We all know someone like this. Sometimes I'm like this. Anyway, recorded using my Epiphone semi-hollowbody. I love the gtr sound on this one. Again, it's older, so the sonic quality isn't anywhere near what I do now.

Nothing like a good gtr riff to inspire a song. This one is backwards in a way. The first verse has a lot of layers, the second one is much cleaner...
I had fun doing the backing vox on this one, it was the first day I really had my voice back…
So, I get this e-mail from a friend who had gone to NYC for a conference. At this conference she meets the love of her life, and the weekend turns into a steamy one spent locked in a hotel room. Slight problem...she was already married. She didn…
Well, this is why I don't play drums. It's the best Moon I could pull off. I keep hammering the gtr riff over and over, but it's because it was so much fun to play. Its structure is a little too meandering in hindsight, but oh well. For whatever…
The riff came to me in a flash and was probably the first time I recorded an idea on my (then) new micro-cassette player. It was supposed to be one of those spoken songs, complete with 70's backing vocals. I don't know if I pulled it off, but…

So, I start playing my Guild acoustic. However, the strings were new and had gone all slackish, meaning down a few tones. I liked what it sounded like and took them all off. I then restrung the gtr with super heavy guage acoustic strings. I then…

There's a historical marker near the side of the road on McCrea Hill just down the road. Jane gets a passing credit as the last line of the plaque reads "Sister Jane was martyred."
Neat little piece of American history you might want to delve…
I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
Here is my entry for the "Who Knew" Song Writing Challenge. Thanks for including me :)
Lyrics:
When I was a young boy
I never knew what it meant
to be unloved
When I was a young man
I never knew what it meant
to be undone
Now I’m…
Here is my contribution to the latest song writing challenge posted in the Alonetone Forum.
_______________________________________________
Who Knew when I first met you
That all your troubles would be mine
And you’d be coming around again…
Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

**Nobody Loves You - A A J Russe**
Nobody loves you
Like you…
I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…
This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!
I borrowed the title from one of my favourite madrigals, The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons:
"The silver swan who living hath no note, when death approached…
This is the first thing I recorded using the telecaster you can see in my profile pic. It's a one-take jam played over one of those guitar magazine backing tracks. Thanks for the listen :-)
My humble tribute to Freddie King... Without him we wouldn't have Eric & without Eric, I would probably have never picked up a guitar.
This is sort of a pastiche of Hide Away & The Stumble & tracks like that :-)
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…
A remix in lieu of a cover for the Angie Fights Crime Covers Album. I can't sing in my house at the moment since it either wakes up the 5 month old, or pisses off the 3 year old. So I thought I'd try something different.
The original, is very…
Our cover of the Angie Fights Crime song "Fall Down Trying".
Featuring Bob Sorace on guitar and backing vocals and Leslie Sorace on backing vocals.
It's all a matter of he said/she said
If only he could remember what he said…

I like the minimalist approach on this one, nice feel!

The whole record has such a cool atmosphere, but this one really grabbed me. I love the simple beauty of it.
Great song!
Brilliant. Love the atmosphere...
Like the feel of this one, nice one, Nick!
Sounds like it belongs on Nashville Skyline...nice one, Greg!
I like the way the last "Who Knew" in the chorus twists...Nice work!
Hooked!
