Another one from the dusty special price bin! It started off as a Pilot cover, but it didn't end up that way.
Dave Berry added the excellent tele solos and the crazy cool noises at the end. Thanks bro, you rock!
I spent more time on this…
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
I recorded this one to a dimming flashlight on the 25th after a windstorm took out my power. I couldn't see the lyrics anymore so I ad libbed and hummed the rest out. My recording device is battery operated, which is cool.

My only musical Christmas present. Tharek(Osckilo) sent me a wonderful Spanish/Arab sounding guitar track. All I had to do was sing. Sometimes that is the biggest treat of all, and I took full advantage of it. Thanks, bro!!
All done on the…
A Halloween collab we did last fall that I thought was pretty cool. Designed to scare old ladies and make babies cry :) I love the way the song peters off in the end.
All tracks recorded with the Boss Micro BR, mixed with Audacity and mastered…

gee.... I've recorded under the same influence! "Excuse me sir... but could you tell us, for all your listeners out there, what was your influence in making this music?" "Oh, I'd say it was vodka....".

Nice, Launched. I'm a fan of the sparce, (when I do it I call it"austere", "minimalist", pisses off my friends who believe a song has to have certain things in it to be bonafide, and I love doing that too!)And, thanks for the listen, and the comments. New Hampshire? I'm in Kittery Point. Maybe we'll collide at the listening party.

Aw, sorry to hear about your RPM - was wondering.
I love this track - your voice sounds especially soulful, and the melody tugs at the listener.
And great back story.
still one of my personal faves. - although i'd wish to redo some parts, i'm stuck with this version, since i don't own one of the synths used there anymore..

I picked up on one of Norm's wonderful grooves.
I added some bass, guitar, horns, and a basic drum track. Kicker and snare with a few cymbols. I didn't want to walk on Norm's fine, fine, percussion.
Thanks Norm for allowing me the opportunity…
A second version with the initial lead guitar standing alone...a little cluttered after a few listens and some constructive feedback!
Norm's Groove for St Monica inspired this one. Thanks Norm!
Lead Guitar, bass guitar and acoustic guitar…
A long over due changing of the acoustic strings led to this epic production. 40 tracks and 34 plug-ins. Good Gravy that's a boat load of tracks. All kinds of stuff happening.
Enjoy!
you spend your days and your night times

Nothing special, the last track I wrote and recorded for this unfinished CD.
last eve there was a beautiful moon
dancing in a blue black sky
outside my piano room, it called to me
this tune is a one take playful moment, loosely based on the main theme from the 2nd mov of my piano sonata,,, i only toned down about…
More stuff from the ancient archives rescued from the same cassette tape as Last Nights Fun. This time a set of 3 Irish reels Live at a concert back around 1992

After a week of computer crashes, I finally got my gear all back to normal. I got my drum kit hooked up yesterday and did a test run which led to this bit of Saturday morning fun that only

Archival stuff from my distant past with former bandmates in Scartaglen. A set of traditional Irish tunes. Rescued from a cassette tape done at a concert back in the early 90's. Myself on Uilleann pipes and whistle. Mike dugger on guitar and fiddle…
This is a microtonal Jazz-ish piece produced with some newly developed techniques.
Norm Harris provides the excellent percussion. I probably could have made it easier on myself by not being so chromatic… but there it is.
The piano, bass…
A personal anti-war song...or something like that !-)

Thanks, bro.
Everything I do is recorded with a Boss Micro BR, either plugged in to the guitar jack or using the built in mic for acoustic/vox. Sometimes I'll upload the tracks to audacity for further mixing, but not very often.
This is a 3/16 Bembe on tuned congas, played with mallets. I've arranged it (at the very kind suggestion of Vaisvil & ReefWalker) in a verse/chorus/bridge/capo fashion to get away from a straight pattern - I think this sort of arrangement…
Comments on launched's stuff
Nice one mate dig it. Thanks for your recent comments mate. Great vocals well mixed. Top track.
I know this tune....I want the vodka!!! Great catchy song!!! Gnasty
Hey Launched, Love this tune man!! Great Groove!! Great Production!! Gnasty
Pure magic. Even in the face of adversity - the show must go on. Well done, nice track.
No objection to the BGE sequel. Nothing but encouragement from my end. Let me know if you need any help with anything.
Where does Baby Green Ernie fit in with all this?
I like your voice .
I like it hot.
Oh, shame about your RPM. This is a great song, produced under extreme conditions, I curtsy to you sir.
I guess I wasn't the only one who suffered a blackout during RPM. Thank the makers for acoustic instruments. Great job, in the dark.
some freakin' freakout shit going on!
Great tune...one of my favorites of yours. Has the Money Mark sound!
exotic and infectious...excellent collab!
Great spook factor...Count Floyd says: ahoooooooooooo!
this came out real nice...dark and brooding.
Fly on Baby Green Ernie, Fly on.

Mighty fine! Only a listener will I ever be, and that is a great thing.
I love what you've done here! Swanky groove!
Love it!
I'm flying!!!! Diggin' this groove! As would Greg Brady :)
Yeah, man! Great tune you put together here. It does have it all. I thought you had a tight interaction with analog and digital here. Right on!!
Badass! I don't know how else to explain this - Love it!
The whistle and the strump were tight - Very nice!
Love it!
Not sure how I missed this one. The key word here is beautiful - I agree. Wonderful piece - Straight to the PiePod
I just finished watching War of the Worlds, and now I'm scared shitless after listening to this! "Killer" stuff...
That, my friend, was freakin' awesome! You are one talented sumgum!!!
Ha, way to "get back into it" after your troubles! Awesome and hilarious at the sanme time!
Sweeeeeeet!!!! Wonderful playing, loved it!
This rules! Love the bass and that Beck/Zappa hybrid sounding guitar. Solid!!!
Devine and powerful!
Damn, I'm addicted now. This is killer shit!
This is awesome - I don't know if you remember that old Amiga game Captain Blood, but this reminds me of that a lot!
Solid!!

Yeah, this is pure gravy, bro! Spicy and lively. That cowbell is awesome and mixed perfectly!
