Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Great cover...kinda know where he's coming from, though more recently manic depression has been re-labelled a bipolar bear syndrome!:-)Oh yes, there's a song in that, I just haven't recorded it...yet!
I took an old track that was a cover of Hear my train and dropped the vocals and added some new electric guitar tracks. I had just upgraded my recording setup and was testing some hardware and software when I did this. It has a punchy lil guitar…
This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
Okay Andrew R. , this ones for you bud. Had a little fun with it in the intro. That was the surprise.
I put the bass line down and arranged the drums Saturday morning and returned later that night about 10:00 pm . I worked until 2 am and laid…
This was a one of the versions of Stay I was working on from a year and a half ago. I put a mic in a narrow hall way closet and went in recorded the guitar and vocal simultaneously. Hoping to get a break in the action and get one of my new songs…
I got a new amplifier and instead of doing what I should have been doing I did this. It gets a little crazy in the middle and its microtonal so the vocals are gonna sound out - but I enjoyed it. Yeah, those be drum loops. 15 notes per octave.
Yesterday was a misfire because I had the drums misaligned - but Fabrizio came to the rescue and mixed this properly! We hope you enjoy our collaboration!
Earth, Can You Hear me Now? is a rock composition in 17 notes per octave (17 edo, 17…

I doesn’t matter what I say
All the time we spent is gone now

You cry
I'm not even asking why
Your head's up in the sky now
Your alive
When I ask you to explain…
A pop-rock thingy recorded in 2006. Can't remember too much about it except that it was a new song then, I spent an inordinate amount of time on the lyrics and arrangement, and wasn't that happy with it when I was done(!).
I quite like it now…
This is an oldie. Recorded in 2005. It was the first recording I finished on a DAW, but I'd played it a lot in the last band I was in (around the turn of the century). I think it was written in the mid 90s. It's about one of the casualties of…

As turning the pages of memory, randomly and lento. All that I know, is seen not as it was actually, but with age and experience (...dusted?). How can I forget? Do I need to?

Nice playing.

Dark, reminds me of Soundgarden. Good stuff.
With the heaviness!
Love how this builds up. Nice songwriting.:)
Love tunes like this.
This is really nifty tune. Love the subdued vocal. It opens up really well when the strings enter. I agree CK, can only here it on alonetone.
Great song. Love the choice of instruments.
Love the lyrics.
The opening vox kill me. Powerful!
Masterful......
Golden! Cant say enuff again.
What a voice.
Retro tune....bringing me back to bands like Simple Minds. Nice solo in there as well.
I see what Citizen ref's Riders with the heavy trem on the guitar. Nice funky tune. I would pay and stay to see this band.
Perfect...you have to be tearing up the local scene.
This is so damn good. My my...the way it is supposed to be played.
Oh hell yeah! Stoked!
This very darn good. Your vocals fit perfect over a jazz tune like this. Love it.
Hell yeah bluesman! Stingy playin! Never heard a blues about influenza.
