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.
With his lottery money Reg has invested in becoming a funk star. The other reg came up with the tune and Reg jumped all over the thing......come and get funky with thetwoReg

Based on Norm Harris' Percussion Solo Moonbathing http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/moonbathing this piece uses bass pictured above after conversion to fretless and uses my fretless Fender Squire through the metallurgy 3 demo effect.
I have a story to tell. Debbie and I went to a Guitar Center across town looking for a cheap used bass for me to convert to fretless like I did my Squire Strat. Well.... I ran into a really nice used Ibanez 5 string bass - with a B below E…
This is a serial improvisational piece (excepting some drum loops) in John O’Sullivan’s Blue JI tuning (which I rather like) – all of the instruments, African log drum, Nigerian log drum, Krin slit drum, Teponaxtli, Toere, Kaekeeke, Kalaau…

This is lovely work! Intended to only listen to part and come back later, but got drawn in and listened to the whole thing. Must come back for part one!
Well, I finally got my hands on a 17 note per octave electric guitar thanks for Brad Smith, a local Luthier who did a lovely conversion of a Jay Turser strat copy I bought at the local Guitar Center for $65. The guitar is nicely very bright…
Funk is my first love but a close second is disco with house right on its heels.
This track is a mix of all three...a funky disco house track. No funky guitars but I've got my fingers crossed that the groove is funky enough.
Anyway lots of synths…

Great playing, the different instruments blend together wonderfully. Wish I could say I had played on NPR!

Kirk, this is super. Lowland pipes go staight to my soul.

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.
