about Winter Nacht
each year for the past 4 RPM cycles,, i have known a friend or loved one who has passed away... throughout history winter has been a time when sickness and death creep a little stronger amongst us..... perhaps because of these…
Mesmerising.
(The night Bethan was sitting in Lichfield Cathedral listening to those awesome voices, I was having her grandchild 250 miles away! Just a little trivia for you there...)
Four years ago, I sat alone in Lichfield Cathedral, the night before my son's wedding and listened to the choir. It was spellbinding.
You have taken me back there. Thanks!
This tune was written on the day I bought my vintage Yamaha CP-25 electric piano and returned to hear that Dennis Hopper had passed away. I fired up the gear and cranked this out. The sound of the piano made me feel like Ray Manzarek...thus the…
A new song that I've been working on, still yet to be titled, but heres a live recording as part of the Winter Bridge Sessions (video to accompany on youtube).
It was recorded on a bridge at night in the winter ... aka Winter Bridge Sessions…
~Good things don't age. What about a man?~
I was a fan of easy listenings like Enoch Light, still love these sounds and light pleasure that they bring. Here so.
P.S. Night birds recorded in Berlin this April, silly whistling/theme is mine…
Basically my feeble attempt at a fist pumping 'dance' song... but of course I had to weird it up a bit. :) The main vocalist who basically says variations of 'I like to dance' are my computers voice. Thanks for listening!
i like the way the lead guitar notes blend, is this an effects pedal? (perhaps im showing my ignorance,, oh well) in fact it seems as if many notes are bent/blended in this piece,, very cool,,,, by the way, just for reference, which CM did you say ,, i enjoyed this a lot
~images of bygone days~
This was 2009, and it was a photo contest to provide seven pictures of a story and all that. I, together with other, more talented photographers, was in.
In parallel with the images I have written short seven neo…
i would be hard pressed to think of a better way to spend any 9 minutes than by listening to your wonderful playing here,, ( and yes i mean that for all things considered!) this is a really beautiful/artistic set of musical notes,, it's amazing how with just 12 different notes (over several octaves, to be sure) and a magical use of timing you can create such a full rich picture... both lovely and brilliant R
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!
Originally on my [24-hour album](http://alonetone.com/colingarvey/playlists/24-hours-of-aargh) back in 2008, I've added an invisible rhythm section and remixed it.
I may do this with a few more old tracks I didn't quite get right first time round.
fun little piece,,, please tell me a little about this,,, it seems so reggish,, in sound and structure,,, is it based on something, or how did you come to make this?? i m always interested in how fellow artists come to a do what they do,,, R
really cool, really creative,, great piece, and that's coming from a vegetarian,,sort of feels similar to how i used to feel going out to stalk my basil plants in the morning,, hope you are getting better R
Here is the solo dance version. It's rockin' pretty hard. I'm hoping to take this into a band setting at some point and get some brass involved, but for now...
very rich sounding/feeling... not sure how to say this,, but i ll give a try,,, often this type of music is nice but leaves me feeling a bit empty/soso but you have a certain warmth/spirit to this that is very moving,, nicely done R
I couldn't resist crossing swords with Alex on this deft song of his which left me quite touchéd!
*Inspired in part at least by accidental meat on meat.*
Here's the original track.
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…

Chris,, where to begin? perhaps it's best to just listen? beautifully relaxed playing, your touch here is "simple" and so full,,, (which to my way of thinking is the highest praise i can say, i think you'll understand),, 2nd listen,,,, i often consider the silence between the notes to be as beautiful/important as the notes themselves,, seems like that to me here..... i believe you have created a small master piece here,, well well done ps thanks for you listen and comments on WN,, i always appreciate them Richard
