A little background to that comment perhaps... recently went to a seminar on recording acoustic guitar and I was struck by how difficult it is to get a decent sound and how even that decent sound pales in comparison to the live take. Thus, wish I was there to hear it in person.
great guitar work..reminds me of Lindsay Buckingham meets John Martyn meets Nick Drake...also very smooth vocals...also like how the song morphs into something totally different as it progresses...

This my first time…
Yo Bro
"Yo Bro" utilizes a simple riff as a starting point for a delightful jazz excursion, powered by Laing's on-the-money percussion.

It's a part of a documentary 15min. movie, I recently produced. The title of the movie is "Parvomaistora" - "The Grand Master".
Finally, I could produce the film about my father, who was a great inventor and blacksmith master - Ilia Kovachev…
What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman
A fingerpicky tune from the old days.
The different guitar voices (nylon string classical and Guild 12-string) were attained using a Line 6 Variax 600 modeling guitar. Great for recording, but I returned it because of some minor issues.
Yeah the Variax even had a cool banjo and sitar model! But I took it back to GC because the harmonics sounded tinny, nothing like an acoustic. A minor quibble, really.
Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment
Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
this is a beautiful piece.
You make the air fresher w/ this'n; thanks.
Thanks yawl. @mmi: everytime I record acoustic gtr it's always an experiment, and never seem to get it "real". But we keep trying.

Awesome recording. Wish I was in the room though.
You just put a smile on my face :) w;-)
I think it's awesome that I have no clue what your "tech" means. Doesn't stop me loving the sound :)
Amazing slide! Great song!
I'm a total sucker for this kind of thing anyway.Awesome!

I'm really diggin these fingerstyle pieces.
Lovely vocal treatment. Just a tad long.
Yeah, that bum note was buggin me too.. ; -)
Yep. All sounds are guitar. Filtered thru ebow and Line6 DL4 pedal. Thanks Kirk!
Wow, very Guaraldi, nice!
Nice use of delay!
Niiiice. I had to listen thru headphones, which I don't normally do.
I really like this. DL'd AND faved, which is rare for me to do. This has great atmosphere and some nice subtle psychedelia.
Nice. Sounds like the Earth breathing. Fuzz hit it right on the head.
I enjoyed these jams! Rock on Kirk!
Yeah the Variax even had a cool banjo and sitar model! But I took it back to GC because the harmonics sounded tinny, nothing like an acoustic. A minor quibble, really.
That's a cool audio experiment! Ending is a bit abrupt.
Thanks CE. A little delay and metal slide on the low strings. The "whale song" is reversed in the middle of the song.
Bon voyagee!
Some soulful playing there.
Beauty
Dang, that's hot! Great chops!
This is perfect. The vocal, the guitar. And the fret noise is integral. And the minimal lyrics say so much.
Love this simple, traditional sound!
Can't wait to hear the long version!
