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.

#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…
Ditty #10 for RPMC. I really had a hard time trying to come up with the final track, so I fell back on the old loop/delay/ebow improv formula, which I had hoped to avoid on this album. Kind of acoustic Breaking Light. Well it crossed the finish…

Ditty #9 for the RPMC album "Bones".
I'd had this rolling around in my head for about a year now, and even played it live with the SD&Q trio. Didn't quite turn out as planned, which is not unusual.

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.

I’d been experimenting with Euclidean rhythms for a while when the modular synth plugin Bazille was released by u-he.com. They seemed like the perfect match.

Came up with this chord progression on the bass one day and hit record for the hell of it. Came back to it and decided to throw a quick lil melody over it. I think this is going to close out the "Just a minute?" playlist so I can move on to music…
Well I seem to have a few songs with dreams and oceans in them. But then I do live on the ocean.... and I do dream ... daydream. I bought a cheap yamaha acoustic guitar from a garage sale for $50 and decided to try recording a song with it. I…
Now that my album Texas Tonefreak is almost "out of print", I'll be posting the tracks up here.

In 1971, after working for Pima County facility maintenance and some air conditioning supply houses, Jerry Baker saw there would be a lucrative market in mobile home heating, air conditioning and service. One year later, Baker's Mobile Aire incorporated…
From the second CD. This composition was inspired by memories of a stream close to where I was raised in San Diego. We lived in University City, a new suburb from 1964 to 1978. It wasn't built up back then so you could walk to many canyons…
Last month I did a bad instrumental thing inspired by the quiet little instrumental breaks in the last couple of Pink Floyd records. I don't like the way it came out, but I did decide right away I'd try something similar again before 50/90 ended…
