I like this song, and I've recorded it twice now, but I don't think either recording lives up to its potential. I've been in Covid lock down for nine months now so I might just be crazy. Who can tell? I cut a little out of the original…

This was the only song from the 2015 RPM Challenge that did anything for me at the time. I clearly remember that. What I didn't remember until I read the notes from that 2015 alonetone post (which I did about four minutes ago) was that the guitar…

The 10th and final song for the third round or re-recorded Quarantine Tunes is now complete. I wish it closed with a better effort though. I don't dislike the way this came out, I just had higher hopes. This song is probably the most difficult…

Long backstory: I was at a band practice and Greg the singer was telling a story about an acquaintance of his who had recently let it be known that he believed the Earth was flat. Seriously. We had a good laugh. A day or two later my wife…
