Oh yeah, faved immediately.
I bought some blues harmonicas once - this'll be easy I thought... NOPE! lol (I ended up giving them to a harp player I knew)
I might try again one day, and it's performances like this that make me want to do it.
Fine song, fine everything :-)

Hi Mark,
That was a lot of fun! I think your Harp playing sounds great!
Yes "Cause a Bull Dog to Hug A Hound" sounds like it might fit right into your next masterpiece.
Let's do it.

Greg and I have shared many laughs over the original lyrics for the Blues Tune "Big Leg Women" done by Snooky Pryor and Mel Brown, and these lyrics were the result of some email bantering done to perpetuate the sillyness. Maybe our next take should include Snooky's claim that big legged women have somethin' that'll cause a bulldog to hug a hound!

Hi gang.
The Proods are back....Brian at the helm this time.
Our methodology is thus....one of the 4 of us introduce a song, and then we'll bang out a finished track in under an hour with as few over-dubs as possible. This one we put some effort…

Song #7 for my 2025 RPM Challenge. Another one with my Juno Synth as the main player. It ended up being much longer than intended (but it fits with the title...). I call it a Peter Griffin ending (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4X8HsEj7d4…
Big sound, you still have the touch. I wonder what you are doing the other 11 months of the year (more a statement than a question). I hope you are writing, performing or something associated with music. I always enjoy hearing what you produce.

First song I'm posting for RPM 2025. Not sure I'll finish this year....but I'll try.
Wrote this after listening to more of the horrible news coming out of the US.
Watching for you
Over shoulders
Can’t believe our eyes
Bolt the doors…
Song 5 for my RPM Challenge (the half way mark!). Decided to use my Juno synthesizer for this one - I love that thing. Did this yesterday after a nice winter hike. Thank you to anyone out there who listens - much appreciated xoxo
You touch…
Just a little something to take off the chill of the recent polar vortex here in MN. Thanks for listening!!!

Your music always sounds like you guys are having a GREAT time. Lots of little surprises in this one.
Nice to hear from you, it’s been a long time and you are right … we have enjoyed Alonetone for many years. Happy songwriting!
Two keepers on the same day. I think you said these came from the vault. I wonder what else is in the vault?
This is a great and positive song. It reminds me of my 4 year old neighbor. Her father could be my grandson. That 12 string really sounds good!
Beautiful and restful. I think I'll go get a glass of wine and listen again.
Ahhhh ... the blues!
I'll bet there are a lot of people who can relate to this song.
Beautiful piece of music. It’s remarkable what you can do with software.
Beautiful song John! Great message.
Well done! A fun little piece of music.
This is fun! I love loopers too ❤️
Big sound, you still have the touch. I wonder what you are doing the other 11 months of the year (more a statement than a question). I hope you are writing, performing or something associated with music. I always enjoy hearing what you produce.
Well done! I enjoyed the line "empty Bottles and a pile of unwashed plates" I'm pretty sure she is your valentine.
This hits home. You got me laughing. It’s all true!
Wow! I listened to this last night and again this morning. Lots of emotion in here. Well done.
Interesting texture to this.
You still got the touch! Nice song.
This is pretty neat! I can definitely feel the waves on a calm sea.
Ohhhhhh ... another masterpiece. Great imagery creating visual pictures in my mind all the way through. Excellent start to a new year of songwriting!
Nice work Tilden!
