Hey cannonfire is a great description - I might have to use that sometime.
Thanks everyone for listening
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 ...
this is now a tidied up version 18/3/09
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 ;~)
Written today.
recorded on an iMac with the internal mic and no headphones (!) so it's probably going to be muddy as hell, but that feels about right for now.
LYRIC:
Fill up the glass, Bartender
Ply your art
Quench the fire in here, now…
Thanks guys and gal(s).
And thanks for keeping it in perspective, moschell. I'll see what I can do. Time is short tho' so it might have to grow it's own wings.
It's the story of someone who played his role with dignity and with responsibility all his life, yet toward the end of it he has to wonder if it was all in vain...
This Song (Recorded and written in 06) done the conventional way. I Wrote the words 1st. I was thinking I would like to write a song kinda like those of the old days. Pretty straight forward and Not too abstract. I need to redo because the chorus…
From today's one hour session:
acoustic guitar, fretless electric bass, tabla, tambourine, and the synthesque sound is the electric guitar played with a violin bow
Yeah I noticed yourself and Tess had done 1 hour tunes but I missed where it all started.
This one is very cool. It's like spaghetti western with a cappacino and candles. ;~))
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).
Old Conor Higgins…
I'm learning to play piano and my teacher has given me 'Old Joe Clarkes Boogie' to play. For 2 weeks it has kicked my ass. But I'm getting to grips with it now and this is my revenge!
The musical parts were recording using my Kurzweil SP3X…
Here she comes in the April sun
In her dungarees and she's up for fun
Smiling like she's a crazy girl
And she makes a face like she owns the place
And she does
We indulge ourselves in creating
A neck of beauty and circumstance
Not to mention…
Honestly I have no idea where this came from or how.
I was messing with Omnisphere patches and came across a lovely, flutey, breathy sound that put me in mind of the scenes inside the monolith at the end of 2001. I setup a Rytme pattern to…
This is a live recording of a set I did with guitarist Mike Levine on a University of New Hampshire radio show. This is one of the 'songs' we did. It is a 5-tune Irish fiddle set that was previously done by the great Irish fiddle player Martin…
I believe the tunes are
Paul Ha'penny / The Garden of Butterflies / The Broken Pledge / The Mother and Child Reel / Toss the Feathers
I turned it on and now I have to listen to the end again!
Me too! I keep looking over my shoulder. ºvº
I hope I sleep tonight

This has been haunting me all day, GUMBO!!
Like this one a lot. Guitar work is good, I like the way you have it in the mix, and the singing is great.
Lets hear it for Tom Waits then, I say. Well inspired!
Ooh, love that canon-fire backing vox! PS - Glad "your hat" also makes an appearance!
Love those lyrics!!
