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"
Mellow morning mist fall
Melting into day
This summer said son, you are lazy
Don’t follow any example, break every rule
After awhile you’ll find it’s so easy to do
Just stay within the limits of your love
Soon the air will turn colder…
Lots of stuff going on here. Homegrown Piano loop, 12 string and 6 string acoustic loops. Some fuzzed up guitars, bass, and a sprinkle of harmonica.
Oh yeah, and Zippo slide....
Jamming with a couple buddies. I screwed the lyrics up but it was fun to do. Who doesn't want to at least try an AC/DC tune?
A live recording:
Me: Vox, Bass
Joel: Guitar, Backing Vox
Chris: Drums, Backing Vox
For 2011 RPM Challenge album John the Resonator
A Sword and Sorcery parody. With Elvis.
Daughter Brit sang the vocal in the middle part.
Elvis was the mountain king
Who ruled the land of El-Karyaang
His wife Priscilla lady fair
Was taken…
I'm sill looking for better lyrics for this but i like listening to it. EDIT i found them - see v2
It's been up at the Challenge site for a few days so i thought it ought to be up here too
This song was inspired by a melody my then 2 year old daughter was playing on the harmonica one day back in 2004. I picked up my guitar and strummed along....I kept playing around with it and "Caught in the Rain" was born.
A live studio take,made in San Francisco's "Different Fur Studio"deep in the heart of the "mission district"..a live audience made it a lot of fun!2010
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
This is the instrumental version of A Cast of Billions. I have a hard time judging my own voice (thus a true singer I am not) and it seems this vocal was rougher than most of mine. So, lets try over again with this mix.

Wow, you're making sounds that are just so expressive. I've had a great time listening to just a selection this evening.
