A folksy number inspired by the stories my nan told me many moons ago about her uncle Herbie..
Herein lies the story, of a man named Herbie Jones.
Not a million miles away from a man you might have known.

Just letting out my frustration at 'people' in general again.. nice to be able to vent it in a more pleasant way (for those interested in how I used to do it, please see http://alonetone.com/boynamedsu) :)
Lo and behold now holy guacamole if…

Haunting!
And liking the confession. :-) But as you know, it's a personal challenge. Almost half of my cd was recorded by (a) other people and (b) in 2009, so...you know.
This provides a theory which ties together two of my key traits a) always tired b) terminally disappointed by peoples lack of courtesy - there's a link people!
Did you ever feel so down
That you didnt know up
Didnt recognise highs
And smiles…

Wow, what a tribute. Kinda Neil Young vibe. (I always fancied that scrubbing by the fire thing, but was several decades too late.)
"Very well put together," says Husband. And he doesn't mean me.
Second of two songs on the album about trying to be a better person. The first was about people not trying, this is about struggling (and kinda failing) to be a better person than you have been. Slide parts courtesy of Gary...

Have no idea where this one came from. I was strumming away and the words just came out. Seems to be about some kind of wrongdoing in the past. May have been possessed. Thanks again to Gary for helping out on lead..

This one is about how falling in love kind of involves giving up any say in whether or not your heart gets trampled. It's about that fear. Gary doing a sterling job as usual on lead guitar..
She's amazing
Beauty holds no bounds
and her voice…

Another with the £16 special.............
My baby, she don't want me (Lyrics)
My baby, she don't want me,
i don't know what to do
i need her,
i believed her
she was hollow and untrue
My baby, she don't want me,
i don't know what to do
i need…

HE’S GONE (lYRICS)
IT WAS A CARELESS LOVE THAT TOOK HIM AWAY
OF COURSE THERE WAS NEVER GONNA BE THE RIGHT KINDA DAY
TO SAY GOODBYE…
Wedding march written a long time ago for a friend and a failed marriage. The song symbolizes hope and trust in the face of fear. The composition is all that's left of that now, but, it still means something. Not our usual, so please don't…
I've been watching the new series on the Great Train Robber Mrs Biggs which is about the robbery and his escape through his wives eyes......tonights episode got me thinking about what you know about your work mates...the answer is what they tell…
I am a man, of means,
I mean I hide behind my strongest teeth.
White Ivories, white ivory.
I tread on hollow ground,
Broken glass, and longer ways down.
Than metaphors, engulfing me
I stare up at night,
Wonder who else might feel such a fright…
Poor old Reg still meeting the wrong women .....even when his playing the £16 special.........

Guy out on the town looking for some action. Girl out on the town looking for some action. Meet in a club where cheesy disco is playing - they don't care, it's not the reason they are there. Collab with Lady Jane. Had us both laughing - enjoy.
Another lyrically-challenged collaboration with jip1965, who sent me a guitar, bongo, percussion track with a recorder playing named, simply, 'Love'.
I added the piccolo, crystals and windchimes from my virtual keyboard, renamed it 'What is…
Another one jip1965 sent to me for playing with!
Silent and magical
Calming and practical
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Filtering through the air
Twinkling in our hair
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Dancing on the leaves of trees
Shaking…
I need an electric geeetar. My weary old Crafter electroacoustic picks up every touch. 'Scuse the solo, I'm only a strummer..

As a surprise for the missus (she gets out of hospital tomorrow after a 9 week stay) I've revamped a little ditty I wrote for her. I thought I'd put an Elvis slant on it including the ridiculous club style ending. I also slipped a bit of a British…
This track took a bit longer than expected to complete, however it's been one of our favorites in a while. It all started on night after leaving gig and we'd needed a little something to spice it up on the dance floor. Hence, we began something…
A 90 second song, written and recorded on the evening of 12th June 2012.

You've got something genuine going on with your music.
So soulful. Full of soul. So.
Fabulous!
Holy guacamole! This year's Calligraphy, me thinks! Awesome!

I'm really loving your lone singer-songwriter arrangements this year, Alex. Really shows off the quality of your song-writing and your GREAT voice.

This is a nice, foot tapping mover. I like the piano work and the driving rhythm.
Love the piano in this one.
Great stuff man!
strawberry? hehe Never heard that one. You guys do make a good duo...
Good grief, did you get this vocal from the bottom of your boots? What a range, boy! Love the music also - kind of haunted slide guitar fairground.
