A fun childrens tune from 2008, it really ought to be a hot fiddle tune but i don't have a hot fiddle.
Old fox coming down the road now Bunny Bunny
Run Run Bunny Bunny Go
White tails bobbing in the air there funny bunny
Go Go Bunny Bunny Run…
First done by Dock Boggs back in the 20s, it's a great piece of melancholy parafunalia. Eerie to think it's a suicide note and reassuring to know he was still a tough old bird 40 years later.
Great song. The tune reminds me a bit of "House of the Rising Sun", which can be traced back to the Appalachian area in the early 1900's (Alan Price of the Animals has claimed that the song was originally a sixteenth-century English folk song about a Soho brothel, and that English emigrants took the song to America where it was adapted to its later New Orleans setting.) Cool piece and well done!

Ever since i heard Cave Street's Creator Protector Destroyer (from their 2010 RPM album) run from that song back into the opening didj of Onion Bell (the first track) i wanted to put the lyrics to that pulsing energy, and today i had time to give…

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 ;~)
This is great like a hangover.
I have a hangover.
I had a great night. I remember what fun it was and bits of it make me burst out in a big grin. And yet i feel very different today. Slowly, warily i get on with my life, bits of the past intrude without being asked, and I'm sort of unbalanced.
If things are too quick it almost hurts so I trust to the slow things.
Pictures. Songs.
Beautiful.
This tune was sounding so dramafree and happy-go-lucky that I decided to write some (uncharacteristically) dramafree and happy-go-lucky lyrics. The sound at the beginning is from my Nokia-phone which I also use as my alarmclock. I was then reminded…
Featuring a sweet reference to the Loretto Chapel's mysterious staircase and the most wonderful mylar balloon ever manufactured (with allusion to secret promise attached).
I mostly wanted to make music with a funky clav line I'd come up with, so this is it. For the voiceover, I unabashedly used an awesome monologue by Ken Nordine.
I came up with the main bass riff on my electric bass, but after recording it I was unhappy with the tone, so I used a sampled upright bass. On top of that is a layer of doodling "lead guitar" (played on my bass), a dreamy semi-harsh organ sound…
This instrumental song is about the rabbit in the moon. Fact: the ancient Aztecs measured drunkenness in number of rabbits. Like, "Oh, cheg out Bill, he's 300 rabbits." "Dude, I was like 230 rabbits last week and I got kicked out of the Florida…
Oh, I had such big plans for this song. Acoustic guitar, tin whistle, maybe go and drag the bagpipes out of storage (cough, or as the case really would be: fire up Logic, so I can use an external plugin).
I went to storm spotters training instead…

Another brilliant job. Nice work, Stu.
Great song.

Cool piece and well done!
Just ducky Mr. Gumbo. I love it!!
From the samples I've been listening too, DB was a monster banjo picker, among other things.
:) A fun big kid's tune as well. Hightail it Bunny...
R.I.P Dock!
thanks guys kavin. - there's a good Folkways collection of Boggs' 60s recordings and you can hear a few of his 78rpm sides at the Archive.org
Just goes to show you can't trust some people. Ha! It's a great song with the special Gumbo treatment.
Most enchanting Gumbo. Our little ladies will like this one too.
Sister Savage Said.... I hope Bunny pulls out a handgrenade and smashes the lot of them. Nice track! ME.. *GASP* hehe
I know I hate it when I run out of hot fiddle.
Thanks for resurrecting this tune. Well done. Will have to look up some more of Boggs' work.
Very cool! Love the harp breaks!
Like it.. Go Bunny!
Smashing cover! Great harmonies GUUUUMBOOOOO!!!!!
I hope Bunny pulls out a handgrenade and smashes the lot of them. Nice track!
Love the sparseness to this. Simple but very effective. This has a classic feel to it. Well done!
Very smooth, very interesting.
Awesome.
Iron Angel is a great grizzly blacksmith man who would probably love that you covered his tune and such a great job you did doing so.
