A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

So, while tinkering in your shop you spy the new H4 sitting there, beckoning. You grab the guitar and spontaneously generate this very pretty thing, to break in the H4. It's another impressive performance! To respond to your question... I plan to be here, at least to listen to the great music. Barriers to recording include all the usual, oceans, stubborn equipment, yada yada. Eventually, there will be more music.

Ooh, gorgeous flowing guitar work... for some reason it reminds me a bit of a cross between Micheal Hedges and Ottmar Liebert!? Always wonderful when something is played skillfully enough to sound effortless :-) ttfn, Drakonis

Just a beautiful song! It leads the mind away to somewhere far away...

there is a great melodic feel to this study super clean guitar sounds, too you're a 'fera' of the fretboard, as the brazilians would say. (fera= 'wild animal' - which somehow gets used colloquially as "musical genius") thanks for your kind words re: Wanna go home. The chords are taken from a bossa nova tune - Quando Chegares - by Carlos Lyra - a great bossa songwriter.

I knew this was recorded in the shop because I can feel the spirit of craft in the melody, if that makes any sense. You must make real magic there.

yeah, i just checked out Kirk's site. Those look like some sweep pipes! Wish I could afford your talented craftsmanship, those instruments look very inspiring!

Guest said

this is absolutely one of the most tasteful acoustic guitar pieces i've ever heard. the transitions are all natural and believable. this is incredible, and i mean that sincerely. i like the rest of what you've recorded, but i really enjoyed listening to this. it caught my attention and held it on more than one occasion.

Guest said

Love it, Kirk! What amazing reeds you must make!

nice classical/electric sound and good fretboard work i especially liked the chromatic downdrift in the main chordal theme.
