Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
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 is gorgeous ... many, many take-your-breath-away moments. I didn't want it to end. And what a warm, shimmering tone you captured - great recording!
Kinda rough. I'm uploading this mainly to share a guitar technique I've been working on. I'm wearing a slide on my picking hand and using it to alter pitches in single line phrases. There's a lot more can be done with this technique that I've…

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 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

What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman
Welp... I didn't do a feckin' thing all weekend. No laundry, no nuthin'. So I figured I'd beat the living hell out of my Ibanez in order to make up for it.
A juvenile song at best, but I feel better now :)
One take in the MBR hole... I'll…
Nothing to do with Wiccans. I can't remember why I called it 'Pentangle' - probably the first word that entered my head when it came time to save. I like to go with whatever bubbles up from the subconscious.
Part one of a mini-musical within the album, that never quite felt finished...but we love the first chapter!
*update* this is now an official track on the album...poss. our feat. track!
I came up with the initial rhythmic riff on my bass, then looped it to create the basis for this track. Then, I layered another "lead" bass track on top of that, added some percussion, and finally topped it off with an electric piano-ish sound…
Well, this is number 10, and with only 8 days left, I think we may be calling it on this one. There are alot of scraps left over, and even a few experiments left to showcase, including a three part duet! but alas, time is escaping into the void…
This is an "unplugged" version of a song that features a nylon stringed acoustic guitar. All instruments played by Barry Morgan and mixed and mastered in his home studio.
Kind of a chillout, lullaby type tune.

Notes:
I think the shaker comes in too strong. I think the intro goes on for probably 1 or 2 more phrases than it should.

Think about looking up at the sun on a hot sweaty day, and think about all the times you wished you had a hat and sunglasses. Then imagine accidentally stumbling upon a huge ass oasis with a crap load of beautiful women and awesome drinks with…

Wow - I closed my eyes and it became a soundtrack to a most beautiful and wonderful movie!
Wow! That's beautiful.
This is beautiful. It gets right into the center and tugs away.
Oh wow, this is fantastic ... heart-voice captured by music. Not many pieces bring a tear to my eye.

Did you ever listen to John Renborne?
Wow got a real Blue eyed American approach to it . organ back + bass is spot on . Loved the stumbling drum kit
Got a Classic feel! Counterpoint, with triplets is really cool.
glorious as usual, Kirk. Glorious. Your stuff always hits a soft spot in my soul.
I think i need to go analog if it would make me play like this.......
