Wow! This is a really awesome version. I just love the whistle. Brings that mournful feeling right to the front. Gorgeous all around! You have a keeper here.

This song is more fun than substance. Recorded at the end of the evening featuring the glow of an empty bottle of wine.

We're still short a few…
A little different angle than Champion Jack Dupree's take on seafood, but I'll always take blues, beer, and shrimp! Sounded like fun to perform and record.

Nobody knows, nobody knows the pain You suffered
No one can know, can truly know the pain You suffered

I wrote the lyrics and melody to this song a week or so ago when I was feeling that unsettling disconnected feeling we all get from time to time when we're missing the people we love.... Then I gave myself the challenge to try a few things with…
A new song, still just a sketch, recorded live at Winterland studios for my demo. Story about a guy living in Tuscon, AZ, lamenting the irony of the beauty and hardship of living in the desert.
Fellow alone toner Gary Talbott kindly volunteered to add some of his own vocals and strings to this song, so I gladly took him up on it. Fun to keep evolving this one. Thanks Gary!
I was up early this morning before the children so i got me and Les to do and ad-lib song in one take....i wish i had turned the mic down a bit as you can hear me hitting the strings but hey its a kind of percussion...isn't it?
Fellow alone toner Gary Talbott kindly volunteered to add some of his own vocals and strings to this song, so I gladly took him up on it. Fun to keep evolving this one. Thanks Gary!
I finally got a chance to listen to this on some decent speakers.
Nice going guys! It just bounces along with great vocal, harmony, and instrumental accents.

This one's a bit of a ponderous beastie.
It can be whatever you want it to be. For me, it's got a lot to do with Sunday 18th June 1815.

A BIG, BIG thank you to Wildgeas who took my simple acoustic guitar song and turned it into a beautiful work of art. Arrangements and Production done magnificently by Paul Lennon (Wildgeas). Also, special thank you to Bethan who put her sweet…
Greg Connor added his amazing harp to the song. It really adds depth to it. I love Greg's playing on the song. Thanks so much, Greg! This is why Alonetone is great.

I count my blessings…
This a primer melody for this lyric, so feel free to tweak it ( for the collaboration four)<<..lyrics>>>.The transmission started slipping on the way home from work today...Man I sure could stand a little raise in pay. no talking…
Here is a Steve Krell song.
Buck Erpestad and I recorded live using two acoustic guitars.
Here is a link to Steve's original version : http://alonetone.com/slkrell/tracks/saskatchewanshostalconnorkrell
This might be my favorite SLKrell song.
This is an impromptu version that Buck & I played with the tape rolling.

This has a great feel to it! Well done.
*OUTSTANDING* That's the best Ukulele I've ever heard. I like the symbolism of *"droplets at the edge of a river"* This might be my new favorite song!
*"A drop dead blue eyed honey"* I love it. Your lyrics are a lot of fun!
Heavy topic but Pretty to listen to.
Reminds my of Dylan. Your lyrics and phrasing are top notch.
Beautiful Song! I heard about the compilation album. This would make a Great addition to the album.
Oh . . . I like this!
You got the magic! Still *Kicking Ass* this morning.
Well . . . there's the difference. I'm stumbling for the coffee when I get up. You are making music with you Les Paul. I need more of that!
I finally got a chance to listen to this on some decent speakers. Nice going guys! It just bounces along with great vocal, harmony, and instrumental accents.
Another excellent version! Great song, and Gary really spiced it up!
*Another Masterpiece Andrew!* Excellent instrumentation and the Lyrics weave in and out perfectly!
One of my favorites!
I stopped by for another listen. Still good!
Now That is Folk Music!
Good to hear that *"Portsmouth"* sound
Unique . . . That's for sure. I have to say, you had me until the end. Pretty interesting.
You got the magic Johnny!
