three or four recent songs, "Two Places (at one time)" is the only one I'll unleash on an unsuspecting populace.

The buzz coming from the instruments seems to be getting worse. That might be from increased use of effects (hello flanger!) but it's bad anytime. This song also features the debut of a new (used) acoustic to replace the crippled Fender.

New tune! This one actually has an involved story behind it.

You may be interested to know that "The Many Moods of Murray Wilson" is the first and last in a proposed cycle of songs dealing with the family drama surrounding one of the greatest bands of all time, the Beach Boys. The cycle will likely stop here, but all you need to know is that Murray was father to Brian, Carl and Dennis and a frustrated musician himself.

There are other Beach Boy related songs waiting to be written but for now just be glad for this one.

New song. "Sincere" may have the finest production value of any Oxford product yet. Drums sound almost real, decent singing and a sloppy mess of a slide guitar solo. You're welcome.
