Made it through another year
Still don’t know why I’m here
Make some music drink some beer
Sounds alright to me
Loved ones leave
Friends come then go
Everything can change so quick
Don’t let the bullshit bring you down
Just enjoy this…

RPM day 2
Now I ain’t no groundhog baby
I can barely see my shoes
If I see a shadow it’s cos I’ve got the blues
If you want a weather forecast
I suggest that you watch the news
But I tell you something I can predict
There will be 6 more…
RPMers I salute you
Ice ice everywhere like a skating rink
I don’t wanna go nowhere
I don’t wanna think
I’ll just stay inside press record and sing
RPM is here
it’s 2am what else to do
Make up rhymes strum a chord
Find a good groove…
Song 3 for the RPM Challenge
Fly away
Leave it now
You’re time has come
Earn that beautiful reward
Time is cruel
It is never kind
We can only hope to find
Some love and joy
For awhile when we’re here
Years marched by
Through…
RPMers I salute you
Ice ice everywhere like a skating rink

The faucet drips the wind don’t blow
The sun won’t set the day is long
When I’m away and you’re not here
The time is slow because love is gone
Shadows creep across the lawn
The day won’t end to bring the dawn
I’m not here my thoughts they…

Great Texas Blues song.I like the fact that a classic blues tune like this was written right here in East Texas.These songs are truly part of the history of this area, trains still run the tracks, but not nearly as important nowadays to the people…
A remix. I originally mixed this using laptop speakers because I was away from home. Took the drums down and brought the ipod sounds up. Thinking of doing an album of this stuff for RPM. Thanks for yer comments!
This is a rough mix of a song I have been working on. It needs the vocal re doing when I get rid of my cold and there is still a verse or two to write. the final mix is now up on site. called REPO MAN (final mix) check it out
Repo man knocking…
Another loop - not recorded that well and don't have the time to do much with it, but here it is none the less. The title more or less is a reflection on my life at the moment. Using the same junk I always do...
All guitars by my good friend Chris Mitchell. I had a chance to record this while I was in Dallas this past Summer. This is a companion piece to my song Secrets from the "Of Sound Mind" album, my RPM 2009 entry.
This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)
Oh... by the way... acl is finally waking from a very deep slumber…
"santa" and her elves used to live across the street, thankfully gone now, they must have moved to Fla! I would like some zztop tapes for Christmas....

This track is off of the third CD. This is an improv recorded one afternoon in my basement recording studio. Recorded with my Huss and Dalton MJC in standard tuning.
This track is off the third CD. It reminds me of the feeling that one has when having to do something that we'd rather not do. Recorded with my Godall 12 in standard tuning.
I sent the tracks for this tune to a friend of mine who owns a professional studio. I gave him no instructions on how to mix it, as I wanted someone else's take on the music. He created a very dry, intimate mix, focusing more on the acoustic guitars…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
That's very good gem of a song ...
This sure tells it like it is! Great lyrics. A real keeper!!
Very intense and meditative at the same time. Great!
that is great....yup depressing, true, ....but you made music!
Hey that is awesome (and hilarious too)! Great groove and love the lyrics!! (Fellow RPMer)
This is a very touching song. Well done! :) BW
right from the start it's a catchy groove.
too cool Kavin.
I think I've been here before. :) Love it man.
A refreshingly clever blues tune, but kind of depressing too. :) BW
Good slide song. On the verge of greatness. :) BW
Kind of a nice flowing Asian flavor on this one. :) BW
wow love this --- yeah record everything --- that is a must- :)
Not just good but good for ya too :) BW
"oOoHhHmMm" m'hmm ...wild , yeah!
Super Duper almost country! Sounds kind of familiar. JK LOL :) BW
That's a good thing. Bass players are often overlooked. it's a talent on it's own. Good job. I play lots of instruments but always loved bass.
That was fantastic ! Thanks for pointing it out.
Super Duper! Sounds kind of Pink Floyd style. :) BW
Nice

Like this one alot, but ended abruptly?
This is very cool.
Lovely. Great start for the new year.
@ dougsparling, apps used: Tongue Drum, Ellatron lite (mellatron), Bebot (theremin sound). I think all were free except bebot.
Nice to see your return to this form, Doug. Love it.
Merry Christmas to Sudara and all my friends here at alonetone. Peace be unto you and all your loved ones.
Very nice. Makes me wanna get my @ss in gear and get serious about writing lyrics again.
I'm always a sucker for pretty intertwining guitar lines!
"santa" and her elves used to live across the street, thankfully gone now, they must have moved to Fla! I would like some zztop tapes for Christmas....
"grinch's up a face"...love it!
Great tunes!
At first I thought "are you kidding?" then there was the suspense of waiting for something else to happen...
Great performance and sound.
Yeah! This sounds like it could have been on Clapton's first solo album.
Nice playing. Inspiring!
Great stuff Howard. Thanks for uploading these 3 albums. Wonderful listening for all us pickers.
Wow Rick, I guess I missed this when you put it up! That was great fun, thanks. The koto sound was done with an iPod Touch app, by the way.
Wonderful remix, I like the guitars up front on this one. An alonetone guitar favorite, for me.
