Steve (SLKrell) and I have been competing over the same *"IMAGINARY"* girlfriend for years now.
And Yep . . . Steve started it. Well she's mine now, at least until Steve writes the next song. Look for Steve's music here:

This song paints such a big picture. Great lyrics and unique and resonant theme. Really love this! Love the instrumentation too! There's a part where the mandolin and accordion/concertina(I think?) come together on a single note that really punctuates the song! Fantastic!

"Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight at me" -- definitely my favorite lines in this number! Such a beautiful song, so gorgeous, and the lyrics are so powerful!

Hoping the truth

Back around the turn of the century a group of miscreants would converge in a basement on Tuesday evenings to imbibe spirits and play music. Here's a recording of a public-domain song from one of those evenings (written by Kansas Joe McCoy &…

Shattered like ice on the ground

I was so excited when SlKrell wrote to ask if I would do the vocals on this excellent song he wrote! I loved his lyrics and the rocking backing guitars. Hope you enjoy it too!
Nice song and GREAT contribution to the "Who Knew" Challenge. I enjoyed playing behind you on this.

Friends...an offering from the not-real album "Dr. Pepsi's Death Cult Glee Club". The song was inspired by t.v. commercials featuring actor William Devane, who has spent the last few years trying to convince Americans to buy gold.

This was part of the 'who knew' song challenge, recorded live at Colleen Dillon's on 12-09-15, with Greg Connor on guitar. Love his part, didn't edit out anything, even left the comments on the beginning and end.

Great Song! You have a lot going on here!
I love the lonely feel of this and how it evolves throughout the song.
Outstanding Lyrics: *"And I run a/c

I like the bass line. Nice contribution to the *"Who Knew"* Challenge.

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…
I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
Recorded live at my friend Colleen's studio in the clouds with Scott on the mandolin, Greg on guitar, Collin on bass, Colleen on ukulele. Thanks for a fun challenge!
This is a rough cut, but I like it. Here are the lyrics:
TOMORROW WILL BE YOU
It’s been a long time since I saw you
I’m at a loss for words
But when I heard the news
I went straight to your room
There’s no point in looking…

You need to send this demo to Nashville...one of your best country tunes.....great melody line ...outstanding playing and singing...
Hardcore Connor!

Still Good!
*Another Masterpiece Andrew!* Very unique and interesting.
Lots of energy! I love it!
I have the feeling there is a lot of the story not told, on purpose. That vagueness is very effective here. My imagination is running wild.
Whoooo Hooooo! This is darn good!
Beautiful! As I was playing this my wife took an interest too! She loves the piano.
Big full sound.
