I'm not sure if this is rockabilly or late 40s jump R'n'B. Dance music though. I had fun with the lyrics and the backing vocals. This is now a tidied up version 18/3/09

An old time fiddle tune without the fiddle, or the tune, really, so the vocal has to carry it, and it has that lovely raw propulsion. Written and recorded in an hour.

This was the first time I'd fired up my telecaster and amp for a recording and it felt like sitting in Sun Studios or something. Amazing sound after playing just acoustic instruments for a year. It's the first take and I loved it! This is now…

this is the slightly sparkly version of my version of Moschell's "Boxes and Strings" from his 'Circus of Freaks and Fools' RPM Challenge CD. I recorded it as a video last night and redid it in the studio (unfinished sauna) today.

A cover of Iron Angel Forge's song from his 2009 RPM Challenge album, Not Forsaken. He is here at alonetone under the name IronAngel. I haven't told him yet, though, so it's a surprise ;~)

White Light was written in June along with 10 other "Off the cuff" tunes. Just before the great flood in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our house was flooded and slowly being rebuilt. This is 4th of the 10 to be recorded.

I do not know anyone named Lilly Child. I just thought the name sounded good. This is third of 10 "Off the cuff" songs written last June. I have only recorded 4 of the 10

No.2 of 10 "Off the cuff" songs written in June. A song about someone the singer knows is nearby and is the right one but has yet to be found.

An older (very old indeed) song that tells the story about that old Reaper that likes to come around.

Music for a computer trying to find the answer to the ultimate question.
