Really enjoyed it. I loved the modal/almost Celtic yet interpersed with jazzy chords. And the word themselves were beatiful. Using horns in the middle section was great, too. The personal story behind this song must be a moving one.
This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)

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!
Faved instantly. Y'all are the most original, unfettered, and uninhibited artists I know. Truly brilliant track.
Seriously floored by this one. I need to do exactly as Gary says.
I deleted this a while ago I think. Just found it on a CD and decided to put it back up for your listening pleasure. It demonstrates the proper usage of a washboard!
Not recorded for RPM, but for the expected release of this album. Bones was a chinchilla R.T. got for Xmas '07 that died just after new year's. This is for her. She was the sweetest.
Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
I'm a complete idiot when it comes to all things midi related. Recently got myself a midi keyboard though and came up with this short piece just messing with sounds in Proteus. Really looking forward to the possibilities of combining this sort…

Doug - how great are you? GREAT! I think I need to spend more time on alonetone. I'm missing too much GREAT music. New Year resolution - I will take time to listen.

Our sun is in a long, cool, quiet period right now. But average ocean temps are the highest ever, and polar ice and glaciers are melting at an alarming rate. Something is going on here.
