"There Are More Important Things in Life Than Living"
dedicated to Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick
There are pleasures we shall never meet again
as we drop our lovers…
Give Me a Call
Did I say something wrong
Did I let you down
Do you think of me when no ones around
Because I think of you
And I think a lot
Of everything we had and what we’ve still got
You know you could call
Or I could too
But everything…
Give Me a Call
Did I say something wrong
Did I let you down
Do you think of me when no ones around
Because I think of you
And I think a lot
Of everything we had and what we’ve still got
You know you could call
Or I could too
But everything…
A little birthday uke ditty, bookended by two improvs
So this is year 61
Made it this far
Let’s have some fun
Keep looking forward don’t look back
Time has a way of keeping track
Of joy and pain
We all live for love
Sun or rain
This…

Hello Little One
Hello little one
Glad I ran into you
Are you some kinda freak
Or did you escape from a zoo?
Ears like a fox, look like a dog
About as much hair as you'd…

Lord Jestocost
She’s a cat and she’s a girl
But she’s not equal in this world
I am lord of all I see

First in a planned series of American traditional folk tunes presented as simple guitar instrumentals.
Here's the lyrics if you want to sing along:
Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Oh, where have you been, Charming Billy?

The song...how it should be and will remain except needs better mixing and mastering. This is what it will sound like on the album just about. Which is going to be titled "Cryptical Condition".
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode

The Hentai track in the middle reminds me of Miles Davis in his electric period, without the horn. I meant to mention that in the program but forgot...thanks HIO
Well, it's like I went down town last night to see Guthrie playing with Ray and I came home with a song.
NOBODY KNOW ME IN TOWN ANY MORE Capo @ 1 in G
There’s a bird in the gutter that’s so sound asleep
He can’t hear the music that’s sweeping…

Enjoying a few tracks on this site with Indian flavor lately. My brothers legs were so red from slapping them to get the perc sounds in this track, I had to laugh, That alone was worth doing the song ;)
Enjoy # 92

Another slice of Reaktor based weirdness from the particle collider ensemble I am tentatively naming TMA-2.
You can't tell from how it sounds I guess but the latest development is that particle energy now governs velocity, i.e. more energetic…
Thanks to Sister Savage for helping us debut our new project. As busy as she is, Sister managed a bit of time and some great Jovian vox for us.
This piece or art is unique, sublime, and psychedelic.

well I thiiink it was one of the maaaany times in which we would go down to the pMundo beach by the river build a fire, burn one (a couple) down and jam out loud, where I came up with this beautiful chord progression. It was then about a week…

Great duet. Nice California style folk.
Sweet tone. A Les Paul?
This is pretty twisted stuff, but I like it. Deserves more listens.
ZZTop called. They want their car back! :0D
Stunning fingerstyle. Hope you come out of recording hibernation soon.
Yeah, Kirk. Bill has a mindlink with his octave pedal. He's such a badass too.
Brill. Wished it was longer.
That's cool. Who played sax?
Yes she do. LMAO!
@NebulonicAlchemy Using Logic express. With all the good feedback, thinking about doing another, maybe in the fall. Thanks!

You're a star to many, JMT, know it or not. But I know that feeling ...
Thanks, yawl. I am fortunate to have many talented friends, at alonetone, and in the "real" world.
Enjoyed that, indeed.
You should develop some iPhone/Pod apps like this. Cool.
Finally someone wrote a song in the Elvish language (no, not Elvis!). I've always suspected Sister Savage is really Arwen.
Nice nice very nice!
Thanks for commenting. I missed these when they first came thru, good songwriting and arrangements. Keep on!
New Colin! Let's party! Great song, great harp break.
THis is great! Love the ebow.
