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

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

Thank you for the comment! Yes, the hiss does bring a certain something to the song, like so many uncontrollable drones. The hiss wasn't necessarily intentional, but I left it in for a reason..glad you like it! Anyway, I like what I'm hearing from you so far :) very calming to listen to, good morningtime music

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…

Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

Psychedelic Blues - A plant grown from the roots of Robert Johnson, treated by Koko Taylor, cared for by John Lennon, continued growing in the hands of Tom Waits and finally adopted and infused as a hybrid by Morgan Hill. Something new that somehow…
The song that really kicked off this second album of 2009.
"In time all the stars will fade away
Our kind won't get to see it anyway
No shine, just endless black between the gray
I won't be going out in that way"
This spooky track utilizes the "Paulstretch" program to stretch recordings of gongs, chimes and bells to 8.04 times their native length: no other effects were made to these acoustic recordings other than to stretch them. The gongs utilized are…

This traditional Cuban rhythm is the well established "go-to" pattern for 4/4 songs. It is perhaps the most commonly heard conga pattern in 4/4 music. The bongo pattern that accompanies the congas is referred to as "martillo" (the hammer…
"Luna":
Ir, nunca volver al viento sur...
Ni dejar marcas de arena o rastros.
Yo estaré bien en la marea.
Luna, guía mis pasos
encauzados por lágrimas de mar.
Ir, nunca volver al viento sur, perfecto y frío
Surcaré grises cuerpos…
This is about the free spirit soaring high above the seas, forests, cities and times.

Nice! Had to do some googling while listening to learn about quartal harmony.
The bar is in every town. Let's get a drink! Nice guitar jams, I'm bobbing my head.
Good one Kirk! Very melodic.
An improv?! That's astonishing! Soaring, soothing, emotive sounds! Love the build. Love the finale.
Waves of electric gorgeousness! Very cool!
I like this, man. I hadn't heard it before (or if so, wasn't paying attention). It's really nice.
Great tones and effects mix.
Such a gorgeous edible tone. Nice Flash Gordon ending there too.
