Oh yet another nostalgic blast from the past. I found this unbelievable backing track surfing the web some years ago. I usually never use backing tracks because they usually suck bad . But this one is like having mitch and noel at your side. I…
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…
Okay , this may be my last Hendrix cover for awhile. I have been itching to record a few new original songs that are waiting in the wings. These covers were fun to do and I discovered alot about the songs I didnt no before. On this one I added…

This is pretty wacky and progressive ... sounds like this group of tunes was recorded with different equipment than It Takes a Village stuff ... just a different overall sound to the mixes ...completely different than what I have heard. You are quite versatile in your music.
This is an ode for a good friend of mine that had took his own life at the end of last year. I was in the midst of writing some other songs and it stopped me in my tracks. I just wrote basically how I felt about this tragic ending to a very special…
This was the first in this set of 3 songs I am posting. I was gaining alot of inspiration from the likes, of Justin Currie and Jackson Browne at the time.
Recorded using Reaper DAW & Jamstix virtual drummer software.
Good song great vocals!. Like the sound of the acoustic guitar and the electric is pretty tasty ... real nice job on the whole package ... everything well placed in the mix.

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…

Reg crawled out of his bunker and wandered down the hill where Jip 1965 found him and dragged him round to FDR,s cave,the beer flowed,the whiskey jug was emptied and we all turned into AC/DC. And then we went down the Rum Runner and rocked the…
Another one of my lil ditties that I started writing at the bowling alley. First game I bowled a 204 the rest of the evenin the games were less exciting. Get me high, then strike a blow
I wrote this after I sang with a friend
at his mother's funeral.
He had always wondered
why he looked nothing like his brothers...
DOOR MAT
Key - A
A) My daddy treated Mama like a door mat
D) Me and little brother didn't like that…
I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…
Another one jip1965 sent to me for playing with!
Silent and magical
Calming and practical
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Filtering through the air
Twinkling in our hair
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Dancing on the leaves of trees
Shaking…
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…
FYI, there is a glitch in the number of listens on this track. The other day 70+ listens popped up from in one day from another alonetoner. Has this happened to anyone else? Strange.
As I reflected on the 100th anniversary this past year of the ship's sinking, this song brought me back to the piano and this was the rendition that was produced as I thought of that fateful night. Original music by James Horner and lyrics by…
Ok - a collab between myself, Lady Jane and FDR. I hope the MP3 does it justice. Nice one you guys.
I put the basics together, FDR did lead and suggested the theme on "gliding", and LJ created the words, sang, added some effects (chimes, woodblock…
Standard tuning, very cool approach than. I thought some of it sounded standard and a couple parts had me wondering. Nice work. The vocals remind me of a version Zappa did of Purple Haze. I have been on the fence like Mac has been about doin a tribute. I say do it. NIce job kavin.
Reg has started to face some facts while at rehab.....

Wow never heard this Shania tune! Nice work!
Ahhh....love it love it love it. One of my faves. Perfect rendition.
Balls to the wall. Turn it to 11!
You could sing about Corn flakes and we would all still be in awe. Thanks for sharing.
I dont know where to begin. Special stuff , my lord.
So damn soulful.
Haaa! Great job. Very cool vocals. Taking me back to Loggins and Messina era.
Pheww, your vocals are killer. That is a great 2 minutes.
Love it. What a vocal on this. You always connect the listener with the song. Another beauty added to the catalog.
This could crush thru brickwalls and tear steel I - beams. Nice finger grease!
Oooh....nice vocals , love the bridge section changes.
Okay, after a few tweaks, spaceship sounds, fuzz guitar and a better drum track I am happy now.
FYI, there is a glitch in the number of listens on this track. The other day 70+ listens popped up from in one day from another alonetoner. Has this happened to anyone else? Strange.
Beautiful music and playing.
Flowin nicely ....hell yeah.
Reminds me of Simon n Garfukel. Then its starts rockin.
Good right from the start. Nice wash of synths in there. Very nice vocal as well.

Great writing and lyrics.
