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…
From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…

This is excellent ... wow. What a great arrangement and fantastic, powerful playing. I love the entrance of different instruments along the way and the use of low, sustained drone notes. Most of all, though, I like the "soul" and liveliness of the piece. I would have loved to hear your group live!

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

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 my first recording and not great quality. I have ordered a better quality microphone, just waiting for it to arrive. Quality aside, I was hoping for some constructive critcism/comments on my version of this song.
that is not a sample you hear in the background, it is the dryer going. leave it in? okay, sure i'll leave it in. it's these artistic decisions we're all forced to make.
this song speaks of the putting aside of guilt and walking hand in hand with my inner self into each and every day...rejoicing.
I've worn the robe of the guilty
i've let this tyranny take me
to the bottom of the ocean
no more will i suffocate…
This is the book number four: Numbers. This is a book of war... a cry of war. Yes! this one has a lot of Gustav Holst influence and the first chord is very like Mozart's Don Giovanni... tell me what you think about it please. thanks.
I love how you managed to make it sound like it was almost going to resolve into something that that would sound like Gershwin and then it goes a completely different direction- great stuff!
i saw the curtains changing color
i watched the sun room come alive
i have been sitting in this rocker
wondering when you might arrive
i am hoping for redemption
cant stand the way i feel
i know it is only passing through me
rivers flood…
OK it's the morning after the party at the China Quay, and our hero is waking up. What has happened?
Influenced by about 6 different doowop tunes (great for hangovers!)
HA HA- I hear this and all I can think of is Flo and Eddie doing background vocals like on Zappa's "Ruben and the Jets" (yeah I go back that far) Great stuff!
Fiddling around with an open G tuning and I found the chord that 'Prodigal Son' is based on (a Robert Wilkins tune from the 30s made famous by the Stones) so I had a play around with it, stopped for dinner and came back and wrote the lyrics…

Damn that gets my blood moving. real good.
Listened to the whole album and enjoyed your playing. Will be back for more. Happy New Year. ER
Still nice, one of my favorites. Is that a tune Seamus Ennis played? My Irish record collection has gotten quite dusty...
This so rocks! Must be from a few years before I met you.
