Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…
While I'm certain there are those who may be growing weary of scratching, I couldn't resist posting this great mix by Alister Flint, who is truly a master mixologist extraordinaire - he didn't even have individual tracks to work with! Al was too…
in a cool darkened lounge
floors above the cityscape
quiet laughter, clink of ice in glass
D min looks into the eyes of G min
a quiet romance begins
sometimes the best things in life are quite simple
(lots of rough sound on this,, not sure…
A song about meeting up with each other this year for some music and booze next week.
Lyrics-
i need some space
i need some time
just to rehearse
for the viking dance
what should i wear
what should i bring
what will we sing…
Full picture of the guitarron body - it sounded great - nicely deep.
The guitarron is fretless with a very short neck which reminds me of a giant Oud - the wikipedia article will give you an idea of just how huge this thing really is…

Featuring Norm Harris on Percussion!
i hope you like it...
I plugged my Fender Mustang directly into the Zoom H2 and monitored with head phones while sitting on my bed and played around. This is a compressed version of one of the things I did. I've been pretty sick the past few days but I needed to…
From an old song of mine.
Wanted it raw so stuck with the One Guitar one voice thing.
All in all a Two track production (Excluding the drum track.)...

This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
Good dog. Bad Dog. It's all the same. Poor Daisy. Sometimes when the opportunity presents itself, you just have to run far away, through out the night.
Great vox on this one and the change of perspective -from the narrator's to Daisy's- is very clever. But the double entendre that this piece drips with is the part I like the very best.
These are facinating! More information, please? Origin? History? Translation? Production details? What is that predominant percussion sound? Almost sounds like a bellows...
Well, this may be the final tweaking of this nice little sing along song...
I sent this fun little sing along off to Jim of MTC fame, and once again he has outdone himself... And I can't thank him and his wife (who appears covertly) enough…
This is what happens when I come back to a track that started being put together in a commercial radio station production studio back in about '92/'93 (post liquid-lunch "creative" time). The rhythm loops were layered then the crunch guitar (courtesy…
This is a musical setting of Bruce Andrew’s poem “jjj†from his book “Moebius†thanks to PennSound archive.
To create the music I hijacked Norm Harris’ Y Class Steam Locomotive Bell sample and his percussion piece Ilesa and added…
The contrast of this aging "summer boy" and his outdoors-loving daughter who is more than happy to run out into the cold.

Comments on Norm's stuff

Only 15 days to go.....this still gives me goose bumps...excellent!!
Norm, check this out: http://alonetone.com/forums/off-topic/topics/please-help-me-hear-you
really fine, sounds so full/rich in headphones, well done
I noted this song is 4:20 long -- perfect!
Now THAT is a groovy beat! Rock on!
Excellent ! Like the textures throughout. No metronome, more soul
stone groove 4:20 coincidence? i think not
This is a great groove. Very inviting.
nice one! hypnotic
Lucky saint to have such a cool groove named for him!
You are a metronome :) Diggin' the shakers.
Loving it .....
Nice one. Good to hear new stuff from you.
Many thanks Chris!
Love it!!! From Vaisvil
So good so see you here again!
absolutely fantastic song!
Oooh yeah!!......
Comments made by Norm
Excellent!
Have a great time. Have a G&T for me!
Sounds like a mariachi band has recently been through your Guitar Center...
Awesome! I'd love to see you guys perform in the desert sometime... a perfect back-drop for this sort of music and hunting for allicantos.
Ahh. This evolves nicely. I love the cello action. Totally pro.
Great space you have created here! Just right for a high soaring Condor. You did a beautiful job with this -superb mixing. I love it! Many thanks!
I still love this one...
I can hear you recovering!
Menacing!
Very effective! Nice guitar work and drum work here.
Excellent. I think you nailed it with this one: one guitar, one voice works very well here.
Good dog. Bad Dog. It's all the same. Poor Daisy. Sometimes when the opportunity presents itself, you just have to run far away, through out the night.

Go team go! I'm singing it with you!
Excellent work here. Meritous of many more listens IMHO.
Great percussion!
Very enjoyable. Thanks!
Sounds great nearly 20 years later!
So how does the harmonic series filter work? Does it just allow one to hear the lowest A, E and next to the lowest B? Wild stuff!
She's going to treasure this someday...
