Just one of those passing moods. Just finished today - august 2 2009. I resisted the temptation to try to develop it any further and just let it be what it is
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…

One from a year ago or so. Never was happy with the recording quality, but never got around to re recording it. My attempt at a kind of late 70's Phil Keaggy thing
Love this one. You really do make the guitar sing. On my favorites for sure. You have soul....and btw nice pic of you hugging your guitar. That says it all. That kind of emotion is HEARD in ur tracks. :)
Similar in feel to the other Fragile Moment track. Mostly acoustic guitars recorded sitting in my shop on the H4N and then finished up in Cubase just this morning. September 9 09. Maybe a nice one for bedtime
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later

My old buddy and collaboration partner Phil Close joined me on what is at or near the last song for my last album. I wrote the song and sang--Phil did everything else you hear. Dance in the New Year.
Dance, Little Sister.
Dance till you…
This song is not for everyone but I like it because its a live recording with a single instrument using infinity delay FX. (I turned on the loop delay at :09 after the guitar was flat on the floor.)
All the sounds are made with an acoustic bass…
Well, this is a single minute of music around this wonderfull 'Angel Eyes' song. I hope you like and/or enjoy this miniature. Have a great 2011 alonetoners!

You live long enough... you take some real hits. And the only way to get on, is, to, "Pick myself up, walk down the long long road". Lifes real easy when it's all theoretical, but it's never been lived until the theories and philosophies are trashed…
A test track of sorts.
I typically mix a track, bounce it out to my ipod and then go for a drive. The stereo in my truck is kind of boomy and if I get the bass wrong, I'll hear about it. This has been a matter of a certain amount of guesswork…
I used sonar 8.5 matrix view to turn my M-audio 88es into a sampler keyboard - assigning samples to almost every key. Most of the samples are field recordings from today and yesterday - most of the others are recordings I made of a drumset I…
I did this last summer as I can hear a car go by my window. Anyway it's an old song by the great Hoagy Carmichael. I wanted to wait until I could redo the vocal part because I am not happy with it. It's just a scratch track and after I listened…
Co-written and performed with William Liggett. Tried to make it a 'duet', but not being in the same state--much less studio--made it too hard to match phrasing.
"High Life" is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. My friends from that part of the world consider this be the "go-to" rhythm for just about anything…
Totally unique sound you've developed with these BL tracks. Great stuff! I have to wonder though how this went over at a place called "super happy funland". With that name I figured you'd have to dress in a clown suit and play the beer barrel polka!
Performed live by Rainbowtruth @ Irish Brigade Fredricksburg, VA circa late 1990's.
Barnett: Guitar/lead vocal
Osborne: Drums/back-up vocal
Duff: Guitar
Bowers: Bass

*adds to the applause at the end*
I can listen to this all day. Really.
*amazed* WOW... man, it sends me into a trance! THANK YOU!!!!!!!
wow Kirk, this IS great! I feel the Irish landscape in my mind
Another very nice piece. Love the melody instrument. Synth? Flute?
Excellent guitar work here, Kirk. I wish I could play as well. ER
@ lastsalutefolk- That was in standard tuning, but down about a half step and capoed at the 2nd fret. Thanks for the comment! Much appreciated!
sumptuous...

Thanks for your comment mate. I look forward to hearing more from you
one cool groove. Low plucking guitar in time with ticking clock is sweet. You can tell an interesting story with your playing.
mighty fine !

Kicks butt right from the start and doesn't let up. Nice work!
Wow! That is very cool in a free stream of consciousness way
That's really nice! Too short though- I was just getting into it and it was over. Love the mellow intro and then the flow into the heavier stuff.
Nice writing Dave! Love that shift of feel after 3 minutes
Oh Yeah! That kicks some major butt!
Lovely playing there!
However you did it this is beautiful!
Missed this one of yours. Great stuff! Love those little guitar bits in the background
Lovely sounds! Once again I'm envious of your clean tones.
Interesting stuff. Definitely thinking outside the box
Cool! Love those whispered vox in the background
Sweet!
Great piece of writing! Love the spare arrangement. Nice guitar!
Excellent! I find it interesting that in almost every one of these that you list the BPM I feel them in half time, so I would think of this as 110 BPM

Cool! Dig the double tracked vox!
Yes! Smoking hot cover of a great tune. Great guitar!
Interesting combination of sounds and textures. Nice work!
Aptly titled. Very Beautiful!
Gorgeous!
