Hello Little One
Hello little one
Glad I ran into you
Are you some kinda freak
Or did you escape from a zoo?
Ears like a fox, look like a dog
About as much hair as you'd…

But she’s not equal in this world
I am lord of all I see

A little birthday uke ditty, bookended by two improvs
So this is year 61
Made it this far
Let’s have some fun
Keep looking forward don’t look back
Time has a way of keeping track
Of joy and pain
We all live for love
Sun or rain

First in a planned series of American traditional folk tunes presented as simple guitar instrumentals.
Here's the lyrics if you want to sing along:
Oh, where have you been, Billy Boy, Billy Boy?
Oh, where have you been, Charming Billy?

This is a 19 note per octave solo electric guitar improvisation played in classical guitar format recorded in Sonar X1 with Guitar rig and Lexicon reverberation. Makes it hard to classify for what audience would want to listen to it I guess. The…
A friend told me a story of a rich man who bought all the products from a failing hardware store and kept it in his tool shed in the backyard. When my friend was instructed to grab a tool from the tool shed he was taken back by the amount of unopened…
This is just a bit of silly fun I had one day with a four-track cassette recorder...about 9 years ago (yup...another lost find fro the racks). Just blowin' off some steam on a day off in my little apartment of Tokyo. On first listen-back...it…
Just a rough version of a song I plan to record properly during this coming February's RPM Challenge.

Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…
An experiment I recorded yesterday with a rig I put together for more or less ambient sounds using two loopers and nearly every effects unit I own. I have no idea who Clark was but he owned the '58 Harmony Stratotone that I used on this cut. His…
My 5-year-old daughter has asked me to make music for her to have playing in her room as she falls asleep. So, I'm working on a new album of ambient and downtempo electronica called "Sleep." Here's a work-in-progress mix of the first track.
A drone + some angry drunken guitar playing.
Trying to capture a feeling...
You have just had a fight/argument with a lover but you're drunk and your feelings are lost in a swimming haze.

Outstanding.
Oh, this is masterfully played. Just lovely.
Okay, this is just beyond lovely.
Dude, this is great! Looooooove the energy!
"We went away to find ourselves and came back to someone else." Great line. This track is not what I expect from you.
Like it... even made me pick up my acoustic :)
Sounds great man. Very peaceful.
Very nice!
Strong attack
Serenaded me lovely, there.
Nice!
Just gave this a listen while working on the site! Nice playing!
cool sounds, kavin, the various textures seem to melt together in a beautiful cascade.
really nice you two!
well done!
This is excellent,,, woe it is,,
Comments made by kavin.
Great ecstatic energy!
Pretty minimal. Like Bitches Brew without horns. What a difference from the Doc's show!
I love that tone.
Very very nice.
Wonderful stuff, Dennis. Thanks for posting these tracks here!
Thanks Kirk. One channel is dry miked guitar with SM57, one channel thru the DL4, auto volume swell setting.
I forgot to mention I really like this, repetition and all!
Funky cool. King Crimsonish, in a way.
Right on! Well put.
Cool. Only 1 listen?
So what happened to Johnny? This is the only thing that remains. Did I miss something?
Another hit. These blow me away.
Aahh. Hints of Alison Krause. This top stuff yawl.
Love the acoustic interplay on this!
Dig the minimalism here!
Yeah Kirk, definitely check out DM. One of the best modern westerns I think, and I usually don't like westerns. NY's soundtrack is perfect for it too.
Lucky lucky. Great sweeping tone on this. Got a pick of the entire guitar?
Like the Hendrixian guitar that comes in at 4 min...is that Ken playing?
Woaw yeah, great low end! The ominous intro might induce nightmares tho..
Your mood really comes thru in the music. Hope it all works out.
