A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).

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 ;~)

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.
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
A happy song about being left by your no-good spouse. There's a word for the attitude in this song but I can't think of it right now ...

I'm a complete idiot when it comes to all things midi related. Recently got myself a midi keyboard though and came up with this short piece just messing with sounds in Proteus. Really looking forward to the possibilities of combining this sort…
Okay, this is the "finished" version...
Lyrics:
I’ve been meaning to get drunk and try to forget you.
Instead, I’m finding new ways to just upset you.
Baby, I just can’t stay in my mind,
Unintended and unsung, just like all the bad bad…
A solar flare is the ejaculation of energy from the north pole or the south pole of this super concentrated point which has turned itself into a black hole because it has so much energy that it’s sucking in everything around it at such an exponential…
Now ye sons of the kraaken, let's get to some honest pillaging, shall we? Aaaarh!
The devil is an idle jest compared to what's within this chest
No hearts more black than ours they say
trust your own hide to be waterproof only
else they…
Now ye sons of the kraaken, let's get to some honest pillaging, shall we? Aaaarh!
The devil is an idle jest compared to what's within this chest
No hearts more black than ours they say
trust your own hide to be waterproof only
else they…
Here now, there be treasure to hide and we'll bury it full deep in the earth, and ye with it if you tell the tale. To the shovels lads, and dig down.
International Talk Like A Pirate day is upon us, so swab yer decks and break open the Rum…
Comments on Gumbo's stuff
Nice. Like the feel and sound of this one.
beautiful mandolin playing
Haha! And..? :-D
Speedy GonSavage!!
Yes, it's suddenly a whole lot prettier from here too. What a lovely new helping of Gumbo Stu. Harmonies work brilliantly.
Dig it!
Great cover. Love it Stu.
You already know I really like this!
Typical great stuff by Mr Gumbo

Sorry, *where* do I grab it?

Comments made by Gumbo
or perhaps 'Zappa-esque' is a less obscure comment ;-)
Bizzarre! Frank? Bizzarre? *grin*
something about that 'waay overseas' is just perfect spot on
I enjoyed this kirk - it's great to hear a bit of funk in the mix
it sounds effortless, Kavin., but there's some lovely interplay going on in this. Very nice indeed.
I always love the soul in your vocals, David.
this is pretty groovy, too
You're telling it like it is there, mmi
Damn you're on a roll
Perfect - like a cross between Led Zeppelin and Leonard Cohen!
I'm sold - my new favourite band - when's the world tour?
How come i haven't heard your stuff before - no wait I probably have during the RPM mayhem - but this is great I might have to fave everything you do.
Groovy, Kemo Sabé
Gorgeous - and it has that 'Jungle Book' vibe - perfect!
another stunner! lovely lift to this.
Yeah this one came out better of the two Pirate songs this year. Kind o reminds me of the more 'raucous' tracks by the Kingston Trio.
LOL there's still time, laahd. Man the Rum and break out the cannons !!
Aaarhh now there ye have it, by the Beast's Barnacles, and your day will go swimmingly, so it will. Breakout the RUM! And the coffee!!
Never heard nuthin like it neither. Wicked!
