Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too
Singing In The Silence
Verse 1:

I added some additional lyrics to complete the last verse and we played this around Greg's coffee table last night.
Greg Connor, Mark Lofgren, and Mike Rudquist on guitars and vocals with me....
Hope you enjoy this version as much as the first!

This song is the concluding song on my RPM Challenge February album. It is a good-bye to the project.

Not a good-bye to Alonetone
or anything else.
SEE YA
It has been a lot of fun
Listening to…
KAWEAH (says the crow)
"Kaweah, Kaweah"
There's a place on up the hill
Redwood trees are standing still
The murmur of the river will invite you
Lay your head down on a rock
You'll forget about the clock
The whisper of the sun will…

Muriel Jeanne Skinner promised that if it were possible she would come back from the dead to
tell me about the afterlife. She has not returned..

A bird flew in and landed in my living room

An acoustic short song I just made up, I kept it very basic by only using my little Höhner guitar with nylon strings of which I recorded two layers. I hope you will enjoy my song ! Warm regards from Anna.
A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

This is an IDEA or blueprint for the solo of a song I wrote called the same 12 steps. It's just a snippet and it's unmixed but it's just so pretty to me. This was one take on each track (backing/lead) but I think alot of the reason it turned…
one of my fav moody's songs.
it would have turned out far better if i had a melotron. (i wish!) this is an ecological song.

Did you ever lose your britches
Did you ever lose a shoe

Your best friend gave to you
Did you ever lose that girl you held so tenderly
Well, let me tell you buddy. You're a lot like me
Did you ever…
Wow Greg! I saw this come in just as I was turning off my computer for the weekend... It's really beautiful. I love the pipes in the background and the beautiful picking. You should be sitting in the corner of a hushed pub in Galway playing this tune. Wonderful Irish Poem!!
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.
