Haha! Pwnd by the phone company once again. I feel your pain. The chain saw solution caught me by surprise, but sounded effective.
It would probably be a very bad idea for you to ever collaborate with ReefWalker about this topic... he has a history of many phone problems as well.

Somebody should create an album of songs dealing with phone problems on AT - a recurring theme!
This is a rough mix of a track I did with the one & only Norm Harris. I've got some vocals in mind, but it may take some time to put it together, so meanwhile here's the instrumental version. Big thanks & major props to Norm…
In the morning, when we awoke, there was nothing. There were no ashes from the fires of the previous evening. The time for decisions was past. "Yes" was the answer to all questions; and none was the knowledge retained. Wisdom laughs at such folly…
you say i got no reason
to be here knockin' on your door
i guess ya had no reason
to think you might see me anymore
hey I got some news for you
yes i do
y'know i seen a lot
of different things
through these two eyes
i've heard…

Yes, RW's sitar works very well here. Nice! I confess that I don't know what a tenpura is, but then I thought a hurdy-gurdy had something to do with a busking monkey... now I realize its a wheel fiddle, which I've never come close to seeing or hearing.
I still want one of those things with the monkey hitting folks up for change in his little cup, whatever it's called.

yes! this is great - the two of you rock together - and Hurdy Gurdy!! Awesome!! If I may be so bold perhaps a recorder or flute - or best a shawm melody would work.

I'm at work & listening to this now... still not quite satisfied with the intonation of the hurdy-gurdy (I had to pitch shift the sample I found). Reefwalker has done an excellent remix which I will probably upload this evening provided he gives his permission.

I love this track... rambling is right! I'm loving the deconstruction going on from about 6 minutes in. *Stellar* minimalist soundscape you've created here. ;-) Well done!
My RPM challenge this year: acoustic guitar instrumental album with no more than three tracks on each tune (ok, maybe four!)
This one is a single track with no overdubs. On the 12 string, the 4th,5th and 6th string pairs are tuned a fourth apart.
Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
2011 according to Regs research was pretty shit for most apart from the couple from England......it thought i would use a Chinese theme to the music being that they own it and it was the year they were able to buy most of it cheap.....note to…
This is the second song from this amazing collaboration with Michael Thomas of Cave Street.

It's not a Cave Street collab. but rather a project by Thomas - Lennon.
I do the music and mixing. Michael does…
12/30/2011 - Happy Birthday, my friend! The title of this track is exactly how I feel about doing more collabs with you! Hope you have a fantastic day & an awesome new year!
400 BULLETS
400 guns. 400 bullets.
400 babies in the grave.
You got your New Pearl Harbor
Now it’s time for a new Passover.
400 guns
400 guns. 400 bullets.
400 babies in the grave.
Buy your $10,000 dog
One bad steak and he’s a…
Hard rock song about losing faith....
Lyrics:
I'M GOING DOWN
Sedate it with barbiturates
Inject it with a needle
Calm this stirring anger
That I always feel
Lord, where are you
You've mocked my every prayer
Everything around…
An excellent song, I especially like the breakdown after the electric lead, it gets a bit psychedelic. Your vocal seemed tentative at first, but post solo you're singing like you mean it.
Lyrics and Chords:
Winter Solstice
Written by Greg Connor
When the G days are short, and the C evening’s so D long
And the C wind is D shaking the G trees
When the cold snow crunches C beneath your D feet
And your C cheeks are D…
another one from last RPM season that never got flushed out. we do play this regularly in practice and have played it in a few gigs as a intro jam for the second set. kind of reminds me of neil young meets the allman bros.
Sassy Nation version!
Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…
This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…

That's something different for you. Very cool track man!
Like it.
A little strange guys... strangely compelling. ;)
love the drone
Nice percussion!
reminds me of "nothing" off Bill Laswells city of light.... which is a good thing
Cool! Great guitar tones!
BEAUTIFUL TRACK
It certainly was fortunate for a lot of us the day Norm joined us. Now we are all unashamedly using him! This is a great track.
*laughing so hard it's hard to type @norm's comment*....That is one crazy picture you got on your profile bud. Is that your dog?

nice very nice deep forest mellow inside the cave there..
Real nice folksy tune. It has a bit of CSNY in it. I'm waitin' on the vox man. Saved, Fav'ed and turned to wav.
some Robert Plant-Zepplin IV style vox would be Killer!
yes! this is great - the two of you rock together - and Hurdy Gurdy!! Awesome!! If I may be so bold perhaps a recorder or flute - or best a shawm melody would work.

Sounding good over here! No, really great!
Even better now!
Had to listen again - love the fresh folky feel! Can't wait to hear your sublime vox in this potion!

This reminds me of California Guitar Trio, one of my favorite groups... This is beautiful, man.
I'm a sucker for a flanger, what can I say? Heavy tension in this one... another plus. You got vocals in mind?
Hey Kirk, thanks for listening. As always, I appreciate your comments. I'd love to hear an acoustic & pipe RPM from you.... any plans??
*F'N HEAVY, dude* Here's to 2012!
12/30/2011 - Happy Birthday, my friend! The title of this track is exactly how I feel about doing more collabs with you! Hope you have a fantastic day & an awesome new year!
*beautiful track*
what are you using for this spacious reverb sound?
nice
Woah, I missed this stuff! Damn, JMT... What can I say?? Keep rockin!
*Dig it!*
An excellent song, I especially like the breakdown after the electric lead, it gets a bit psychedelic. Your vocal seemed tentative at first, but post solo you're singing like you mean it.
Well done, indeed!
I hear ol Neil in there for sure! good stuff
*faved*
Nice groove! I need to check out the Mashine.
beautiful track!
Neat track! Thanks for sharing this special memory!
Nice version guys, great vocals, Stu! I'd like to hear more of your interpretations of alonetoner material.
Thanks Norm!!
