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…
The inspiration for this year's album. I wanted to make a track that would make both Neil Degrasse Tyson and Pete Seeger happy...

All right, so one of those silly songs needed to find its way onto the album. In an effort to teach the students on my middle school team about rhythm in poetry, I wrote this little bit of foolishness about a fictional character (so yes, you…

Yes, it makes you think. I really like the "Landry girls". Sounds like a clarinet and a flute, but I might be wrong. Whatever it is, it's fun to hear the next generation.

Well this is my kind o' song. Ive been in astronomy for 5 years now and I do see the whole Earth as my home .
Nicely done and Hello to Pete Seeger who now knows the real story

One of the first songs I ever wrote... When we bought our first house, we had a nice big back yard on a 1/3 acre lot... With the train tracks just on the other side of the back fence.

Recorded when we weren't sure how close to the 35-minute mark we were getting for the RPM Challenge... And every second counts.
Besides, we didn't have any "woos" on the album. And woos always make an album better

Great track right from the opening notes. Love the arrangement (that ringing mandolin is perfectly used). A bit more attention to cleanly-hit vocals for the higher notes would have this song radio-ready. GREAT song.
For Someone extremely special.
And for those that it might help.
Thanks to Dave Purssord for Playing Lead for me.
Thanks to St Mary’s for allowing me to record this live in the Church.
And Thanks to all you all here.
Peace

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…
I needed a place to host a work in progress where it wouldn't be obvious so you might have found a secret mix!!!
So that 4 minute song with the slide guitar that no-one listens to is gone ;-)
This weekend I was thinking about artists that I used to enjoy listening to in highschool. Toad the Wet Sprocket came to mind, and I thought it would be fun to cover one of their songs. I've always liked "Pray Your Gods" - even though the chorus…

When I sent this song off to Jim, he sent back tracks for a second rhythm guitar, lead guitar, and drums. Bass soon followed, and Kavin's slide dropped in nicely. Just thought I'd let y'all have a listen to what came back to me…
My first acrostic prompt, requiring the word "Hope" to be spelled out by the first letter of the lines. Found in the chorus:
Hands don't fail me now
Oh, just a little tighter
Please hold on, hold on to

Beautiful :-)
Great Vocal
Oh wow...that voice...
Great song!
How did I miss this gem? Love it! w;-)
Great job ladies :smiley_cat:
A whole bucket of awesomeness. Excellent performance on the horns and woodwinds.
It's actually a flute (from the 14-yr old), an alto sax (from the 12-year old), and a clarinet (from the 10-year old). And thanks for listening!

LOVE that signature Kavin slide!
Damn. How have I missed this playlist for so long?
Faved at 0:08. Perfectly mellow guitar work, with every string perfectly in place.
Outstanding songwriting, performing, and arrangement once again.

I definitely need to return to this playlist when I have the time.
I need to do more writing and recording in churches. This is outstanding, T.
Man, how have I missed out on this track for three years? Outstanding guitar work, Colin.
Oh, and this is just amazing.
This is sooooooo good. Quick thanks to Kavin for bringing my attention back to this Kirk Lynch masterpiece.
Faved INSTANTLY!
Man, I wish I knew how to ramble so well without ever having a note out of place. Beautiful track!
GREAT track!
For Jim's mix (and some drums by Norm (how many hands does that guy have?!?!) head on over here: http://alonetone.com/mtcband/tracks/over-the-embers
Verrrrrrry cool!
Damn, I wish I could paint pictures like this.
Love the rough chunkiness of the guitar counterpointed by the sweet harmonies and outstanding lyrics (both of which are ALWAYS amazing).
Ha! First one in! Keep posting these great tracks from past years!
Great song... Especially the bridge... Damn, I love that voice.
Wow. What a sound. T, this is brilliant.
