This is a more jazzy version of "The Devil drives a Volvo". Got help from my brother on the drums on this recording.
Vocals were recorded in a rented mini cooper south in spain :)
lyrics:
The Devil drives a Volvo
and wears a flannel shirt…
Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
here's the lyrics:
Inside a casket, ... broken dreams
six feet under, it starts to leak
six feet over he gets a whiff
assembles the puzzle piece by piece
on salty water a thought is born
sailing regardless of a coming storm
the mast is broken…
Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
Written and recorded in a couple of hours late one night.
I pick up the telephone
and dial the number
I run down the street
I don't mind the thunder
I can get no answer
Can't go back to my slumber
I turn the corner slip and fall
I hit…
Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

Having uploaded a song with the same title, I couldn't resist listening to this :) I'm glad I did. This is beautiful. Your voices blend perfectly and are a treat to listen to. I love those harmonies !
Previously released as "a little moon music", Here, used as the background for a video i made in Oct of Great White Sharks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iX5R3lrxmYs
This is not the typical Discovery Channel version, here i saw the more languid…
With his lottery money Reg has invested in becoming a funk star. The other reg came up with the tune and Reg jumped all over the thing......come and get funky with thetwoReg
Another dirty mp3 sent 'round the world. Kind of like a musical chain letter :) A song I wrote about out of body experiences. It showed up finished in my email one day - No kidding!!!
Another song entirely created by the Boss Micro BR…
Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…
Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
Really fun to listen to as well. Can imagine that fretless is hard to master, but you've sure done it. Fretless+ebow seems like a winning combo in your hands !!
So Jim of "Movement to Contact" asked me a couple of weeks ago to send him something...
I had no idea how ridiculously good the final result would come out.
KL: Vocals, lyrics, left side rhythm guitar and picking
MTC: Lead guitar, bass…
An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track
