Thanks to Roger Harris for the idea! Here are pictures of Minnesota in Spring 2013. Music provided by Steve Krell - CANYON THAW.

And then came a lion... Conga / Harmonica (key of D) improvisation. 4/4 90bpm

Come Tomorrow - I'm like a tumbleweed, got no roots I'm like a climbing vine, leaves and chutes Come tomorrow, I might not be around Come tomorrow I'm a reflection, you see me in your mirror A missed connection, so far and yet right here…

Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…

(Remastered 22/10/2021) Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978! I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

Back on the wurlitzer... 

Messing with a few of my 'oldies' (lol) for my mum's 70th birthday CD :) Enjoy! xox

Did the guitar tracks first, followed by bass, then drums and vocals last. I wrote this song in a bookstore, after I came home and recorded it, I realized I made the song too short for all the lyrics. Im talking, she's texting Im givin…

This is one from the album "Hide" (2003)I Hope you enjoy it :)

Been away from Alonetone too long....website is still buggy but anyway.....just having fun with some new pickup switching mod's on my guitar.

I spent the day skrewing around with this Roumanian Minor scale again. I am really testing layered drums on this one, Toms mostly. There's a lot happening. Acoustic, Strat, Bass, 4 Juno tracks, and all kinds of percussion. Only a two chord change…

For all the folks who can find the silver lining no matter what the situation may be.. Pardon the clips

In Argentina they say "in Argentina everything may change - except the tango", but I couldn't resist adding some percussion to this beautiful nuevo tango by Vincent Voois, composed in the style of Astor Pantaleon Piazzolla. Check out Vincent…

(Em) A legend that the sailors told Tales shared from long ago (C) Secrets that are captured in the (Em) air (Em) It comes to you from far way Whispered roars that fade away (C) Answers that are carried on the (Em) breeze Only (C) heard…

a pleasant song about being hopelessly in denial

Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.

I couldn't get anything right today so I just mashed through a guitar track and overlayed vocals. But now I kind of like the song so it will have to be redone. So sit back and relax, don't shower or shave and have a beer! Swill A Beer I sit…
