Mining the archives a bit. This is an alternate take of my "Jimi Jam" from a couple of years ago. Live to 2 tracks with the Jamman. Really only sounds OK when cranked up loud enough that your eardrums threaten to meet in the middle. LOL!!
Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…
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.
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

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.
I found a cassette tape the other day from 1991 which turned out to be live to 2 track demos that Scartaglen did in the studio in preparation for our 3rd and (as it turned out) final album. This tune didn't make the cut for the record but I always…

This is one of those tracks that if you drift off to sleep while listening to it, you're almost guaranteed to have pleasant dreams. The fidelity of the recording is fantastic.
An experiment I recorded yesterday with a rig I put together for more or less ambient sounds using two loopers and nearly every effects unit I own. I have no idea who Clark was but he owned the '58 Harmony Stratotone that I used on this cut. His…

Recently, my wife and I discovered the TV show Portlandia, and it has become our Saturday morning ritual to watch the latest episode with our coffee. Anyways, I kind of got the theme song (http://www.ifc.com/fix/2011/02/portlandia-whats-that…

About twenty billion years ago, when dinosaurs roamed the earth and Roland's D50 was new, I found this patch called "spanisheart" and plunked down a new-agey tune. Which I promptly forgot about for years. Every now and then, I catch myself playing…
The theme for Improv Friday this week is "variations". So here's an improv reconstruction of the one classical piece I know, Bach's Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring.
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
Oh bright morning star
Draw me to your light
How far do I have to travel
How many lonely nights
I don’t know where I’m heading
Just don’t lead me astray
In my search for tomorrow
Or for a better day
Oh bright morning star
Draw me to your light…
We’re standing up for the job creators
We know that someday they will come through
All that’s needed is lower taxes
That’s what they’re waiting for us to do
We think it’s great they have so much money
We know they’ll spend it responsibly…
Featuring Mark Hubbard & Duma, on didj & percussion respectively, this one begins as the most traditionally structured piece on the album. But don't get used to it, it doesn't last long... just enough to ease you into the formlessness…
Random mischief. Ableton died halfway, so couldn't mix drums and bass properly. Ofcourse, then I rage and delete every Ableton file on the laptop. Heh, TMI.

this song made me pick up my guitar . thanks for inspiring.
This is sooooooo good. Quick thanks to Kavin for bringing my attention back to this Kirk Lynch masterpiece.
This is very cool. I forgot I had listened to this. There's this warm familiarity. Your Palette is very broad.
Agree - it's a score tune - and not just spaghetti westerns (whatever the heck that is). Luv the backwards delay.
cool! I enjoyed this live performance very much.
Every time I hear that guitar first come in, it's so sweet. Kudos, friend.
I have no idea how this is done,its great
The panning on this song sent a chill down my spine - nice work here!
