Eidolon come to me
My love left like ash on the wind
Please my Eidolon visit me
Though I can't touch you
But I can see
You're golden hair turn grey
All sweet things must end
My sweet Eidolon
Don’t let tequila do the talkin
Well there’s trouble in paradise again
I thought that you were cheatin
I wanted to talk to you
So I scheduled a meetin
But when I started to sqwak
You turned around and walked
But you know I just can…
Nice EP. Cool progressions well picked and strummed ... nice timbres. I esp. like the Latin song around halfway and the psychedelic one around 3/4 mark. Thanks for the trip

One more instrumental before I move on to the vocals...
I came up with this riff one hazy night when I was 19. I'm in my 30s now, and rather more sober, but I still like playing this. It felt good to finally flesh it out.
“While I Wait”: (Richard Hardrick)
I hear my steps from echoes
down in the street of time
van años en lo incierto
outside the shadow line
Silence in an empty sky
while I wait
God has not revealed yet
the truth of signs outside…
#4 for the RPM Challenge.
Have you heard this melody before? This is one of those where I wonder if I've unconsciously "borrowed" something from someone. Translation: the Fly Boat, like the tourist boats that ply the river Seine and their bright…
1pm on Sunday. I'm not back in work until Tuesday. We've just had a delicious roast dinner that I cooked, and the glass of wine we had with it is helping it go down. As a crisp February sun twinkles through the window I realise that for the first…
I was asked to come up with some gritty microtonal guitar. This is an out-take from that session.
17 Indulgences is a solo guitar piece in 17 edo featuring acoustic feedback, echo and a bluesy sort of point of view but does wander here and…
Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
Sometimes society gets wrapped up in their own routine, failing to notice the sheer beauty that surrounds them on a daily basis, until a moment of chance changes everything.
Some reflections after recording this song:
1. Mic positioning for a live take can drive you crazy
2. The lowest note I can comfortably sing is an A
3. A tortured soul can somehow write an amazing love song
4. I still have much to learn

Depeche Mode lite
I was going to hire Meatloaf for the ending but it turns out he will NOT work for pancakes... which is what I had heard.
This is one of the prime examples of (early on) being WAY more ambitious than what my ability…
You're right it is really good. That drum track is a little overwhelming in the mix at first tho. I like the guitars, stream of conciousness lyrics, Lennon-like vocal and the Miles Davis title check.
OCCUPY 0112
It's a highland I call my land
It's an island in the sun
No matter how you measure it
It's always number one
If I had a house to occupy
I'd occupy my wish
But to have a house to occupy
I must defy the rich
We buy the…
This song was inspired by a long walk....
Lyrics:
Down by the river, down by the shore we go
The moon above cast a beautiful glow
We walked around talking through the night
I can’t help but think how it felt right
Hey Constance, don’t you feel…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
I've not heard this voice before. Very nice.
Some slick licks!
could be an outtake fro a Hendrix album very cool, way too short :-) KC
Cool lyrics. Down home combo sound. What fun! Smart message. Sober up before you talk
Nice EP. Cool progressions well picked and strummed ... nice timbres. I esp. like the Latin song around halfway and the psychedelic one around 3/4 mark. Thanks for the trip
I am enjoying listening to this as I paint. Each atmosphere created is inspiring different moods.
Great picking. Cool progressions. Nicely recorded. :)
NIce - some real playing on alonetone.
I agree
Guitar sounds great!
such clean playing!~
great lyrics!
There are SOOOOO many versions of this song. They just get funnier.
The mess ups and the laughter at the end are always my favorite parts. Nic collab guys, beautiful song
You too, a terrible song & made it wonderful. w;)
I commented on several tracks before I realized I wasn’t logged in. Sorry! w:)
How many coyotes were there?
Well, now I know what the animals are on the previous track. This is a beauty.
I really like this. What are the animals at the beginning of the track?
other times it can be a sweet deal

Played like a real Texas guitar slinger!
Thanks for the comments C, and welcome to the club! Keep on with the great songs!
Nice proggy/metal vibe going on here Rick.
Thanks MTC! I'm relieved!
Welcome to Alonetone Daniel! Pick on!
Wonderful! Glad you are back!
Sweet acoustic tone!
Yesh! Definitely a candidate for the IF RPM mash album.
Liking the drone and general guitar mayhem.
Supergreat. That's one tight band.
This makes me feel sad. That's a good thing.
Nice ambient and great album. I came to IA through his novels, not so much his short stories. One of the SF masters indeed!
You're on a roll with these JT covers. Wond'ring Aloud next maybe?
Great versh. I'd like more details on the mic placement. Are you just using one mic? More is better when recording acoustic.
You're right it is really good. That drum track is a little overwhelming in the mix at first tho. I like the guitars, stream of conciousness lyrics, Lennon-like vocal and the Miles Davis title check.
Picturing JMT in a kilt.
Very nice indeed!
Like the crystal acoustic tone and space there.
Your experiments with pitch/tuning always fascinate.
Great song and delivery. I could imagine Van the Man doing this one.
