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…
From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…
I'll bet the neighbors just LOVE you when you break out the pipes! I guess it could be worse; the Loch Ness Monster Pub in Pasadena used to have a Highland Piper on Sundays, in full Highland drag, too!

What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman

Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…

Rough sketch of a proposed dreamy 12 string piece that I couldn't pull off on the 12 string so did this quick electric version with vocal pads. Not sure of the recording quality- sounds OK in my cans and kinda crappy on my monitors. Recorded march…

We listen for years for words to explain ourselves. "I'm good but not THAT good," was such a moment for me. Good enough to stay in the game but never good enough to win.
Last night I kissed somebody
I kissed somebody…
On this beach made of sand and shells
and broken hearts
as with so many things in this life
it ends where it starts
And like the waves that will roll over me
you take away everything that I see
So I walk to the place where the sand
and sky…
The Holy Spirit helps us to communicate our deepest feelings to God, even when words fail us. Even when we are broken, confused, tongue-tied - when we pray, the Holy Spirit will speak for us, "with sighs too deep for words."
I think this is the first song that I've posted here under Mannequin Races that actually has a guitar in it. You can't really tell that it's a guitar but it's in there (middle section around the 1:50 mark). The guitar is heavily modulated but…
Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…
You've got the buttons
that are made out of my bones
You've got the ghost of me
that still can stitch them on
And ev'ry time you close your vest
you will hold me near
But that's as close as I'll ever get
to you my dear, I fear
Up in…
Well, my son and I were sitting around the backyard last night. A nice fire going, I was playing my acoustic, and we heard this crazy cricket chirping away very close to us. My son asked if I could record him with my "machine". Out came the…
Since Norm found himself in an acoustically great room, full of unfinished cabinets I couldn't help but add some acoustic guitar, crank it up and hope you like it Norm!
We went to visit my dad at his assisted living facility and they have a Yamaha Clavinova on which I improvised for a half hour to provide some entertainment. This is a ~ 3 minute excerpt from about half way through. This was recorded on my Zoom…

This is such a great tune.....gives hope at the end of a long week! Thank you!
Really enjoy the slinky feel and the bass tone on this one.
Very nice.
this reminds me of the band of gypsies.

So beautiful. I listen to this often and always have to catch my breath. Just gorgeous.

Great song!
That's a real Beaut man!
Excellent sounding mix. Dig it!
Gorgeous vocals!
Beautiful spacious guitar sounds! Thanks for your recent comment, and to answer your question- the guitar is a Goodall RCJC
What fun! Somehow missed this one of yours
This is Lovely!
Very nice! Must be the idea of having notches cut in the 2nd capo so that some strings pass through?
Sweet guitar tones! Like that thunder storm in there too!
Now That's DARK! Great sounds
Damn! That guitar work is as raw and tortured sounding as it gets. Very cool! I'm gonna go rub some salt in an open wound now!
Really Lovely track!
Great lyrics and vocals man!
Yep- That's Slammin' alright!
Sweet! You did a great job on that middle section!
You totally did this justice! Excellent!
Beautiful job Rick! That new axe is sounding great!
Very cool! Enjoyed that!
Aptly titled. This is what 3 Am Phone calls feel like
Love the moody guitars. Classic V.C. Sounds!
