One of my personal favorite recordings from the 52 song MYTHOPOETICA demo collection, even though there’s a sound quality issue (the bass had a bit of a buzz). This was my first time using a wammy bar – I liked it!

HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…

This is the bonus track for "The Best of GEM" playlist.
APATHY AND GREED
Apathy and greed is in the human seed
"I need more, to Hell with you" we say so well
How we live and play to get us through the day
Til we hear the bell that summons…

Trippy...but weirdly affecting. I found that circular blend of sound very moving. Tried to explain it to my 8 year old, but she didn't get it. I love music; sometimes it's just about the feeling - and that you can't explain.

I never meant to be insulting or belittling...your music is certainly more deserving than such a review. You have great things going for you, and I support you in every way.

Hey, thanks for the nice comment on the remix. It didn't turn out exactly as I imagined but that's the way it goes sometimes. I love doing that kind of work, let me know if you have another track you would like me to work on just for the hell of it. Chris

Political Folk song, predicting a grim tomorrow, scribed in an esoteric fashion.
(Coming into) WINTER TIME
Days are getting shorter; days are growing colder
Coming into winter time
Seasons changing faster for the demon master
Coming…
Political Folk. About the sexual hangups and illnesses of our culture because we don’t know how to talk to each other and our kids about sex and agree on what’s right or wrong and where the lines should be drawn.
NO ONE’S BIZ'
Education…
Lyrically one of my favorites, and actually one of my fave recordings despite the obvious sound quality issues that plagued my early recordings. I think it’s one of my better-composed Psychedelic Folk tunes.
IN THE END
Had enough of looking…
Hope you enjoy the trip. The bass line kept my fingers busy on this more aggressive Psychedelic Folk tune. The poem is actually three crammed into one, all about the same dream.
LAST NIGHT
With a subtle touch
I have said enough
But you…
I decide while I was here, after enjoying the first three songs I listen to, that I'd just go ahead and hear the rest of your postings. I like the panning job on this one. Good, wide feel.
Wha wha wha wha wow! Tasty! Diging the gravely voice, the guitar and effects, the lyrics... a great way to start my morning -- that is, your new song AND this cup of coffee right here... ;)
I dig this composition of random noise -- it's out of the box yet still groovy. The sounds are pleasant, interesting, fun, and all seem to fall in timely and executed with meaning, intent, purpose, despite also seemingly random as per the title. Effective while psychedelic and definitely far out. Keep it groovy, Man!
I noted that Greg Conner, whose opinion I've come to trust, had commented on this song, so I came by for a listen. You've won a new fan -- I'll be following you hear-after. This is a gorgeous song -- the strumming, the picking, the vocals, the lyrics, the mix down/mastering job -- it's all beautiful! Great job -- Rock on!
Well this is certainly a bit different than the last few of your creations I just heard. I like the acoustic-sounding rhythm guitar -- nice strumming style. I'm pleased to discover that you're not stuck in a particular box and are actually broader than that. The lead guitar on this one is really emotional, sweet, and gripping.
I'm really digging the melodic lines of this mix down. Nice attack, really demonstrating your guitar skills here, what with the expertly executed harmonic licks which give a lot of other guitarists a bit of grief and a great delivery of the scale.
I am particularly impressed with your drumming skills. I can tell you're fun on them, and you're creative at it, composing with that set up rather than simply keeping a beat. Again, a great job.
Very professional, a very classy, tasteful composition. Your talents at the various instruments and at mixing down and mastering is quite impressive. Great job -- Rock on!
Now I know what an EBow is -- just looked it up at Wikipedia -- and what the results are when employed. Sounds very groovy. Thanks for expanding my world!
You should be a billionaire. Paul McCartney could never pick like you and he's a freaking billionaire. It's a shame that your one in a million picking talent is overlooked. But it's a thrill to have you here with us less evolved musicians on AloneTone -- thanks for sharing your very exceptional gift!
Intricate and intriguing. I dig that far out, jazzy scale. Like coloring outside the lines -- when done right, it can be totally groovy. Once again, a brilliant, fabulous job!
Comments on Gene Eric Mann's stuff

Interesting song lyrics.
Nice guitar and atmosphere on thisun.
Very cool song, love the feel...Great job!
Nice Johnny Cash feel! Love it! Keep up the good tunes! Thx for the kind words :-)
Slinky and very cool. Loving your late night gravelly vox...
Oosh! A touch of Elvis Costello in your tone here? Very cool.
Fabulous premise - and a wonderful collaboration, guys.

Excellent!
Suzy Creamcheese alive and well in 2015? I just had some sort of weird flashback to a college FM station around 3 a.m.

I stopped by to get a little taste of *GENE* . . . . And now . . . . *Onward!*

good message and reminder!
There's that ending thunder again!
Had to listen twice. I love the tone you have on the guitar......
Very catchy my brother. Nice.
I rather like this.
Comments made by Gene Eric Mann
That was some groovy lead guitar! ;)
Some sad, in your face, bittersweet, reaching lyrics.
You have a great, cool style. I'm into it. You got me! ROCK ON!

I'm into how your mind works musically. What you fit together works for me, and your vocals and poetry works for me too. Great stuff -- Rock on!
Oh, very nice! Groovy percussions! I dig the sound combination -- shows great taste.
I like it. I'll follow you. Nice strumming style, cool vocals, interesting lyrics, nifty break, pleasant chord arrangement. DIG!

I missed this one! I dig it, especially the switch over at the end. Groovy. You da man!
GORGEOUS! You always do a great job, but this is fabulous!
