This is a Gibson Epiphone Roadie 1/2 scale guitar I picked up used at Guitar Center for $30. It was on the block because no one set it up. The intonation was horrific. And to top it off the bridge is ever so slightly too close to the nut. But…

Re-recording of an old song of mine, with new lyrics. The guitar has a Korg Monotron in the effects chain.

This one was saved from an old cassette heading towards the bin....some might say it should have carried on ..............it is an early recording of Thetworegs ad-libing unplugged from an hotel room in Germany on a wet Sunday in 1994......Elvis…

I generally take my Zoom H2 portable digital recorder with me on my trips to music stores to record myself playing equipment I can’t afford to buy. This is one of today’s recordings. June 24th 2011

They had a piano fight down the cellar last night Reg doesn't understand whats happening with all this violence i mean he's just a hippie at heart.....At least no-one got hurt......They just had fun this time!

This is the original recording of this song from their 1976 Feathers In The Wind LP. CHILDREN OF THE NIGHT Key G (open G tuning GGDGBD) They’re flying in from miles around - C They circle and they settle down – Bm They sit and feel the…

under the influence of fine cheese and alkyhol oldrottenhead didn't care anymore

Just plain crazy ass guitar playing ... what can I say!

This is finger picked (quasi – classical guitar) improvisation with my wife’s Seagull acoustic guitar with Dean Markley soundhole pick up and AKG microphone with mastering.

This was the first song we ever wrote. This is the second version of this song. Blah, blah, blah.

yeah it's hot

Here's a song for that horribly obnoxious person who's unfortunately in your life or workplace!!!

It's the little things about you that I'll always remember--and love!!!

Good friends, family, my adorable pet--you all bring a smile to my face!!!

A jive-era feel, with lyrics about working hard to get what you want!

Let me know what you think

The millionaires are doing just fine, thanks---but the rest of us are barely getting by!!!!

Apologies to John Strings (scored) Session Drummer 3 (no loops, scored) 5 string bass fretless guitar * 2 electric piano Vocals * 2

Here's a great way to keep some peace at home!!!

A couple looks back nostalgically on the magical moment when they first met.

5 string bass guitar solo. Here is me and my 5 string bass, which I really, really like playing despite the pain in my pinky to make those stretches I hear in my mind. The name seems stupid - but way better than STE-018cn. If you can add to…

He overheard a couple breaking up--and it sounded a bit close to home for him...

I tried to catch some of the defiance, optimism and spirit of being young as told through the voice of someone who no longer is!!!

Sometimes it's hard to imagine how to make it through a cold and lonely night.

And then came a lion... Conga / Harmonica (key of D) improvisation. 4/4 90bpm

This is the most autobiographical song I've ever written. The idea of the song: The past was a lot of fun but my life today is even better.

Another 12 string improv. Capo 3rd fret, capo 5th fret except for top string and notched out for the b strings to attain an open C tuning, of sorts.

Often I am asked about the difference between "normal" 12 equal tuning and microtonal tuning. Thanks to a retuning by Gene Ward Smith to meantone tuning (I don't know which) you can compare this famous piece of music in the familiar 12 equal…
