Wow. Nice reel (even if it's named after a lathe -- I am intrigued by the shop-vac idea, though!). All those are really nicely put together and nicely played. Have to get you to play the South Bend next time I'm up there.
Nice, nice. I hope you guys had as much gum making music as the music is fun to listen to!
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…
you read my descriptions and you're still asking me if I know the name of that tune? Haha...I'm pretty sure I got it from you! Galtee Rangers might be one of them...

Man, brings back some nice memories (except for Dugger's snoring)...I always thought you guys had some great arrangements. I miss you playing the pipes, I don't miss me playing the pipes.
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

Just great stuff... I have that tendency from time to time to forget that music is a performance art, and that there's really nothing like live music. Thanks, Kirk, for putting this up!

The berimbau is a brazilian percussion/string instrument that is the foundation for this tune.
Thanks to Dana (Alontoner) who added the sweet backup vocals to make this a much better piece.
And thanks also to K. Scot Sparks (Alonetoner…
Nothing like a good gtr riff to inspire a song. This one is backwards in a way. The first verse has a lot of layers, the second one is much cleaner...
I had fun doing the backing vox on this one, it was the first day I really had my voice back…
Using the microKORG, GarageBand drum kits, and a cheap acoustic guitar. Beware, it is far from done. The final version will likely be longer and less repetitive (if possible).
The close friend of mine who helped engineer this session said my gtr sounded like a swarm of angry bees. That's the best compliment I can think of. This was a mayhem producer when played live. I barely was able to keep it together in the studio…
Solo acoustic finger picking thing I've been working on for a while. Sometime around 1968 I started studying with Mr. George Bennett who taught me the rudiments of finger picking. Later when we played some gigs together he also taught me the rudiments…

That must have been one hella lathe. Awesome performance.
I hate autocorrect. Insert "fun" for "gum," I think.
Wow. Nice reel (even if it's named after a lathe -- I am intrigued by the shop-vac idea, though!). All those are really nicely put together and nicely played. Have to get you to play the South Bend next time I'm up there. Nice, nice. I hope you guys had as much gum making music as the music is fun to listen to!

I always loved that last tune...
whether one likes this genre or not, that is certainly a very entertaining song, in its most musical sense. bravo!
crackin' set and yes that closer is a firey* arrangement - nice one! the adjective of fire?
Man, brings back some nice memories (except for Dugger's snoring)...I always thought you guys had some great arrangements. I miss you playing the pipes, I don't miss me playing the pipes.
Damn, this song is just plain beautiful... Everything I hope I can be someday as a guitarist (and know that I never will). Incredible stuff, Kirk!
Just more incredible stuff!

That, my friend, was freakin' awesome! You are one talented sumgum!!!

Sweet Baby J. Great stuff!

Get's my Irish up. I'm feeling like a Boondock Saint.

These are all great man. Where you been hiding this stuff?
Very cool- that could have been twice as long.
This was always a favorite of mine from this record
