You'll tell me when you're ready.
DON’T WORRY ‘BOUT THAT RIGHT NOW
Where have you been is all they’ve been asking
Where are you going is what I’d like to know
Why are you running when nobody’s chasing?
What are you hiding? What can’t…
Follow the arc through the sky
Hard to judge how high
Only steel in your spine
Pretend you can fly
For a moment in time
Only you and the sun
Trying to catch the other one
A free man's work is never done
It's just begun
Turn your head…
As outraged as I've been over the past week, when I sat down to write about it, all I could think was, "How can I get through to someone?" This is the result.

A crazy little song written while considering Ed Robertson's plane crash from a few years back, "Any Landing" is given much legitimacy by Ashley's incredible voice and Kavin Allenson's (Kavin S. Acoustic Church) guitar.

What a beauty-full song, Keith! How wonderful if we could ALL "lay low" at Christmas and simply appreciate one another's presence and love! Thank you for gifting us with your lyrics and melodic sounds! Your is a true "Christmas Heart"!

I've watched 'em all fall since September
If I could, I'd be selling the leaves
We've been making ends meet on a shoestring

Wow! This song just really touched me deeply. What a beautiful song... so raw but so lovely and warm too.
All my best to you this holiday time. I hope the best for you and wish that the hope you express here is infectious to more than just me.

Gather 'round the bonfire for some sh*t-kicking New England bluegrass, boys and girls! Feel free to sing along!

This is fantastic! I didn't realize GarageBand had a wide verity of samples. Then again, I've never worked in the program. I think I need to educate myself in it.
Up with the sunrise
My new morning routine
Late last night with the fireflies
One more dimly-lit scene
Need to trade in these old eyes
Hard to tell red from green
Pull the visor down tight
And tie up the chain
Let's ride blind in the…
The finished product! Oldest daughter shines!
We don't always see eye to eye
And there are some days I don't know how we get by
We spend so much time caught in the race
Gotta slow down the pace
When did the river get so wide
All I thought…

Turn your head…
Take me where I've never been
Give me bad instructions once again
Strap me in and watch me fly
Sit back, take bets on just how long until I die
Just me against the world
Impressing all the pretty girls
I'll do impressions standing on my…
I've been living like a poor man
Lying on my back day after day
Waking up wearing the same old clothes once again
The vultures and vampires won't go away
They bring me just enough to stay alive
The stuff you only eat when there's no other…
How many ways can you get yourself killed?
How many ways can you die?
So many ways if you have a strong will
A will so much stronger than I
Put rocks in your shoes and go jump in a lake
Go walking 'round barefoot with venomous snakes

Sometimes you need to stay up late to try to force yourself to dream.
When I wrote this song (and started singing it a bit), I knew that my voice could never give it what it needed... So I turned it over to one Sister Savage... And she did…
My contribution to the Angie Fights Crime album "Sunny, Sorta..." AFC wrote the lyrics and chords, then gave me free reign to do what I wanted from there.
I tried some very out of character things with the guitar. I think they worked…
I have loopitus. it's contagious so be careful.
I'm having fun with it. Like puking in the toilet and pretending I'm driving a school bus.
It's fun.......
I have dreams of playing this well... No seriously... Just the other night I was playing smooth like this (and sadly awoke to find I am still just a mere mortal). Man, I hope this pre-sets me for some good REM sleep tonight.
Great track, Kavin!
This tune came about by total chance.
I recorded the Backing track during a spare half an hour one night this week ... Just a Noodle...
Met up with Aaron today by total chance and he was up for recording a vocal on it.
He Free-styled the…
Man, you do have some cool neighbors. LOVE Wyen's backing vocals... Perfect counterpoint to the perfect guitar and edgy lead vocal. Very well done, my friend!
So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.
YOU NEED…
Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I
Ever…
Well, screw the metronome, damn the torpedoes, and grab a capo!
Sometimes the best versions are the ones played fast and loose. Hope you enjoy this song adapted from one of my all-time favorite poems (I'm a bit biased since my dad wrote it…
Back to basics here. recorded with the Yeti mic.
Ramblin' round your city,ramblin' round your town
I never see a friend I know
As I go ramblin' round boys
As I go ramblin' round
My sweetheart and my parents I left in my old hometown…
...And this might be the best of the lot. Man, what a great sound! Six songs uploaded are simply not enough from you! I'll be looking out for more.
Keep writing and playing. You've picked up a fan here in NY.
Man, how have I missed out on this stuff these last couple of months... Good thing I randomly picked a point on the alonetone map to see who's in the state... To think of what I would have missed out on!

Very nice! Well done sir

Great song and sentiment. We're all grieveing the demise of the American democracy.
I love the lyrics to this song. w;)

Great song Keith, simple and beautiful. ...and congrats on another RPM finish!!

My fave from the album. Your voice fits nicely in this key. w;)
I love this!!! w;)
Another nice track, Keith. w;)
Very nice. w;)
"How many ways can you get yourself killed?" Consult The Darwin Awards. Seriously, this is very thought provoking. w;)

Tess voice is just too got not to fave it myself.
Damn, this is excellent. This quick improv of yours is simply perfect.
Ha! First one in on this nugget of goodness!
Excellent funky foot-chase scene track! I already feel the illness setting in. "It's fun?" Understatement... Great track.
I have dreams of playing this well... No seriously... Just the other night I was playing smooth like this (and sadly awoke to find I am still just a mere mortal). Man, I hope this pre-sets me for some good REM sleep tonight. Great track, Kavin!
Ha! First one in!
Solid track... This should show up in an indie film soundtrack. Somehow smooth and edgy all rolled into one. Excellent arrangement and performance.
Great arrangement... Very clean and smooth.
Here's another nugget... What a great voice!... And so well played!
Instant fave... How have I missed this song for so long? Off to see what other goodness you have here at Alonetone.
Man, you do have some cool neighbors. LOVE Wyen's backing vocals... Perfect counterpoint to the perfect guitar and edgy lead vocal. Very well done, my friend!
Thanks Rob! Glad you like the stuff... The new CD is currently in the works!
Just messing with some simple added arrangement... It'll probably need some volume work with the extra guitar tracks, but I kinda like the additions.
Yeah I faved it... I reserve the right!... My dad wrote it... It's my favorite poem of his!
Great track... As always!
Woody Guthrie AND Kavin... One hell of a nice recipe for music.
Ah, good to see another upload! I hope you continue to dip into the old catalog of tunes... An oldie but goodie, this one.
...And this might be the best of the lot. Man, what a great sound! Six songs uploaded are simply not enough from you! I'll be looking out for more. Keep writing and playing. You've picked up a fan here in NY.
Radio ready sound. Damn... I guess all of strawbfan's tracks are going to be this good.
