This is probably to personal, to raw to put here, but I've been listening to some pretty courageous stuff here in alonetone. This is more of an occurence, a onetime performance, more of a memorial, than a recording. My dad had died recently, I…

Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

Rough and Slow acoustic version of the more poppy [lifeline glu and sudara collaboration](http://alonetone.com/doublemeanings/tracks/lifeline). If you like 4 minutes of the same 3 chords, you'll LOVE this song. Now that I have two microphones…

Another Proods Rocker from Brian. I love his lead guitar on this one…sort of reminds me of Steely Dan, or some other classic rock tune. More great stuff on the way….also, be sure to check out our remixed tracks.

A large portion of this record was written with my friend Wilsun in mind. If anything, this is an album to amuse him. To ensure I achieved that goal, I tried to write a song that reminded me of "Life In A Northern Town", although it actually…

**Song-writing Demo for FAWM 2022** Song number 9 Written Tuesday 15th February 2022 **** I decided it was time I wrote a song that wasn't so hard to sing and play! **** **Once Again - A A J Russe** Every day You keep asking…

This is a true story. Im pretty sure this guy still has a taxi job on the night shift in Denver. Too long since I’ve posted a song. Most importantly, I got Norm to dust off the skins and record some percussion for me. Good to hear Norm and…

This song is meant to be the intro, set the stage, and talk about the direction of the album. The riff came to me while I was absent-mindedly noodling on my gtr in front of the idiot box one day. I knew at that point I had an album opener of a…

another sad one from me...i seem to be stuck in the groove.... F Am F Am G Am G E7 Yesterday I had a dream I became one I was Watching the waves play around with the sun While dancing to the sweet vibe of that sunshine I suddenly felt the…

It’s a lasting impression Every time that you call It’s my only intention Leave you nothing at all Whenever you ask me I’m doing just fine It’s the dance that I do Every single time It aint what it looks like, not like that at…

A new one... I wrote it on 5th February, and managed to record it in less than a month (a head-cold and lack of hearing in one ear slowed the last lap somewhat). But seeing as the last one took over 8 months, I think I'm already ahead for…

Well, here's my installment for this year's RPM Holiday Challenge. Enjoy!

Here's the Classic from Boston from that time when my locks were flowing and i was 3stone lighter....with speed Demon Gene doing the music and yours truly trying his best on the vocals...hope you enjoy as much as we did doing it.....

The Broken Cathedral of Christchurch is an ambient poly-tuning piece using 11, 12, and 19 notes to the octave. The instruments used are a Korg MS2000 synthesizer, 19 edo electric guitar (several tracks), and 5 string bass – all with liberal…

Sassy Nation version! Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…

an improv with the ol pedal steel, with loads of fx. Spent a lot of time trying to get the noise off this track, but had limited success.

improv on the Epi Standard tuning, capo at third fret.

Well and truly launched

We really had a wonderful time working with Sister Savage and we have since inducted her into the band under her new virtual ego: Violet Hemlock! Thanks Tess! So...Without further Ado... "Love Song for the Moon" by VIVIAN CIRCLE featuring…
