The faucet drips the wind don’t blow
The sun won’t set the day is long
When I’m away and you’re not here
The time is slow because love is gone
Shadows creep across the lawn
The day won’t end to bring the dawn
I’m not here my thoughts they…

Half a step

I make an unsettling sound
Devil in the details
Music is the thing
The flatted fifth
Makes a diabolic ring

Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how

How could he allow

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
For the daughters of two of my favorite people.
Bonfire Lullaby
Dannah studies my hands while I play
With heavy eyes at the end of a runaround day
Fading fast ‘neath a summer night’s sky
No need to wonder why

A homage to Steve Hackett (who wrote this piece)

This is played using John O'Sullivan's Blue JI tuning. Pianoteq and Kontakt didn't play nice together so I had add 4.81 cents to all of the flute notes.

Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Nice
Ooh yeah! Love it
Super scary…. What happens if we play it backwards like the White Album?
You’re scaring me man. That’s some evil rock and roll there. I love it!
Acoustic guitar slaps and pops with loopy loops wow. :) BW
Now that is pretty classy and cool ..... and I'm checking out that tuning ... mind you !?!? ....

Your mood really comes thru in the music. Hope it all works out.
Inventive and free. Is the cat like a tree falling in a forest?
The Dark Riders are near. Wish this were 10 times longer!
Simply lovely. Will have to search for more Scartaglen.
Great work yawl. Even rivals the great Vincent Price's recitation.
Ha!
I must echo everyone else. Beautiful songwriting.
Fantastic, inventive stuff.
This just seems to float in the air and tickle the ears. Nice epi.

Hackett and this one are a big fave of mine, nice take on a beautiful melody.
Whoosh! Yeah!
Doing some different things with the owl here. Liking the vocal/bass harmony groove.
Yes, it happens.
yay!
Call Neil! He'd like this one.
Nice one, m. Drums are my A heel too, working on that. I like the beats and mix here.
Rocks
Really sweet. Sad but hopeful. Keep on.
Cool. May take ye up on that one.
