I played 12 string guitar and 5 string bass along with Norm's original percussion track http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son. The only effects were a bit of attack shaping on the bass (compression w/o compressing).
I did this kind of oddly…

There have been some discussions on the microtonal list about an isomorphic keyboard I have, the AXiS 49 (pictured above as I played it) and it reminded me I had not played it in a while. So I improvised 3 pieces on it in “selfless mode…

I couldn't resist crossing swords with Alex on this deft song of his which left me quite touchéd!

this time, won't even settle for slant rhyme
if it means choosing each tired phrase over one no one else'd say
who listens to the words anyway?

when you wake up
and it feels like its further away
you get discouraged
could it have really gone unnoticed
what you're tryin to find

it's more rooted in faith and less in fate
what you're tryin to find
isn't so gift…

Lyrics:
I’ll stand above this cliff
And offer up my soul
Would there be an end to pain
To jump in to this hole
Could this be goodbye
If there’s a light below me
Will it set me free
Could I fly today
Is this my only option

Lyrics:
I, I can’t find you, by my side today
There was something, now there’s nothing If you walk away
Can you find me, would you hold me, would you beg me to stay?
In this dark world, full of anger, would you kneel, would you pray…

the sheriff's back in town
that o' hired hand of dread

Kind of a Neil Young impression, I guess.
You know what's ironic? I think this was the only song on the album I didn't use a metronome to record.

I'm not one to toot my own horn, but I think I did a good job of summoning up a mellow, trippy atmosphere with a relatively minimalist arrangement (acoustic guitar, two pianos, lead vocal, and a guitar solo).
