For 2011 RPM Challenge album John the Resonator
A Sword and Sorcery parody. With Elvis.
Daughter Brit sang the vocal in the middle part.
Elvis was the mountain king
Who ruled the land of El-Karyaang
His wife Priscilla lady fair
Was taken…
I’m going down
To the ground
Half a step
Then look around
I make an unsettling sound
Devil in the details
Music is the thing
The flatted fifth
Makes a diabolic ring
I’m going down
To the ground
Half a step
Then look around
I make an unsettling sound
Devil in the details
Music is the thing
The flatted fifth
Makes a diabolic ring
Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how
If there was one
How could he allow
What evil has been done…
Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how
If there was one
How could he allow
What evil has been done…
Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how
If there was one
How could he allow
What evil has been done…
A quick little tune written in appreciation of a small expression of contentedness.
I can see in that little smile
You're living for the moment
Every once in a little while I catch it
No one else could match it
You're more than meets the eye

What if Bo Peep were a bit of a b*tch? If I knew her when she was like that, I might write a song like this.
(c) 2012 T.A.Beckett
Hey, Bo.
Where did they all go?
Hey Bo.
What do you know?
Maybe I could help you
In your quest.
Maybe I could…
This was written at a time when things weren't going so well for me. This will be my last upload until after the RPM Challenge.
The jeans are worn but they're clean.
The shirt is frayed at the elbows.
The shoes are dull, lost their sheen…
And with this track, the album is finished. Except for the uber-track to encompass all tracks, which we'll release here as a single as soon as we write it. Enjoy!
One of two versions of Keith Landry's great song.
Listen to the original [here](http://alonetone.com/keithlandryacoustic/tracks/as-the-train-rolls-through)
It began as a poem, until two separate friends inquired randomly how the song sounded... I replied, "What song?" and they laughed... So I went back to the studio and this came out... Enjoy!

Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.

When I was a music major one of my friends had a family which ran a funeral home - a well paid profession seeing that they had several cars, maids and butlers - and spent a few nights there. (We tended to stay up to the early am debating…
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Ooh yeah! Love it
Super scary…. What happens if we play it backwards like the White Album?
You’re scaring me man. That’s some evil rock and roll there. I love it!
Acoustic guitar slaps and pops with loopy loops wow. :) BW
Now that is pretty classy and cool ..... and I'm checking out that tuning ... mind you !?!? ....
This is gorgeous!
This is a tasty bit of music. I love those acoustic instrumental sounds.
Good clean sound acoustic electric semi-classical with a touch of Layla at the end. BW :)
Dark and light at the same time!
Wow
Very good sounds :) BW
Is good like a tubular bells thing. :)
Loving that dirty tone
Just awesome!
Wow, play that heavy metal Kavin.

Comments made by kavin.
New to me. Great melody, Keith.
Nice dark ambient mash Roger.
CooL, ER. Ian Drury sings nursery rhymes!
Great octave guitar riff at 3 minutes.
Really nice. Need to check the rest of the album
I like em both!
Great vocal. Nice meditative drone. Like the video too.
Industrial edge to this one. And that fat ass bass!
Big drums and slide guitar. Love it.
Dayum. Seriously good soundtrack for something awesome.
Seriously? An electronic classical RPM album? This is great!
Have you been listening to Miles' Kind of Blue? I like this.
Very cool, Kirk. More of that!
Thanks Richard, I'd like to hear your Jesu variation too!
One of the most interesting things I've heard here in a while. Like how it starts out slow and whips into a frenzy.
Nice spooky texture. I interviewed for a job at a funeral home once but opted for the hospital across the street.
Hah! Toldja!
Been browsing the (many!) tracks on your album and like this one. I love my Synthstation/iPhone/iPod/music apps!
Yaya! Chapman stick on alonetone! And so well played too.
Nice stuff! Trey Gunn comes to mind.
