Haha! Pwnd by the phone company once again. I feel your pain. The chain saw solution caught me by surprise, but sounded effective.
It would probably be a very bad idea for you to ever collaborate with ReefWalker about this topic... he has a history of many phone problems as well.

Somebody should create an album of songs dealing with phone problems on AT - a recurring theme!
This is a rough mix of a track I did with the one & only Norm Harris. I've got some vocals in mind, but it may take some time to put it together, so meanwhile here's the instrumental version. Big thanks & major props to Norm…
In the morning, when we awoke, there was nothing. There were no ashes from the fires of the previous evening. The time for decisions was past. "Yes" was the answer to all questions; and none was the knowledge retained. Wisdom laughs at such folly…
you say i got no reason
to be here knockin' on your door
i guess ya had no reason
to think you might see me anymore
hey I got some news for you
yes i do
y'know i seen a lot
of different things
through these two eyes
i've heard…

Yes, RW's sitar works very well here. Nice! I confess that I don't know what a tenpura is, but then I thought a hurdy-gurdy had something to do with a busking monkey... now I realize its a wheel fiddle, which I've never come close to seeing or hearing.
I still want one of those things with the monkey hitting folks up for change in his little cup, whatever it's called.

yes! this is great - the two of you rock together - and Hurdy Gurdy!! Awesome!! If I may be so bold perhaps a recorder or flute - or best a shawm melody would work.

I'm at work & listening to this now... still not quite satisfied with the intonation of the hurdy-gurdy (I had to pitch shift the sample I found). Reefwalker has done an excellent remix which I will probably upload this evening provided he gives his permission.

This is the third, maybe forth time I recorded this tune.
I like this one best.

always moving closer
my eyes could see
then they called in the calvary

so everyone can fit in her yard

fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout

This one rewards repeated listening... (I especially love the instrumental break before the last verse). I'd like to put this tune on our community radio station, if you don't mind. (WUTZ radio, 88.3 in Summertown, TN) ~ Let me know if that's okay.

A quickly improvised tune with some stream-of-consciousness lyrics. Written/recorded hastily in the dead of night on Tuesday 11/27 with a short overdub session on Thursday 11/29, when I should have been sleeping.
All basic tracks…
Hey, thanks Reg. I'll try to keep it open... I recently moved all my music/recording gear from my cramped bedroom to my son's old room now that he's at university. This was the first 1/2 way decent thing I recorded since I set up in here. I'm gonna try to keep things rolling so I'll be warmed up for RPM 2013! :-) Peace.
Hi folks - Uncle Paul is back at it after a 4 month hiatus from music.
Sometimes I just have to walk away from it. I'm sure most of you know what I'm talking about.
I forced myself through the 2012 RPM Challenge
and quit playing right after…
Excellent, PAL! Now get back in there & send me that tempo track for Blue! :-)
Much love,
~Tennessee Tea
PS - I really like when the drums drop out about 2:30 in....
I like your recent live take on this you posted, I'd really like to see this lyrics posted for this.... This is a great track!
*great harmonica too!*
Peace, Michael
A rough and ready audience recording of my set at open mic night at Queens Park Centre, Aylesbury.
Setlist:
Stand Up But Not To Fall
Revolution
All Was Nothing
Colin, I just tried to post a track by track commentary on this, and it just disappeared. Rather than trying to recreate it, let me just say thanks for posting this live performance. Well done indeed, sir! I hope to hear more of this kind of thing...

Hey Colin! Good on ya! While the sound quality isn't exactly stellar, it's quite good enough to hear the intensity & emotion of the performances. I'm glad you posted this!
Stand: Wow, an oldie to start.. it really starts to hit me about a minute in -- nice performance!
Revolution: Love the intro - excellent performance, a timely resurrection...
All was nothing: Another great composition; I can see why you're still playing it 10 years on, though I hope the hurt has healed!
I love the chord changes & would appreciate being able to read the lyrics for all these tracks!
Thanks again for putting this up, I'd like to hear more live tracks from you & the others on this site.
Cheers,
Michael
A rather flat version of an original instumental jam played live as a four piece in the studio.we played reserved compared to normal renditions. others wanted this on the album, i voted no. we made our 35 minutes. thank god!
We've all met them! Haha. Got a bit of a rocky head on doing this.

With summer in full swing, and festivities nearby, I often think about how others across the globe celebrate their summers.
I hadn't been able to post much lately because I managed a composer contract for a game, and have been helping a local…
this was one of our first takes of the month. still in search of a mix at this point in the month. my personal low point because i forgot my lyric notes and really cut my words short and didnt sing or deliver well. i highly believe in moving on…

That's something different for you. Very cool track man!
Like it.
A little strange guys... strangely compelling. ;)
love the drone
Nice percussion!
reminds me of "nothing" off Bill Laswells city of light.... which is a good thing
Cool! Great guitar tones!
BEAUTIFUL TRACK
It certainly was fortunate for a lot of us the day Norm joined us. Now we are all unashamedly using him! This is a great track.
*laughing so hard it's hard to type @norm's comment*....That is one crazy picture you got on your profile bud. Is that your dog?
Yes, RW's sitar works very well here. Nice! I confess that I don't know what a tenpura is, but then I thought a hurdy-gurdy had something to do with a busking monkey... now I realize its a wheel fiddle, which I've never come close to seeing or hearing.

nice very nice deep forest mellow inside the cave there..
Real nice folksy tune. It has a bit of CSNY in it. I'm waitin' on the vox man. Saved, Fav'ed and turned to wav.
some Robert Plant-Zepplin IV style vox would be Killer!
yes! this is great - the two of you rock together - and Hurdy Gurdy!! Awesome!! If I may be so bold perhaps a recorder or flute - or best a shawm melody would work.

Sounding good over here! No, really great!
Even better now!
Had to listen again - love the fresh folky feel! Can't wait to hear your sublime vox in this potion!

I like this a lot! Very spacey & meditative & then that last minute gets intense... Dig the vibra-slap!
Well, *I* like it! :-)
This rocks!! Reminds of Bevis Frond without all the psychedelic noodling. Well done
Nice tune, bad situation. Good luck stopping this...
Great work, guys! We need more tracks like this
this is a cool track
Welcome to alonetone! I like the changes in this song...
nice one!
parts of this remind me of something from Michael Hedges' taproot album.... nice track!
double yes
