Alley Way Blues

Unrehearsed Improv

The following is the YouTube video we recorded of the same audio of “Wingin It” except we titled the YouTube vid “Goddamned Blues” 

This was improvised and we actually videotaped it and put it on YouTube and it turned out really well. Once again it was unrehearsed we just started playing and it turned out well we hope y’all all enjoy

The following link is to our YouTube vid out playing this live in the Rv , oh yeah our studio is in an RV, but you gotta make do or do nothing 🤷

Wingin It

Improv is our bread and butter. This was another improvisation Jon and I performed last summer and it turned out very well at the beginning of last year I recordings you could hear they were not as full, but they progressed overtime and we learned how to record better by learning what not to do and this is an example

Dessert Mountain Pass

Unrehearsed jam that's a heavy monster. If you commute to work early in the am, listen to this in the car to wake up

Maglight's Out

Saxon Mother's attempt to write a psychedelic Beatles-era song. First song where drums were added (by Jon "One Take" Miller). We were very young when this was done and it was the first milestone we reached. It was completely influenced by the Beatles and the objective was to make a song that Lennon and McCartney would write.

Lyrics: You don't know what you started with, but I told you this all before...

She walks (she walks), She talks (she talks) To him (to him) My girl, his girl

She crawls (she crawls) All her life (all her life) Just wants him to be satisfied

She runs (she runs) To hide (to hide) From Fear (from him) They're dead, they're alive

Dont rule (don't rule) Me out (dont rule him out) I'm just looking for love deep inside

I was a good person, but no one ever listened, now I'm gone for good, up late at nights....with no rights

Madam Shelby was pretentious, she did well and was conscientious, now 
she's raising to borrow time. Up late at night with no fight....

You dont (wait) Cocen(trate) Hello(hey)
Soft spring(may) Hanging(nay) Reason(pay)

Jerome was just a person, only had one version of life now his wife is gone for good...she past at night with no fight.

He always tried his best til he wound down to his last breath now he's gone for good, agonized, with no fight

You dont (wait) Cocen(trate) Hello(hey)
Soft spring(may) Hanging(nay) Reason(pay)

Interlude
Solo

Marcy was broken woman, five children and empty bottles scattered on the floor. They needed light since there's no fight

Tell us how it goes then, you will crash with sin, now you're gone for good
You're not right with no fight...

You're Fight's Gone

Fucking Winners

In The Zones w voices

This, along with "Maglight's Out" are probably the heaviest improvisational jams we've laid down. Definitely listen if you're getting pumped up for work, watching you're team, preparing for the village cockfight. Heavy blues rock at its finest performed by Saxon Mother, the loudest and heaviest track probably on our list. Enjoy!

Burnside tribute improv

Unrehearsed jam that Jon pulled off in October of 2024

Filthy STreets Pt4 10/4/23

This improvisation was the second of 2 in March of 2023

March Improv II

A cover of the Pink Floyd song but wit our stamp on it

In the flesh

This jam branched off from one we had been tinkering with and has a catchy guitar riff. Rock out and enjoy

Hate and Anger in 2024

We Do NOT OWN copy right on this song. Its a cover close to Nirvana's Unplugged rendition. David Bowie is the song writer, not Kurt Cobain, Andrew Rhodes or Jon Miller. We made our own bass line up because Novoselic's bass line was vanilla. I made up a Bossa Nova bass line and Jon did the rest on the set and he added bongos. Enjoy!

The Man Who Sold The World

After a brief stint at a pysch ward (yeah, I'm out there), there was one patient named Malachi and he liked to run around the ward with his gown tied around his neck like some caped crusaded......hence: Great Cape Malachi. Rockin

Great Cape Malachi

This is Part 3 of the filthy street saga (4 in all). FYI all 4 were recorded back to back with no respite in between

Filthy Streets Pt3

This was improvised but the title "Old Country" came from the country Ireland since both Jon and I are of Irish decent. While listening, down a guinness and some potatoes 

Old Country

We DONT OWN the COPRIGHTS to this song. It's based on the main opening theme from Terminator 2 Judgement Day. It was composed by Brad Fiedel. This is just our rendition.

