Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Just like two sides
Of the same silver dollar
We’re not alike but still the same
And your big life
Makes mine look smaller
I wonder if you know my name
I wait around
You might be calling
A telephone that never rings
End of the day…
Boy I really like these lyrics. Makes me wonder who was in your mind's eye as you wrote this. Sausage customer, or music producer, or maybe someone else entirely. I am always so amazed at your songs! Love this!
Two hours before morning light
Highway signs go by all night
Open window to catch the breeze
Helps me clear my cluttered mind
Road noise rumbling through the floor
Been on this road once or twice before
My mind is racing up ahead
Leaving…

Really like the chord progression....and of course vocals are outstanding...great lyrics...this song really speaks to me...oh and as a side note...your "Taking Home The Pretty One" will be on Dirty Thumps CD that should be released very soon...your name is on the sleeve as writer...It has been copyrighted in Poland and I assume the rest of the world.. so check your mailbox for royalties:-) as soon as I get some CD's I will send you one....of course it is a little different than the original!!! as the producer/engineer says it is like Hendrix interpreting Dylan....lol

Lyrics:
Mini Van
I’m driving my Mini Van around
I’m driving it everywhere in town
I’m driving my Mini Van
Try to catch me if you can
I’m driving my Mini Van around
Seems Like I can always catch the eye…
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 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.
Lyrics & Music by Nick Plagakis
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
Here's a collab with Reg & Freight Drive Reprobates who's crazy good backer steals the show.....
The Latex Man (Lyrics)
In the dark of night
everything can sometimes look bizarre
somebody somewhere is in trouble
somebody is having thoughts…
Thought I'd have a go at a soul number. FDR did some lead but the song was left all alone on my comp until today when I landed on it's lyrics while driving home. Thought I'd have a plumb at auditioning for the 3rd Reg, lol.
Ooooh, that's good.
Sounds like you might be having second thoughts about that "Sugar Daddy" thing. Sometimes those ladies have a way of changing your mind.
My mate Dave did his Ringo bit for this one. He came with some songs title's. I was messing about in Open A (I think ) and came up with this. Thanks to Dave for the Harmonica.
This was done in the aftermath of an evening out with Lady Jane,The two Regs and Jip 1965 which left me in a state i may never recover from and come to think of it may never remember haha
Anyway thanks for a great evening in and out and......until…
Wrote this after hearing on the radio of a bloke who ran off to France with his underage girlfriend and guess what? he's doing time (asshole) Thanks to Lady Jane for backing vocals

Oh yes . . . I like that. It's really fun to see what comes from a collaborated effort. You end up with something with a whole new flavor.
Let's hear a little more of that.

Makes me want to pull that leisure suit out of the closet. Time to party. . . . .
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.
You sound like you're having fun.
Better keep both versions. This one just bubbles along.
This one makes you think.
Very Pretty Song. I like this one Terry/
That's some fancy banjo picking. Good toe tapper!
I love that jews harp
This was Fun! I was taken by the song the moment I heard it. Great Songwriting Nick. Lots of feeling here.
Great Story Telling!
That's pretty.
Now that's the way to belt it out! So tell me . . . is it true . . . FDR sips on a beer while he's playing those licks? Nice combined effort guys.
Ooooh, that's good. Sounds like you might be having second thoughts about that "Sugar Daddy" thing. Sometimes those ladies have a way of changing your mind.
Nice tuning on the guitar. I like that harmonica too. You are sounding good Roger. This is a catchy one.
Sounds like you are keeping good company these days. It's another foot tapper!
Garlic Sound? Your friends sound a lot like my so called friends. I think you and Lady hit on something good. Very refreshing.
Oh yes . . . I like that. It's really fun to see what comes from a collaborated effort. You end up with something with a whole new flavor. Let's hear a little more of that.
Nice easy song. I never would have guessed that you did the whole "writing / recoding" in such a short time.
I love it!
OH YES That was beautiful.
