Amazing!!!!!
I think Drumming is one of the hardest things to do Musically!
You are freaking Awesome!!!!
Faved Bro!
Did I say Awesome!!!!?!?!
AWESOME!!
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…
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…
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
I'm still getting around to re-upping everything I took down last October.... this is one of them, and if I recall correctly, this is the track that was the impetus for Paul & I to start collaborating. (Something I've been missing a lot…
I had some lyrics describing a late nite cake baking experience kicking around. If I have a lot on my mind, dirtying every dish in the house seems like the right thing to do.
I stole some cool percussion from Norm and went to work. I also…
@Reefwalker: Well well well, a muffin man, eh? A pretty bold statement from a guy that I have seen wolf down a great deal of cake. But, in any case, finally I can answer in the affirmative: Yes, I know the muffin man. Muffin man. Muffin man. (I won't finish the rest as I know you are kind of protective about publishing your address).

"And I feel the pull of the tide... I bet the moon feels it too"; "I didn't have any eggs or any other crap you are supposed to mix with it"; "Mix it in a bowl with love & hate"... where do you get this stuff?? I'm a sucker for it. I hate chocolate cake. I mean, I love it.
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…
They recon if you go down any mine in the world you'll find a Cornishman there working.
Colin did the vocals and twelve string
Matthew did Balron, whistle, backing vocals ect.
I did the acoustic and backing vocals.
Just another time traveling love song from your ole Uncle Paul.
Mostly MIDI synths and some analog bass and screaming Ibanez.
Drum loops too. I was going to drum it, but these two loops really kinda drive it along.
Enjoy.....

After writing this song about our newly adopted dog, I asked Kavin if he like to play some slide guitar, knowing that he would come up with something terrific... I just had no idea how terrific.

I couldn't get anything right today so I just mashed through a guitar track and overlayed vocals. But now I kind of like the song so it will have to be redone.
So sit back and relax, don't shower or shave and have a beer!

"The sun comes down again
With overbearing certainty"
Now man, **sound of beer can being opened** that's poetry. Pure poetry.

Abakua refers to a secret, Afro-Cuban, male society of percussionists - as I understand it, one had to be initiated into this society before they would be taught how to play percussion in their style. One of their hallmarks is to impose what I…
This is a new song that started as a guitar pick, then got some words. I finally recorded this. It has 3 parts. Nylon guitar, Electric and voice. This is part of the "human racing" series I am working on.
Matter is surprising
Not what…
I had a bit of a dry spell with writing new music but today I have decided to break it.
This is loosely based on another song of mine, titled Swell.
I hope you enjoy this.

Comments made by Norm
Breath-taking!
Really, really fun.
That must have been one hella lathe. Awesome performance.
Ooh, the contrast between a lullaby & a wake-up call is brilliant.

Sweet bassey goodness!

Way to push the envelope, Chris! Very nice work.
Don't do another thing to this. It's perfect. What a song!
Yes, most excellent!
One of your best vocals yet! And a real high-lonesome sound to your guitar work. Well done!
How can I not fave a song about pick-up trucks, kids climbing on the dog, and leaving Memphis. And with slide guitar to boot.

Brian, I think this is perhaps your loveliest post so far. Nice work, Samadad!
Solid!
Great voice!
@MTC: Please! Feel free to add something to my coffee. That's why I post this stuff.
The opening riff is most awesome!
Good to see that you are back in the saddle! This is very nice. Very nice.
