Check out my album: 'Dirk Sings Dylan' here on Soundcloud!
https://soundcloud.com/dirkdarmstaedter/subterranean-homesick-blues-bob-dylan

Recorded at home on a scorching hot, humid sunday in July 2014.
I've always wanted to try this great song out and see how it fits.
I have a show coming up this month that features some Bob Dylan songs so now was a good time to have a go at it.
So, while I was rehearsing why not record it as well? 
So, here it is. 
Enjoy. D


Desolation Row (Bob Dylan)

Something I have been working out for a G&B mix. There's some things I forgot to touch on this, but I was trying to break off arrangement to get deeper into playing the song.  It's pretty rough, but I think it will turn out alright, as most things do in life. Sally forth folks.

PS: Here is the G&B version! https://soundcloud.com/greenwood-burns/was-a-place-i-know

Soldier's Joy

Hey folks, this Father's Day I thought I'd honor the ol' man by releasing a single that we cut back in January. Dad and I were joined by our pal Peter "Madcat" Ruth on this rendition of the old American folk song "I'm Troubled" Happy Fathers Day!!
