This was the original version I recorded before I completely overhauled it (see version on "It takes a village album ). I wasnt crazy about it but hell I put time into it and completed it so why not post it up.

The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
Oh yeah! :)
You were made to do this stuff... Now you gotta figure out how to incorporate this into the original songwriting... (don't ask me how - I can't do it either!!! lol)
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.
Lets dig up an old one. In another time & space had to come up with a song with the line 'Solar Radiation and a New Pair of Boots' in it. I came up with this little ditty... Blame Steve Krell !!!!!!
Well last night just as i was of to bed , there was a knock on the door of the cellar and it was John & George they had come for a sess and i mean who was i to deny them…..they'd heard of the Beatle fest from Elvis…he could never keep quiet…
Tis a true story about a friend, I was fascinated by the concept of friends sharing one black "funeral" dress passing it along like it was a hip handbag

Here's our new collab just in time for the American Elections.......i'm thinking of emigrating cause i want the power...is there still time .....Vote Reg
As a surprise for the missus (she gets out of hospital tomorrow after a 9 week stay) I've revamped a little ditty I wrote for her. I thought I'd put an Elvis slant on it including the ridiculous club style ending. I also slipped a bit of a British…
I need an electric geeetar. My weary old Crafter electroacoustic picks up every touch. 'Scuse the solo, I'm only a strummer..
Anyway, the song. Clogging up my brain, had to get it out. Some lasses don't know what they look like, and some lads…
A song for a wet day in Sheffield Thanks Johnny.......another one for the Zep album.........I will have to sort out that first verse..........but i hope you enjoy..........
Bob got in the act on this one and we had Elvis on Keys..Hope you enjoy......

Night after night i sit in the dark and i’m thinking

Another lyrically-challenged collaboration with jip1965, who sent me a guitar, bongo, percussion track with a recorder playing named, simply, 'Love'.

Can picture you catching walleye and crappie, havin a shore lunch and singin some tunes, hey!
Alrighty. This is a good one.
Turned it into a swirling dervish! Actually pretty damn cool!
Happy I listened now :)
Its been awhile since I listened to your tunes. Great song here again! Refreshingly different than anything I have heard recently.
Nice tune. I like the story with a bit of humor.
Has a very cool Alice Cooper Vibe. Good song!
Really good! Very Righteous Bros time period. Love the vocals! Damn.
That is awesome! Ha! Love the operatic refrain:)
Its has a Clapton vibe and that intro is really hip. Nice tune.
Always have a twist on these covers that are fun.
That melody has to be one of the best ever written. Nice rendition)
Theatrical rendition...had me smiling all the way thru!
Oh yeah going to the big Ragu festival on this one! Jah Man!
Beautiful music. No need for lyrics here. Very mystical ambience going on.
Never heard the original but this will do just fine. Nice intimate recording.
I totally enjoyed that! Really nice and smooth harmonies.
Damn....nice collab guys! Cool production.
Okay. This is the remixed version kids! Thnx for listening:)
I revised the mix a tad bit. I will repost shortly. Thnx for the props!
