Literally hot off the press, this is how my life is going right now.
(c)2012 T.A.Beckett
I used to work in an office.
White collar job just the same.
Order this and order that.
Put the Devil to shame.
Then one day the boss man
Asked me to change…
This is another song originally written in a country music vein, but through the 12 step process it's been reformed. The lyrics came from a night at a bar where I noticed a young woman who was trying too hard to have fun. She looked much too…
This song comes from comparing my behavior to that of my children. And I have found out that history does indeed repeat itself.
Thanks for stopping by to listen. I'll post the lyrics as soon as I find them.

Yeah I feel ya! A great compilation of sounds. Diggin' your breakdown. Very interesting and original techniques being employed here! Groovy as hell! Rock on!
I once worked for a retail company in the computer industry. One of my fellow buyers took a job at another company, then returned six months later as a salesman for that company. This is a song of how he might have felt returning to the city…
That guitar really caught me. I like the break into acoustic too.
Quote: *"I wrote this song some time ago with much more of a country feel to it. Thanks to the 12 step process I'm better now,"*
I feel your pain, I grew up with Country Music. After years of professional help, I'm almost healed.

Sam did a great job on this song. Both the lead and backing vocals are hers. The song could use a little editing, but I thought you'd all like to hear it anyway.
Enjoy.

As you can see, I sometimes duplicate titles with different lyrics and musical styles. This one just popped into my head one day and wouldn't leave until I wrote it down.
Enjoy.

Part of my remix all tracks with Audacity project.
Written after buying my first synth.
The lead guitar here is a Peavey 5150 amp simulator
and I played a bit vocally with old tape echo.
Lyrics:
Sunrise, I'm talkin' to you

A song written for my dear old friend, Kirk Lynch, who I've known for almost 20 years. For those who don't know, Kirk and I live less than an hour apart, but I swear it's been five years since we've seen each other in person, which just ain't…
Traditional Irish - Arranged by Doug Sparling
The last of my traditional Irish tunes for now...I learned both these tunes on my Kirk Lynch uilleann pipes when I had them - now I just play them on guitar best I can.
Buachaill On Eirne is…
Just one of those passing moods. Just finished today - august 2 2009. I resisted the temptation to try to develop it any further and just let it be what it is
Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…
i wrote this cuz ummm i'm really annoyed with everyone thinking a president can be a good person and i think that obama is as much if not more of a liar than john mccain and just as much a murderer as bush
Inventive use of reversed percussion here. I could never get anything of any quality when I tried it. Sounded like mush. You did very well with it. Like your bass work also.
Thanks for the comment on my songs. This piece is full of political and social commentary. Not many artists are willing to do that any more for fear of alienating the masses. I applaud your courage.
This is my first recording and not great quality. I have ordered a better quality microphone, just waiting for it to arrive. Quality aside, I was hoping for some constructive critcism/comments on my version of this song.
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.
This song is friends with [song for themcgruff](http://alonetone.com/sudara/tracks/song-for-themcgruff)
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…
This is from our album, "When I Was Your Age," recorded entirely in the month of February for our third year participating in the RPM Challenge. "When I Was Your Age" is a collection of 13 songs looking back at when we were kids.

With a title like this, you have to listen once, right?
There's a lot to tell about this one, but instead I will just say I had a lot of fun doing all the gtr parts on this one. I also really like the bass part in the chorus, which sounds a bit…
Turn this one up REALLY FREAKING LOUD!
Written, recorded and polished off in about 45 minutes or so. Clearly my British influence shines forth in this one, right down to the SG through a Vox amp tones and backward riffs here and there. (and…
Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!
Original track by Sister Savage:
http://alonetone.com/sistersavage/tracks/little-england
This one is pure pop. Voice pitched 1/2 step up.
Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…

Woo... like this one a lot, straight from the off. There's some fab guitar going on. Love the solo.
I love this track! ER ~ I have to say, this for me is the best think you've ever done! Excellent! w;-)
Dig the organ line, ER! w;-)
Nice song and arrangement:)
Cool song, slamming guitar riffs!
Really like this one! Wish I could play the keys like that!
Yeah I feel ya! A great compilation of sounds. Diggin' your breakdown. Very interesting and original techniques being employed here! Groovy as hell! Rock on!

Great song, and I love the feel to this... LG
Love those guitars and that groove.
Love the guitars and arrangement. Big and inventive sounds. And some mean leads in the instrumental.
I can relate. In fact I can relate RIGHT NOW.
Sweetness. I hope she loved it. :)
Like how this one skips along. And I love the sentiments :)
Great piano line! w;-)
Ooo this resonates big time with me... lol Nice one
Love the keyboard pitch-bending and blending of styles. Cool stuffs!
Really nice melody here Terry with catchy chorus. Lovely stuff!
Having problems getting my comment through! Great philosophy, my friend.
Still absolutely love this!

Very nice guitar work here, amigo.
Like the use of synthesizers for this piece. Nice beat, too. ER
I refuse to wear a tutu, but I like this song nonetheless. I'll leave the sparkly shoes to Bethan. ER
Very nice song, sir. Love the strings. Gives the song a rich feel to it. ER
Very nice guitar work on this. Another song my fat fingers could never play! ER
Another very nice piece. Love the melody instrument. Synth? Flute?
Excellent guitar work here, Kirk. I wish I could play as well. ER

Something you should realize - if you recognize what you are, that makes you better than most people. Pretty special, huh? ER
Love the synth in this. Gives is a comedic quality. ER
Very well played. Enjoyed every moment. ER
Very nice. Haunting and beautiful at the same time. ER
Funny thing is that I've said as much to my own kids. Ugh! ER
Decisions decisions! I just can't make up my mind. I can't eat them all but I can't pick just one. ER
I agree. And I've said that, in abstentia, to many a girlfriend. ER
Liked this track a lot. Nice harmonies. ER
I have coffee all over my PC! And I, too, laughed my backside off! Loved it loved it loved it. ER
I must say I like this mix the best. The echo at the end, and the beat, appeal to me the most. ER
I have always liked this song. Good work, amigo. ER
