HEAR MY FINAL SONG

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

I got the speakers turned all the way up Gene!
We've been through a lot. Remember all the song writing challenges at EZFolk? I never thought I would have so many friends that I will never meet in person.
Your last song is something to be proud of. I was taken by the lyrics bouncing between acceptance and denial. Steve mentioned the chord changes. Mark talked about the weight of the message.
We were honored that you asked us for a little help.

Greg, Steve, Mark:
I am so touched, so moved. This final mix down brought a tear to my eye and a chill to my bone. Y'all handle this song with great care and delicacy and made a marvelous bit of music. I'm right proud of all of you and my friendship with you. I'm very lucky to have had this chance to make this beautiful song with such beautiful souls with what days I've been graced with. Thank you all so very much!

A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.

A fun little Blues jam. The BG rhythm/drums were generated with the Yamaha E313 KB. All other noises are my fault.

If someone can do some Bodhran drum in the final mix it would add a lot. Rick's songs always had the beat and place for one in them. Great job Greg. Great lyrics Mr. Mann

Hey, Son! This song has made it to Alonetone's "Currently Kicking Ass" chart! Congrats! You're in 5th position but may climb higher. Either way, people are listening -- Rock on!

The guest who commented below I must agree with regarding the early to mid '60s feel. and yet again, as the same guest noted, there is that "distinctively Jim Taylor" sound. And finally, again like the guest below, I like it!
The accapella, which I added into this song was very nice resembling the voice of Björk, but unfortunately the original pella was so out of tune, that I had to use autotune to make it fit properly, and I hate using autotune and hearing it. So…
This is a song about those thoughts that you wish you wouldn't have, and which take you away... In medicine I think it's called limbic hijacking, and it's documented that the fits last more or less the same as a movie teaser :)

You've got a knack for producing catchy tunes. You've got your own formulae, and it works. This one is a prime example of what I'm talking about -- you've got the gift!
FOR A PENNY
From the moment Toy saw the light
he was the center of attention.
In a room full of sunlight and 'Welcome,"
he was a new dimension.
Tiny traveler, arriving wet
Peggy hardly breaking a sweat
Toy was born in the middle of the…
Again, while not exactly the tone of Neil Young, your execution and delivery is indeed an echo of that very talented Canadian. The sung parts, anyway. Sweet story.

BROKEN BOTTLES
Broken bottles on the shore
You're molded to the bathroom floor
Just like you were the day before
All throughout the year and more
No excuse, you're such a mess
You break your word, you're honor-less
A heartless soul…
Y'all came together and created some magic! Great lyrics, vocals, lead guitar break, bass runs, and the mix down/mastering is truly tasteful -- fabulous!
soooooooo this is an acoustic-y (technical term) song about something... reevaluating the lyrics suggests possibly a murder? (tho idk it can mean anything tbh)...
i wrote this song today and then recorded it today and then was like wooaah why…
7/8 time and the song form is A-B-C-D-A. Just a goofy little attempt at not repeating sections. This is the second time this RPM I've done that. Sort of.
I don't know where the idea for writing about Darwin came from, but for me when an…
a very delightful, entertaining composition. Alice did a particularly tasteful job -- great delivery. Digging the sax job too. The drums are likewise well done. Some nice moves on the bass too. This really is a great compilation of sounds -- excellent flow.
An acoustic short song I just made up, I kept it very basic by only using my little Höhner guitar with nylon strings of which I recorded two layers. I hope you will enjoy my song ! Warm regards from Anna.
I hope Stoman will not mind me offering a different opinion -- I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY enjoy the reverb and echo on the vocals. It gives the track a colorful, deliciously psychedelic dimension that I for one appreciate. It makes the song all the more a fun treat to experience.
Comments on Gene Eric Mann's stuff

Great Guitar rythm and slide work. Vocals are awesome!! thanks for Sharing!
Paul Siegmund turned me on to you...
Thanks, Gene. It's been a pleasure accompanying and listening to your music! I'll always treasure our exchanges.
*AND NOW THAT I'M LOGGED IN* . . . . . It looks like I have accidently added a little humor as well.

I'm liking the harmonica. Nice one.
nice and heart felt song.....

A fabulous compilation of sounds. What a strong, mean-ass bass! Love it! This is happenin', man! Far out groove, dude!

Some sweet, fun sounds zipping to and fro!
The echoing is tasteful, choice, delightfully entertaining. I'm eating it up!
Yes, indeed, the Bowie element is not only in there, it's smeared all over the place! Great job at capturing his style, his delivery. Rock on!

And yet another tasteful, colorful, delicious compilation of groovy sounds! Intriguing lyrics.
Impressionistic, creating an interesting, melancholic atmosphere.
Very creative, brilliant, beautiful.
Wow. Gorgeous. Fabulous, guys.

Interesting, intriguing, unique style. I dig. Especially enjoyed the dual vocal tracks -- nice mix down/mastering job.
Love it, and the lead guitar break is especially juicy!
Nice guitar licks, great vocals, good music. Choice bass line.

I believe Fran Harris has earned a right to her own AloneTone account!

My woman loves this one too, especially the line, "...son of a..." ;)
