A rough instrumental sketch from last fall. I really like this riff and I will use it in something one of these days. I will be posting more instrumentals, past and present, so stay tuned.

Acoustic Idea

An instrumental that was intended as a quiet meditaion track. Enjoy :-)

Arise

This improv was recorded at our old condo in Dracut in 2004. It's part of a suite of improvs that I recorded shortly after my parents passed away. I have always loved how this came out and use the riff frequently. I think the rhythm is very "dreamy" 50'6/60's style. It's my '88 Strat Plus through a DigiTech RP50 Modeling Pedal, into an old tape deck input, into an old PC. This is one of my all time favorites of my recordings. I hope you enjoy it.

Standing on the Shore

A fun little demo of a jazz/rock riff I came up with around 2002 or 2003 based on major and minor 7th chords. I toyed around with lyrics a bit on this one until I decided it could stand on its own. Chords are on my '88 Strat Plus and the solo vamp is on my Silvertone semi-hollow electric (pictured). Recorded in Dracut at our old condo.

The Farmer's Wife

Fun little song that had several incarnations prior to this one. Recorded in 2003. Guitar is an Applause acoustic that I sold recently.

Fresh Fruit

This one could've been an instrumental track for a 70's cop show ;-)

Warning, it's VERY quiet, so you'll have to turn it up.

That's my Washburn Bass and my Silvertone Semi-Hollow Body, recorded in 2002 or 2003.

What The??

Recorded with Penniweather Wholesome (Myself on guitar and Dave Putney on piano) in 2002. A combination of 2 different riffs. The first (the 2nd riff) was "Duet Tuet," written in 1998. The rest was composed in 1999 during one of the first Penniweather Wholesome jams by myself and Dave Putney after I broke my high "e" string (hence, "Snap").

Autumn

I wanted to write a set of lyrics with no meaning. Just random words that popped into my head. Here is the result. Written and recorded in 2002.
