Darkest Evening

Ebullience - the quality of lively or enthusiastic expression of thoughts or feelings

Ebullience

The key of G Major is a wonderland of delights and possibilities.  Here I return to that land once again with a Stratocaster and a Jazzmaster.

Penn Station

Well I know this is a cover and not my usual style but lockdown makes you do weird things. Normal service will be resumed. When? Dunno, but I suspect BoJo knows.  Big greetings and musical hugs to you from a slightly 'stir crazy' burn.it.smith (a.k.a. Antony x)

Oh Susanna (Stephen Foster)

Another frolic in the playground of G Major, this time with a Les Paul, a Telecaster, a Gretsch resonator and a Martin dreadnought

On The Midway

A layering of nylon string and bronze string acoustic guitars, plus a touch of ebow played on a Telecaster

Adirondack

One Telecaster and one Stratocaster having fun in the funkhouse

Skullduggery

Electric and acoustic guitar tones mixing it up on this sampler of mellow jazz sounds

Easy Street

Arpeggio composition in D; played here on a Jazzmaster and a Stratocaster, joined on the second pass by a dreadnought and nylon strings

Snowfall

I went camping for a few days to hang out with the trees, but I have returned with a new tune.

I've been trying to improve my guitar skills as i feel ive been plateaued for a while now, and so i have been learning new songs including a lot of Hendrix which gave me the idea to incorporate bass notes with my thumb into the riff (Little Wing etc). 

Lots of people wander this earth struggling with depression, sadness and a lack of purpose in their life. This song is a story about nature encouraging the people of earth to live out their dreams and reassuring them that there is no reason to frown and no reason not to shoot for their goals right now.
Because after all, the only real time is now.

Tears fall from the sky
All the people they run and hide
All the people they run inside
They should smile, but they cry

Tears fall from the clouds
All the people they run around
All the people they fall and drown
They should smile, but they frown

Only if they knew just above the clouds
There were bright blue skies shinin all around
Calling to the people theyre smiling down
Callin out theres no need to frown

The birds they sing to the people too
Hey you fools its time to do
All the things you ever dreamed of
Write that book that you always speak of

I see
Angels
Weeping
All around me

If only 
They knew
How much
They can do

Angels

This is the title track from my recent Bandcamp album to benefit the Myrna Brind Center at Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals. They continue to do amazing work, and they have my complete support.

Appreciation

I enjoy composing, arranging and recording music on an ever-expanding array of guitars, especially Fender electrics and Martin acoustics.  My musical journey began more than half a century ago, and every day brings new opportunities for continued growth as a musician.  My current leading influences include Jim Campilongo, Scotty Anderson and Guthrie Trapp.  I love Beethoven, Keith Richards, Henry Mancini, Aretha Franklin and a thousand others whose music has brought me joy, whether for many decades or for a few minutes.  I strive to learn something from every piece of music that I hear, and to make music that others will enjoy hearing.

I'm an amateur DIYer in terms of recording, doing everything in my music space at home and learning as I go.  I enjoy experimenting with a variety of microphones and mic placements, recording into a Zoom R16 and using Audacity as my DAW.  I use an array of Fender tube amps, all blackface/silverface reissues, and a modest pedal board.  I record acoustic instruments either with condenser microphones directly on the instruments or else amped through a Fishman Loudbox Mini.
