I always liked this traditional song based on the old folk tune, 'Rueben's Train'. so I decided to give a go. It was recorded a couple of years ago As usual more time spent mixing than recording.
At the time I was suffering from some sort of bug…
All around great song. Vocals are great and the harmonica is awesome too. Yet another awesome artist I found out about. Thanks for sharing this wonderful song!!!

Jamie is one of the very first "Off the cuff" songs I wrote. What ever popped into my head at the time. It sat around for many years before I finally decided to record it. Recorded in Jan 08.

This great old (Public Domain) song by Stephen Foster which I just do and has nothing to do with my current state of life but may not be true for others.
I do this song in a most unusual way. That is to say I changed the melody of the verses…
got this off of wikipedia.org
"Hard Times Come Again No More" is a popular song written by Stephen C. Foster during 1854. Well-known and popular in its day, both in America and Europe,
THANKS for this song. I love the story behind it.
Love the feel of this one. You can hear the sincerity of emotions in the vocals. Always think it's cool when someone can make you feel the song...like a good novelist can pull you into the story.
One of my fav songs. Didn't they use this in the Twilight Movie with Dan Akroyd? He was the ambulance driver in the beginning I think? hehe. Nicely done mate.
I have not been able to do much lately because of rebuilding our house which had been in a major flood. The flood was in June 08 and we are just getting back in! Anyway I should be doing more soon.
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
A coop between me and another alonetoner and a Chill productions member, Captain Kirk. Original melodic idea and lyrics by me, guitar, piano, final mix, final composition and mastering by Kirk and the beautiful singing is done by his wife…
A morning storm recorded in the courtyard and a musical motif written in the evening. combined time working-- 45 minutes, interrupted by a phone call from the parents to see if I was still alive.
A cover of Iron Angel Forge's song from his 2009 RPM Challenge album, Not Forsaken. He is here at alonetone under the name IronAngel.
I haven't told him yet, though, so it's a surprise ;~)
Hey! Thanks for the visit!
Doug
I'm feeling new.
I'm seeing you.
I know right from my soul.
I don't need malady, baby, in my heart.
Rolling around.
Rolling ground, moving around the bend.
Is it true?
I'm in this mood.
It's coming from my…
their aren't many things that take "it puts me to sleep" as a complement. i think this song takes it wonderfully.
thanks jason for making music and letting me give it a try.
1st of 10 "Off the cuff" songs I wrote just before the great flood.
I haven't really had a chance to work on any but this one. This is different than the rest of them. All I did was turn on a drum machine and played and sang what ever popped into…
i think this is fairly self-explanitory...it was inspired by a line in The Brothers Karamazov, which went on to examining myself and my tendencies as a sinner.
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).
Old Conor Higgins…
For my friend and coworker, because he certainly deserves it.
This song is friends with [song for themcgruff](http://alonetone.com/sudara/tracks/song-for-themcgruff)
This is my 12 hour song (written, recorded, mixed, mastered) ... I pined away all day at it while a storm kept me company.
instrumentation:
a man lost his house and sold me his fretless bass for next to nothing. a family friend gave me…
Written today.
recorded on an iMac with the internal mic and no headphones (!) so it's probably going to be muddy as hell, but that feels about right for now.
LYRIC:
Fill up the glass, Bartender
Ply your art
Quench the fire in here, now…
Another of the three songfight inspired titles. Painted Tense (the title) actually came from a band name generator website. I thought it might make a good song title so I submitted it to the RPM HQ person doing the name-from-a-hat picking. I would…

All around great song. Vocals are great and the harmonica is awesome too. Yet another awesome artist I found out about. Thanks for sharing this wonderful song!!!
An old favourite if mine, given the wonderful Gilbert treatment.
Love your buggy voice - sounds wonderfully velvety and mournful.
Really nice job!. I always liked this song as well
Really nice song! Well done!
Ohhh, ahhh! Lovely lyrics.
Cute song, the harmonica works well.
I like this version, even better than the CCR take. Always makes me think of that late night rock show in 70's of the same name.
A real feel good number!
Great old song I haven't heard in years. Thanks!
Lovely song! Well done!

Why not both ways? :) This way is certainly good.
Sitting here, 6.45, foot tapping, big smile on face. Welcome back Gilbert. Enjoy your new home.
Such a restrained, controlled vocal. Lovely music and lyrics too.
You can shine it on me anytam! love the song and great vocal.
Very tender. Lovely tune!

A master no doubt!
Glorious Music indeed!
Great stuff here! Love those pipes.
Very nice! Beautiful!!
great capture of the storm and appropriate muse for the occasion.
lush and beautiful! 30 min to upload? Fantastic!
Very funny Bethan! Sorry someone sneaked in before you but thanks for asking.
Great cover. Love it Stu.
I dig the loose style!!
Nice tune! I like the way it changes half way through. I would try to do the spacial thing all the way through.
Thanks Johnny, glad you liked it.
very nice! I like the minimalist treatment. Not crazy 'bout all the lyrics but that's just personal opinion. Great mix and build-up.
Excellent!
You already know I really like this!
Typical great stuff by Mr Gumbo
Very nice, clear and beautiful!!
Pine Away very nice. Some great stuff happening here.
Great voice and production.
Stu. Great song! Wahoo!!!
Gary I like your song and the only I would change would be to mellow out the vocal track. It's a bit loud in the mix. Otherwise great j0b
