2-3-14 Improv with new acoustic & new delay/looper. By the end of the month I'll probably have two or three albums worth of outtakes of this kinda stuff. Haven't even scratched the surface…

To me this track sounds like getting lost in a funhouse of mirrors while a jungle drum duet spurs one ever deeper into the heart of the crazy maze. Eventually, just as the urge to give into the encroaching insanity can no…

Caveat emptor: I did absolutely none of the drumming in this piece.
WORLD PREMIER! FIRST RECORDING OF THIS PATTERN - EVER!
My friend Kokou "Alex" Yemey called me a few days ago with some urgency in his voice: "I must record this before…
Like A Wave
--
If you make yourself a mule
someone's gonna ride you
this I know
Like a breeze moves through the air
or a wave upon the water
is how I go
When you can freely give
of all that you can hold
you can know no more…
When my 'whole morning for recording' turned into 30 minutes, I did this. Beep beep;
Driving all over the fucking road.
Left right left right doesn't really matter.
In n out of lanes in my mitsubishi colt
Left right left right doesnt really…
Something for RPM. This piece of filler features a transaction between myself and my 2 year old daughter at her pretend shop. I was the 'custer', she was the 'shoppy keeper', and I was encouraged to ask her 'howzamuchit?'
Alex, are you familiar with the Dreamies album? This piece of yours seems as if it could have been inspired by that album... (Either way, kudos! This is favorite among favorites!) Your entire album this year is excellent!! Love the lo-fi inspiration!
everyone says I cant sing. I can its just im not very good.
its not about whether I can so much as whether I should.
but I do! yeah I will.. strangle that cat anyhoo
people say I cant, I can.. im just not very good.
everyone says I cant…
If you leave me behind I'll have a crow's nest of a life
Filled with things that sparkle and flash,
Rusty nails and old tin cans
Sure, they're pretty when they get wet
But it ain't the most comfortable bed
Unless you're here
I've been…
A trip back to the 80's, living out our Duran Duran dreams.
Tim played the roles of Simon, Nik, and Andy.
Grant was Roger.
Matt Parker was John.
Tess and Meg were Pepsi and Shirlie.
And Gary Fox played the role of Andy Hamilton.
Been listening to your new album while doing some school work. Looping back through now... Enjoyed this one especially. Thanks for posting your stuff here on Alonetone! :-)
Love how after all of the "I believe"s from the previous track, this one starts with JFK saying "I believe..." Love stuff like that. You know I am a big fan of this one!
Destination
Lyrics
My ship and I don't like to wait
I'm on my way
My ship and I don't celebrate
the victory of the day
My ship and I don't like to wait
I'm on my way
My destination takes me oh, so far away
My new position brings…
Traveler
Lyrics
I love the way she
waves toward the sky
she's living day to day
her love is years away
all my days in the sky
all her nights have fires burning
my day is just beginning
past Jupiter and Mars
I left for her life…
Excellent title track! Great concept, great album!! I am supposed to be working right now, but here I am listening through this for a second time. This track is a perfect setting for some classic WG harp blowin'. Good on ya man!
Earth Days
Lyrics
Lonely days
Solitude
If only I knew
Rocket ships
Data banks
It all seemed so cool
I miss the Earth and bright Summer days
I miss the trees and cool Autumn breeze
I look outside
only stars go by
Cryin' eyes…

I love it. from Selena
This made my brain implode. Noodles! Of course, it will be stuck in my head for days.
I'd say the description fits the song to a T!
Deelightful!
This one is cool.
Classic Cave Street. If there is such a thing.
I once went through a funhouse. The ride jock jumped out of the dark and startled me. I punched him in the chin. Total idiot's delight.
Shiny sounds.
Campfire song indeed! I want to do a washboard layer :)
Sweet!
Comments made by Cave Street
Brilliant!
Good to hear you in action, bro. If I had to choose just one out of the new batch, I think this one's my favorite...
Much love, brother!
Thanks, friends! Taking it one day at a time 'round here. Grateful for the feedback.
Great vibe! Some truly original & psychedelic music came into existence in 67 & 68... love this tribute! Great production! :-)
I can dig it! Nice work you guys...
Dave, you and WildGeas need to jam, this is right up his alley! Where you at Paul?
What an excellent album! My wife & have enjoyed listening to it all. Thanks for sharing it!
It matters! Love your entire album, Alex! Thank you!

I say you CAN! And I'm glad you do! This is brilliant!
This one is an easy favorite among an album of really strong tracks! I'm also loving the dynamics/flow of the album... well played!
I like hearing the sound of the room on this recording. Nice start, I'm settling in for the whole record...
Another crowd pleasing slab of Dad Rock right here. Fun track!
I can see (hear) why this is the title track! This is an instant classic. Impressive!
