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.
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
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

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…
This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
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.

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…

These Bordello tunes are nice and relaxing.
I was ready for that 2nd chord in my song too. I didn't realize how uncomfortable my hand would get holding the same chord for a few minutes.

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…

Just one of those passing moods. Just finished today - august 2 2009. I resisted the temptation to try to develop it any further and just let it be what it is

Written in Isaba, Spain 2003. On location shooting THE STONE RAFT/HET STENEN VLAT/La Balsa de Piedra. If you leave me a note, please tell me who you are.
This is an old one, from the early 90' when we had a band. There are two songs really, but conceived to be played togheter: "The Anguish of The Moment - Wise as The Time" may be a valid translation. Quite different from what i use to upload, i…
Found this one while clearing out the cobwebs prior to the 2011 RPM Challenge. It appears to be as finished as its going to get, sooo... here it is.
In short: a quirky love song for our cybernetic brothers and sisters who dance to a different beat.
This is me live....
No frills....
I Play a classical because my fingers are too big... Lol!!
Sorry if it is a bit rough...
was a tough night...

Peace

I'm sorry for this one. Not the whole song, not well done, nothing... but it fits my mood today. And i love it.
Edit, uploaded a new version with some storm recording in the background and re equalized. I think it's better now.
My first upload.
This is a cover of probably my favourite song of all time, by The Waterboys, who were introduced to me many years ago when the highlight of my week was Thursday night TV, pizza and quaffing Baileys.
Thanks to Sister S for…
I got me a new Cajon.
This is the first time recorded it (or played it for more than 30 seconds to be honest. My son keeps telling me to be quiet, then jumps on to it himself... ).
Thank you G man for Playing guitar on this. Luv ya bro…
~...and it happens this way: You remember what it once was, well... the feelings and all that~
P.S. Birds recorded in Anadyr that is on the edge of the earth, the white night.

Nice to hear vocals. Gaelic? My that's a mouthful. Just love these live performances and such superb music.
Hi, Kirk. Iam here for the pipes. I am a fan. Say hello to Aly Bain. Check out Lisa D, on alone tone
This just sparkles!!! William Eaton will be eating his art out!!
wow, the melodies in this are just incredible...
Def can see this for T.V. or film
Fantastic. Could listen to this all day.
Very tight! Great style and very authentic!
Nice sounds on this Kirk! Love the traditional Celtic sounds mixed with the modern ambiance. Keep me posted on your music! Thanks, Best Regards ,Rich
Hey Kirk, thanks for listening. As always, I appreciate your comments. I'd love to hear an acoustic & pipe RPM from you.... any plans??
Thanks for synth advice.
I need to buy a keyboard. Any suggestions for a decent fairly cheap keyboard. I would use it mainly for ambience and filling out the sound.
These Bordello tunes are nice and relaxing. I was ready for that 2nd chord in my song too. I didn't realize how uncomfortable my hand would get holding the same chord for a few minutes.
I'm ready for a bit of blended Irish whiskey added directly to my coffee. Let's party!
Very cool Kirk!
That is some very smooth playing Kirk.
Supergreat. That's one tight band.
A marvelous piece, Kirk...
Ah.... what a lovely music, Kirk!!!! It's really beautiful. Amazing stuff, as always! Add my claps!!!!

What thetworegs said. Lovely indeed!
Beautiful! Really makes me want a nylon string guitar
Great guitar sounds!
Nice! Like the effects on the guitars
Great fun track! I don't suppose that the doctor would be satisfied if just one of the regs quit?
Dig the combo of the electronic percussion and the acoustic 12 string. Nice!
Overheated circuits in action! Very cool piece!
Damn! Nice to hear this one again. Most excellent!
Nothing like a good live performance. Great job T!
Still beautiful! Was nice to see you around the place again. Any new stuff in the works?
Very cool Rick! I've often thought of doing percussion tracks like this, but have never gotten around to it as yet
This is lovely! I know those moods well
Lovely! Great sounding recording
Great stuff T!
Gorgeous!
Nice one man!
Very cool. Whatever new techniques you're using they're working for you! Great bass and drum sounds
Really fine work man!
Wonderful vocals!
Don't forget about your old buddy Kirk OK?
