Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…

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…

Wow, this is stunning. Beautiful melancholy. Such a gentle, passionate feel on the mandolin, guitar and your vocal is breathtaking. Wow again. Love this.
I'm finally happy with this track - v1 was too much of a nothing song and it's been bugging me all the way to the last night of the challenge.

Day 28
Anyone else still writing songs?
this is the result of trying to listen to too many mixes in one day. Sometimes it's just easier to record something else.
Hi Stu, what a fantasic RPM. Every track a gem and unnervingly authentic. Feel like I've been listening to a Smithsonian archive release. Glad you used One Thing, it's achingly beautiful. Standout for me is Take Yourself to Bed. Even gives Ralph Stanley a run for his money. And Chicken! cracks me up. Brilliant.
Sassy Nation version!

A grief song. You know this place. If you don't then move on while you still can. Seriously. Don't click ..
This is a tidied up version, I managed to get rid of some of th noise and rebalance the vocals 18/3/09
one of those 'it was written even before i started' songs that just rolls out like magic
i tried to keep it simple so as not to destroy the vibe
first finished (if unmixed) track for RPM 2010
Anyone read Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr - my daughter lent it to me - teenage Faery novel about addiction - pretty creepy at times.
This is the one act musical version.
I wanted a 'deranged in our neighbourhood' kind of feel to it.
this is brilliant mate. love the chorus.. sounds like some band i been listening to what i forgot the name of. edward sharpe and something or other. anyway.. hats off. (another) great track (that i missed)
this is one i have to stop tweaking - six versions and i still don't get what i hear in my head
would love some crit for this one as it's doing my head in
thanks

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…

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 ...

Great cover, Stu. Love the multitracked vocals.
I wonder if I'll ever get over the thrill of hearing you sing my lyrics! Huge thanks, Gumbo.
shades of Beck here....blissfully sad!
You've got a brilliant voice, very expressive. Loving the alt-country feel to your stuff.

Wow.

Love the opening mix of instruments on this. Inspired ... and then that wonderful vocal. Great track altogether.
that's the stuff!
Funky!
Noice version :-) whatever way you recorded that guitar is lovely. Is it reverb/delay or is it the room?
man your voice works beautifully on this
Funky as Fark. This is Marvellous.
Wow! this is stunning. What a beaut!
