Searching for something
I wonder and roam
Hoping the truth
Soon will be shown…

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:

I had fun singing this at the open mic this past week.
Originally written for a song writing challenge using the phrase *"Chicken Plucking Time In Petaluma"*
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen to one of my sloppily recorded ideas! I have had the worst time with basic song construction and even coming up with more than one verse or chorus and then completely loosing my drive. I'm not under the impression that my riffs or ideas for songs suck or anything but I fell cumbersome because I have no endgame and without a point , what's the point right?? ;) anyway, that leads me to my reason for swinging by at the moment, thank you tremendously for the kind words on "4 the kisses...." I waswondering if you would consider putting a vocal track to it please? I understand fully if you can't or simply don't want to, but if you do..... !!!!!!! I would be eternally greatful and for the rest of my stay at alonetone.com I would consider naming my 1st born Greg
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…
.
Full moon, full of mystery
Full moon, shadows thru the trees
I can feel your spell, I’m beggin at you please
So long I been straight and true
No wrong has come into view
I can feel that dark side, all because of you
Way down…
Pleasure boats and fishermen
Tugboat pushin three barges wide
Sit on the banks from morn till evening
Wave to the people as they pass me by
Up in Minnesota she’s fast and cold
Walleye fishing just below the dam
Go and catch em til…
TRUE STORY
Here comes Ernest he say how you want your eggs
Don’t matter what you say to me, don’t care how much you beg
This here is my damn place and you are just a passing through
You’re lucky just to be alive cause I don’t care about…

LOSER
Did you ever lose your britches
Did you ever lose a shoe
Did you ever lose that sweater
Your best friend gave to you
Did you ever lose that girl you held so tenderly
Well, let me tell you buddy. You're a lot like me
Did you ever…
With Big Time Operator, who originally uploaded his awesome music with the offer that anyone can add vocals...too good to miss! Love this music, and had loads of fun wailing. Thanks Chris!
Played on BBC Radio Introducing. :)

In one hour or less - with mallets.
I guess I'm just the guy to do the mechanical, electronic, energized, futuristic version :)
The end is the best part.
for Gene's contest...great title and inspiration!!
“How To Assemble Your Android”
Yesterday a box of parts came to my front door
I thought she came assembled, ready to be my whore
Tore the box apart and to no one’s surprise I was missing…

You are *tooooooooooooooo* Much!

What has Gene Started???????????
HOW
I've got a friend. He is in trouble
But he just stands there in the rubble
It seems each day his sorrows double
He needs to know. He needs to know
How do you keep your hand from shaking
How do you keep your fear from waking
How…
Something about it, maybe the chord changes. Whatever it is, it got my juices flowing.
I can hear (in my mind) a Stratocaster echoing the lyric *"Nothing Else Matters"*
A song with a long story (born in 1995, go figure!). Perceivable influences: Doors, Notting Hillbillies, Animals... Such long making combines, I think, my serious melancholy of those old days + a few thousands of hours of practice and 'stay cool…
THERE, I SAID IT
The more you got, the more you got to lose
From the top of your head down to the bottom of your shoes
The things you love. The things you abuse
It's enough to give a white boy the blues
I said it. There, I said it
It might…
Track 2 for the RPM 2015 album Cold Ground Was My Bed

Golden Days

Golden days, golden days are ahead of me
Goin' where the wind don't blow so cold
Endless Summer, soothe my soul
Where the streets are lined with gold
Golden days, golden days are ahead of me
HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…
I just notice the comment made by *Big Time Operator*
*"Harmonica makes everything better"*
How true! That combined with Steve's Slide . . . it's like nirvana.

One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.

A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.

Great song!
im sitting in a dark room with good speakers falling into this very cool evocative piece,, nice
The percussion section is exceptionally groovy. Great job on the harmonica. Well, really, all of it is great.
Just listened to this one again.... Wonderful song!!!
@Steve, I had to go back and look up my version of the story. You and I are consistent. Ernest was one of a kind.
Singing's good, Greg!
Came by to hear if I still liked this one. Apparently I still do. Gorgeous.
sooooo well done,, your play is beautiful,, is that a penny whistle or some sort of flute,, it's quite breathy as a whistle,, and beautiful indeed
Wicked !!!!!
Wonderful slideworks !!!!! nice song well performed !

I THINK WE'VE MET BEFORE . . . SOMEWHERE DOWN IN ASHVILLE. GOOD SONG AND GOOD TO RUN ACROSS YOU AGAIN.
T H I S I S G O O D
Oh yes, that's the stuff!
Lots of fun with big finale!
Robert . . . Robert . . . . is this fun or what? The Banjo really brought it over the top!
What goes on in that mind of yours? Suspicious from now on and laughing out loud.
Beautiful Andrew!

Well done James. Great message. I'm pressing *"REPLAY"* . . . again

Oh . . . this is good.
Ah the stark reality of life. The lyric about "where to get a drink" really got my attention.
Interesting percussive sound.
Nice Creative Approach. RPM will bring that out in a person. Very refreshing!
I just notice the comment made by *Big Time Operator* *"Harmonica makes everything better"* How true! That combined with Steve's Slide . . . it's like nirvana.
I stopped by for another listen. Nice work guys!
C L A S S I C G E N E
Ah . . . The good old days. I think I remember when this song was new!
This one got me smiling. Nice happy song!
