Hi gang.
The Proods are back....Brian at the helm this time.
Our methodology is thus....one of the 4 of us introduce a song, and then we'll bang out a finished track in under an hour with as few over-dubs as possible. This one we put some effort…
Hey gang! It’s us again, The Proods…thousands of followers worldwide!
Here’s another track by Brian…channeling his inner metal, though we all tend to swing towards 60’s pop.
It was fun working on this, though I prefer the OTHER 1960’s style…
-Mrs. Groovy Sunshine-
Lyrics…
As the shadows stretch across your dark and lonely room
and your record player fails to chase away your gloom
I want to hold you tight, and tuck you into bed at night
I just hope that you’re alright, and I can…

Tranquil guitar and a voice like a glove wrapped in velvet.
I remember Mrs. Groovy Sunshine from Phys Ed. class. She was quite a beauty in her day and we needed sunglasses to feel comfortable looking at her. Unfortunately, because of the co2 emissions in the atmosphere, over time, she became unbearable and I had to drop her class, much preferring Mrs. Cool'n Cloudy.

Simpler Days is a ballad by drummer-Matt.
While I was mixing it the words caught me off guard and the song stirred up some emotional stuff that I'm hoping might come through for the wider listening public.
This has a nice country joe groove and feel to it and I love the melody. It would help to share the lyrics they aren't really standing out enough for these old ears... not a criticism just sayin' I'm old. :) Thank you for sharing as always.
More groovy vibes from your friends here in Boston!😘
Lyrics-
Emily Cline couldn’t make up her mind
Whether to stay or to leave me behind
She’s etched in my memory permanently
But she couldn’t decide what she felt about me
They say…

Another Proods Rocker from Brian. I love his lead guitar on this one…sort of reminds me of Steely Dan, or some other classic rock tune.
More great stuff on the way….also, be sure to check out our remixed tracks.
Travel back with us to 1962…the Place, the shores of the River Mersey.
Umbrella Book is a song about a book….eh, I’m not gonna explain it to y’all.
Slap on a pair of drainies and some Italian heeled boots and you’re on your way to some nostalgic…

Yes…we’re TRYING to do an AC~DC thing here.
The song was written by our lovable drummer Matt, but we all had fun working on it. (The Angus-style guitar lick was mine.)
As always, the song is introduced to the band, kicked around and recorded…

I wrote this song earlier this week, and reached out to the wonderful Greg Connor and SL Krell here to help me with the lead, rhythm and bass guitars to give it a nice country love song feel. They killed it!!!!!! Thanks to them both for making…
Breathe
You made it home alone at last
Keep it underground and inconspicuous
Need

When there's no vice, there's not much left of man
The exception is the rule and there's no doubt
You've been taken in and…

Your latest brought me here to walk through your musical garden...genuinely entertaining composition...and Gene Eric Mann liked you. He was my brother in music!
This is a piece I did a few years ago. It's basically an up-tempo instrumental rock thing. I was going for a bit of a "shred" vibe on this track & I nicked the idea of the slow blues ending from Ugly Kid Joe :-)
An instrumental guitar tune which combines some flashy rock "guitar hero" stuff with a strong melody. Couldn't think of a title so I just did what I always do in that situation... nick the name of an old movie from the '50s
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…

I like monster movies. No idea what you’re talking about, but it’s a good mix.

A rare treat to hear something upbeat and fun. It makes me regret almost all of our sarcasm!
Wow! I'm a fan, bro.
Wonderfully bizarre.
Good stuff...If I had the pipes I would have given this tune a shot...real heart, man.
This is AWESOME!!! I've been waiting to use the word "Huzzah" on Alonetone, but HUZZAH to your great great cover.
This evokes a bunch of wonderful mental imagery. I especially like the simplicity of the lone piano!
Great pipes, man... well done!
You did it again, DUDE! Bravo!!!
I'm so happy that your music has made it's way across my transom.
This is a GROOVY track, man.
I'm kind of speechless...this is very very nice...I hope that doesn't sound trite.
Your latest brought me here to walk through your musical garden...genuinely entertaining composition...and Gene Eric Mann liked you. He was my brother in music!
A Masterpiece! This one gets downloaded.
There aren't enough folks out there doing what you do. Really looking forward to more...
MORE!!!!!
Fun!
Mesmerizing!! I didn't want this to end.
I love this track! It reminds me of the Monkees...and believe me, from me that is a compliment!
Now we're TALKING!!!
So utterly shocked and saddened by his passing. True feeling of loss for my brother in music.
