Another one from back when I was tracking to actual tape. Was going to do a new version at some point, but decided I had lost interest. Sometimes there's no sense in recreating the past! Recorded probably the beginning of 2007

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
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

I've been trying to write a comment here for a good 10 minutes, but nothing is coming out right. I'm so very happy and honored you put your music up here, we are lucky to have you.

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…
Comments on kirklynch's stuff
Great groove, man, great playing as always. So should record something when we get together or just hit the pubs of Weston?
Great picking!
sweet playing! Nice composition, too.
so I was about to say: the hours you've put in since 1968 have paid off, kirk. This is Georgeous!
you've certainly put the hours in, kirk. Sounds georgeous!!
You had me at 10. I LOVE THE BLUES!. Excellent work Kirk! w;-) This may double post...something strange going on?
Oh I love the change of pace at around 1 minute. More magic from the magic hands of Mr Lynch.
Oooooo Bluesy, love it, you have my admiration yet again.
Oh yes, gorgeous, love it!
Beautiful man I dig your sound
Nice one mate this is finger pickin good
the music really tells a story. beautiful work.
This is Fun, especially LouD. Next time someone says, "the elephant in the room", I'm bound to think of it.
Kirk, another nice one, I'd recognise your playing anywhere. We need to get together for some beer and ebows...
Beautiful, exquisite...what else can I say?
So good. Saw Tommy Emmanuel the other night, and he played some great mellow fingerpicking like this, great to hear it!

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!
