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

One of the joys of listening to music on the internet is encountering music that sets off chimes of inspiration in our own minds. This holds especially true when the one doing the inspiring is a friend. Bruce Lesisko uploaded a song called Flyfinger…

The circus is leaving, for good. Adults are happy (oh, at last they were gone!). Children are unhappy (there was a lion and clown, acrobats and candy and ... all that!). Ahh...
~You'll not believe, but: nothing lasts forever. Lollipop even~
Leafless trees hung low in the cold.
I saw myself kneel, fall, die all alone.
No pity, no tears, no profound song.
Just gone.
The limbs of the trees broke in the wind.
Worn and old from beckoning, again and again.
But no god came. In the end…

Pastichio Rocker aka PDOA wrote and performed/programmed this electronica piece and asked me to write and sing a lyric for it. Despite (or maybe because of ) my accent, we considered it a success. It got some college-radio airplay.

Ok, this is another of my few blues (late 90 i guess..). I was playing it today and recorded several times. I don't think this one is the best one, but it has something that i really like. This record is the plane rythmic guitar. Later i was playing…
Some people need to fall down every now and then.
LYRICS:
Won't you ever go away

Did you ever cross the line

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 !!

Pretty damn cool sounds man!
Didn't understand a word you said about how this was done, but it sounds very cool!
Sweet blues!
Exotic sounds. Has an Oriental feel sometimes on the edge of chaos but remains very musical!
Nice! Can't go wrong with cowbell AND feedback!
