by The Lachy Doley Group

MarkMcCann61 Outstanding, has the most groove happening of anything I have heard. Organ and Clav are alive, Drums and Bass are cutting it beautifully. Depth is incredible. Favorite track: A Woman.

grand_flange Just like grooving to those key sounds & supporting local talent. Thnx

V1 I don’t care bout those high heels your wearing baby I just want your stare I don’t need no twerk dance your pushing honey Your walk says it all - yeah See girls don’t light my fire baby I need a wo wo woman V2 I’d jump from speeding train I’d swim cross kaleidoscope bay I’d sink this knife straight into my heart If I could only have just one more night with ya See girls don’t light my fire baby I need a wo wo woman V3 I’ve no time for the games people playing Used them more than a once before I just need some affirmative action Need a woman with experience Girls don’t light my fire baby I need a wo wo woman
2.	Cruel Cruel World 03:53	lyrics
V1 Everybody wants to be loved by someone and I ain’t no exception to the rule. She found me half way down a bottle of whiskey when I thought my life had come to an end. She said CH It’s a Cruel Cruel World I know you love her but now it’s through It’s a Cruel Cruel World - it’s true So let me ease the pain till morning’s new V2 Tell me do you ever, look back and wonder Where it all went astray? Best intentions, don’t mean nothing And love? where’s it even fit in? She said It’s a Cruel Cruel World I know you love her but now it’s through It’s a Cruel Cruel World - it’s true I know it cos I’m hurting too BRD Lets lose the past and make no plans Lets quit this space And make a get-away We're all we need Just you and me Ah today It’s a Cruel Cruel World I know you love her but now it’s through It’s a Cruel Cruel World - it’s true Let me ease the pain till morning’s new It’s a Cruel Cruel World I know you love her but now it’s through It’s a Cruel Cruel World - it’s true Let me ease the pain till morning’s new
3.	The Greatest Blues 05:04	lyrics
I got the greatest blues Cos I went and lost the greatest love I got the greatest blues Cos I went and lost the greatest love Now my hearts so heavy baby Since you left and gone Now I cried me a river Deep as a mountain high Yeah I cried me a river Deep as a mountain high Now I’m slowly slowly drowning And I feel I’m gonna die I got the greatest blues Since I went and lost the greatest love I got the greatest blues Cos I went and lost the greatest love I ever known Now my hearts so heavy baby Since you left and gone The only thing keep me going Is playing the blues for you.
4.	The Strut 04:16	lyrics
V1 Hey mister man. Lend me a hand. I got know what it’s all about. People shakin lots of eye making. Right place. No doubt. Well I see you with that long black jacket and I lose cool and stack it The band turns the beat up to 143 there’s only one thing left for me. CH I do the Strut. Like I own the lot Make the Deal. Got to keep it real I do the flirt. I ain’t gonna do the dirt Fake it stake it awww, til I you make it ha V2 Now me and pa pa patina we we’re getting kinda sweeter when the barman he said no dice. Then in walked Chevy and his band of heavies and I knew I’d have to run to stay alive. Cut across the floor need to reach the fire door. Gotta try to make my awesome geta-way Kicked of my feet damn history repeat now there’s only one thing left for me CH I do the Strut. Like I own the lot Make the Deal. Got to keep it real I play the Bluff. Straight of the cuff baby Fake it stake it awww, awww til I we make it ha
5.	Give It (But You Just Can't Take It) 05:50	lyrics
V1 Hey now people have you ever met some one that lives only for themselves. Your best friend when it suits their hand but if it doesn’t you’re left by yourself. Got to be right can never be wrong but if the facts they just don’t get along, They get cut in huff and a puff and well now baby I’ve had enough CH I’ve got to pack it up I’ve got to quit our love V2 Well now brothers and sisters and a mothers and all you papas too. What you put in is what you pull out. Now I tell ya hey that’s the truth. Don’t expect for all the people you misuse to not turn and give it back to you. That’s life not a roll of the dice. Just a victim of your own device CH I’ve got to pack it up I’ve got to quit our love
6.	Into the Alone 05:39	lyrics
V1 Monday I found you By Wednesday I was in love Friday I told you Then Sunday you broke my heart I know I was wrong But you’re the first in so very long See I’m little immature and a whole lot of insecure So I guess I’ll be on my way to the only place I know I’m heading straight back into the alone V2 Same old story I think love just ain’t my friend I feeI I got to hide away - cos I don’t want to be hurt again See I’m all or nothing I don’t dwell down the middle of the road Pack my heart back on the shelf. I'm better off by myself So guess I’ll be on my way to the only place I know I'm heading straight back into the alone. BRD I can’t help the way I feel about you baby yeah Tell me why loving you so wrong when these feelings are so strong SOLO I won't let you go baby See I’m all or nothing I don’t dwell down the middle of the road I pack my heart back on the shelf. I'm better off by myself So guess I’ll be on my way to the only place I know I'm heading straight back into the alone. I'm heading straight back into the alone Only place I know Why? Why Babe? Heading straight. Heading straight back Into the alone
7.	Make Or Break 06:06	lyrics
