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.
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

Ha ha, yep...well you know Kirk...me and silence have issues when I get ahold of a guitar. Maybe I should have done an acoustic version?? Now I gotta get my Jimi Jam on to break the post lunch lag!

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

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
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…
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

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...

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…

Comments on kirklynch's stuff
My only criticism of this day in January is that it was too short. This is sublime.
Chilling out, drinking red wine, listening to tunes from the bordello. Sweet life.
Love the sense of urgency in this otherwise laid back piece. Such a classic.
awesome flow and melody on this one.
excellent as always!!! KIRK EL MAESTRO DE LAS 6 CUERDAS!!!!!
I'm a huge Hendrix person. This jam made my day! Awesome stuff!
Man oh man...one of these days I really need to talk you into playing lead on one of my tracks ;) Damn I love this track

More polychords make their appearance . .. you're a sneaky composer, almost like Ralph Vaughn Williams meets Isaac Albeniz, if that makes sense.
Great guitars and chord sequences and licks.
Shades of Hackett and Gabriel but a light in it's own right.Great musicianship all round and a magical piece of wrtiting
This is a really nice song. I like the vibe....
always on my Ipod :)
You are very quickly becoming one of my favorite musicians...yes, the muse indeed...in fact, our neighbors collie passed last night...our sheltie, Emmitt, is in his last days...heartfelt kirk...merci

Nothing like a good circus tune! Poor children!
That's intense. Great lyrics!
Lovely mysterious sounds!
Wow- great piece of work. Love that processed vocal!

Very Nice! Enjoyed that!
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!
