@TheProods Even though I sometimes like experimenting with different sounds, I inevitably come back to the stripped down sound. Thanks for encouragement!

More good music, gotta let the voice fly without the effects sometime...great pipes!

Good effort! This isn't an easy song, but the tone of it sounds just right.

Thanks for unearthing and commenting on this older song, Steve! I don't think anyone had listened to it until you so it's nice that it finally got an audience.

This was a fun one to sing. I'm glad you liked it, Steve!

Thanks, Anna! As you might guess, I'm also a big fan of the minimalism of solo acoustic music. That kind of music is what inspired me to pick up a guitar in the first place.

nice song

I like it, I always enjoy the acoustic songs, coz they're so natural

Like this version. Catchy song!

Nice cover Tom : )

Nice song. You've managed to do your own backing vocals too. Good job!

From Pulp Fiction too? Powerful song, comes across well Tom. Well done!

Thanks, Steve! It's a song I covered from the "Pulp Fiction" soundtrack and I thought its vibe worked well for the new mic/guitar setup I'm trying out.

I don't know the song, but nicely performed Tom.

High praise comparing this song to John Lennon - he's a huge influence on me and so I'm quite honored...and I think this song turned out pretty well under the circumstances (I sang it following the US election). Glad you enjoyed it and, as always, thanks for stopping by to listen!

Reminds me of John Lennon. I don't know the song, but very nice.

Thanks, Dok! While I didn't write this song, I appreciate the sentiments of this song too. It works on (at least) two levels: one level is the obvious Ram Dass reference while the other is about loving another. Btw, I'm looking forward to hearing more of your stuff!

Very well expressed sentiments Tom. I like it.

Thanks, Dok! I know my style isn’t for everyone, so I do appreciate that some of what I post here resonates with you and that you keep coming back to listen.

Another winner! Like your style.

@isband Seems this one might be my first recording to get the Voldemort treatment

They say "you are what you eat." I find this to be true because as soon as I bought some ready-to-eat apricots, I was ready to eat apricots. My favourite thing about these ready-to-eat apricots is that they were in a resealable bag, because sometimes you aren't ready-to-eat apricots enough. Maybe next time you'll buy some ready-to-eat apricots.

Thank y0u for the kind words and for the listen, @tonycee and @isband!

Thank you for the kind words @tonycee!

Took me a "long long time" to discover this song, but I'm so glad I was finally able to thanks to the amazing third episode of "The Last of Us." Thank you for the kind words, Colleen!

I'm so happy to learn that you plan to take a look at the originals, c}{imps! I'm just here trying to honor my favorite songs and it's a true compliment if I can do well enough to make someone want to hear the "real" version. (-:

I like all four of your songs! The layered vocals on this one are particularly cool. :)

A nice "pick me up" in these uncertain times! The bongos and other percussive sounds are nicely juxtaposed with the simulated jet sounds. Cool stuff!

Thanks for the encouraging words, Tess! Authenticity is definitely what I'm going for with these songs.

@SisterSavage: As always, thank you for listening and thank you for your kind words, Tess!

Inspiring!

I had a lot of fun listening to this one. The subtle use of sitar and the chugging rhythm guitar are two cool things (of many) that jump out at me. Nice work, Steve! :)

Thanks, Steve! It was fun trying to make the two guitars work and I'm glad the enjoyment extended beyond just me.

@theproods I'm very glad to hear that you're out there supporting some of the artists who inspired me so much!

Love this one; it’s great seeing you back on alonetone! :)

Glad you enjoyed it, Steve! I had some fun with this one. ;)

...you pretty much just described my life @fudetusk

Thanks @fudgetusk! By the way, that gum you like is going to come back in style.

@fudgetusk: Thanks for the kind words!

@fudgetusk Thanks for the kind feedback; I've really enjoyed my ten years here and I'm hoping for at least ten more!
