LYRICS:
With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…
Well this is a very happy song.....you must be getting some hot happy action!!!!!...now I am happy too...seriously...another outstanding tune...hope you have a great Christmas and get some more happy!!!
Got dat ole Memphis honky tonk smell to it, yessiree Bob. Nice mix, and the tune, well, you just gotta smile. Love the stand-up bass sound. If that's midi it's real good.
The first of an album of collaborations with Freight Drive Reprobates. I'm interested to see what we come up with next. Enjoy!
Music: FDR
Lyrics/vocals: LJ
Space marquees
They made a marquee on the Moon
They filled it up with candle…
Found this old track while backing up my hard drive. It is an alternate tracked played at a slower tempo. I added a quick drum track and ruff remix this morning.
I haven't mixed the song yet - it's really raw. Hopefully, I'll have it done by next month.
Lyrics/Music by Nick Plagakis
Am I a fool to love you
Am I a fool to trust you
You took my heart
And broke it apart
Now you come back
Looking…
Well it's funky Friday down here in the cellar and James has forced me to get it on…well he hasn't exactly forced me i was willing so here it is for Funky Friday………...
Part of a collaborative effort done here. My friend sent me these guitar parts which I arranged, twisted and morphed to create this. I added the percussion and other non musical elements thanks to my kids playing while I was experimenting with…
Rich textured sound. For some reason the second piece (or the end of the first piece) really jump started my visual imagination.
Nice guitar with effects, and interesting accompaniment.
Been meaning to enhance this one for years, it's about 4 years old, sure it came about after a trip to Liverpool. The Cavern Club's not the real one, but what a great sound in there. Thanks to the Good Wife for the vocals.
Ok, this came out while messing around with the original, which one I like best, I can't make my mind up. As always sure you guys will put me right !!!!
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…
Recorded on a handheld Tascam recorder, with (unfortunately) a little too much guitar, and not enough vocals.
Sorry Rick, I'll do better next time,
Greg

Nice & Easy

Driving it home . . . That's pretty good James!
I just bought the Ben Harper / Charlie Musslewhite album. This song would fit right into that mix.
Nice blend. I like the keyboard too.
Makes me want to pull that leisure suit out of the closet. Time to party. . . . .
