Thanks for the kind comments everyone, it's given me inspiration to actually sit down and do something again...yeah, I do have a penchant for short tracks, something I've never seem to overcome. (I'm lucky to ever have any time to record, and usually when I do I've only got hour or so from plugging in to final "mix.") However, in this case I accidentally erased my backing track before I barely got started, so I just went with what I had...in this case it actually probably would have been much longer. Going back and doing it over later wasn't an option, I always go with the flow, never work with anything pre-prepared.

Yeah, I knew you'd catch that one. I'm thinking about taking trad tune titles and writing my own music to them...I may go sans looper for the rest though.

Thanks, I appreciate the comment...I'm so over due on another recording. Glad you commented it, at least it got me back to alonetone for some listening.
I like a bit of Mr Young and often do a few of his songs at open mike nights etc. this is one recorded as it happened onto a hand held recorder. bit rough round the edges, but so is Neil.
Well the votes are in and nobody, who has commented, seems to think I have offended against Satie with this. That's kind of cool because this really is one of my favourite pieces of music and one that I hope, one day, to be able to play myself…
Kublai Khan attacked on Fukuoka Prefecture in 1281, mobilizing 140,000 soldiers and 4,000 ships. The Japanese defenders, numbering around 40,000, were no match for the Mongols and the invasion force made it as far as Dazaifu, 15 kilometers south…
for REALZ, this is way far from being done. this is an oldie from a previous duo I was in, VC Andrews, (http://www.myspace.com/vcandrews) and i wanted to give it new life. Listen to the old version at the myspace page to hear how it's going to…
Memories of walking a coonhound in the small hours around the empty structures of Baltimore's Artscape festival before dawn- silent ferris wheel standing behind the rows of booths, vacant carnival installations on the Charles St Bridge. In this…
Now ye sons of the kraaken, let's get to some honest pillaging, shall we? Aaaarh!
The devil is an idle jest compared to what's within this chest
No hearts more black than ours they say

else they…

I've been working on this one little by little; now I'm at a point where I do not feel like revisiting the feeling. Moves from 3/4 to 4/4, or so I think.. kind of like a 7/4 time sig but not really. typical glu instrumentation, etc.
Everyone…
This is a real old tune. I remember about 81 or so. My brother Asa wrote it.
I felt like recording something, so this is it.
A rude kinda fun song with that cowboy stylin' :)
Lyrics:
It didn't take me long
to find out you were wrong
when you…
Similar in feel to the other Fragile Moment track. Mostly acoustic guitars recorded sitting in my shop on the H4N and then finished up in Cubase just this morning. September 9 09. Maybe a nice one for bedtime
Glu and Sister Savage bring you these remixes!

This one is pure pop. Voice pitched 1/2 step up.
Comments on dougsparling's stuff
Guitar wonderment. Proof positive one doesn't have to be fast or flashy to be a guitar wizard. Like the extended length also.
Another special something from Doug Sparling...just utterly gorgeous!
A beautifully played and melodic, dreamy piece.
(I'm still raving about this. It's just perfect.)
Still like this old track of yours man!

Great great great. But as always too short.
This is a BEAUTY! w;-)
Nice one man!
Oh I love how this just dances along!
Inspiring. I can't wait for my guitar lessons to resume!
This is beauty. Glad to see you back in action, Doug. Can't wait to hear the rest of your 24 when it's done.
Yeah, I knew you'd catch that one. I'm thinking about taking trad tune titles and writing my own music to them...I may go sans looper for the rest though.
Nice one man, but no fair stealing titles from trad tunes!!
I like that noise you're making...
Very cool! I really like the Ebow too.
Thanks, I appreciate the comment...I'm so over due on another recording. Glad you commented it, at least it got me back to alonetone for some listening.
Holy crap! How did I miss this before? C'est formidable!
Was just going to comment that this is wonderful, but apparently I already have! I am consistent, and this is STILL wonderful.
digging the library! nice cross cut of styles!
