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.

I deleted this a while ago I think. Just found it on a CD and decided to put it back up for your listening pleasure. It demonstrates the proper usage of a washboard!
This is something I did on my own a couple years ago that we're thinking of tackling as a band and including on our sophomore LP. It certainly has some different textures than what we're prone to churning out, so the re-arrangement process will…
What we are is mostly water
On our way back to the sea
I have made this trip so many times
I'm just glad you're here with me
Fall alone or fall together
Either way we will be one
You and me, we will reach the sea
And have need for names no more…
I wanted to start composing in the "classical" or "romantic" style for piano. This is the first movement of a sonata fantasia, its a sonata because it has three movements, but a fantasia because it doesnt have the exact structure of a sonata.
This came directly from an improv. It's a Taylor 814 CE in standard tuning with a capo on the second fret. It's similar to Managerie in structure but has a very different feel.
Melodic, peaceful, and trance-inducing instrumental. Used a synth clav as the underlying thematic instrument, then layered a few other things on top. The "guitar" counter-melody at the end is me playing a bass in the upper registers.
First recording of a new idea... hopefully it will grow into something more. I just stuck the mic in the air and started going - so, sorry the sound quality is sub par.
Lyrics:
I'm not sleeping
I'm staring at the ceiling
My mind's a thousand miles away
I'm finding faces in the shapes
of plaster that was scraped on the ceiling
Killing time is not so bad
but when you're trapped inside your head…
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.
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.
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.
