The theme for Improv Friday this week is "variations". So here's an improv reconstruction of the one classical piece I know, Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
A friend of mine once called this kind of jam session "noodling", as in "straight from your noodle (pointing to his head) to the guitar". This is a primo "noodling" session.

Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.

really not much synth, all experiments with effects over guitars and then stretched or feedback recording problems that turned into dial tone like drone sounds. Awesome either way you brought it, dude!

A blues noodle that got out of Hand just before the midnight curfew...........trying my hand at a bit of keyboard percussion and the voice through a guitar effect........well you have to try don't you?
If this was a film, at this point indistinct but decidedly menacing figures would be detaching themselves from the shadows and moving slowly but purposefully towards the prey...
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
This was excellent. One of my many failings is the inability to fingerpick anywhere near as well as this. Well done. ER
