Here is my latest song, I was playing around with my Tele into my Adrenalinn III pedal with its beat sync'd effects which gave me some of the sounds here.
Well, my son and I were sitting around the backyard last night. A nice fire going, I was playing my acoustic, and we heard this crazy cricket chirping away very close to us. My son asked if I could record him with my "machine". Out came the…
Firstly: This is SOOOO Excellent!!! In years gone by I also have been inspired by the cricket songs here in the deep south...
Secondly: POST THE WORDS (please)! Us old folks' ears need the assistance...
Thirdly: I truly hope I'm the first member of the Berry and Berry (B&B for short) fan club!!!

A folky ballad about the trials and tribulations that happen during home recording, in this particular case using a Boss microBR.

Morning light on the mountain stream,
catches the eye of the child within his dreams.
The day begins, present and aware,
of all the beauty, he plays without a care.
Castles on the riverbank, a choir of birds in song,
picking spring flowers in…

This is an "unplugged" version of a song that features a nylon stringed acoustic guitar. All instruments played by Barry Morgan and mixed and mastered in his home studio.
Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
I'm proud to say this is one of the weirdest songs I've ever done. I got some more use out of the beer bottle here, this time hitting it with a pencil instead of blowing on it.
On a cold and lonely trip through hyperspace, our protagonist wonders whether he'll ever see the sunrise on Ganymede again. (All sounds produced acoustically!)
The Music tells the story. we all carry our true selves inside, and experience those who would tell us we are someone else. take this home, light a candle, dance widdershins, blow some smoke to the six directions.... and be free
I hear the sound of one heart breaking
an I wonder whose it is
then I come to realize
I'm the only one there is
oh how'd I get so far away
how has it come to this
of all the things I've had and lost
there's only one I really miss…
A typical folk song.
Written and recorded in about an hour for the 24 hour album (attempted on March 13th). Excuse roughness and vocal glitches, it was 2am and this was my first full take.
Thanks to montgomeru for his chord suggestions…
Thank God for Daniel Johnston, thank god for people who keep his music alive by reminding everybody just how incredible are his songs. This is a very good cover of this song. Thanks for the introduction to Daniel and his incredible music.
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
Part 2 - Courtroom and Sentencing.
Courtroom.
In which Angela cross examines the accused and his accomplice.
Sentencing.
In which Judgement is passed.
Call the first witness
Make you take the stand
Raise up your right hand…
