My father brought a koto back from Japan after WWII, I thought this might be a good time…
An improv in a found tuning. E and A strings tuned WAY down so they're slapping the neck:

Super full moon tonight! (View More for video)

Hey Kavin, Thanks for your nice comments, Yes, It's true, I play all the guitar parts, Bass and keys and chop up real drums for my drum stuff.
And I miss Frank, And Don too!
I wish I could play in your style as well as you do, I'm a hopeless solo guitarist.

I also miss Frank....
This is a fresh new approach to Uncle Remus!
Highly enjoyable, and the lead guitar parts sounded quite Zappa-ish to my ears....

This track was my attempted submission for Ramen Music #001. I finally got around to uploading it here.
It was made using several instances of the Max for Live instrument "Loop Shifter" that I played in real-time using my Novation Launchpad…
from the album "the Hardest Blow" featuring vocals from Jana Persson (strumming dude) and lead guitars from Paul Lennon (Wildgeas)
Red and white, black and blue
Close me off, soak me through
Trade it all, fall down low
Sooth my wound, never…
from "the Hardest Blow" featuring vocals from Tess Savigear and solo guitar from Kavin Allenson
It’s name is sadly the same as me, without me
It cannot follow through doorways, the same way
Just saw the rainbow fall over
It’s game remembers…

Long drum solos aren't for everyone - I get it. Just do what many at Grateful Dead concerts did and look at it as an opportunity to go get another beer. On the other hand, if you are the sort of person who cheers at the fireworks show, I hope…
My girlfriend was born in the Middle East, that's why I've come to listen a lot to Arab, Persian, Turkish, and Tuareg music. I improvised this song within a few early morning hours after coming home from a concert by the incredible Tuareg rock…
I was reading this profile on MySpace and was impressed with this girl...really impressed. It's all there in her BIO. Masters degree and five languages. The part about using gender "stereotypes ironically" etc is an exact quote.
SKIN TONE…

Very nice! I think the tempo is just right, and the song is very catchy. Thanks for sharing! Regards, Steffen
Thanks!
very interesting melodically. A beautiful dedication aswell
YESSS Zappa!!! great job :)
This is the kind of tune I can get wrapped up and lost in for a VERY long time.
Kavin, You are prolific! so many tracks. Nice cover.
Don't know how I missed this one. What a great song!
There's a nice "John Martyn " vibe here. Nice.

As always....fantastic playing!
Very nice guitar bit layout.
Love your voice - very cool cover!
Yeah Baby!!! Freaking SWweetness!

Dynamic, slightly atonal. Nice!
excellent cover!
@jarvis: Squier Tele run thru son Eric's POD XT.
might be a leeetle to experimental for what they want for Ramen, but I liked it! Bethan singing? Really?
O lovely, really good improv!
If that's MiDI,has a great live sound, hard to accomplish. Brilliant playing too. Very impressive,doesn't need vocals, IMO.
Wild mechanistic nightmare with a Magma choir!
this Hardest Blow project is really awesome! Cant wait to hear it all in it's entahrety.
@AFC- it reminds me of early Scorpions, hence the heavy metal observation..heavy metal lite? Ah well, screw genres...
Love how this turned out! I don't get to do heavy metal often, that was fun!
It's hard to get this expressiveness from an ebow, well done!
always dig long drum solos if interesting, and this sure is. DL'd to mess around with later.
Lovely slide playing there.
Drop-D tuning, Cap. And yes BJ the chording is direct influence from NY's unplugged Mr. Soul, you have a keen ear sir.
good boogie.
Really good. like how you worked around the repeating guitar figure. Kind of a Turkish, mid-eastern sound.
Heheh. Classic JMT.
Hey Norm, no prob, there's no copyright on song titles! Stinkbug was my daughter's nickname when she was small. thanks!
Que genial!
owell, nice try. Some tasty stuff here, tho.
