First things first, many, many thanks to Greg for adding Bass and a Great Harp break. Don't tell my mate Dave, my normal Harp buddy, he's been ill with Flu.
I scratched my head for many months after I wrote this, I couldn't work out where it came from. The light bulb did turn on at last,I realized I wrote it a few weeks after my father passed away. Bless Dad you inspired a song.

An old one remastered. Thought I'd be posh and call it that !!!! Didn't realize I wrote this 7 years ago, it is a bit of a rant, quietly !!! I apologise in advance if any one is offended by the Lyrics, just my opinion !!!!
Roger, this is Gene Eric Mann, using one of my alternative accounts on AloneTone (4 altogether). Anyway, you've done it again (although this is 7 years old for you, it's new to me). I love the way you write and record -- you've been one of my all-time favorites ever since I found you on ezFolk. This is a great tune. Hey, do you still have a copy of the song about the guy escaped from jail that you did to an instrumental track I composed? I'd dig hearing that one again.
Really don't know about this one. Feels like I've nicked it from some where or is it just a load rubbish !!!! Any way I've put it out there now. If rubbish it is, I'll take on the chin...... and sulk for a week or two !!!!!!
I don't know why, with you being one of my all-time favorite songwriter and recording artist, that I've neglected to visit your page for awhile. This is a fine example of your Rockin', signature sound. FABULOUS!

I suppose you could call this a Lament of sorts, I call it a bit of fun, and it was fun to record. Thanks Aimee, ( my daughter ) for the new strings for my birthday. they came in useful !!!!!

I listened before the "About" was in. I was thinking "why can't I write happy songs like this?" ... and then the verse after the instrumental arrived and put it right in the same ballpark as the lyrics I'd just been typing up!!!

An old song revisited. My attempt of writing a Ye Olde style Folk song !!!! The old version is still deep down in My Tracks, be a where the sound is awful !!!!!
I wrote this song for a benefit I played for the Yellowstone wolves. It is the true story of the reintroduction of the wolves in
Yellowstone Park . It's an ongoing controversy between the out laying rangers and environmentalist
I've been trying to put another one of Mike's poems to music, but not getting anywhere.
Then jip threw this music at me, saying he hated it and asking if I could do anything with it. Pieces of Mike's poem went in and I sent it back to jip with…
This is a remix of this song.
It was recorded in 2010, and I was in a hurry to post it elsewhere because I'm so fond of the song itself. But I've always hated the old mix - I lost the essence of the guitars and choirs during mastering because…
The single coil sound of my new used PRS guitar just got me in the funk. Had this partial riff on a Sony walkman from 10 years ago, decided to fill it out a little.

Music plays and I’m holding you so tight

I've been teasing Steve (SLKrell) about Rose, from Las Cruces Nevada, ever since he wrote a song about her for Valentines Day a few years ago.
Rosie is a figment of our imagination. I wrote a song about stealing her away from Steve:

Found this little chappie while I was preparing my latest original for loading.
It was a quick demo recorded on my Boss Micro BR sometime in October or so last year (2011) while I was working on Shine.
It was a sort of "blow the cobwebs out…
New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
How many nights am I just about to hit the sheets for the night and then a riff appears. I'll just rough record it but it always turns into a late night.

You've yet to write a bad song!
Still can't Log in, 3 months now, think I've lost the will to live. Roger.

I love everything you do. You have a groovy voice, an interesting style, and an awesome way with words, Mr. Dodger -- Rock on!
I don't know why, with you being one of my all-time favorite songwriter and recording artist, that I've neglected to visit your page for awhile. This is a fine example of your Rockin', signature sound. FABULOUS!
Thank you for your uplifting music. :)
Lovely uplifting composition - super sweet mix.
Nice *"Back To The Country"* song. I like that Open A tuning.
