Flows nicely. Moves well into changes. You've got the process down, that's for sure.
I didn't hear Sister Savage. Must be another song you are referring to?
A reverse take (recorded live at a gig) of a couple of Pink Floyd covers. The amazing Bill Pohl on 2nd guitar. It came out sounding strangely symphonic.

Some more Texas boogie from my buddy Nitro. I added the gtr break.

This should be the final tune from Nitro's "Wanna Dance" album project. Ruthie's "theme song". I added the slide guitar at the end.

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.
A test run with my new Line 6 DL4 delay pedal. Recorded with a handheld mp3 recorder, hence the ambient room noise. The DL4 was fed into a BOSS loop pedal also. No overdubs, all on the fly.

“While I Wait”: (Richard Hardrick)
I hear my steps from echoes
down in the street of time
van años en lo incierto
outside the shadow line
Silence in an empty sky
while I wait
God has not revealed yet
the truth of signs outside…
#4 for the RPM Challenge.
Have you heard this melody before? This is one of those where I wonder if I've unconsciously "borrowed" something from someone. Translation: the Fly Boat, like the tourist boats that ply the river Seine and their bright…
1pm on Sunday. I'm not back in work until Tuesday. We've just had a delicious roast dinner that I cooked, and the glass of wine we had with it is helping it go down. As a crisp February sun twinkles through the window I realise that for the first…
I was asked to come up with some gritty microtonal guitar. This is an out-take from that session.
17 Indulgences is a solo guitar piece in 17 edo featuring acoustic feedback, echo and a bluesy sort of point of view but does wander here and…
Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…
Sometimes society gets wrapped up in their own routine, failing to notice the sheer beauty that surrounds them on a daily basis, until a moment of chance changes everything.
Some reflections after recording this song:
1. Mic positioning for a live take can drive you crazy
2. The lowest note I can comfortably sing is an A
3. A tortured soul can somehow write an amazing love song
4. I still have much to learn

Depeche Mode lite
I was going to hire Meatloaf for the ending but it turns out he will NOT work for pancakes... which is what I had heard.
This is one of the prime examples of (early on) being WAY more ambitious than what my ability…
You're right it is really good. That drum track is a little overwhelming in the mix at first tho. I like the guitars, stream of conciousness lyrics, Lennon-like vocal and the Miles Davis title check.
OCCUPY 0112
It's a highland I call my land
It's an island in the sun
No matter how you measure it
It's always number one
If I had a house to occupy
I'd occupy my wish
But to have a house to occupy
I must defy the rich
We buy the…
This song was inspired by a long walk....
Lyrics:
Down by the river, down by the shore we go
The moon above cast a beautiful glow
We walked around talking through the night
I can’t help but think how it felt right
Hey Constance, don’t you feel…
Cool. I might be tempted to try this. Maybe a stupid question here but couldn't you accomplish the same thing just tuning all the strings a semitone flat (or sharp)?
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
ok, my bad, I forgot she plays as well as sings. :)
@ NA, yep it's a SS track, but no vocal. I added gtr. Thanks man.

Smooth playing. Great technique.
Hah! Knip Dyolf! I love it!
Mackwards Basking!!LOL!!!COOL!!

Hi... I really want to listen this track to the other side.. maybe the machine can breathe a differen history :)
some very cool guitar tones
Kavin, I think this piece is absolutely fantastic. Well, well played!
Wonderful- I missed this one somehow
Fantastic! Don't know how I missed this one
I love this, it reminds me of, "Tales of the River Bank", only better.
Great playing! I missed this one of yours
Wonderful playing and such a lovely piece.
very cool- inspirational
This is wonderful! Very cool concept...clever title! w;-)

Nice proggy/metal vibe going on here Rick.
Thanks MTC! I'm relieved!
Welcome to Alonetone Daniel! Pick on!
Wonderful! Glad you are back!
Sweet acoustic tone!
Yesh! Definitely a candidate for the IF RPM mash album.
Liking the drone and general guitar mayhem.
Supergreat. That's one tight band.
This makes me feel sad. That's a good thing.
Nice ambient and great album. I came to IA through his novels, not so much his short stories. One of the SF masters indeed!
You're on a roll with these JT covers. Wond'ring Aloud next maybe?
Great versh. I'd like more details on the mic placement. Are you just using one mic? More is better when recording acoustic.

Picturing JMT in a kilt.
Very nice indeed!
Like the crystal acoustic tone and space there.
Your experiments with pitch/tuning always fascinate.
Great song and delivery. I could imagine Van the Man doing this one.
Unplanned jam, the best kind!
