Today we put the couch out by the road
5-G…
This is all me...
VOICES
There is something deep inside that wants to laugh and cry
Something that would like to tell it's story
There is something deep inside that wants to dance and wants to fly
Maybe you would guess it's called the…
THERE, I SAID IT
The more you got, the more you got to lose
From the top of your head down to the bottom of your shoes
The things you love. The things you abuse
It's enough to give a white boy the blues
I said it. There, I said it
It might…
FOR A PENNY
From the moment Toy saw the light
he was the center of attention.
In a room full of sunlight and 'Welcome,"
he was a new dimension.
Tiny traveler, arriving wet
Peggy hardly breaking a sweat
Toy was born in the middle of the…
Again, while not exactly the tone of Neil Young, your execution and delivery is indeed an echo of that very talented Canadian. The sung parts, anyway. Sweet story.
KAWEAH (says the crow)
"Kaweah, Kaweah"
There's a place on up the hill
Redwood trees are standing still
The murmur of the river will invite you
Lay your head down on a rock
You'll forget about the clock
The whisper of the sun will…
I CAN'T TELL
I can't tell if it's morning or evening
I can't tell night from day
I can't tell if I'm arriving or leaving
Doesn't mean a thing to me
Since you went away
I can't tell if it's sunny or raining
I can't tell if it's…
This is all me...

This song is the concluding song on my RPM Challenge February album. It is a good-bye to the project.

Not a good-bye to Alonetone
or anything else.
SEE YA
It has been a lot of fun
Listening to…
Your tone is not Neil, but your style, your delivery, is very much Neil. This is a really enjoyable recording. Very exciting, very tastefully done. ROCK ON!

LIFE
The art of life, it lies between
Hanging on and letting go
I didn't ask to be alive
It's the best life that I know
So we are here, so let us be
Adding to the gripping tale
The universe can know itself
As we journey on our…
THE BEST I'VE FOUND
A ray of sun, an act of grace
A bit of song, a smiling face
Can lift me from dispair
And when I'm lost in yesterday
I find a kiss along the way
Will bring me here from there
A super moon, a darker blue
A purring…
Sweet song.
My song CODY'S SURPRISE is not a made up story.
I waited for a couple of years for Cody to write the song. He's a horse trainer singer/songwriter friend of mine living and working in California. Finally decided to write it for him. It was quite a trauma for him. His cowboy name is Cody Pendant.
So 50/90 is an unnatural forcing of a crap ton of songs in a relatively short period of time. We're half way though and I've learned one thing. I've learned how easy it is to repeat something you've already done. This one sounds a LOT like…
An old one remastered. Thought I'd be posh and call it that !!!! Didn't realize I wrote this 7 years ago, it is a bit of a rant, quietly !!! I apologise in advance if any one is offended by the Lyrics, just my opinion !!!!
This was written in 1983. Used as backing music for a dance project in Ft Collins, CO. There is now a lyric and a melody. This version is a serious jam.
Like anyone who happens to look, I see the signs of a failing economy all over the Country. This song is a effort to encourage folks to struggle for a more open and equitable system for the financial benefit of all of us.

Your music has a very interesting over all sound. The way you put it all together. There is a smoothness to it. Gentle. Harmonies, very sweet. What kind of program are you using.
A bit of nonsense maybe ?? Started off as an instrumental then these words popped out. Call me lazy if you must, but couldn't think of more !!!
C'est la vie !!!!
When we sat down to work the demo on this tune, Matt already had the guitar layering and arrangement worked out--including the wicked long intro. The lyrics are based around something my wife and I did when I was away on business. When I called…
A song about taking the time to raise our kids instead of letting them do what ever they want. I know, I know...shut up old man. Go ahead, you can say it. It's a rocker that we had a ton of fun producing. It's the only track that Matt says anything…
Comments on James Michael Taylor's stuff
So sad to let it go ....
Mad as a box of frogs....loved it !
Where do you get a drink when your pissing in the sink..... What a great line ....
Again, while not exactly the tone of Neil Young, your execution and delivery is indeed an echo of that very talented Canadian. The sung parts, anyway. Sweet story.
Love the lyrics ....beautifully done ...
You got a hit with this one James my children like it !! And so do I ....
I really dig this.
Congratulations James! I'm way behind this year. You are an inspiration.
Your tone is not Neil, but your style, your delivery, is very much Neil. This is a really enjoyable recording. Very exciting, very tastefully done. ROCK ON!
Your vocal work is amazing! I really enjoyed this....
Glad to know you are not disappearing! I am also attempting the RPM challenge. So you are amazing - done already!! I love your music!
Now that I get it -- VERY COOL! Glad to know you're not leaving the AloneTone family. Keep it real!
Where are you going?? will miss your great music. Best wishes!!!
Very cool message
Much of this, for me, strongly echoes the spirit of a young Neil Young.
Ah yes the sweetness of those old California summer days.
very nice vocals, like the song it puts a smile on ones face ;-)
beatiful sound coming from your guitar sir, love the song too !
A sweet sentimental remembrance of an old friend. I can't help but feel that you have just shown the rest of us . . . *That's How It's Done*
You're the only songwriter I know that would, and successfully cold, write a tear-jerker about an old couch. 5 solid gold kudos! Keep it real, James!

I like this. Reminds me of Steven Stills. But you need to bring your voices out in the mix. As loud as the guitar, at least, when you are singing.
Puts my back in the 50s. Recognized Bethan's sweet voice instantly.
Love the guitar sound. "There will be people you wish you'd never met." Great big sound. Great production.
Great groove. Very nice...
Time to add more songs, Bruce.
Really like the voice. Such a sad song.
Yeah. Great guitar work. Production really rocks.
Very nice. Like a continuation of CITY OF NEW ORLEANS
Is that you on electric guitar?
really!!!

Beautifully done.
Great guitar sound and mix. So clean. What are recording with...program? (pyropool@earthlink.net)
Your playing is so clean and bright. Are you mic-ing your guitar? So wistful.
Soooo pretty with a touch of sad.
So bright and sunny. Makes me see happy lovers playing on the beach. Children playing in a park.
Nice sentiment. Unity thru common vision.
You guys really have that ZZ tightness... My son is too good to play with me.
