The Violin
Acoustic : Acoustic Folk
This song is a story I made up of how Tanya's violin, made in Ireland, found her. The second half, at any rate is actually true. Multitracked me - sadly Tanya isn't on this one, but you can hear her on Ysski Russu, and on the Hopping Mad tracks below

Ariel
Acoustic : Acoustic Folk
Solo guitar piece. First tune written on and inspired by my Fylde Ariel guitar, pictured here. Recorded onto Zoom H2 as a quick and dirty test - I suppose I should have closed the window, but then the birdsong does give a bit of extra atmosphere!
