Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment
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…

Oh wonderful! Such a treat to find a new track from you, SFS! Wonderful sounds as always. Love your style in this dreamy setting. I shall add it to my "Tunes from the Bordello" playlist. Bonus track!

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

Thanks for posting this. It's always nice to go diggin' through the ol' stax to stumble on lost forgotten gems. I think I recall you guys playing this live...very happy to be able to hear it again now.
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
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
Roger…
this is classical music half the parts are played live in one go then copied for other instruments. the original takes are three and a half minutes long then copied to make this 6 minute piece all the parts were played on the laptop keyboard…
I am not BT, so no rain drops were quantized in this production.
Storm was recorded last night on my Tascam DR-07 (with wind filter and limiter).
Just a simple piano improv. That of course had to be tweaked far out of the improv stage.
Pain is inspired by my bout with severe nerve damage in my lower back. As anyone who has ever had a good hurt can tell you, it gives you an internal feeling of chaos that often comes and goes in waves and spikes. The music follows this pattern…
Just a quick conceptual sketch of a new piece we're brewing. 210 bpm, 5/4, with 6 bars per phrase. We'll probably take this down once we've got more there. Our poor pianist will probably get carpal-tunnel syndrome from this.
Instrumentation…
it is icy. it moves. it is glacially inevitable. the listener may percieve tension. a desire to break free. a wish to increase velocity. it is impossible. it will proceed at its own pace. relax.
White Light was written in June along with 10 other "Off the cuff" tunes. Just before the great flood in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Our house was flooded and slowly being rebuilt. This is 4th of the 10 to be recorded.
Recorded: August 8, 2009
Details: Epiphone Les Paul (DADGAD/DADGBE - capo III), Seymour Duncan Pickups, POD XT, Boss RC-20 Looper, Audacity, Sound Forge.
I'm convinced that composing/recording daily is the best way to really find out if a DAW fits your workflow. And I think Ableton Live nailed its final nail in the coffin for me tonight.
See, if I weren't writing so much, so quickly, I would be…

Gorgeous! Sooo much love and heart and soul and feel. Fabulous, incredible, sweet.
Nice counterpoint.
Great tones and playing, almost missed this one, thnx fer da find.
Cool guitarscape. Sounds like your putting that DL4 to good use!
Very cool. Be interested in hearing how you connected all the bits.
That's Superman's guitar. Better give it back. He lives here now. PO# 359 Wawarsing N.Y. Please use express shipping.
Guitar sounds real solid. Is it the fat neck model? They're supposed to be real sweet for slide work.
Thanks for resurrecting "Clark". Someone up there is smiling. Blue ribbon meditative experiment. More please !!

Maybe I'm just in the mood for dark and slightly disturbing this morning, but I like this!
Lovely as always! That build up at about 4 minutes is just great
Wow- This is a refreshing change of pace for you- Lovely stuff!!
Nice moody piece!
I needed a good butt kicking this morning- thanks!
The storm is the perfect backdrop for this- nice!
Oooh- that is some pain!. Love the storm sounds in the background
Very cool- had to come back and check it out again. Love it when the bass drops out and then re- appears
Not my usual cup of tea, but this is really well done. Great textures and that shift at about 3 minutes is just too cool!
Has attitude! I like it!!
Love the sinister chord progression!
Wackiness incarnate! Great fun. Can't wait to hear more
Oh Yeah- laid back nice stuff!!
A wonderful icy trip. Great sounds!
Great hook - really nice sounding production. Love the guitar tones!
Great stuff - love the beginning
Nice one man!
Rant on Yelyah- just keep making tracks like this- great!
What a great rhythmic groove!
Wild stuff- I like it!
