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 was from about 4 yrs ago thru a Guitar Center King of the blues online collaboration. I was using Guitar Rig Jimi Hendrix Octavia on this.....pretty hairy sound right there.
In my late teens I was in a hard rock band and this was one of our songs. This recording is not the band but myself doing all the instruments and vocals. Our singer Kevin wrote the lyrics but I forgot some of the lines and adlibbed a bit of it…

This is a lil tune I had written over fifteen years ago. It is one of my favorite progressions and I figure in the near future to record a full band arrangement with vocals. This is just a ruff take working out a melody over the changes.
I always fancied having a man about the house who would sit on the sofa with his feet on the coffee table playing guitar sweetly, while I get on with whatever. This is glorious!
A bit of comic relief is good when you have some writers block. I had he song mapped out years before I recorded it. I need to record its companion "Won't you please squeeze my udder Farmer Joe?".

Ah, I remember this kinda stuff. Don't listen to it much at all nowadays, but it's nice to hear every now and then. This reminds me of "Ultimate Sin" period Ozzy - can't remember who the guitarist on that is (probably someone really famous in the guitar world!).
And Ronnie James Dio - WHAT a voice that guy had...
I'm with captgene on this one - "Rocks"

Liked this very much. If I might make an observation, your songs sound like there is, or should be, a vocal track running through them. I don't know if you did vocals or have lyrics for these, but I found myself adding my own melody and finding my own lyrics to go with the music.

Nice take on that old tune.
I used stand in front of one of those red buckets for the Salvation Army with a few of my friends. This was my favorite song to sing and play.
I heard Vaisvil's Track earlier and had a bit of time so i thought i'd add a vocal....so thanks Chris for letting me play.........

"No Need"
Music and Lyrics by OsCKilO 2013
I had never seen a place so cold...
Glad I don't live there any more.
Happy that I like the simple life...
Bright lights.
Sun and Moon.
Any Star that lead away from you.
Now I move on, not moved…
Waiting for silence though the noise still consumes my ears
More and more violence waging war for the selected few
'CAUSE you can't take away all those profits
For THE few that have more than they can use
So crawl around stick your head in the…
Just me and my acoustic.
I've just learned how to record both at the same time.
I didn't know this song the day before this recording.
It was done in one take, with dodgy guitar playing, wrong lyrics and sore throat :)
This is one that I started with a synth progression and over the week it grew....
Everything is in there but the kitchen sink I think. Used midi for GB synth sounds, choirs, bass, Kontakt strings and organ, piano,horns, sax lab for sax, godin…
Comments on JR James's stuff
Great sounds.
Ooo, this is nice! By the way, welcome to Alonetone! Bethan
Ha, you make a great band! You don't need one! Well played!
Oh, my word!
I always fancied having a man about the house who would sit on the sofa with his feet on the coffee table playing guitar sweetly, while I get on with whatever. This is glorious!
The title made me come, the awesomeness made me stay!
Oh sweet man! It does sound like Dio-esque, and that's awesome to me.
Spanish style is right. Good job! =) And what a cool voice.
Oh goodness, this is really nice. Relaxing and sweet-sounding.
Oh this is beautiful listening. Might just be working out changes and melody, but it stands as it is. Very relaxing.
Listened to several selections and liked what I heard. Sometimes your guitar work reminds me of one of my faves: Robin Trower. Well done. ER
I am not sure who played on that album....thats a good google search for later....he has had so many. Ozzy is like the pimp of guitar players...lol!
*WOW* That is some intense playing! Fun to listen to.

Short and sweet... but what a tone! Made me think of Jack Black in School of Rock - I think this one qualifies as a "face-melting solo" lol
Very cool tune.
Rocks.
Cool tone.
