A Doc Watson inspired piece.Although some obvious double entendres leave the interpretation to the listener.

New strings and an old song. Saw the Staple Family Singers do this live in the late 60's.

Bm,A,E,then an inside chord progression. Rafting on the Suannee River. Overarching trees gave a tunnel/canyon feel.

I was recording some warmup stuff. A bird landed outside and contributed a counterpoint of his own.

The odd chord I use is a D diminished 7th.

Early Americana.

Railroad rightofways are often seeded with hemp as a soil erosion measure. Hiking the unused tracks are a delight in midsummer.

Growing up in Ohio we used to see the signs the hoboes left on trees and mailboxes. Bits of ribbons and cloth-signifying friendly,and-cold hearted bastards who'd sic the dogs on you.

Mason Williams variation on a theme.Goofin on the title.

From the vault of early computer recordings. It was in WAV format til I converted it to mp3. $10 LabTech mic,brand new strings.

Two guitar tracks and banjo

Anyone who has been through a messy breakup can relate to this song.

In the old days you could dodge the collectin man if your money wasn't right.Nowadays they can remotely shut off your lights,cable,internet-put your stuff out on the curb. So this is a bittersweet trip down nostalgia lane.

One of those progressions I can't get finished enough to call a complete song.In A.BTW if you load this to Audacity and seperate the stereo tracks,you can mute or delete the right hand track and add your own.

Remember the waitress in the Blues Brothers saying,"Oh,we got both kinds of music. Country and western" This melody hearkens back to the day when we was raping and pillaging the land. Killing off the buffalo and the Indians and generally trying…

My apologies if I ripped off your riff-

The decending line is about the coolest musical concept. Ear candy,and it can be Major or minor scale.Love my effects,but there's no substitution for plain old technique.

More sonic stylings.

Digitech RP-50 turned loose on a Civil War era melody.

The riff came from Bad Boyz. The story came from my life experience.
