I wrote a song Raynes Park. Well I thought I&#8217;d written it when Viv came up with a cracking line and taught me about song writing! The song exists in two versions the orignal recording and video made on digi tape and a new studio version of the song and a video made with an android phone video. This is the new phone 2026 video and song. Both can be found on Youtube. The new studio version of the song is also available on Bandcamp. I&#8217;ll be including this on the set list at The Cavern SW20 on Wednesday 27th May. I&#8217;ll not be getting a Greyhound bus to the gig I&#8217;ll be taking the 131. I hope you will also.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Raynes Park by Dick Philpot the studio version 2026\" width=\"1099\" height=\"618\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NCuriK7AWc0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Way back in the mists of time over 20 years ago when I was teaching myself to play guitar, sing, write songs and make videos.
