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.
Now this is nice.....real nice.......nice it too "nice" a word for this wonderful sound you have conjured here.....mega-nice. Most looper jams leave me cold, but this is real good, just the way I like it.
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…
I just realized I misread who was playing. I thought this was Kavin but realized this is an assortment of artists. Kirk apologies and as I said but indicated Kavin, but now for you, Gorgeous and Bachlike.
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.

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.
Another cut from the 1988 cassette tape of a live performance by Scartaglen on the NPR show Mountain stage. This time some tunes from County Kerry.
Kirk Lynch- Uilleann pipes and whistle. Becky Pringle- Fiddle. Mike Dugger- Fiddle and guitar…

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
I love your skill sets we enjoy the same feel. I noticed that you are listening to some of my Christmas stuff thank you I wish we could colab. it would be great.

Welp... I didn't do a feckin' thing all weekend. No laundry, no nuthin'. So I figured I'd beat the living hell out of my Ibanez in order to make up for it.
A juvenile song at best, but I feel better now :)
One take in the MBR hole... I'll…
Nothing to do with Wiccans. I can't remember why I called it 'Pentangle' - probably the first word that entered my head when it came time to save. I like to go with whatever bubbles up from the subconscious.
Part one of a mini-musical within the album, that never quite felt finished...but we love the first chapter!
*update* this is now an official track on the album...poss. our feat. track!
I came up with the initial rhythmic riff on my bass, then looped it to create the basis for this track. Then, I layered another "lead" bass track on top of that, added some percussion, and finally topped it off with an electric piano-ish sound…
Well, this is number 10, and with only 8 days left, I think we may be calling it on this one. There are alot of scraps left over, and even a few experiments left to showcase, including a three part duet! but alas, time is escaping into the void…
This is an "unplugged" version of a song that features a nylon stringed acoustic guitar. All instruments played by Barry Morgan and mixed and mastered in his home studio.
Kind of a chillout, lullaby type tune.

Notes:
I think the shaker comes in too strong. I think the intro goes on for probably 1 or 2 more phrases than it should.

Great playing here and a wonderful overall sound. What are you using to create your drums , bass etc...liked this very much

Oh yeah, thats an improv all right. I feel all weird from listening, like time is going backwards or something. Spooky sounding almost.
Lovely. Thanks so much.
Magic!

Kavin gorgeous and Bachlike.
Very nice, Kirk. I really enjoyed this one! Thanks for the nice comments on my doings. Much appreciated.
Thanks for listening ...and for ye good sounds. 'hope all is well, Kirk!
I really like the opening vocal work. And the playing that follows is brilliant, must have been fun to hear live.
Those two are impossible not to like!
Loved it. I like overall spontaneous and improvised, live feeling of your music.

This is fantastic. Fun stuff. Thanks
Excellent!!!

Excellent ambiance man. Everything blends perfectly.
Need to add that cheese to a cheese sammich. Cool stuff Kirk. Some interesting sounds you are pulling out of that instrument. Me like.
Works for me too, beautiful depth of sound.
Love this new sonic direction you've taken. Keep on!
