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…
I needed a place to host a work in progress where it wouldn't be obvious so you might have found a secret mix!!!
So that 4 minute song with the slide guitar that no-one listens to is gone ;-)

OK it's the morning after the party at the China Quay, and our hero is waking up. What has happened?
Influenced by about 6 different doowop tunes (great for hangovers!)
thank you for the comment! i'm slowly learning how to make harmonies, some songs its just much harder on, and other just work themselves out almost... wierd. i sometimes use outside harmony help, i'll find a harmony on my guitar first or something to that nature...

I go back far enough to remember waiting for Ruben and the Jets to be issued on CD, but I think you might have me beat there, kirk. One of my favourite discs. I could get into some beefier backing vocals - that'd be fun.

HA HA- I hear this and all I can think of is Flo and Eddie doing background vocals like on Zappa's "Ruben and the Jets" (yeah I go back that far) Great stuff!

@glu - true but it'll be a great party, someone might want to say it to you!
@Bethan - me too! Bring on the potions!
@kirk - it's tonight, and tomorrow til the money runs out or the ship sails!

This is the first demo [Sister Savage](http://alonetone.com/sistersavage) and I have made for our RPM 2011 album.
Although I've uploaded a copy here we'd be really grateful if you would listen to the [version uploaded by Sister](http://alonetone…
The other night a few of Elvis's friends came over to see him and the thetworegs were listening in by the ventilation shaft from the cellar and they took a liking to a jam that was happening with a man called Diamond Neil doing the Vocals. This…
After Reg's murderous thoughts it only took an argument about who was going to make the tea to make his beloved leave him but the problem was, so had 50% of his lottery winnings and it was this he took hard, He went on the preverbal bender. Waking…
Final version
RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD
A kind of Old Time gospel number, which, if you listen to those pre-war guitar playing preachers, are virtually indistinguishable from blues. Except for the lyrics…
RPM 2011 number 2. Inspired by an ex-friend of mine who had the most dazzling rose tinted glasses. Always used to envy the simplicity of his view and how nothing could ever get to him (everything gets to me).. since i knew him I know a lot of…
My first upload.
This is a cover of probably my favourite song of all time, by The Waterboys, who were introduced to me many years ago when the highlight of my week was Thursday night TV, pizza and quaffing Baileys.
Thanks to Sister S for…
This is the demo version of what was to be a full-on internet band thing. The instruments are place holders (but not bad in part). Just pretend the lead guitar player got into the wine early. Sadly, it will likely never get beyond 'demo', but…
nihilistic? yes. horribly so? not at all. Quite a catchy anthem, in fact. defeatist? possibly ... it depends ..whatcha gonna do about it, eh?
it is kind of ironic being nihilistic *about* a revolution tho ;-)
good track, i loved where the drums pick up in the middle
Having fun (finally) playing around with the riff for this tune by Howling Wolf, which is based on a song by Charley Patton and another by the Mississippi Sheiks and another by Tommy Johnson and so on ...
Comments on Gumbo's stuff
get the yard cut with that sangria? :-) hope it was motivational.
LOL Yes! That's what this needs - a video with thunderstorms and dancers!
I really like the pace of this one. Very laid back... at least it made me very laid back. Also, this is about the speed at which I can actually dance.
thank you for the comment! i'm slowly learning how to make harmonies, some songs its just much harder on, and other just work themselves out almost... wierd. i sometimes use outside harmony help, i'll find a harmony on my guitar first or something to that nature...
*sways* Oh what a moonlight serenade! LOVING your upper register!
How could she say "No" after that?
Laughed all the way through this one. Fun. BTW... I have Ruben and the Jets on vinyl.

Damn- I don't think I can get m passport together by tonight! A fish fry on the west coast of Ireland- what could be better!
@glu - true but it'll be a great party, someone might want to say it to you! @Bethan - me too! Bring on the potions! @kirk - it's tonight, and tomorrow til the money runs out or the ship sails!
time is about the only thing i have right now but I doubt you were calling me baby :-)
Ha ha, mm, very witty sir! I asked for that.
Too cool- Love it! When's the fish fry?
Hahaa! Certainment! Bring your potions - the more the merrier!
Yee Haa, Can I come? You'll have to get rid of that Savage woman!
I've got the time. :-)
Jammin' I love your style man.
Great song!
Love this song, but have to say, these are just f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c lyrics.
Comments made by Gumbo
I love this mix too :-)

Wow.
thanks guys .. only nine to go ...
Love the opening mix of instruments on this. Inspired ... and then that wonderful vocal. Great track altogether.

Noice version :-) whatever way you recorded that guitar is lovely. Is it reverb/delay or is it the room?

Funky as Fark. This is Marvellous.
Wow! this is stunning. What a beaut!
