Fiddling around with an open G tuning and I found the chord that 'Prodigal Son' is based on (a Robert Wilkins tune from the 30s made famous by the Stones) so I had a play around with it, stopped for dinner and came back and wrote the lyrics…
This is a bonus track as it didn't make the album
For those of you who know my stuff - does this sound like it works? or is it too much like filler - the vocals are effected, there's a drum loop - the guitar is just chopped out of a jam - i…
A fun childrens tune from 2008, it really ought to be a hot fiddle tune but i don't have a hot fiddle.

Aarrhhh ye scurvy sons (and daughters) of sea-rats, the pesky pluckers have been at it again.
Pin back yer lug-holes or it's the plank ye'll be hoping for!
This is my 2007 Pirate Day song, written and recorded September 19th 2007. I like the innuendo, but maybe it's too subtle - nobody else seems to notice ;~)

A tune I wrote and recorded last year as a result of a good friends hungry teenage daughter sitting in the dance tent at the Sunrise festival chanting 'pizza, pizza!'. Working on a new album if yer interested. New tracks soon with any luck.
Tis a true story about a friend, I was fascinated by the concept of friends sharing one black "funeral" dress passing it along like it was a hip handbag
She went to work like any other day
It didn't hit her till that package came
The first…

Comments on Gumbo's stuff
...gotst'likzitz!!!!!!! yUp!
thank you Guest! it's an interesting dichotomy for sure. The words are by Cave Street, btw - check out his/their music here at Alonetone
Frank Zappa once said - "You Are What You Is" It's unnerving but true and as Gumbo says "Memories Will Never Die" - Great Song!
I would Gumbo, but it's that Sister Planet woman, keeps pushing me out of the way!
Alright, yeah!
Just a complete pleasure to listen to!
Love it...whatta sound, a sing-a-long of the best kind! Quality stuff.
