Another song created from watching too much TV....
Live in the living room or should i say Cellar.....
The Summertime's Leading me on (LiLR)
as i watch another winter fade and die
i know i’m never gonna get that time again
i know down deep…

Sometimes the simplest of mix downs -- a man and his acoustic guitar -- are the most effective, especially when dealing with such gripping lyrics as these. Rock on!
I didn't mean to turn it into a Ballad it just happened your honor
He Was The Gypsy King To Me
i sit alone thinking of my father in this empty room
and all that he’d done for me
and i sitting alone in this empty room, thinking of what…
I grew up in a 51 Chevy school bus, converted into a camper, with 7 other people, an ocelot, squirrel, and rabbit. My father traveled from state to state, show to show, entertaining strangers with his music while keeping the rest of us alive and together. To me, he was the king of the hobos. He's no longer with us, but your song brought him back to life for me, for a moment. Thank you. Stay groovy!

Got a lot of bad news this week and this came out.......
i want to see the sunshine
come out through the pouring rain
i want to see the clouds break
i want to see this day start again
oh i’m gonna get down on my knees get down on my knees…

One thing I missed the most about alonetone is the collaborations that spring up sporadically - love the creative spirit round here. Another very fine example of sonic synergy. Love the early Fleetwood Mac feel... I don't know Zep, but you're doing it very well, guys.

Well... I have a feeling that many of us may wish for a 2020 do-over. So here's a simple song to make that wish for us all!
Oh Mulligan
I wake up every morning
My jaw is clenched so tight
Even in my dreams it’s a battle
Who’s wrong and…
Music written and performed by Mike Smith, also known as Dragonsong.
When Mike first asked me to read this poem, he believed it was written around the time of the Spanish Flu...but, our sources say no. It was most likely written by Kitty O…
I wrote this one in response to a song writing challenge from the Minnesota Association of Songwriters. The title had to be Mississippi Moon and it had to have a I V VI I II chord progression somewhere in the song. Over 20 writers have signed…
This is the last song on The edge of Winter but it is not finished there is another part yet to be written ...
Winter's tale of woe : Part 1 - The end of winter. Part 2 - The last snowstorm
This is an oldie. Recorded in 2005. It was the first recording I finished on a DAW, but I'd played it a lot in the last band I was in (around the turn of the century). I think it was written in the mid 90s. It's about one of the casualties of…
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…
Tim Chandler was a tall man with a big heart and a great sense of humor. He was the bassist for a number of bands including Daniel Amos, The Choir, and The Swirling Eddies. He also played bass on sessions and tours for Phil Keaggy, Randy Stonehill…

And this is the last of the little threesome of In Your Hands, Little Thing, and this one, When I Try To Be Me.
It's in the key of 4th fret and was written just over a month later than the other two, on 19th March…
Do you ever have an idea / song that you just need to get out of you and recorded, even though it's so rough that you'll want to re-do it over and over again? This is one of those for me....
Drive Until The Signal Dies
Verse 1
Your Silence…

Now here's a bit of an oldie - the second song I ever wrote. In... 1978!
I think I played it once, or maybe twice, at school assemblies. My musical peers and colleagues back then dismissed it as corny/rancid pop music…

OK, let's delve once more into the magical shoebox of unused songs...
I've already recorded several that were written in 1994 (Sleeping with the Ghost, Elizabeth's Room, With Mum Again, If You Knew, A Hundred and…
Well you’ve proved to yourself your not “crap” reminds me of something my father would say to me time and time again “ don’t touch that you’ll break it “ and I normally did. Pleased you saved this one from the shoe box an excellent lyric love it pie pod bound along with all your others 😁

I wrote this song about my father and Dementia/Alzheimer's over a year and a half ago. We just finished the song and video, kind of surreal because Dad is in a nursing…
My mother recently died of Alzheimer’s after a long illness and I can say you’ve certainly captured the disease with this track, the desperate confusion, the fear and loss an excellent bit of work . My heart goes out to you or anyone who has to deal with Dementia it’s a horror You grieve while the loved one is still alive.
After the lockdown, I felt Out of the Darkness. It's still a long way to go but at least I can breath fresh air and walk immersed in nature once again.

Very classy.
