This is what is known as a "hostile takeover".
MCOBigBen wrote the song and gave Tim the multitracks.
Tim chopped and edited away, adding guitars, backing vocals, and various production.
Grant added drums.
Ben still hasn't heard it at this point....
Vultures
Are there vultures encircling you, again?
My friend they're coming for us all, in the end.
No half truth mother's lies or litany's
the mangle, tortured, atrophied
the beautiful strangeness of alone.
Are the vultures encircling…
Thank you all for your kind comments! We promise to spend more time listening to you folks here on alonetone after the album "last days, last days is finished. Looking forward to some great music!
Warning: Synthesized Acoustic Instruments
(ca 1998) A sort of sappy ragtime ballad thing. Composed on a Roland JV-30 using Cakewalk. This version was rendered with TiMidity++ & freepats from a recovered MIDI file. I don't know what happened…
A mash/add-on for the Sound-In event this week. Took Glenn Smith's bass piece ("Enter the Ice") from last week, added Shane Cadman's chimes then played some "frozen" guitar over that.
Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !
Texas hold em poker, and going for it all. Open mic acoustic with some alt tuning. Percussion by Norm.
The kokiriko? Norms playing in there actually sounds like shuffling cards- particularly loving the glockenspiel addition he did…
Well i got the £16 special out and Bon came down the cellar for a visit last night it was a shame Angus didn't as the lead is a bit limp but hey!! were trying down here.......now with some finger drums.......

Waiting for something that would be: familiar feeling, isn't it? We look forward to when she comes back, look forward to when the morning comes; waiting to stop the rain (or when will finally rain...).
Life itself is a... waiting?

Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.

A song for a man that has played to thousands who passed him in church street whilst he busked with all his heart.
