Snow on the ground. Wind and temperatures below zero. It's time for another coffee table evening.
Recorded live around my coffee table with:
Mark Lofgren - Lead Guitar & Harmony

Greg Connor…
No, I never wrote the song, but always thought I would begin the song with the sound of my 12 guage shotgun as I open the action.
Gunshots and clapping are very hard to record. But there are plenty of places to go grab a sample.

You commented on my song I KEEP MY RADIO ON. You also added, "I once had someone call me selling a security system. I told them “I don’t need it.” They will only come in here once." Did you write that song?

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.
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Wonderful. If you've lost your way, this song will bring on a soothing calm.
Yah ,Iam looking for a home sweet home Arkansas I think I found it right here at the coffee table with You'll
Greg this one is going to be one of my all time favorites!!!! That chorus is just killer! Thanks for sharing the coffee table with us.
Love it....release it!!!!
Nice One ! :) c
great tune!

You commented on my song I KEEP MY RADIO ON. You also added, "I once had someone call me selling a security system. I told them “I don’t need it.” They will only come in here once." Did you write that song?
Randy, well I guess so:
must be something in the coffee to fuel such a fine song.
Really nice mate
Just beautiful. Well done.
Very Pretty. You all are really becoming pros. :) c
Another coffee table masterpiece!!...you guys rock....great feel to this one
Such a pretty and relaxing song.thanks for sharing it Greg! Makes it a little warmer:)
Another wonderful song!
Fun tune!
OMG!!!! This is hilarious!!!!! Love it. I am guessing this is a story you've concocted over some of the "good wine".
Love it! Such a heartfelt song. I really like the lyrics. I can picture you sitting at station :)
A jaunty song with some fine harp playin'!
Comments made by Greg Connor
Nice blend. I like the keyboard too.
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!
