Ilmenau Over All the Treetops is an adaptation of Ives’s setting of Goethe’s poem dated 1902. The accompaniment is a combination of bassoon, english theorbo and psaltery. This is a fortuitous tape recording from Reg's obscure neo-classical period…

Nice tease with the conversations...i feel like a secret agent in the van waiting for that illicit speech...while tripping on the laced coffee i bought at Costa's...the waves of sound are getting stronger.....it's getting closer...i know it is.... 13.50 and counting...over halfway and the anticipation
grows....where is she? ....that voice we love to hear...... 16.20 and the heart beat increases.......the breathing is labored the anticipation intense.... the waiting ....the waiting....it's near 18.11 ...a numbness...the wait carry's on..... now i know what you've done....you Bugger!!
The audio in the video video is a selected annotated collection of Electric Aeolian Harp recordings taken over a consecutive 36 hour period. During that time the environment changed (wind, rain, sleet, snow) and I changed the tuning of the harp…
Normal IL - tantalizing close to Urbana where musicians are turned to the darkside of microtonality. Come, let me show you the power of a 19 note per octave guitar! Seriously - if you are interested at all you may want to make the drive.
Along with her magnificent harmonizing vocal tracks, Inge sent me one track which was crashed by her 2-year old son Willem. He pretty much takes over the whole operation at about 3:00.
In the background you can hear the original rough vocals…
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.
Recorded it Last night after a Gig....
For the Folk Fest...

Norm set me these drums for Dancing on my own a while back but Reg went and dumped the file so we couldn't use them. So i'm using them now, while Reg gets Gone.........Thanks Norm
Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
Reg has this recurring dream of his fantasy women but she is always out of reach...........Thanks to Tess for letting me play with her tune.

ohhh I didn't see you had uploaded this! To answer your question - it was a Yamaha - can't remember the model - it had 3 pedals - I agree about the low end but the high end was really weak in my opinion.
Added a little more to this nice little change of strumming patterns played as an excuse to write a little love song.
I FOUND LOVE
You know I love you more than I
Ever thought one simple man could
You know I need you more than I
Ever…

beautiful piece!
nice jazzy number!
I love Inge's voice! - so rich. BTW - what guitar do you play - it sounds quite nice. A very good tune you both put together here.

this is a great combination!!

I heard this as I let the IF playlist roll doing other things - this is really great! I love the very classic slide sound you have here and the piece is very bluesy cool.
