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…
Straight ahead stone city electric blues for an old friend who used to spend hours spinning BB King and Mike Bloomfield records for me. Recorded back sometime at the end of 2006 on old analog equipment

You Have hit close to home with this beauty track. I just had to put my old dog (16y) and old cat (17y) down the same week, about a month ago. It is still raw with me. this song soothes my mind. Really lovely and recorded so well.
I swore that I would NEVER upload this. Was having a bad day trying to loop "nice" acoustic guitar sounds and got frustrated so grabbed my Taylor and plugged it into a cheesy Effects box and straight into the looper. Started twiddling knobs and…

Very emotional in its own way. Those added "bends" tell a story about being blind-sided and trying to maintain composure in a topsy-turvy world. Or...it could just be a demo of a new technique. ;)

I 2nd the request for a video. I'm assuming you are pushing the slide off the bridge toward the neck - correct? I've net ever heard of someone putting the slide on the picking hand before - but it sure sounds great!! Beautiful piece of work here Kirk!!

Awesome. I hadn't read the description and couldn't figure out what was going on here. Very David Gimour in both tone and quality. Would love to see a glimpse of what you're doing.

Blues Guitar for Christmas as a metaphor for saying farewell to the outgoing something (sound cool, eh?). P.S. Nothing to do with my favorite Michael Brook album with the same title - Cobalt Blue.

All right, so one of those silly songs needed to find its way onto the album. In an effort to teach the students on my middle school team about rhythm in poetry, I wrote this little bit of foolishness about a fictional character (so yes, you…
A silly song questioning the value of using songs to get a message across. Just say 'sorry' - don't write me an opera about it.
Incidentally the note choices in this song really did hurt me.

The Music tells the story. we all carry our true selves inside, and experience those who would tell us we are someone else. take this home, light a candle, dance widdershins, blow some smoke to the six directions.... and be free

At the lake we were crawling around
til our knees left bloodstains on the ground
licked our wounds and the pain went away

we dug holes and carved signs into trees
made ourselves a bed out of leaves

The cover I did off Uglifruit's 2010 RPM submission. The drums are a pair of hotrod sticks, that I made, hitting my keyboard table. The "kick drum is the stick hitting the pop screen while the mic was on.
I still need to fade...
Recorded in Hawaii, acoustic guitar and early morning trades through the trees. Keyboards and Bass track added by my brother Greg in Durango Colorado. Took Tess's (Sister Savages) advice and removed the percussion!
A blues number made using magix easy listening loops with Ardour software on Linux. This needs a lyric in the middle, but has instead been peppered here with almost random acoustic guitar jazz riffs. Had to use Audacity to take a chunk of the…

I frequently go on training skates on a beach front trail. The parking lot is just off of a major highway bridge (the Burlington Skyway for those that know it). It's always an interesting sound there...

Comments on kirklynch's stuff
great sound and playing, must try that since I have a pair of matched condensers.
This one is on my iPod.
Nicely played. I keep hearing BB King lyrics over it. Except when Clapton takes the stage.
I like the sustained feel on this one - and the melodic integrity - just perfect blues!
Sweet tone on that guitar! Nice.

Your stuff seems to getting more adventurous and progressive, and I really like it. Why no thumbs up icon?
Really nice work!
This mix's well with red wine Merry Christmas
Really beautiful here, Kirk! Thanks as always for taking the time to listen.
:) me like
This is very good. P.S. I'd really love to hear you do something with a heavier Sabbathy/AIC-type riff underneath.
I like when people sneak in 9th's and diminished whatchamacallims . . . fingers in strange places + cool solo = awesome song.

So nice i had to listen again...man your guitar sounds sweet in this one
That is really cool. Your gonna make millions. Let me know when they are ready for shipping.

Now that's something different for you!Kind of like the circus of the damned just arrived in town! I like it!

Gorgeous melody man!
