I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
12-string requires a greater sense of space, because it is, in fact, work with the orchestra sound (instead of more "focused" 6-string = black&white). And you got it. Now is the time to draw a picture, in color :-)
P.S. My favorite 12-string master - Ralph Towner, ECM, I listen to him often.

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…

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.
Comments on kavin.'s stuff
Ohhh! That was great! Well played!
Wow! National Resonator. How old is that guitar? It sounds sensational.
Conjures up images of cowboys. I approve! :)

Love the "crying" lead in the background.
This was a good pick-me-up for the afternoon. Very much enjoyed!
Got the mule loaded I'm on my way.......
Great playing mate very cool dig it.
You were made for 12 strings. I would like to hear a mandolin track layered over this. First Class!!
Wow.
Wonderful stuff man!
great 12 string sound and tune. Always amazes me that something as small as the R08 can record such great stereo sounds
Beautiful Kavin!
very nice,, i like the open "breezy/airy" sound/feel of this
Outstanding!
My friend, you have a knowledge of your instrument that I could never hope to have. Magnificent piece of music.
Faved instantly.
Sweet! That is a very nice tuning indeed. I've never thought about messing with a capo like that, but now I will have to try!!!!!
Excellent!

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.

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!
You got daughter Brit singing this! (cough!)
I love this whole album. Hope you and yer bass are feeling better Rick!
