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
Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.

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…

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 unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track

I can't hide the fact that I've listened to Pierre Bensusan. Or that I've longed to return to Paris.
I hereby name this the "bridge to nowhere" mix since it was the musical content of the bridge that I spent the most time on.
If you've heard the song before, I've provided a shortcut video that plays the bridge from last night's version vs. tonight…
The song was constructed around a field recording of Lacandon men paddling across the lake in Métzabok, Chiapas (Southern Mexico). The Lacandon speak "Hach T'an," which is a Mayan dialect-- this is the language you hear in the track. Unfortunately…
It's the "do no harm" mix.
Because, theoretically you won't hear any difference between this and "technique 43".
Which is sad really, given how many hours I spent on it. Hours spent on the oh-so-exciting put-everything-in-Logic step…

Late night improvisation in remembrance of my father.
That twanging sound at the beginning of the song is me putting my acoustic through an amp with all knobs on 10. Acoustics feedback at 440mhz, which is an A note. The song is in A. It kind of sounds like a high tension electrical wire.

After digging this tune up really I really wanted to try it again on acoustic (which I don't play much). This is a second take recorded in…
A reverse take (recorded live at a gig) of a couple of Pink Floyd covers. The amazing Bill Pohl on 2nd guitar. It came out sounding strangely symphonic.
This is the audio version of my blacksmithing lesson from http://ironangelforge.blogspot.com/

Written in 1982 after a trip to Wyoming with a couple of Alex DeGrassi cassettes....
This song was made by two different piano samples (both
from Sudara):
1. One was recorded by Sudara (and gang?) axing away at a hapless old piano in New Mexico.
2. today, I convinced Sudara to noodle on the piano and send it over to me…
A Prog Rock instrumental with guitar and keyboard melodies and solos. Three parts to this song. Depicting peace and joy on The Path of Light. A cross between Yes and jam band music. Randal Pflum, all instruments except drums.

Excellent mate very cool indeed.
@Goose: I know nothing about guitars but I think Kirk's Stratotone is named "Clark". And not red.
Great tone on the recording: I have much to learn about recording Acoustic guitar.
aaaah improv the freedom to be,, to play, to explore,,, this is a very beautiful journey/study into one of the many musical side streets,,, very fine
Never mind the jazzy quartal thingy, I want to see the guitar man. Is it red?
While I know nothing about harmony, I will say that I prefer an augmented fifth, but seem to always end up with a diminished fifth. Sweet piece Kirk!
Very pretty melody!
... I'm digging into this space you have carved in time...

Way to improv it my friend. Loved it.
