This song speaks to a dichotomy I've noticed about the digital age. While businesses certainly have a lot to say to their customers, and use all kinds of electronic means to reach them, the same is not true of the individual. Now that we have…
I would be much more likely to switch the call alert on my phone on, if I liked talking on it...but I guess that's a different point. :-) The only really great form of communication is non-verbal anyway. :-)
This is the first song on the first CD I ever compiled. You'll notice a piano as the primary instrument, and extensive use of horns. I wrote it years ago, and play it when I need some cheering up. Hope you like it.

Another older song, this is my attempt to sound like one of my all-time favorites, Robin Trower. While he never used horns in his songs, I like them (being a former sax player), so I used them in this song to enhance the sound. Let me know what…

This is a lullaby I wrote for my oldest daughter when she was a toddler. Some think it's sweet, and I appreciate that, but I wrote so I could also sing it to her when she wouldn't shut the f*ck up and go to bed!
Girls! Women! Birds! Chicks! This song's about all the pretty girls out there (and you know who you are)! This song celebrates each and everyone of them.
While the name of the song is a Spinal Tap reference, this one is almost a period piece, taking us back to the early 80s when record players and mixtapes were how we listened to and shared our music.
This song's about getting reacquainted with your ol' guitar after neglecting it for a few years.
Back in 2006 our band started working on writing and recording music for our project, TheSongOfTheDay.com where we released one song for each…
Like this one, too. You need bass and drums to go with this to make it really take off IMHO. But free advice is worth exactly what you pay for it! Nice song.

I have enjoyed listening to your songs. They are mostly laid back and relaxing to the ear. This one makes good use of the organ as the main instrument. I also like your use of multiple vocals.
Keep up the good work.

Thanks to Mike Brown for lending a hand with the lead parts.. despite trying his damnedest not to! Also thanks for MMI for the advice which in part at least, I took!
I'm gonna call you dirty from now on in x2
I'm gonna call you dirty from…
Just letting out my frustration at 'people' in general again.. nice to be able to vent it in a more pleasant way (for those interested in how I used to do it, please see http://alonetone.com/boynamedsu) :)
Lo and behold now holy guacamole if…
Very nice, sir. And I agree. Sometimes I tend to overdo songs too. You were right to do the harmonies and leave it pretty much as it is. Excellent song.

Lovely melody, Terry, and nice harmonies to boot!
Good one, Terry, great music and harmonies.
Yes, love the jangly music...very nice!
Love those guitar parts!
The moody sax and finger picking go really well together here.
Crazy days - great song!
Tip of the hat to the back up band :)
Nice vibrato! Great delivery.
Great lyrics, Terry, and I really like the harmonious backing singing. By the way, did your boss go bust?
I really like the piano, Terry, it quite surprised me, very nice!
Great guitar work! The horns are a nice touch too
Truly funky guitar there, Terry.
I totally dig the guitars. Creative and playful, nice variety of sounds. Like the horns too (I'm also a former sax player)
What sympathetic backing, Terry, suits Tess's beautiful voice.
It's lovely Terry, I like your harmonies as well.
this is so cool you remind me of randy newman! sooooo cool!
you've got a great voice. keep on singin!
I like the guitar sound on this.
Especially like the lyrics, Terry and your musical back up is great.

I only had one groupie and I married her. What does that say about my storied music career? ER
Sounds like how I used to spend my afternoons at home when I was a teenager. Who's the fan of Spinal Tap? ER
Great rock and roll song here. Love the chorous, too. ER
This is how I greet my guitar when I take it out of it's case. Love your guitar work on this. ER
Very nicely played! I learned to play piano but never like this. Well done. ER
Excellent picking here. I'm green with envy. ER
Love the affects you used on this. Nice study in echo and reverb. ER

I like this. I used to live in Chicago, and I chuckle at your descriptions. ER

Love the intro on this with the child's voice. Is that you or one of your kids? And what was the inspiration for this song? ER
Looks like you got your anger out on this one. I know the feeling. Well done. ER
I agree. I try to be more than the sum of my parts. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Got song. ER
Love the harmonies. ER
Very nice, sir. And I agree. Sometimes I tend to overdo songs too. You were right to do the harmonies and leave it pretty much as it is. Excellent song. ER
And those notes work very well together! Love it. ER
Love your harmonies. I wish I could do as well. I agree. Another good one indeed. ER
Very nice. Sometimes departures yield new and interesting music. Well done. ER
Rockin' tune! Love your harmonies. ER
