Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…

So I got me a new geetar the other week.
Named her Lala, obviously. Seemed kind of appropriate - she wears a faded gold dress and is full of chunes and mischiefs.
This is our first effort together. It was meant…

Thanks for your latest round of positive comments, Andrew. Really most appreciated. Have access to unbelievable range of sound libraries etc and looking to try them all at the moment!!!

I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…

What’s on your mind
Are you losing confidence
Someone’s been unkind
And caring becomes a consequence
Look for a reason to smile
The Sun will shine your way
Look for a reason to smile
And watch the clouds drift away
Feeling like you…
Heres a new one a Reg cover of a zep song i recorded live https://alonetone.com/thetworegs/tracks/can't-quit-you-babe-(litc) then Ken (Hardlock) over on Songcrafters added everything else drums lead piano and bass, the acoustic guitar and vocal…
Hello Hello The original of this song was recorded in 1981 Using my Permanent Adolescent technique of drums first. No click, no follow along to other instruments. Just the drums and the musical arrangement in my head. I joined a band in 1984…
And this is just YEAH... I've been checking out Sam Mann and Thee Apes on youtube... wow, you was rocking the ACTUAL strip... we was rocking The Quay in Exeter, Devon, UK
I believe the year was 1981. My friend Tim Brown and I recorded a bunch of music. Since I played all of the instruments(except the lead guitar parts:which Tim played) and sang all of the parts on this song: I believe I still have some recall…
This is a love song for Idaho. Funny thing is I've never even been to Idaho, but I dreamed the chorus and the happy little riff some years ago, and it's stuck with me ever since. So, I filled it in with some verses and an outro that capture the…
Another in an endless string of recordings that would have been saved by a competent singer. Maybe. I like the individual pieces of this song, but I don't think I like the song as a whole. Okay... maybe I don't like the chorus at all. I don…
So for the second in the Fusion Soundscape project, I envisaged a few characters meeting up in one of the lonely passageways in the Underground near midnight, and having a bit of a soulful jam....! Hopefully have captured a little of the bleakness…
Here's another new one

Bingsolex - lead guitar
KC - guitars, vocals, keys & mix

I don't take no for an answer
I want to know what is true

Mighty cool - and very clever - song. We've all met one when we didn't need or want to... and... er... I strongly suspect I've done it to others myself!!
A new one
Hope you like it....

When the goals you set are out of sight
Your bank account on an all time low
When you ain't got a place to go
Time to get stoned…
Love it. I grew up with "stoned" meaning drunk... Little Ole Winedrinker Me kind of stoned... I sometimes still hear it like that... this was one those occasions... I'd definitely be reaching for the bottles and cocktail shaker in these scenarios!
I kinda like this one. The melody in the hook is kinda fun, and having the guitar play a melody of its own was something fun that I don't do often. The lyrics are stream of conscious garbage, meaning they are probably about the idiot in the…
OK, so after the Lockdown Orchestrations project, I have moved to a new series of pieces I am calling Fusion Soundscapes. What I am trying to do here is paint a picture using some sound effects, and with a mix of orchestral and electric/rock…

Oh yeah, cool song. Love the message.
HOLY SMOKES. It's almost unbelievable what Ken's managed to do to the original track. Loved the original too, but wowsers
And this is just YEAH... I've been checking out Sam Mann and Thee Apes on youtube... wow, you was rocking the ACTUAL strip... we was rocking The Quay in Exeter, Devon, UK
Love it.
Ha! Intrigued again :)
Yep cool sounds. Your stuff always leaves me intrigued.
Oh yes, nice one. Love that second verse "She’s in the mountains, She’s in the streams, She got singing birds, She got dreams..." ... yeah.
Yeah, the more I listen to this one, the more I think you're being hard on it/yourself... and the guitars are fabulous.
Digging these soundscapes. This one can't be London, though, it sounds far too clean and healthy for the Underground I know!! :)
Oh yeah, cool track. Getting a very Dire Straitsy vibe - which is very fine by me!
Very cool sounds
Oh yeah, like it.
Some very very cool guitars though!

Yep, I like this one too. Gorgeous guitars, cool bvox, and the groove just works on this one.
Yeah! Like it.
Yep, getting into your sounds.
This too. Thank you for creating and posting them.
Moving and thought provoking.
