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.

Written, recorded, and mixed in 24 hours. August 01-02, 2009, from 6am to 6am.
Instrumentation: Two acoustic guitars, electric guitar (picked and bowed), fretless bass, about 7 different flutes, two tabla drums, rattles, tambourine, didgeridoo…
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…
Growing up is hard.

I once had a Facebook Friend named Shannon Elizabeth Hardwick. A poet, from Midland, Texas, doing advanced studies at Sarah Lawrence. She was so good she could write a hundred pages about how she couldn…
This tune was written on the day I bought my vintage Yamaha CP-25 electric piano and returned to hear that Dennis Hopper had passed away. I fired up the gear and cranked this out. The sound of the piano made me feel like Ray Manzarek...thus the…
Spun around like a seer's needle
A philosopher so lost in his riddle
Tries to speak but no longer able
Drifting in the deepest dream

This one took me a while [years!] to complete - how did it come out?
Freesound samples used…
In one part I harmonized the E Phrygian intro with G Mixolydian, thought that was kinda neat. In the original tune I like the lyrics: "I am not a sailor, I am a captain, I am a captain." Electric guitar kicks in around the half way point.
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.
A new son reveals…

Memories long in music sleeping,
No more sleeping,
No more dumb:
Delicate phantoms softly creeping
Softly back from the old-world come.
Faintest odours around them straying,
Suddenly straying
In chambers dim;
Whispering silks in order…

Great playing here and a wonderful overall sound. What are you using to create your drums , bass etc...liked this very much
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.
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.
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.
This is fantastic. Fun stuff. Thanks
Excellent!!!
sounds nice! praise cheeses.
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!

Damn- I had forgotten how brilliant this was! I hope you're still out there making music man!
Lovely stuff! Missed this one
Well damn. Just when I was going to check out the other half of the album I can't get it to play
Great songwriting!
Sweet! Like the contrast in the middle section
I love it when I find something in favorites I haven't heard in ages and it's even better than I remember. Super track!
Been too long since I've heard this old favorite. Nice!
Nice! Missed this one of yours
A certain Mr. Gibbons just got his ass kicked!
Like being pursued by out of control machines bent on destruction! UH- Can we trade hands? Mine don't work like this
Wow! Thanks to Tess for pointing this one out. Great piece of work! Mix sounds really good in cans
Neat! Fun jam!
Quite beautiful!
Interesting stuff! I have enough trouble with 12 notes. What do you call all the extra ones!
Gorgeous!
Super nice groove man!
Excellent!
How Beautiful!
HA! Great version!
Just checked out the vid. Very cool!
