This is an experiment where I slowed down Norm Harris’ percussion track “7th Son†http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son and slowed it down by a factor of five and ran it through effects and such – and then played along with my 17…
love the sound of the slowed percussion each beat seems to shake...sounds like musical devastation the twisted sounds in the silence after something major just happened...an earthquake or Tornado...with a man in a Pink Tuxedo running around crazed in the wreckage looking for his lost Bride.......

We hope you enjoy it…

Norm has been teaching a master's class in percussion and gave me (a lot!!) of guidance to try to add bass properly to this. I added 5 string bass, Fender Mustang and GR-20 sax to his excellent Tumbao track. We hope you enjoy it.
My Life has Become
I have all of these memories
That come on back to me
I don't know what to do
I don't know what I should do with them
Out of nowhere they cover me...
Like a breaking beam of light
Like the star dust in the night

I played 12 string guitar and 5 string bass along with Norm's original percussion track http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/7th-son. The only effects were a bit of attack shaping on the bass (compression w/o compressing).
I did this kind of oddly…

Another oldie as I work on other stuff. State of the art PC sound in 1991 was the Adlib card with one OPL2 FM synthesis chip w/o audio capability. Limiting as that was I still had a lot of fun with it. This is one example - I love that lo-fi…
Doom! Count me in!
(Ha! Had to laugh as the 7 sec. mark of this one has that "squeak" sound that I have previously misinterpreted in other songs as being a squeaky bass drum foot pedal... what do I know about computer generated music?)

I think it is very smart that AT does not have a system of "ranking" or "rating" songs other than "favorite". Such a system, by it's very nature, is just going to hurt somebody's feelings.

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

Wow...goin' OUT! Love it...T-rex meets Tom Waits for a beautifully gnarly blues-brawl.
loose...in the moment...in the zone. It takes me to another place...and I'm there.
Beautiful! Love that tuning!
Thanks Chris a wonderful escape into oblivion, your right it is like club med...arrrrrr relax...............
Most enjoyable bluesy collab. Cool vox from Reg.
Enjoyed the jazzy feel given by the sax. Super cool collab.
A really good song.
Nice Jam! One can almost imagine this all happening at one time
Pure and True, Awesome power through your finger tip's..and deeply deep... Makes me feel like I need to find myself somewhere that I've never ben...

Cleverness as usual.
Trolls ate traxinspace?! That's sad. Intriguing piece!
Absolutely beautiful!
Ah, the good 'ol days of TraxInSpace... this was a classic there!
!!! beautious.
wow! that was breath taking deep!
I like your music very much - it's dramatic and compelling!

If we don't watch it Desiree will break up the band!
It isn't love Reg - it is apparently an addiction!
wow - what a novelette!
Hi Reg - the drums on Staggering Home is provided by my old band mate Frank Miller. listening....
I'm glad you took this child under your wing and helped it grow up!
no aliens in the fav box - but still 89 favs - interesting.
enjoyed - I certainly do love the background you give to your work.
great enjoyed!!
beautiful!
whoa - I've been missing out - this is sweet!
This has the vibe - not the sound - of T-Rex. I really like this shuffle rock - and cool lyrics!!
I'm playing a hot rodded Fender Mustang in that video. And I want that Taylor so much .. man. I wonder if I should sell the car.
indeed don't quit this one!
Hi Kavin - Alien Renegade is a 6 string steel I love your playing here!
sounds good!
wonderful music - lovely playing!
and, so far, no aliens!
@ Norm - I think she is saying I need you help!
groovy!!
apparently so - seeing another one slipped through the wormhole
