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…

This is my 2nd Piece that I "wrote" in a pretty simple fashion. I started with the 2 pizzicato tracks and then Improvised 3 voices on top of that. It started as a test if I can plug in my audiointerface into my phone and it kind of worked out…

With the road flat ahead of me
I push the pedal to the floor
No looking back any more
My future is ahead of me
As for the past I closed the door
I’m leaving all of that behind
Gonna be, better times ahead

This was a problem child.. The other tracks fell together quickly but this was a slow burn. The chorus is far more uplifting than the verse - which reminds me of a melancholy hybrid of 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' and the outro to the 70s British…

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.
