This acoustic song is a drunk nihilistic escapade with a surprise ending; so if you like to howl, join along and do your best "ahhoooo.."
Lyrics:
At full moon, I was drunk as a skunk
My belly full of bourbon, and my breath really stunk…

Black is white
White is black
I crossed the line
I can’t go back
It all comes together
It all falls apart
I’m on the edge
From the start
I’ve gone Colour Blind
To her signs, Colour Blind
Tears on your face
A broken heart
Unkind…
Once again, Greg Connor has kindly added his wonderful harmonica and Dobro to this song. Thanks so much, Greg! Mean Streak Blues is a song about how wrongly we could deal with frustration....enjoy listening

Down by the river, down by the shore we go
The moon above cast a beautiful glow
We walked around talking through the night
I can’t help but think how it felt right
Hey Constance, don’t you feel…

From Me
I don’t care what they think
From DC to New York – Looking for you
The sky is bright – But my heart is blue
Down, down, down – Down I go
100 miles an hour on this broken road
LOVE ME, KISS ME – I can’t understand what you see in…

Down this road
A night misspent
With ill intent
The devil came
But I’m to blame
The fire smoldered
her faith grew colder
Stabbed twice
In the heart
Her love bled
Her soul torn apart
From this day on…
Hi all,
I'm back to Alonetone after a long hiatus. I got the urge to record more of my songs. Since my son started playing guitar, I wanted to share with him my music. I just want to show him that music is a wonderful creative outlet to express…

Terrible recording due to my old studio set up dying, but a nice keepsake of just how bad things became before the rebuild.

With piano by Igor Alexeev.
One of my first experiments with DADGAD tuning. I was hoping to get a dark,droning sound. I lived in Missouri for a lot of years and this sounds like what it feels like to be out in the sticks there.

I uploaded this one earlier in the month with a rough track. Colin W. and Greg Connor helped me improve the arrangement and we recorded it at Winterland Studios this past week with some amazing equipment and awesome sound mixing support from…
Here's the second one we did at the Winterland Studios. You'll hear Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, Colin W. on bass and vocals and Randy C. on piano. This was a blast! I think this is definitely the best version yet of this song.

Hello, Nick. Yup, we are always trying to decode the female signing code. Still working on that
This song has a contemplative quality for me. I found myself drifting along with it.
Setting the example and setting the pace. Way to go. When will we hear the next generation?
I love it!