Judgment Day

Lyrics (some say they’re hard to decipher) 

Pieces on floor, pieces right to me
Tell me where to go, pain pills life is slow 

You don’t know me, baby I don’t know either
You fit me just all right scaring me with your fright, lick my wounds at night, pray don’t pray, it’s not right 

Public disturbance, official nuisance 
You impress with your wit, I think you’re full of shit 

You don’t know me, baby I don’t know either
You fit me just all right scaring me with your fright, lick my wounds at night, pray don’t pray, it’s not right



This was a complete experiment and modeled after going through a period of listening to Aenima by TOOL. To this day neither one of us know what time signature its in, but it works. A megaphone was even used on the vocals like Maynard (singer of TOOL). The drums were laid down last and Jon just had listen to it once and then he nailed it in one take. His nickname became "one take Jon" after his performance on this track

Ration

This song was done by The Doors on their last album. WE WROTE NONE OF IT AT ALL, ALL CREDIT GOES TO THE DOORS. We just made it slightly more electric. "Mr. MOJO RISIN"

LA Woman

This is originally by The Jimi Hendrix Experience and written BY JIMI HENDRIX. This is our rendition. It’s a more obscure track by The Experience and on the Are You Experienced lp. Once again, this a show of respect to one of our influences and we took no part in writing it.

Remember

This is a cover not written by Saxon Mother, it was written and performed by Lee Hazelwood, a baritone voiced ( I prefer his voice over Johnny Cash) country performer known for his duets was Nancy Sinatra , this is our rendition and tip of our hat to him. Enjoy!

Think Im Comin Down

Once again, an unrehearsed jam. We got the name "Medium Rare" from thinking it was a raw improv jam. Guitar was performed on a pink Fender Jagstang, the Kurt Cobain designed guitar

Medium Rare

Record on July 28th 2023, This is yet another improvisation. Hope you all enjoy!

The Terrain

This is a cover. "King of Carrot Flowers Pt 1" was written and performed by the band Neutral Milk Hotel. We own no copyrights and this is just a rendition inspired but the original track. Hope you enjoy!

King of Carrot Flowers Pt 1

The music to this song is finished, its actually gonna be the last song on our LP and heavily influenced by "A Day In The Life" by the beatles. You'll hear this obviously from around the middle of the song to the end and especially the very last chord that's struck to finish the song(and album) There are no lyrics or melody yet, but its STILL very entertaining as an instrumental. And if you know the song "A Day In the Life", you'll see exactly what we were getting at.

Echo In the Garden

Before I describe the band, I want to make an important announcement : EVERY SONG YOU HEAR ON OUR PAGE RIGHT NOW WAS RECORDED IN A CRAMPED, HOT RV. WE DID NOT HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF HAVING THE MONEY TO RENT A STUDIO, BUT THE PASSION AND LOVE FOR MUSIC OVER THAT AND THAT’S WHY WE WORKED TO A T AND WE’RE PERFECTIONISTS. WE HAVE MORE PASSION AND LOVE FOR MUSIC AND OUR PINKY FINGERS THAN MOST OF THE WHOLE WORLD COMBINED AND THAT’S NOT EXAGGERATION. THAT IS THE TRUTH JON AND I LIVE AND BREATHE MUSIC. IT IS WHAT MAKES US LIVE. IT IS OUR BLOOD. IT IS OUR OXYGEN AND WE WANT TO SPEARHEAD ROCK ‘N’ ROLL RENAISSANCE BECAUSE THE ROCK ‘N’ ROLL WAS IN THE 60S AND 70S I THINK THAT’S A FOUR CONCLUSION AND MUSIC IS NOT WHAT IT WAS AND IT’S TIME TO GO BACK TO BASICS AND RESPECT IT AND LEARN THAT TYPE OF MUSIC AND THE RULES THAT WENT WITH IT AGAIN BECAUSE THAT IS RESPECTING THE GREATEST GENERATION JUST LIKE MILITARY VETERANS RESPECT WORLD WAR II VETERANS BECAUSE THEY WERE THE GREATEST GENERATION THAT SAVED THE WORLD THANK YOU NOW :

We are Saxon Mother, a 2 piece rock band based out of Elizabeth City,NC . Andrew Rhodes on guitars and bass and Jon Miller on Drums and percussion. Our first album, which will be a double album, should be released in about 2 months. The first side is actual recorded songs with many different instruments while the second side will be improvisations. We’re heavily inspired by Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Rush, The Doors mainly classic rock, but also literally everything else and we want to play all types of genres instead of sticking with one genre. We feel there should be songs on our albums that at least everyone should like at least one instead of the whole album being one type of music.

It should be known we recorded with the 16 track mixer that we had purchased a computer and a extremely cramped RV did not deter us one bit. The passion of music is much stronger than being in a tight space there were days we sweated our asses off there were days that were chilly, but every day ended impeccable tracks being recorded. We felt like anyone that was in a professional studio could be called Goliath and as you know the story, David always conquered Goliath and we feel like we can conquer “” Goliath and have already, our goal is to start a rock ‘n’ roll Renaissance music similar to the great era of the 60s and 70s because that’s the greatest rock music ever. I do not respect the popular music today. It’s a joke there needs to be a retro respect for the great like the Beatles and Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd and we will do that if it takes our whole life and we will be the best.
