Quick recording of a new set of pipes I'm working on. Long winded explanation- prior to the late 19nth century most Irish pipes featured very small bores and finger holes and were pitched well below modern concert pitch. I've always loved them…

More ambient experimentation with my fretless guitar and Roland GR20. This time I used some sounds from the magnetic pickups as well as the midi pickup. Kind of a cheesy synth patch I know, but it was working for me!

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…
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
great sound. Very lively and engaging. I may well have heard this 'live' on the radio as this one a show I listened to frequently back during this time.

Didn't sound cheesy to me. Besides, I was very drawn to old-skool patches when I could do it on my kurzweil. This is a beautiful and relaxing piece and didn't 'feel' like five and a half minutes. Much enjoyed.
Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.

A bit of improv done yesterday with my newly refurbished fretless guitar. Finally got the midi pickup to track almost right! Part of the sounds were gotten by rubbing a teaspoon on the strings.

What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman

Wrote and recorded my first Xmas tune ...was supposed to be entered into a song contest but that site closed...all instruments except drums are played by me.
This started off as the first unplugged recording I ever made.
Bruce (Blooby)kindly added some drums and pipes to it....
Then Oldrottenhead sang a lyric over it a bit later...
The way this evolved amazed be. Never thought it would…
... just a polite request... :)
Check out the video!
Lyrics:
we won't be until you end this bull s--t
Close the f--king door
Why debate,
he does not measure up to me any day/way/place
Why debate, I'd measure my c--- to this degenerate…
i was listening to a post of this Beatles cover by oldrottenhead this morning,,it is a really great song, so this evening i sort of just sort of sat down an let it happen,,i didn't even really know the song as much as i might like,, but i find…
I was working on a piano phrase played by Alonetone supremo [Sudara](http://alonetone.com/sudara) (about which, more later).
One of the approaches I took was to load the phrase into the Time Freezer instrument and play it. I kind of got lost…
Just a rough version of a song I plan to record properly during this coming February's RPM Challenge.
EDUCATION REALITY CHECK
I work with children every morning
Check their progress every night
I'm an expert with technology
And interactive…
This is just a really simple string/piano piece that resulted from two years of half-hearted tinkering. As of now the cello is too loud and the snare sounds too sample-y, but I'd appreciate any other criticism.
Hey everyone. It's been awhile since I've posted new sketches so here's a recent little ditty. Simple banjo and acoustic to test out a new mic. More soon.
This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
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…

That's my kinda Christmas tune!
HA! Brilliant! Sounds like my neighbor
Really sweet sax!
Wonderful stuff man! This has a classic almost "john Barleycorn" feel about it
Make Me!!!
Very nice guitar sounds and vocals!
Wow! This is something. I've not a clue how you got some of these sounds around 7 minutes in
What a great interpretation of a classic!
I could get lost in it too. Nice!
Excellent!
That's really sweet! Love the addition of the kinda random vocal stuff and the percussion elements
HA! Made me smile. I guess you get to teach them before they get to the "old people are dumber than a box of rocks" stage.
Lovely composition!
Beautiful track!
Lovely song writing. Really nice arrangement!
Great sounds!
Very cool groovin' man
