I've been giving my Telecaster a fair workout lately, trying to get my head around some more complicated things than playing chords (which was quite complicated enough for a while there!). I want to learn how to play better, and a style I like…

This is an oldie that needs something. A personal touch but I haven't quite figured out what.

Shreya's composition, a tale of love and death that is also perhaps a sly reference to the most famous proponent of the ontological argument for you-know-who. This is the dreamy guitar version, and there is also a classical-sounding piano version…

I wanna live in a house! Nothin' special...

Originally recorded by blues singer Walter Coleman in the 1930s. This is not me singing, it's a different vocalist

Based on the first lines of a Hindu spiritual song I've had stuck in my head for years, this song was included on the RPM 08 world music category compilation. World music--crazy! Wouldn't have expected that, but I'm honored that it was nominated…

Standing in the shower last summer one weekend when my family was out of town, missing them. It made me think about how empty life is without the ones I love most. Also worked in some imagery I've been toying with for a number of years--the river…

This is the beginning of a song that will be about the monkeys named Albert that all died during U.S. rocket missions.

This is another song snippet/idea that sort of sounds like it could be used as a theme song to something.

The drums are kind of neurotic and I'm not really happy with the violin sound but it's a start.

Great little snippet/idea will a killer tuba as the bass instrument.

its basically like putting cake in the toaster

i want to touch your music, probably on a saturday night, so you know, if you're free...

i mean i really want to just be with you alone forever, but baby, i got more lovin' to give.

More playing with BigSeq Thanks sandbags for the initial idea that started the thing; which was to run piano loops through BigSeq. Then slowing the tempo down to 26 I started adding some other textural things and ended up with this. Then some…

This contains a sample of a Studs Terkel story. My tribute to the great American voice.

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.

red cowboy and hot burrito were recordings done for a friend of mine who wanted to check out his new (old) drum machine. Both drum parts are constructed from prerecorded beats (from presets or previous owner, I don't know) and have 4-5 bass tracks…

I thought the hand claps were a bit weird but I wasn't running this dog and pony show. See more notes under "red cowboy" and "I left my toothbrush in St. Louis".

Started playing with a new toy. A plugin called BigSeq from AudioDamage and this came out. This is a rough mix that I'm not at all sure about. Suggestions welcome. I'll post an update when I've had some sleep.
