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

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…
When I hear these tracks, I always feel I missed out on some great times. But, having said that, the atmosphere comes through and the music is superb.
Long live folk!!
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…

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…
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

Another one from back when I was tracking to actual tape. Was going to do a new version at some point, but decided I had lost interest. Sometimes there's no sense in recreating the past! Recorded probably the beginning of 2007
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…

Something I'm working on. I'm a sucker for 5/4 time these days.
The biggest issue is the vocals which are sort of a placeholder right now until I re-write and re-record them, or maybe even find someone who can actually sing to lay something down!

I don't know if it's tacky to listen to your own stuff but I actually do listen to this one a lot.
I've ben away from most of ya, and I'm sorry for that. Thing's have slowed down, and I can't wait
to hear everyone's new music, to try and be an artist, a full time employee and ect....it can be
awfully frustrating. I can't wait to listen and…
This odd time signature tune was recorded on September 13, 1991, on a 4-track cassette tape. I imported it into Logic Studio, tweaked the effects and adjusted the levels, and here it is. Instrumentation used: an Alesis HR-16 drum machine, bass…
This song is based around a sample that I took of my dish washer. The sample starts out simple enough and then gets more chopped up at the end. The song evolved from there. Also in this song is a new pedal I got that is a photo theremin. You…
Happy Sunday Alonetoner's.
I wrote this song yesterday as I had some recent events to ponder.... I hope you like it. Trying for a bit of a bluesy feel. If you'd like to download it and add some background blues bass or guitar, or harmonies…

12 string? Beautiful
Wonderful tune, superbly played!
I'm usually not a fan of a big celtic sound, but this is just amazing. Beautiful and happy. This really moves me.
~In ancient ages we drank (a bit, of course) and danced by candlelight~
Oh Kirk, it's lovely. I shall enjoy this one as much as the others. Thank you!
