6:54 of pure entertainment. Thanks for sharing. What kind of mic do you use for recording??

This came directly from an improv. It's a Taylor 814 CE in standard tuning with a capo on the second fret. It's similar to Managerie in structure but has a very different feel.

This is pretty interesting, I wish I could put together acoustic songs like this too. Also, you seem to have gotten a much better mix/EQ than I've managed on acoustic songs :)

This track is off the third CD. It reminds me of the feeling that one has when having to do something that we'd rather not do. Recorded with my Godall 12 in standard tuning.
