First new one from me in a long time.
Kind of a love song, I guess.
Recorded in my new "studio" (3rd bedroom in the new house). Almost up and running now... shine and don't stop wondering!

Every time I think you won't be able to top what you've already done you prove that you actually can. I love the sound of this song - needless to mention your voice and songwriting.
Good to hear something new from you, Andy! Keep them coming!

Steffen
The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…

From about 1st 1.28 seconds I was hooked.
The vibe is Just right for me (listening on laptop speakers and the song is filling the room!) ....
Just the right amount of quirk to spiral that roots sound into the stratosphere!
I love how you have the Reggae, Gypsy and Rock merged into one amazing showcase of Talent that cant help but shine!
If you are ever in London, Let me know and we will do a Vodcast for you.
Peace

Acoustic love song. Written and recorded between Christmas 2010 and the New Year.
I'd just finished recording Elizabeth's Room and was tooling up to record a pop-rock song when this little beast popped out of nowhere, almost perfectly formed…
Didn't want to write this song … I figured there were one-thousand songwriters (here in north Texas alone) that were stuck at home and writing goofy songs about the virus. But, it wouldn't leave me alone, so I recorded it to get it out of my head.
Black is white
White is black
I crossed the line
I can’t go back
It all comes together
It all falls apart
I’m on the edge
From the start
I’ve gone Colour Blind
To her signs, Colour Blind
Tears on your face
A broken heart
Unkind…
We're bored in lockdown again. I call out for collaboration and Joe Whibley pops out of the aether. And this is what happened. Joe did a fucking fantastic job with most of the work (playing all the instruments and a vocal), I just stuck in some…
I’ve been trailing yarn for days,
Ahead of what may come, dismay.
Soot, and ash, and bone-
Gnarled and undone.
I’ve been railing stone for change,
Two cents - task on the brain.
Root, and clothes, and thrones-
Ravaged and unloved…
Are you scared to wake up?
In the same place you laid your head.
You scribble on your make up,
To pretend your face's not dead.
And I know,
Yes I know.
The opposition shows.
Are you afraid to take up?
Memoirs of your past.
You hang…
The trees are shaking, from your insolence.
They stagger, choking, their breath on the wind.
It makes me question, it makes me recant.
Where have we been, and where have we gone.
When's the point when we say all is lost.
Is lost.
Swimming…
I,
Like the Tide,
Have been breathing with the moon overhead,
While the world lay all silent in stead.
The rocks peaking out on the bed,
The anchors all out in the dredge.
My eyes,
See too slight,
With a heavy brow, I look towards the…
I see in color,
Even when, the words, black and white
I hear in flutters,
Even when, the words come in trite.
After all,
I'm tied to this anchor.
I'm tied to this hull.
Tied to this deck, through the night.
I better get to climbing…
My spirit's been running wild
Chasing cats, and howling at the moon
I've felt this way for awhile dear
Yeah someday, I'm gonna marry you.
So go put on your firey cap,
Be my anchor and my mast.
If I ever feel lost at sea,
I'll just remember…
A brand new song....
Don't listen to the man
You know who!
Since we can't play together because of the lockdown we all played our parts at home.
Hans Nooitgedagt Jr - drums
Bingsolex - guitars
Erwin B - bass
KC - vocals, guitars, keys…
wow I haven't uploaded on here in 2 years....
this is a remake I did last year of a song I did in 2015...
Still not perfect & I might redo it again but hey ho...
Wow... this one's intense. Love how you were reaching for stuff here... I can see the progression from the earlier version which was almost TOO intense for us!! lol
soooooooo this is an acoustic-y (technical term) song about something... reevaluating the lyrics suggests possibly a murder? (tho idk it can mean anything tbh)...
i wrote this song today and then recorded it today and then was like wooaah why…
I was listening to your stuff late last night, early this morning... wotever... Playing it to Mrs R now... she hears the same thing as me... You have an AMAZING voice... do some more - PLEASE! :)
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…

We're liking the two voice thing.

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.
