Another one for Steve, our bass player….a BIG Planet of the Apes fan.
I never followed Those movies, but he assures me that he’s kept within the bounds of the narrative.

It’s nice having our original lead guitarist back for a visit….special thank-you to Keith for his work on Matt’s song.

Hey you, little man inside a choo-choo
You do it differently than I do.
Hey man, I hear you’re on a big-plan…

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.
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…

Agree with jimgoodinmusic... Byrds tone sneaks out on the guitar and percussion. Would love to find out who all of your influences are for the band.
In response to your hopefully slightly tongue-in-cheek comment about drum clarity to TonyCee... I always found letting the mics mug the kit like 3" away from everything and then an aggressive high pass filter got everything as clear as possible without muddle. That's exactly what professionals don't do... :D
Anyway, great as always.

Hey gang! It’s us again, The Proods…thousands of followers worldwide!
Here’s another track by Brian…channeling his inner heavy-metal lover….
It was fun working on this, though I prefer the OTHER version that we did. A groovy 1960’s styled version…
-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…

Lyrics…

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.

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…
Um - yeah. There are a few naughty words - many apologies.
This is a bonus track -- unless I can't think of a legitimate track 10. If so, then this is both the highlight and crowning achievement of the album, and I totally intended it to be.
As a child my mother once climbed up a tree. From there she shouted to her twin brother "It is the roof of heaven showing from here"
Taivaan katto means the roof of heaven in English
Heres one I found on my Hard drive an experiment with Igor 2016 part of a project called mmmm I believe (Hi Igor its been a while...) anyway hope you enjoy

I can see you on your rocking horse now
The one that turned around and kicked you in the teeth
He thought…
We're bored in lockdown again. I call out for collaboration and Joe Whibley pops out of the aether. And this is what happened. Joe did a fucking fantastic job with most of the work (playing all the instruments and a vocal), I just stuck in some…
Are you scared to wake up?
In the same place you laid your head.
You scribble on your make up,
To pretend your face's not dead.
And I know,
Yes I know.
The opposition shows.
Are you afraid to take up?
Memoirs of your past.
You hang…
so.... i first wrote & recorded this song in 2015, and then did a new version in 2017, and here's my updated 2020 version...
still not totally happy with it but... here we are anyway lol...
I live in a house with a river running at the bottom of the garden so i wrote a song about it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sz0ygixKAno
When I get down by the river and I watch it flow
I Wonder where the hell it finally goes
Snaking…
(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I wasn't even sure the recording machine was still going to work after nearly five years... Certainly, bits of me don't work anymore... But, surprisingly, I got this done in 24 hours, start to finish... Strange old world…
Comments on The Proods's stuff
Sounds like it ended on the cutting room floor after a tense debate about what goes on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath! And I love that album. Nice!
Excellent
Quite possibly tied with The Simpsons "Dr. Zaius" as the best Planet of the Apes inspired song ever!
love it! ...Happy New year
This one hits the spot!! A catchy one. Thanks Proods!!
This feels like a T-Rex song. And I really like T-Rex. :D
Hey, this is cool. Nice job guys! Also, thank you for giving my makeshift Christmas tune a listen the other day.
Your music always sounds like you guys are having a GREAT time. Lots of little surprises in this one.
Nice to hear from you, it’s been a long time and you are right … we have enjoyed Alonetone for many years. Happy songwriting!
Always love new music from the Proods! A good rockin dance tune! Very catchy chorus

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

Soft and subtle vibe!
