Searching for something
I wonder and roam

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…

Once again, Greg Connor has kindly added his wonderful harmonica and Dobro to this song. Thanks so much, Greg! Mean Streak Blues is a song about how wrongly we could deal with frustration....enjoy listening

Oh yes, this is the stuff. Thanks for the invitation to *"season"* your song a little.
It was fun pulling out that old Dobro and bottle neck. This song is just made for it!
Sometimes it's hard to figure out what just happened. And then again it's sometimes hard to figure out something that happened years ago.
(To answer the question by the commenter, that's all me and my little self all alone in the basement…
Hey all, which Greed version do you prefer? :)
Lead guitar, organ, and drums added by Vic Lyn. He did a great job - extremely talented and insightful with music. Thanks so much, Vic. (Check out Vic's website: www.avlstudios.com

My instrumental cover of Christina Aguilera's song "Beautiful" I guess I am ready for the old folks home!!!! ...now that I am doing ballads!!!
I just happen to really like the chord progression and thought I would try an instrumental cover…
This is a request from Gene Eric Mann
one of mine and Andy's older ones...we envisioned this a a soundtrack for a horror movie....Andy thought of the story because his son likes to go into the woods near his house and brng back sticks!!
this is…
Unique, and very interesting.
I like how both Justin and Gene love it. They have an interesting ability to always agree. I have to concede, they're both right on this one!
Another oldie form Andy and I and requested by Gene Eric Mann....this one is about a friend of Andy's that had a drug problem....Andy wrote all the lyrics and plays rhythm guitar...weird guitar parts and all other instruments sre me and me playing…
We've always adored this song, there is another version but decided to re-record it. Now I think the Good Wife sounds quite good, when I think of the crap health problems she endured over the last 4 years. I am bias of course !!!! Lastly apologies…
This song has been sat on the marvellous mechanical mouse organ in the broom-cupboard for well over a year.
A few weeks ago I got a bit of a scare - the mouse organ nearly broke down (in the middle of sorting out Delta Dawn). While I was fixing…
One I wrote about 5 or 6 years ago, very different to the old version. It came about because of the shameful treatment of the soldiers coming back injured from that S**t hole of a country by the British Gov. They were forced into doing much more…
Justin Otter Guy (just another guy) and Gene Eric Mann (generic man) are the same musician. My originals are penned as Gene tunes (alonetone.com/mythopoetica) and my covers are uploaded as Justin tunes (/redshirt).
This is another GHOST OF JOHN MURPHY piece from the VOICES CD...

It started with an earthquake half a mile below
Belching like a bull whip to make the water blow
Monster in the making, Frankenstein unchained
Gravity…
A tune for Halloween.
I wanted to do something creepy. It works.
All Alone
I turn your knob
and throw Spot a bone
I palm your panties
when your not home
I turn the lights off
and cut your phone
I feel your fears

I don’t care for love and happiness
I got myself a yacht and a mansion
I don’t believe in God and religion
I got myself sixty four billion

Greed, greed, greed is what…
You have some great lines here . . . *Got Myself A High Priced Honey"*
Judging from the headlines in the news lately I think I might have a hint where the inspiration for this song came from.
Well done Nick!
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Just poetry
Love the harmonies! Great sentimental feel. Really nice
Great song.... Just found this... Another amazing one. Beautiful lyrics
Hey Greg, nice tune ,well done, love the guitar ,,and harp, Jack & Cindy,
Yessah! Makes me think of Blade Runner for some reason... Excellent recording Greg!
Really enjoy this one Greg, it seems classic! The flow and the lyrics are really sweet and sentimental. Really great!
Breezy and beautiful! Great chemistry.
Love this song!!!
Big smiles here, as I'm partial to the Celtic sound. Lovely playing on all the instruments!

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 !

Very romantic. I like that syncopated rhythm.
Oh yes, this is the stuff. Thanks for the invitation to *"season"* your song a little. It was fun pulling out that old Dobro and bottle neck. This song is just made for it!
You really know how to tickle an emotion. I love it James!
I just listened to them back to back. Both good, but, the acoustic version has my vote. It has that raw feel to it. Both good though.
NOW I'M IN THE MOOD !!!! Let the festivities commence.
You got my feet tapping with this one! Great Mix.
I had to press play for another listen this morning.
Unique, and very interesting. I like how both Justin and Gene love it. They have an interesting ability to always agree. I have to concede, they're both right on this one!
Good one guys!
This is a great groove. Very inviting.
Interesting bits of music! It will be fun to hear the finished result.
I don't know the original either, but I like this. Both of you sound *GREAT!*
Beautiful Andrew!
Interesting subject matter. The reality of war almost makes a person sick thinking about it. You put this together nicely though. A great tribute.
You sound a lot like my friend Gene! *Coincidence?* . . . . You got me chuckling this morning. Sincerely, *Justin Time*
I may have to download this to give the kids a chill tonight on Halloween! *WHO'S THERE ?*
*OMG* . . . You scared the Hell out of me!
I'm winking right back at you . . . *Birds of a feather*.
*BIGGER THAN LIFE* . . . Again
You have some great lines here . . . *Got Myself A High Priced Honey"* Judging from the headlines in the news lately I think I might have a hint where the inspiration for this song came from. Well done Nick!
