Well, I play this in Fokker 7-limit Just Intonation on the piano and I didn't attempt to try to sing as high as Robert. So that makes the vocals hard to nail right there. And I played it over many times the past 3 days and my voice got worn out…
i wouldn't say murdered maybe a little beaten up though ....i love that piano work this is the first time I've ever heard it on the piano and it sounds great.....

Certainly is stirring stuff, unnerving and thought provoking. I really love your music Chris it's like it's stalking, ready to pounce - like a cat. Cheers Bee

You have interpreted the poem perfectly Chris. The poignant strings, military drum rolls and booming explosions set the scene most sympathetically. It's rather haunting! Lovely job indeed.
@Kavin, ha ha, it's the accent! Bethan

Chris and Bethan - Spellbinding collaboration... Dramatic, exciting, and beautifully performed. Love the reverse vocals at the end - sounds French! Super cool.

Crumbs Chris, that's incredible. Sounds really good, the music is superb, very nightmarish but dreamy too. Yeah, most impressed.
@Jane, Trev and Kavin, thank you, we had a great time.
I've been going to a lot of performance poetry nights recently, and this is amazing, Bethan. You'd go down a storm at my local Art House! Great collab :)
Another recent song somehow not posted to AT (?) cleaning house this weekend.
Had the privilege of playing around with a cello in the house.
Dont know how to play the damn thing but too fun not adding it in the mix
Working through a barrage of songs over two different computers. thought I posted this already but its not on AT. (?)
A little re-tooling on this one today as well.
Enjoy- Reef
First one for a long time thanks for listening .... thought i'd try playing everything...still got to work on that bass and drums

The pages of the book were leaking into the dream
Wading through waters of time, an unconscious stream

Takes you by force into the deep

Completed RPM 17. this is the last track!!. the album is my first run through with logic pro ( dumping pro tools and the monthly subscription fee)
I feel great playing again.. been so long…
I wrote this song about 2 years ago and shared it here on Alonetone back then. I decided to do a studio recording of it recently. With the help of the team at F5 Soundhouse here in Minneapolis we've created this updated version. I hope you enjoy…
Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too

I decided to keep working on this one a bit on the "keep messing with it" program.... added some backing vocals and some piano.... kind of like where its heading after the one take wonder before... Any other suggestions are very welcome…

Putting my own stank on a cover from another mother. Jeff is brilliant and so is Stevie Wonder who wrote and George Martin who produced Jeff's Grammy winning version. What Greatness!

I'm fascinated currently with alter'd tunings and I don't mean the altered open guitar tunings used in a lot of acoustic folk, celtic and instrumental guitar which I have done and they are all great and inspiring. I'm speaking of the alter'd…

well done..
Good stuff
Compelling interpretation of a powerful poem. Great job, guys! Tess
Great track, Vaisvil. Strong sounds, well constructed... evocative without having to do too much.

Brilliant, yawl. I swear I could be happy listening to B read a phone book.
like it good mood
Just realized I really like this song, but rarely hear it. You may have topped the original.
Definitely sounds like an Indian influence here. Nice work Chris. I like the tone too, sounds like a really good guitar. Bethan
Really nice! I gotta get me an old electric and pull the frets off sometime!
Not what I was expecting at all but they are there, on the end.I think you are getting good at this Chris. Yes, very clever. Cheers Bee

man you sound like Gilmore on this! Voice and guitar!
Ha!
nice that you are doing it all - you've grown alot in musicianship over the years!
this is so touching...
There is something very vital here. I really like it.
Zeppelin III had a lot of special songs and this was one of them - excellent choice and execution!
Great!
This is wonderful!
Love - indeed too long!
This as well is wonderful too!
This is certainly one of the best I've heard by an internet artist, period. Superb writing and performance.
Lovely song and performance!
Beautiful piece!
look on youtube for this Thomas Dolby - The Devil Is An Englishman
that is some great guitar and vocal! Love the harmonica too!
I agree with fairynuff! And thanks for the comments!
