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
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

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 probably the last of this stuff from the archives that I'll upload. Rescued from a cassette tape of a live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen. These tunes are popular down in the Southwest of Ireland. Michael(Fiddle) and…
Had these backing tracks laying around on my drive for a while and didn't know what to do with them, so grabbed my Ebow and a fretless electric that I built for myself a couple years ago and had a go. My fretless playing is really in its infancy…
My first attempt at a Blumlein or Mid/Side recording. This one is actually a mid/side recording as I used a directional mic in combo with a figure 8 ribbon mic set at 90 degrees from the main mic. Thanks to Pat Broaders for the loan of the ribbon…

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…
Lovely sounds. I can't figure out how you're using the slide on the picking hand - or I can't here where it might be in use... but just as a piece of music and playing this is beautiful.

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
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

Very cool guitars going on, creating a cool mellow atmosphere taking one into an upbeat movement of the mind and then back, Great !!!, having a cool listen. "G"
This is a track I've been working on for quite a while so I am glad to finally have it out of my head.
I have a kind of love/hate relationship with time and its humble functionary, the clock. Ticking, in particular, is something I am ambivalent…
(A remastered version of a Sound 1 Project 3)
I wanted to try something different with this one. The album is so packed with digital-sounding songs that I just needed to mix things up.
It hasn't been possible for me to record or write anything for the last couple months, so I decided mine the archives once again. Here's a set of Irish jigs I recorded in my basement...ok, one ot the tunes is call "Happy to Meet" (the first I…
A little something that came out of playing with the Max4Live content.
The guitar sound, which I'm particularly happy with is a combination of my GT-10, CamelSpace and the M4L buffer shuffler.
Bouncy, with ear candy. Wanted to do something different with this one, keep it from being too predictable. I think I succeeded. I also happen to really like my "squawk, squawk" gtr stabs in the verses.
The original was called "Opportunity." Here's the accompanying words. Hope you like it!

Winter comes and goes.
Spring between winters.
Boots crunch dry lichens.
Walking on gray stone,
The roots of the earth pulled up through the skin…
A song recorded today. Lyrics by Gordy Macdonald.
Lyrics:
How can I make a promise?
And how can I make it real?
How can you say you love me
When your lips don't move at all?
How can you see it coming?
And how will you know it's me?
How will…
I sent the tracks for this tune to a friend of mine who owns a professional studio. I gave him no instructions on how to mix it, as I wanted someone else's take on the music. He created a very dry, intimate mix, focusing more on the acoustic guitars…

Great job. Who would have thought that eight minutes of clock sounds could be that interesting. Love the way it builds.
Great track. Love the rhythms and the accordion melody
How creative! Like it!
Well done. Dig it!

Nice set man. I don't have a name for the second tune either, but I think the last one is called "Colemans' Jig"
