Thanks for listening and commenting, J.M.! Man, I haven't been here in a long time. Good to see that you are still active. I hope I'll find the time to listen to your new songs. I have always liked your songwriting. I guess I should update some of my uploaded songs. Greetings, Steffen

We just finished another of Alberto's compositions.
Working with Alberto has made me listen a lot to Lucio Battisti and Lucio Dalla recently. This is exactly the vintage sound of Italo rock that I love.
I hope you like it - I do…
This song was written on guitar by Kari Eskola from Finland. He sent me his guitar track along with this fantastic vocal recording by Emmi Inkeri asking me to replace the guitar with a piano accompaniment.
I tried my best, knowing that I'm not…

You asked me who Jack Hardy was...He was a friend of mine, now gone. Beloved by many. This was a bit of teasing him, imitating how he sang. He and I shared a mutual respect. The first time I met him I was sitting under an awning at the Kerrville Folk Festival and he pulled up a chair and said, "Sing me a song." We were buddies from then on. The day he would arrive at Kerrville was always joyfully anticipated, not just because he made such great spigot. Here is a link to more about him:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Hardy_(singer-songwriter)
This song is a spin-off from "Hold On". Tez found the original music and wanted to use it for his own lyric, so we assembled a new band, and Gabro replaced my original piano track (while still using the original harmonies).

Wow, Errol, what a wonderful song. Production is great too - except the drums (I'm not crazy about the sound).
Is that you singing? I would not have recognized your voice. Great job, really.
I had to give this a listen because it is one of my favorite Cohen songs - although I like the Rufus Wainwright version even better than Cohen's.
Yours is a very interesting interpretation. Something you have to listen to with dedication. It did not grab me immediately - but after a couple of bars you had me. And now I'll hit that heart button thing up there. :)
This song was born on the 18th of Feb. 2011. It was the last piece I wrote/recorded for the challenge. It was a very sad day for me, almost as if all my usual winter sadness was concentrated and crammed into one day. The process of writing and…
This is a collaboration with a prolific chap called James Higgins (oldrottenhead on songcrafters.org), based on an instrumental of mine from a couple of years ago: http://alonetone.com/andyr/tracks/muletide
I was quietly minding my own business…
This is one of my all time favorites, and I was sure nowbody could sing this better that Rufus Wainwright. But I was wrong. Your version is just as good as his one.
I like Cohens own version very much too, btw. :)
A song about the five stages of grieving, as devised by the (late) Elizabeth Kubler-Ross. Unfortunately knowing these stages does not help you get over them.
You've been managing expectations
Consultations end in tears
Even if you're optimistic…
Standing, waiting, shivering, waiting, hoping, waiting, crying - all the while being cruelly mocked by the passage of time, and my analogue watch. It was not a very nice night.
Peter Fedofsky plays the piano on this song.
If you could…
At the 23rd hour we consider whether we've made the right decisions.
Written and recorded less the 48 hours before the end of the RPM challenge deadline. I wonder why.

Hi, James! A very long time, indeed. I have not been here for years. Less and less time ... How have you been? Still busy writing new songs?
Hey, it seems like years. Just want to say hi.
What a killer track. Got my head between my Toby speakers and it's like I'm inside the music. tobyspeakers.com
The band sounds great! tasty track.
Very nice. Good production. Kind of a 70's Bond theme vibe.

What an interesting combining of such desperate genres...
Love what happens @ 1:17.
You really capture late 60s here. Especially the keys...
ROCK & ROLL!!! Sooo clean!
Sparce and beautiful.
Some beautiful "awkward tinkering..."
Great track...and, you know it's true.

Interesting sort of inspiration. ;) Not bad, Geir. A more psychedelic mix might suit the song even better. But it sounds good as is.
Privet! :) Great music and vocals. Please post more. And more. And more ... :D
Very nice! I guess I'll listen to this song a couple more times tonight. :)

If this is what arises from depression, then there is at least one good thing about that. It's a good song, enjoyed it!
Very nice. Could well be the soundtrack for a documentary film on TV.
Wow, guys, that's a TREMENDOUS improvement on an already pretty impressive track. I love it. Great job!
Great vintage sound. Right up my alley! :)
I don't know the original, but your version sounds good. :)
Ah, damn, forgot to log in again. That latest comment was mine. ;)
If I don't stop listening to your songs now I will end up hitting the "favorite" button for all of them! :)
WOW, what a delivery. Your British accent is perfect for this. :)

What a ridiculously GREAT song! :D
Very good, downloaded. :)
Clearly influenced by the Beatles, the Beach Boys and such ... And a superb performance.
I love that piano and how your voice goes together with it. Great song!
Very nice listen! :)
Wonderful - I hear a lot of influences from many of my musical heroes, but yet you have your very own style.
