As chance had it, I found myself in an acoustically great room, full of cajons! Well, they were unfinished cabinets actually, but they had lovely tones. Since this is the stuff dreams are made of, I had no choice but to seize the opportunity and…

A bit of fun for the holiday. This one features guest vocalist R.I.P otherwise known as the cheap battery powered talking tombstone

CHECK IT OUT!! It's the very elusive and thought to be the stuff of fabled musician's lore, A "completed" song by the guy that I AM! A robster the rock lobster I'm going to keep this song EXCLUSIVELY here at Alonetone.com because this…

With the amazing JS Tolar, as band "Visions of Nell".

Hey Kids, Happy RPM. Surf's up! I played this one for my lady, she said she wants to move to California. I'm not sure if that's because I've been wired up in the Dog House for 9 days or if she wishes to try some surfing. Go figure.... Anyway…

A single track of improvised chromatically tuned congas in 7/8, accented with clave, guiro, cajon and quinto. (For those who may be interested in collaborating on this, the triplet phrasing of this groove may be most easily counted like this…

Just bashed this out whilst in the middle of cooking dinner :) Please excuse wrong chords and dodgy timing... Enjoy!

Fingerstyle improv

Okay Andrew R. , this ones for you bud. Had a little fun with it in the intro. That was the surprise. I put the bass line down and arranged the drums Saturday morning and returned later that night about 10:00 pm . I worked until 2 am and laid…

After an adventure in re-recording the entire song down a third, we came back to the original, tightened and tuned. Always the self flagellating perfectionist, it still needs a bit more love. Always the pragmatist, it is probably done for now.

Traditional blues tune. tech: MXL993 6in. from bottom f-hole, AKG C2000b 2ft. 45 deg. above guitar.

I do three things after waking up these days: I shower. I make coffee. I play this song and drink my coffee. Nothing complicated. Nothing fancy. Just some basic fingerpicking to test my motor skills and bring some aural sunshine into my day.

7 acoustic guitar improvs from April all stuck together.

Well, song 10 finally. A bit on the heavy side, some odd FX, strange vox, an Ibanez, The ever present harmonica, and some help from Illegal Alien Autopsy. This was the first song I tracked for RPM. But, since my pen has run out of ink this month…

This dark reggae tune has been hanging around in my "works in progress" folder for a while, but I was finally inspired to complete it when I borrowed a guitar from my friend Joe. Thanks, Joe!

I thought I'd uploaded this ages ago! Less chaotic 'Chaos' after I found a melody I was happy with, and the delay button :) Enjoy! xox P.S. I knew I'd seen it on here somewhere - it was uploaded by Jip under Third Quarter of the Moon :)

Love playing with Norm!

Garn/Landry (And I barely deserve any credit for this one at all) A while back, Jim recorded a rough version of this song, and upon listening to it, I was thrown back to a day from my youth. While vacationing in Vermont, a small twister throwing…

A 7/8 improvisation on a set of 3 Bata drums, accented with afucha, tube shekere and cowbell. The number 7 is a symbol for perfection or completeness: 7 colors in a rainbow, 7 musical notes in a scale, 7 days = a week, etc. In Cuba, the…
