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.
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.

from Vaisvil - re; nylon 6 string - I've had really good luck with my local guitar center with used equipment. Re: 19 edo - many people consider 19 notes per octave to be the next logical step since you can still play 12 equal music (with sweeter chords) and also play stuff you can't play in 12 equal. However, if any alternate tuning has been embraced by academia it has been 24 notes per octave (quartertones) which is a much harder beast to tame though really good composers have pulled it off.

A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009
Do you know who Gregor Hilden is? These jams reminded me of him, except his work is more blues oriented. I'll include a link to his channel in a private message. great stuff!

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…
Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…

Great! You know, I first heard Clannad listening to the U2 Red Rocks concert on Showtime (My folks didn't actually subscribe to Showtime, so the picture was scrambled - but the audio was clear!). They had such lovely atmospherics, they grabbed my attention right away, even though I didn't understand a word. To my delight, in going through the back catalog, I was exposed to their acoustic, traditional music - the kind of music you played. It's a joy to hear your performances! Aloha!

Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…

Turn my back for 11 lousy days!!!!
Class. That lady is phenomenal - are you one of the male voices, Kirk? Wonderful folk music to soothe this tired soul! Very much enjoying these uploads. Keep them coming, oh master.

Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.
Years ago, in Winter, a friend of mine sent me pictures from Moscow, where she lives. And that inspired me to write this "soundtrack".
The vocal theme is "sung" by Vocaloid, a software singer. Unfortunately I don't have a singer of that calibre…
My RPM challenge this year: acoustic guitar instrumental album with no more than three tracks on each tune (ok, maybe four!)
This one is a single track with no overdubs. On the 12 string, the 4th,5th and 6th string pairs are tuned a fourth apart.

I’ll be by your side.
But a shield.
Still a fool.
Like an Eye in the past.
I remain.
Shut in Hope.
Whenever you fall,
Take my hand should you need.
But you will not see it.
The Battle has made your…
Puddleglum and the Queen of the Underworld
Imagine that there is no sun but only candlelight
Imagine that there are no stars to see when it is dark
Show me what you mean by that
I think your lion is just a cat
A great big cat
Imagine that
Mesmerized…

This is very impressive. I'm going to have to write something like this.
I love this track so much. Such a nice track, one of my favs of all time!

Wow! Just Wow!
Lovely! This was great for first thing in the morning
That rocks! Nice!
Gorgeous sounds man! Love the sound of that tuning. You get some wonderful chord voicings that way
Nice! Who needs words anyway?
That second chord was such a relief!
Very cool. These help me to think outside my own self imposed musical box
And a lovely moment it is!
Gorgeous song man!
Another one for my favorites list! Pure beauty!
I'm gonna have to throw some water on your hands to put out that fire!
Beautiful!
Faved instantly! Gorgeous!
Love all the contrasting guitar tones! Cool!
That's a bit different for you and very nice as well!
Very cool! Now I'll have to read all those C.S. Lewis books again
Great vocals and really nice guitar work! Love the ebow break in the middle
I'd come see the band!
Nice! Interesting guitar sounds you got on this one with that huge sounding reverb
