Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

**Nobody Loves You - A A J Russe**
Nobody loves you
Like you…
I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…
This is "Bonus Hockey" Andrew!!! I love the anticipation a slide guitar creates. Reminds me of the solo acoustic live version of "Your Bright Baby Blues" by Jackson Browne.

A new one...
I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat).
But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…

Yes, I love it. The subtle/strong cadences switch around enough to easily glide through 4+ minutes. Well done with that - I'm inspired to try something lengthy that doesn't sound like it has filler in it.
The heart of the song's meaning kept you from hitting the delete button - That's what makes me like it even more!

Keyboards (bagpipes) performed by Starry Nightmoth. Lead guitar by George Harrison. Vocals and all other instruments performed by Gene Eric Mann. Thunder and rain by Mother Nature. Lyrics by John Lennon.
so.... i first wrote & recorded this song in 2015, and then did a new version in 2017, and here's my updated 2020 version...
still not totally happy with it but... here we are anyway lol...
A new song that I wrote last week
This lockdown starts to work on my nerves
KC
Caught in a lockdown – And there's no way out
It drives me crazy – Wanna shout out loud
Caught in a lockdown – The days all look the same
I'm losing track…
One of the last songs we recorded before the lockdown
Hans Nooitgedagt Jr - drums
Bingsolex - lead guitar
Erwin B - bass, recording
KC - vocals, guitar, keys & mix
When you told me I was blind
It almost blew my mind
When you told…
Fabulous groove. Nice balance too - everything's really clear... There's a "real musicians playing real music and getting off on it" vibe. Love how it kicks off, promises much, and then the song doesn't disappoint. Nice one.
Toms tune, lyrics, vocals, guitars, bass
Chris drums Johnny Keys
You Were There
You were there
With yellow flowers in your hair
And the summer air seemed to get us high
The county fair
Was lit up like a caution flare
And it was there…
Tom and Chris’s tune, Toms lyrics, vocals, guitars, bass, mando, banjo, harp and some keys
Chris drums - Johnny Keys
Poor Mans Paradise
I was born in a thunderstorm
Rolling down highway one
With the poor mans tax upon my back
Before…
Garys tune, lyrics, vocals, guitars, bass
Chris Drums
Johnny Keys
Why’d You Have To Go
BEEN AROUND FOR MANY YEARS
WASHED AWAY SOME PAINFUL TEARS
MET SOME FRIENDS ALONG THE WAY
SOME STUCK AROUND SOME WENT AWAY
BUT I STILL THINK…
Listening to "Triptones - What Colors You?" while working away in another window... this one jumped out at me as it started... that guitar... brought me over to comment... loving the album so far :) ... you keep playing guys... I'll go back to documenting "Batch Printing - Request" now lol
A few thoughts on this one....
First.. does that... could it... do you think... Reggae? I wasn't planning on that but it just sort of happened. I'm not sure how but... I think... I think I might like it.
In a spur of the moment thing…
Oh yes, nice one. Digging the tempo changes. And some excellent guitar playing. I'm never sure about EC's "woman tone" thing, seems to work best for me on an SG (possibly because of the neck pickup closer to the bridge?) ... but you got some very cool sounds out of it here... I might have to experiment again
This is a song that I wrote some years ago
I wasn't satisfied with the result and completely rerecorded it
KC
I woke up this morning, tried to get out of bed
My head was in a spin. Lord, I felt so bad
My hands were trembling, my knees…

Well the virus has my friend and music partner in Krakow Poland sheltering in place but we are using the time to write and record..here is our latest...we tried to write in the style of Motown...check it out ... all music and production by Art…
Two weeks since we went into lock down
We can't play together now so we all played at home and sent the files to eachother.
Hans Nooitgedagt Jr - drums
Bingsolex - lead guitar
Erwin B - bass
KC - guitar, vocals, keys and mix
Times like…
C.S. Lewis once wrote about the concept of "out of simple evil comes complex good." These are trying times, an understatement if there ever was one. As you read this, you have uncertainties and fears for what our current situation means for right…
This is bathed in reverb... probably too much! It's got a bit of a Southern Rock vibe at 1:00 to 1:45- then it has a big 'glow-stick Prog Rock' ending to it
Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…
Comments on Andrew Russe's stuff
Okay....yes I just read that you had resurrected "Lucy" from snuggly guitar case. Nice:)
Rockin tune. Yes, I agree..has a ZZ vibe for sure. Sounds like a Les Paul standard????
I dig this arrangement as well. :) I like the demo's intimate feel.
This is "Bonus Hockey" Andrew!!! I love the anticipation a slide guitar creates. Reminds me of the solo acoustic live version of "Your Bright Baby Blues" by Jackson Browne.
I hear the Rev Billy Gibbons
I think Rick left some comments on songs of mine, but we never really talked to each other. What a pity to know that we never will.
Another great song!
Very well done!
cool beans... nice structure, very clean. I don't like throwing out comparisons but it feels Three Dog Night-ish!
Yes, I love it. The subtle/strong cadences switch around enough to easily glide through 4+ minutes. Well done with that - I'm inspired to try something lengthy that doesn't sound like it has filler in it.

Another gem A
Nice tribute... really like this version too.
Pure and beautifully performed ....
Like it raw and cool
ohhhh, slide me sad. Great tortured vocal I read the chat about the bass line. I will try to play along to better get the idea.
Solid track Andrew. Top notch.
Amazing. Thanks for posting this version too...
Raw talent is what this shows.
ain't that true.......love it!!
Like it - nice instruments and production.
Comments made by Andrew Russe
Still miss you Gene
I like all three versions. This is the one that pulled me in.
Liking your stuff.
Very interesting... just searched Sonic Pi... VERY interesting.
Like it! Getting a laid back Tom Petty vibe.
Cool! I'm intrigued to know what else you're going to do on these tracks once the world has returned to normal and you've got access to more kit.
Fabulous groove. Nice balance too - everything's really clear... There's a "real musicians playing real music and getting off on it" vibe. Love how it kicks off, promises much, and then the song doesn't disappoint. Nice one.
Another goodie. Digging the bass sound on this one.
Another mighty fine album. Well done guys :)
Loving the banjo, harp, etc vibe

Excellent stuff - does it for me.
Yep sounds even better on my main set up. Excellent start to my working at home day :)
Only got my naff laptop speakers on hand right now... But loving it anyway. The bluesy guitar is fantastic. Yay!
Oh yeah. This put a big smile on my face.
Tasty stuff
Love it
Yep. Mighty cool stuff. Welcome to Alonetone :)
Yep :)