V1 I've put all my eggs in one basket For the last eight years I’ve lost a lot of friends along the way baby And I’ve masked a lot of tears I keep on borrowing more time Anything for the cause And now in the blink of an eye Our baby's now a boy CH We’re gonna make or break No more give and take Ain’t gonna waste no time on the same mistakes This is our time It’s on my dime Gonna take chance To reach the high V2 I’m feel myself teetering So close to the edge One moment I’ve come so far And the next I ain’t achieved shit I’ve always thought I was a nice guy With some talent to stake But maybe I’m neither and TONIGHT’S MAKE OR BREAK CH We’re gonna make or break No more give and take Ain’t gonna waste no time on the same mistakes This is our time It’s on my dime Gonna take chance To reach the high
8.	Mix Tape 04:00	lyrics
I was always a hy-per colour tee shirt guy She was always a dream just out of my reach My favourite times from way back when We’re sharing earbuds from my Walkman Now I wonder if there’s life on mars and you still think of me. CH Well there’s an old yearbook hiding that’s bookmarked to your name By a yo yo painted purple that you left behind that day And a photo slowly fading of what we might have been Next to a mix tape undelivered marked ‘the way I feel’ V2 Bartender give me another and let me talk shit a time See my mind keeps on reliving our last goodbye She’s waving back from her folks truck And I’m running I’m running just trying to keep up Now I wonder if there’s life on mars and you still think of me. CH Well there’s an old yearbook hiding that’s bookmarked to your name By a yo yo painted purple that you left behind that day And a photo slowly fading of what we might have been Next to a mix tape undelivered marked ‘the way I feel’ BR So if the needle returned to the start of this song would it change a thing? Now I know the future and this world we live in Would it be better, just left a dream? I don't wanna risk my sweetest memories CH Now there’s an old yearbook hiding that’s bookmarked to your name By a yo yo painted purple that you left behind that day And a photo slowly fading of what we might have been Next to a mix tape undelivered marked ‘the way I feel’
9.	The Killer 05:41	lyrics
V1 Oh when the lights go down. My blood pressure goes up and I can feel the beat of 10000 souls Just like volts rising up now and Band counts 1 2 3 4 As I take to the floor. That’s when I see her. It’s like fever. Baby what’s your name? CH They call me the Killer. Killer Killer Killer. Stare to long you’ll turn to stone. Killer Killer Killer. I’ll mesmerise I’ll hypnotise ya. Killer Killer Killer. With a hold that’s tougher than 8 foot Gorilla. Killer Killer Killer. V2 I can’t I can’t concentrate I keep on making mistakes I don’t know where to look You know those eyes they must be at least 10 foot wide. Baby. Why are you so damn cruel? You got me acting a fool. That's when I feel her yank my sneaker. So I lean down real close and she says you know. CH They call me the Killer. Killer Killer Killer. Stare to long you’ll turn to stone. Killer Killer Killer. I’ll mesmerise I’ll hypnotise ya. Killer Killer Killer. With a hold that’s tougher than 8 foot Gorilla. Killer Killer Killer. BR Why didn’t I come find you? Baby Baby Why didn’t I come find you? Baby Baby But at least we’ll always know that together CH We were the Killers. Killer Killer Killer. Stare to long you’ll turn to stone. Killer Killer Killer. I’ll mesmerise I’ll hypnotise ya. Killer Killer Killer. With a hold that’s tougher than 8 foot Gorilla. Killer Killer Killer. Killer Killer Killer. Killer Killer Killer. Killer Killer Killer. Killer Killer Killer.
10.	Can't Get Close To You 05:59	lyrics	buy track
V1 In the summer of 84 Me and my friend camped out on the floor Watching a rocket man carry the flame I remember the wonder we shared that day But no matter how I try I can’t get close to you V2 That day you showed me how to ride my bike If I close my eyes I can almost feel that pride Now I’ve been searching ever since To relive that feeling once again But no matter how I try I can’t get close to you V3 Ain’t nobody who can me lift me up Ain’t nobody who can bury me down so low You might think I just let it go But hey how would you know because no matter how I try I can’t get close to you BR Can't get close to you I can't get you close to you No matter how hard I try Always left by and by Always. Alwyas Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na V4 So it’s time I start anew I got to move on not with but without you And I’ll always feel it’s a crying shame That a pact so tight fell by the ways But no matter how I try I can’t get close to you.

about

Lachy Doley Sydney, Australia

Dubbed the Jimi Hendrix of the Hammond Organ, a player who can pump, pamper and pound unbelievable, intense, ferocious and sometimes transcendent sounds from his organ and clavinet, only to fire powerful bluesy vocals that rip straight from the heart screaming as they pass the vocal chords to produce one mesmerising and unforgettable show. ... more

One of the best blues bands here. I'm really enjoying their music, excellent performance and perfect mastering of the tracks. Beautiful listening experience on both big speakers, headphones and my car stereo. Really have not any favorite track because I love all the album's "A day in San Jose","Catfish" and "Bad whiskey". Highly recommend,not only for blues lovers. Veselin Georgiev
