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…
I really love your sound and playing here. This will be my bench-mark. I will work on my acoustic and try to reach a height such as this, Your song will be my constant inspiration. Thank you good sir. It may take me a while, but your playing here has inspired me.
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

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…

Archival stuff from my distant past with former bandmates in Scartaglen. A set of traditional Irish tunes. Rescued from a cassette tape done at a concert back in the early 90's. Myself on Uilleann pipes and whistle. Mike dugger on guitar and fiddle…

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…
Really fun to listen to as well. Can imagine that fretless is hard to master, but you've sure done it. Fretless+ebow seems like a winning combo in your hands !!

This salty man's a salty dog
His travels have left him weary
Got boots all lined up at the door
He's must be carrying stones again...
His salty wife waits on salty shores
Tending the child she carries
Washing his wounds with olive soap…
Some people talk to me
Ask me what I do for a living
Use some rocks to grind my grain
Little bit of whiskey to tickle the brain
Valley fever giving me rest
Smokestack choked out to my west
Drink a little of the H2O
Give it a little…
Fourth track recorded live at Proctors Theater in Schenectady NY sometime in 1994. this instrumental was written by our guitar payer, Crick (Christian Diefendorf). We had the place all to ourselves. A huge Victorian theater with us just set up…

Nice! Loved that descending chromatic lick at about 1:11 I got my bass and drum sounds with a Roland GR20 on those jam tracks. Thanks for listening Man!
have you ever been going about your business, and you get sucked into a brightly colored, blocky realm? it seems you can not die, when mortally wounded you just come back to where you were like 5 minutes ago...you master this 8 bit realm and become…
