Oh I love these trad, timeless sounds! What phenomenal musicianship! Crazy energy - fantastic spirit! The atmosphere really comes across in this recording - and the applause at the end? That's me!!
Fabulous sounds, Sir FS!
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…

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

Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone

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…
I'll thank and type Paul MacDonald one more time. Maybe he'll google his name and have a bit better chance of landing here for his R&C's. I like this a lot, Kirk.

Hey, I even clapped at the end. Just couldn't help myself. Wonderful suite. The minor keyed opening had me smiling with a tear in my eye. Hugely enjoyed this. Glad you scrounged it up. Sounds good and feels good.
You know I'm diggin' and scratchin' when I start
sounding like Jimmy Buffet elevator musak :)
Oooooo the delightful chaos of RPM
This has 2 percussion loops, midi drums, midi fretless bass, some midi strings, synths, and piano, 2 gallons of…
my rpm #5,, it will eventually become a part om my themed cd "the dark doll house" a somewhat sad place where memories of childhoods past echo through empty rooms,, the two other pieces thus far in this theme are the 3 mov of my piano sonata…
The story of Elisha and Elijah. We sang this in church this morning. We got my daughter to play a clarinet solo for it. She's only been playing for 5 months, so we're really proud of her and excited to have one more way to "color" our music.
Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !
The wind roars. The night is pitch-black. The rails wet. Ideal.
I thought it would be harder. Perhaps it is only as hard as one deems it to be.
It approaches. I am terrified, but it needs to be done.
I let out everything that is human, as a…
One of the first songs I ever wrote... When we bought our first house, we had a nice big back yard on a 1/3 acre lot... With the train tracks just on the other side of the back fence.

Great playing, the different instruments blend together wonderfully. Wish I could say I had played on NPR!
Boy ... This is GOOD!
Kirk, this is super. Lowland pipes go staight to my soul.
...wow...love it
Love it ... shared it on Facebook as I'm sure some of my friends would like it too ...
What Sister said and double it! :) Mighty fine fiddling, pipes and whistle!
These live performances are just outstanding. Please, please, please keep digging them up and sharing them with us!

beautiful playing and overall sound, incredible arrangement!
such rich sounds. a pleasure to hear this.
Really liked that, I've had you on for the last hour or so, very pleasant
Some nice spacey fx on this, reverb and echo delicately used.
Wow, great, I've heard stuff like this before but it's usually by Irish folk, and it's really cool, love it.
very well done kirk
Man this hits home. I love this. So awesome! Thanks for posting this!

What a great way to start catching up on my listening backlog! Really enjoyed listening to this.

Spacey and spacious. You worked that delay to near exhaustion. Good for you. Much Enjoyed.

This is nice man! I dig the pretty colors too
Fascinating dark sounds!
Gorgeous vocals!
Guess I need to learn to type. That was supposed to be Nice
Pass that Ripple this way OK? Real nice for early morning listening
Mice! That opening gets me every time
Beautiful! It's like those places in the mind that you don't necessarily want to be in, but have to visit once in a while
Lovely vocal harmonies! Nice track
Very cool!
Beautiful! Great guitar sounds and vocals
Insane! Don't know how I missed this
Nice! Great sounding mix
Fascinating sounds!
Beautiful!
Hauntingly beautiful! Your music should be in film
I love this! That 12 string sounds like it's about 40 ft long
I don't know how you do it, but you manage to sound like a BAND and not a guy doing a bunch of overdubs. Faved!
That rocks hard! Dig the guitar work!
Great album altogether Keith!
Nice! You got that affect of 2 instruments on this one as well.
