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
Kirk, my name is Don Powers, I live in weston, on 5th st. Long time ago I stopped out side your house because I saw you playing through you window. We talked for a while then one other day you let me come in and I was going to try to jam with you , a mistake as I am no where near the musician you are. I just stumbled on to your web site. Glad I did. enjoyed listening. Maybe someday before I croke I will improve enough on one of the instruments I try to play, to get another chance to jam with you. Nice site.

This is a Phil Keaggy tune. I swiped his original loop and then built my own thing on top of it. Might have been longer, but my volume swell effect keeps slipping out of sync with everything else. May work on it more at a later date
Welp... I didn't do a feckin' thing all weekend. No laundry, no nuthin'. So I figured I'd beat the living hell out of my Ibanez in order to make up for it.
A juvenile song at best, but I feel better now :)
One take in the MBR hole... I'll…
Nothing to do with Wiccans. I can't remember why I called it 'Pentangle' - probably the first word that entered my head when it came time to save. I like to go with whatever bubbles up from the subconscious.
Part one of a mini-musical within the album, that never quite felt finished...but we love the first chapter!
*update* this is now an official track on the album...poss. our feat. track!
I came up with the initial rhythmic riff on my bass, then looped it to create the basis for this track. Then, I layered another "lead" bass track on top of that, added some percussion, and finally topped it off with an electric piano-ish sound…
Well, this is number 10, and with only 8 days left, I think we may be calling it on this one. There are alot of scraps left over, and even a few experiments left to showcase, including a three part duet! but alas, time is escaping into the void…
This is an "unplugged" version of a song that features a nylon stringed acoustic guitar. All instruments played by Barry Morgan and mixed and mastered in his home studio.
Kind of a chillout, lullaby type tune.

Notes:
I think the shaker comes in too strong. I think the intro goes on for probably 1 or 2 more phrases than it should.

Think about looking up at the sun on a hot sweaty day, and think about all the times you wished you had a hat and sunglasses. Then imagine accidentally stumbling upon a huge ass oasis with a crap load of beautiful women and awesome drinks with…

Nice, clean and funky.
