Field recording from SE Peru. Came across this pissed off spider monkey and decided to record a few minutes of this vocal bout. I'm not sure what elicited such a vocal temperament, and of course, at the time, I was worried it was a large cat…

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.

@ Mannequin Races. Yeah, that's me on the electric guitar... not much of a lead guitar player but I enjoy dabbling.
@ Sister best lyrics? Must be the hangover talking :-) thanks for the compliments! It's not nearly as pretty as your oceanic stuff, but I guess I was going for more dangerous waters, yeay!
@ Gumbo, I'll start brainstorming lyrics for a new pirate tune! Looking forward to yours.

Just a spontaneous (and very rough) two hour tune. Written and recorded yesterday, edited and mixed today. I might as well get it uploaded now because I'll be spending the next two weeks preparing to move across the country.

This song was made by two different piano samples (both
from Sudara):
1. One was recorded by Sudara (and gang?) axing away at a hapless old piano in New Mexico.
2. today, I convinced Sudara to noodle on the piano and send it over to me…
Thanks, man. Let's do it when you can. Where are you heading?
Best; safe travels (Hmm? By the way, might you know Steve Tibbett's record of the same name [safe travels]?)

The song was constructed around a field recording of Lacandon men paddling across the lake in Métzabok, Chiapas (Southern Mexico). The Lacandon speak "Hach T'an," which is a Mayan dialect-- this is the language you hear in the track. Unfortunately…
Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
ahhh Kirk, there is a world of darker glu that I've carefully buried here for excavation! This one was made with mandolin and the plucking of piano strings..
08 – Feeling Confuzzzed. Written 19th/20th Feb. Recorded 20th Feb.
Come on Wembley, let’s see those hands in the air. As poppy as they come, including plenty of la la las to sing along with. I was very pleased with my Harrison-style slide…
This one was originally slated for the RPM, but I never got to it. I put together this layout one day, and it hasn't progressed since then, but vocals are coming. Does anyone have Tom Waits' phone number?
aspiring abductee pleas with alien to beam him into her ship.
Just a slight rework from early this year. New mix and vocals sometime in the near future. I'm lazy.
Summer Sadness indeed! But bittersweet sadness is best when captured in a smooth tune like this! I loved instrument-switching when I was in a band. cheers.
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
thanks! these are just short brainstorms... you are right, the last one sounds like an ending to a track... Maybe that's what it will eventually become, who knows!
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
A track that I put on hold for the RPM Challenge.
Of course, now I can't really remember where I was going with it... but to have used it in the challenge would have been cheating.
What I do remember was that I had just discovered and fallen…
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).

Nice instrumentation as always. I like it when the song goes crazy around the 1:10 mark. Is that you playing guitar or something/someone else?
Typical glu instrumentation is so nice to listen to...
Songs about the Sea. Yes. And on the sea ... ships? ... and in the ships? PIRATES?? No? Oh. Sorry.
great sound and mix. love the feel at around 1 min
Where you headed glu? I just love this song...As always the sound is perfection, but this song is so charming and beautiful...just great. Thanks!
Thanks, man. Let's do it when you can. Where are you heading? Best; safe travels (Hmm? By the way, might you know Steve Tibbett's record of the same name [safe travels]?)
I was not there for the event unfortunately :(
@ The Good Lord Sluk thanks! I'm happy to hear that you like it so much! Were you there for the event?
Oooh- this is great. I'm enjoying the whole album while working in the shop

Thanks for this fine music --and for taking the time to listen/comment on mine. Lets colab someday -w/ some of the other cats on here. Best
great ! ;)
