Very cool man! Great Fahey-inspired exploration...

Sounds like a bariton tuned guitar to me, very pleasant work indeed. BRAVO

@zee-khattak: Thanks a lot Zee, I shouldn't complain about being compared to the great Mr Graham but I think of him more as a melodic player...any recommendations for his darker stuff?

love me some bukowski, great playing on this

warm and bright a beautiful piece well played

interesting...very focussed...the dissonance becoming melodic

fantastic! love this dissonant-traditional-avantgarde mixture

your page set this song up good.  your songs for the most part were light and playful, and then this from the title to the chills in the music.  powerful stuff.

so that’s what you think of Dol Lull Bee hey? no wonder he didn’t want to see you. well up on the first floor I’m still hitting the hay. long time without a sound, long time without a name. flaming up the place is almost never the answer. pipe down Henry I think you’ve had enough. Jay Eff wept on, I felt sorry but haven’t ceased. when was the last time you destroyed a perfectly good day.

Came across the line for the title whilst reading Charles Bukowski’s “Note of a Dirty Old Man” and used it as inspiration for an improvised piece. Tuned my guitar to C# G C# F# G# C# and played whatever came out for 12ish minutes then from combining 2 sections got my 2ish minutes. Sketch 1 as it’s pretty rough and I’m thinking of doing a series. 

It’s not meant to be pretty, you know!

Thank you for listening.

“A fox came as a rabbit, then a rabbit came as a fox” and with these words short-sighted Jay Eff became invisible. It was not out of the blue he had been studying the work of early ones who left marks in the air. And now here comes someone who doesn't know the marks of all the early ones but with a wooden box in hand he has come to make marks in the air. Wish him luck good people of the world, we all need a little luck sometimes.
