This song is inspired by the struggles currently going on in Syria....here are the lyrics:
Out in the streets, an awakening has begun
You brandish posters, they point a gun
Scrawled on the pavement with blood and tears
Says we the people…
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.
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
New York Times, in an article today
"Hamburgers in Paris!" Its on the front page
Everybody wants it. McDonalds in Paris
Everybody wants it
Has the taste of the forbidden. Illicit and subversive.
You can print it out. You can write it cursive…
My "banjo-centric" arrangement of this old minstrel show tune. I recorded it for backing tracks for my live set. I kind of wanted a fiddle solo, but I don't play fiddle. So in the middle there's a little "fiddle synthesizer" - just a couple of…
This is the original version of WILD BILL
that I submitted to Production back in '95
when I was working on the film. It got set aside
when the music was forwarded from Ry Cooter to Van Dyke Parks.
One day I came in from work and Peggy…
Years ago, in Winter, a friend of mine sent me pictures from Moscow, where she lives. And that inspired me to write this "soundtrack".
The vocal theme is "sung" by Vocaloid, a software singer. Unfortunately I don't have a singer of that calibre…
This is the new version of one of the tracks from my new project… rerecordings of some of my early solo recordings. This is definitely the most significantly altered arrangement in the project so far. I was almost ready to scrap it entirely until…
The first of three tracks in this year's "Winter Sketches" EP. As preparation for my concept for this year's RPM Challenge, ALL SOUNDS were produced on an iPhone. The apps used for this song include Argon, Funkbox, Beatmaker, Filtatron and NESynth.
In memory of my Friend who was bigger than life, and an ego the size of Lake Superior.

High stepping, loud talking

Just a few stories recieved on email regarding our friend:
Eric always tells the store about when Jim was trying to get into his
little Buick Skylark to go to lunch. Of course because Jim was so big he
had to hold on the top of the car and lower himself in. Well Eric decides
to wash his windshield and shoots washer fluid all over Jim while he's
stuck trying to get in the car. Eric had to pay to dry clean his suit.

I've been thinking lately of all the stories about him. Like when I would take him out to lunch. He'd order some big thing like the broiled trout, toss salad with oil and vinegar and more.
Then the waitress would look at me. I would say "I'll have what Dad's having".
He would erupt claiming "I'm not your father you Bastard!"
Good Times ... Good Times! I still giggle when I think about some of his antics.

I remember when he bought his first BMW. I asked him what kind of millage he got. He said "Who gives a shit"

I was in his office trying to present some promotion. He dropped his head on the desk when I mentioned the price, and it scared the hell out of me.
I thought he had a heart attack, and I was going to have to give him mouth to mouth
Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Fun song. Great collection of sounds. Smooth, righteous mixing. Great job!
The man on harmonica sounds like he's been at it hard for 3 to 5! Had to come by for a second helping. Great song -- Rock on!
Nice collab, :)
Git down, git dirty. I think you've found a huge source for song ideas.
Oh yeah,
Good one.
Currently Kicking Ass and rightly So!

Smooth . . . Thanks for showing how it's done.
Nice guitar playing.
Great song, and I'm very happy to not be able to relate to the subject matter.
A heartfelt song with plenty of raw emotion. I agree with Steve! One of your finest.
I like that Drop D, fragmented chord sound. The harmonics were a nice touch too.
This is incredible Kirk. I hope you have more of these recordings. They're fantastic.
This is GREAT! You're making me hungry.
Beautifully played. You can really get some nice tone out of that guitar.
Now . . . my feet are tapping! Nice Picking Robert!
Good harmony, and good recreation of an old classic.
Good kitchen music!
Great story telling! Be careful . . . You might bring up the spirit of Townes VanZant too! There is nothing better than a wistful song.
Oh my gosh! That's pretty.
Hey Roger, do you mind if I use Steve's line too?
Very pretty Roger! Sounds like snuggling music ... you old softy!
Beautiful . . . And rich sounding.
I like the bass in this!
This one hit the spot.
