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.

@TheProods: As always, thank you for stopping by to listen and to give encouragement; I really appreciate it!

I kinda figured the "Empire Builder" comment was yours, Dok, but didn't want to assume anything! And thank you for the warm words for "Lemon Grove Ave." Cool to have folks like you listening and appreciating what I'm playing!

Mellow and cool avenue. Enjoying the groove. Thanks Tom. (Sorry, the guest was me when I forgot to sign in. Doh!)

More great choices.

@Guest: Thanks for the kind words! I always try to go with songs that I can imagine a live audience listening to, so it's cool this song was received that way.

Very nice Tom. Another thoughtful song. I'd enjoy being in the audience to see you perform. You create a mood, an atmosphere, with just an acoustic guitar and your voice. Well done!

Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!

Like it Tom. Easy to listen to and appreciate

Nice take....I like this better than the original...

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.

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!

Thanks, Steve! Atmosphere and emotion are definitely what I'm going for here!

I enjoyed what you did here, Steve! I can imagine this being the soundtrack to a remixed Road Runner cartoon.

My aunt gifted me a 12 string guitar for Christmas and so I had fun trying it out for this song; I'm glad it turned out okay. As always, thanks for listening and for the encouraging words, Steve!

Cool upbeat vibe on this one, Steve! Fun stuff!
