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
...nice energy here, man. I like the freshness I pick up in much of what you are writing/performing.
Thanks for your interest/comments. Maybe we can colab. on something some time soon.
Peace- kss
A moody solo acoustic thing that I came up with playing in a long forgotten tuning. Just got a new Zoom H4N, so this was recorded in my shop sitting at my reedmaking bench may 12 2009

So, while tinkering in your shop you spy the new H4 sitting there, beckoning. You grab the guitar and spontaneously generate this very pretty thing, to break in the H4. It's another impressive performance! To respond to your question... I plan to be here, at least to listen to the great music. Barriers to recording include all the usual, oceans, stubborn equipment, yada yada. Eventually, there will be more music.
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
Kirk, thanks so much for your nice comment. I miss hanging out with all my friends that were in this band, but I must admit I miss working Chris Mitchell the most. His guitar playing was top notch & always surprised me in really cool ways. One of the hardest parts about leaving Dallas for Tennessee was ending that musical collaboration that had been ongoing for nearly a decade...
New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…

I hesitate to upload this, but there are a couple folks around who like this sort of thing. This is an edited down version of a jam I had with myself back at the end of 2007. Live to 2 tracks with the aid of the Jamman. I think it was the first…

Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.
Background music for a fun father/daughter YouTube video editing collaboration/experiment (embedded here.) My daughter and I filmed and edited the movie, and I wrote the music after hearing some video-game music my daughter wanted me to emulate…
I can hear the influence of the Bulgarian Duda players in some of the keyboard melodies. Great stuff. Meant to get back and listen to the rest of your stuff for a while now- thanks for this
Earlier this year I was in a community choir, mostly senior citizens performing songs by bands like Soundgarden and Green Day. One of the songs, "Grateful," had a lyric that went 'In a city of strangers/I have a family of friends.' It was Halloween…
One of the songfight inspired titles for RPM 2007. This was also picked out of a hat. This one is the mother of all semitone slide bass/root note chord smashers. It's everywhere. The lyrics are some of my favorite, though most people have no idea…
Enjoying your stuff Gary. Thanks for the comments as well. That was ebow on the "timekeeper" cut. I'll check out more of your stuff when I have a bit more time. Love the chorus on this BTW
uncle-nephew collaboration:
My nephew banged on the guitar, I found a few usable loops in there. I had him sing" the people in the city are runnin' 'cause the robots in the…
This song is done in a dropped F tuning. I won't bore you with the tuning itself, but the same tuning makes an appearance in Consequence, Painted Tense, 70 and others. My favorite part of the song is the verse after the solo. For some reason I…
the music is a gift to char. she is a generous friend. she is "charming". this is an idea from her. she spoke of the inner child. we all have an inner child. i wanted to write a lullaby. it is slow, gentle and soft. it attempts to describe wonder…

Nice and fresh sense of development here, man. Thanks for the kind comments earlier. ks
This whole jam is great, I really dig your style of playing on this piece, and I especially love the lick about 2:40 or so... so smooth...
beautifully done!
...beautiful decisions/arpeggions --you texture-meister --RICH ; thanks for the soulful sounds (Also- thanks for the encouraging notice.)
@ LAM- thanks for the comments man- much appreciated. I wish the axe was attached a little better most of the time :)
Is that guitar humanly attached to your hip, you both sound as one:)
Wow! Awesome..are you related to Santana..
Short but sweet, I like it..
Love it!
Awesome man!

Love that super melodic bass line- great stuff here!!
Can't wait to check out the video. The music is fabulous!
Everything works over a drone! That is some spooky sounding stuff!!
Takes me to a nice place within myself- dig it!!
I'm a sucker for anything sung in the Celtic languages- Very pretty
Very Cool- I like the ambient quality of this
Beautiful song man- hadn't heard this one before
Really love the moody feel of this one- great track
Really cool track- would love to hear more from you!!

Damn- this kicks major butt. Love the crunchy guitar sounds!!
Can't wait to hear the larger work- this is fascinating!!
Very nice and I really like the guitar part
Enjoying your stuff Gary. Thanks for the comments as well. That was ebow on the "timekeeper" cut. I'll check out more of your stuff when I have a bit more time. Love the chorus on this BTW
Great fun collaboration. Nothing like a good healthy dose of musical violence every once in a while!!!
Another beauty Richard. Had not heard this one before
Excellent! Love the kinda Beatlesque vocals and the guitar sounds!!
Wonderful vocal arrangement!!
Now that ROCKS- I needed a good dose of something like this this morning. Cool stuff
