Dali is my favorite. Fabulous lyrics! Digging the combination of strumming mixed with slip'n'slide. This recording is a real fun for the ear and the imagination. Far out AND groovy!
RPMX track 4
Skin of silk, tungsten steel
Machine of lust, seems unreal
Simple chores are what you’re for
I remade you for so much more
My love is gone forever now
But you will do, 'cos I know how
To modify you’re software now
Will…
Fascinating, interesting, intriguing lyrics, indeed, without a doubt. Very pleasant music. well sung -- good delivery. Well mixed for maximum pleasure.
Track 9 for RPMX album Cold Ground Was My Bed
Those boots that you're wearing black and high
Reach almost up to your thigh
High heels and leather
Tight as a drum
They would even look good on your mum
Black Boots
Wear them with fishnets…

what a funky, cool, groovy grove! A lyrically cool subject matter too. If Lou Reed was still with us, he would have wished he wrote this. And as Paul Lennon (Wildgeas), that's some smooth organ!

Recorded August 28, 2009
Details: Martin D1 (DADFGC - capo II), Shure SM57, Audacity, Sound Forge.
After digging this tune up really I really wanted to try it again on acoustic (which I don't play much). This is a second take recorded in…
Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…
Recorded August 26, 2009
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADFGC - capo II), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, EBow, Audacity, Sound Forge.
Written in 1982 after a trip to Wyoming with a couple of Alex DeGrassi cassettes....
Another experiment. The name comes from the fact that I was in the woods; not because I was really concerned about making woodsy sounds...
Thanks again to glu and Chris McGrath for opening my eyes to some different Live tricks...
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.
@ Sister: Due to technical issues I would have to post the entire song file, which would be posting cover tunes, which I don't want to do here...trust me, the reversed, edited versions sound better!
Brief musical sketch, to be transformed into a teary-eyed country weeper.
Instrumentation:
1 Dobro Resonator Guitar, played on both sides of a slide.
[If you give a page a dobro ...]
This track started off with an idea. The idea was an instrument setup such that I could play a single note, or octave and have arps and stuff built it up...
I failed in that experiment by getting carried down the add more effects road and before…
Ambient guitar with generous reverb served up on a bed of glitched up vocal samples.
Boring technical details:
Puremagnetik voxbox micropak came with a bunch of vocal clips. I put them all into live and gave them all follow actions to play…
Two jigs I wrote after returning from Ireland. Sorry for the horrid splice between the two tunes...I'll fix that when I get a chance. Penny whistle, mandolin, acoustic guitar.

Excellent guitars really cool track mate
Genius guitars K. I like Dali's Elephants. 30ft tall with pencil skinny legs :) - been there.
Totally cool! Amazing lyrics!
Mighty fine track, Kav! w;-)

Love it man, love it! Great playing......
Cool sounds and effects. I'm digging this style and approach. Great job!
Fascinating, interesting, intriguing lyrics, indeed, without a doubt. Very pleasant music. well sung -- good delivery. Well mixed for maximum pleasure.
Great track mate dig it
Like the jazz blues mix, good one.
Delicious work out on the guitar. To get political with a song takes courage -- few are willing to go there, but I do it myself often enough. Rock on!
I absolutely love this track! w;-)
Agree with the sentiments... and cool guitar tones :)
Synths are great too
Its got a nick cave to it.. Vocals are excellent. Just the touch
Oh man kavin that's beautiful. Absolutely nailed it
Really nice slip'n'slide work. Great vocal delivery in this one. Sweet arrangement of sounds. GROOVE ON!
what a funky, cool, groovy grove! A lyrically cool subject matter too. If Lou Reed was still with us, he would have wished he wrote this. And as Paul Lennon (Wildgeas), that's some smooth organ!
I'm so liking this! w;-)
Extra Cool!!

A good one hear. A 24 hrs well spent sir.
Discovered this on the RPM jukebox and enjoyed it very much.
Love hearing the two versions back to back, but I favor the acoustic side I think.
So good. Saw Tommy Emmanuel the other night, and he played some great mellow fingerpicking like this, great to hear it!
Guitar wonderment. Proof positive one doesn't have to be fast or flashy to be a guitar wizard. Like the extended length also.
Very good. I get a jungle feel more than forest, because it has a vaguely tribal beat. Check out my tune with the same title.
@ Sister: Due to technical issues I would have to post the entire song file, which would be posting cover tunes, which I don't want to do here...trust me, the reversed, edited versions sound better!
I'm cryin' already. Inventive little tone poem!
Amen ta that! I hear some Ray Davies in there. Cool!
Short and sweet!
=!&0000))))
Bravo Eno!
Yes! More ebow!
Sonic Mood is a cool program and I like what you did with it!
Love it! Bluegrass with a British accent! Oh that's right, Americans are the ones with the accent.
I DO like it, but then I go for these kinds of guitar oddities. "Talent enhancer"? I want one of those.
Killer! A nice acoustic ride!
Hey Rick! Where you been? These tracks sound great! Drop me a line when you can!
Like the loose feel of this one!
Makes me thirsty for a blackntan!
