I purchased a new M-Audio midi keyboard during RPM. The software alone was worth the $100.
There was no chance I was wasting any time during RPM with a learning process.
Today, I got the opportunity to install the software and plug it in. This…
Hi folks - Uncle Paul is back at it after a 4 month hiatus from music.
Sometimes I just have to walk away from it. I'm sure most of you know what I'm talking about.
I forced myself through the 2012 RPM Challenge

Someone's opened my ears (not sure who, but it's probably someone on here) - I started listening to this the other day and thought "yeah, it's ok" and stopped it after 30 seconds to look for something else.
I love the title though, so I just gave it another go... well, someone's opened my ears since then! Like it a lot :-)
The first of 4 tunes coming your way with
the spotlight on my friend "Michael Thomas of Cave Street"

This one is my favorite and chills me every time I hear it.
It never, ever, gets old.
Until Then (Shine…
Missed this originally. Love it.
I'm a sucker for songs with the word "shine" in anyway (I've used it several times over the years, myself). I just LOVE the word and the concept of "shine" when it's applied to humans - seems to be a really powerful trigger. I would use it in every song I write if I could!!! (Would kind of waste it's power though lol)
And this one doesn't waste it... a really beautiful song and performance. Faved.
This song is the concluding song on my RPM Challenge February album. It is a good-bye to the project.

Not a good-bye to Alonetone
or anything else.
SEE YA
It has been a lot of fun

an overcast rainy day here in south calif.. i sat at my piano in the morning and this just sort of sprang out on the keyboard... since im learning about electric guitars this feb (for rpm) i spent the day playing with different amps and effects…
I am learning a bit more each day about how to write/compose for guitar ,, quite fun. This RPM piece is dedicated for our 16 and 1/2 year old mini red Dachshund,, Howie.. though blind and mostly deaf, and recovering from illness, he still…
This song has been the biggest mess of the month. It was the second idea I had, the first that wasn't dropped. I have fought with it more than any other song I've ever recorded. The drum parts have been recorded twice. They rhythm guitars have…
I wrote this song while out hiking some awesome trails in Zion National Park... gave me some excellent inspiration. I also tried some different stuff with the mixing and using my keyboard... so trying to push a few of my envelopes...

Acoustic first take recording including all my natural mistakes of a song made many years ago, as I keep telling myself, one day I will make an upbeat backing track for it and see what comes out of it....hmmm.... one day yeah....
I got touched by an article I read about an Irish chap that saw a girl on a plane he fell in love with at first sight (ha, I never knew that existed !!!) He could not forget about her, so decided to do a “Sherlock Holmes” and was determent to…
This is a fun idea Greg has, and I can't wait to hear more.
He sent me an acoustic and vocal track and asked me to complete it.
I stayed up most of the night jammin' it. :)
It's a bit loose around the edges because I didn't work anything…
This was my first Alonetone collaboration with Louis Smit.
At the time, Louis was Last Salute Folk.
I'm adding this to song to my last CD because it was my first collab.
Thanks Louis.
Remixed unplugged.
I removed all the electric guitars and synths.
I also replaced the lead with a harmonica, re-recorded my backups, and ran the bass track through a fretless patch.
I like this version.
Thanks Michael - You've been a wonderful…
This is the third, maybe forth time I recorded this tune.
I like this one best.

Yea, so I'm just another telling you that you write good love songs and superb southern American music.
Keep it up man, I'm a groupie for sure.
Need someone to take loving care of your gear on the road??
I'm applying for the job.
I work cheap and tune to Concert A 440.
I can intonate as well. :)
I'd be more than happy to play piano, guitar, bass, synth, banjo, washboard, tamborine, woodblocks, anything.
Shit, I'd jam a garbage can to jam with you.
