Keith and Co
Si Bheag's Si Mhor Si Bheag's Si Mhor
The Lea Rigg The Lea Rigg
Trad Scottish tune. Bob on whistle, plus my guitar with a small bit of overdubbed guitar later on.
Ysski Russu Ysski Russu
A trad Scandinavian tune, I think. Tanya on fiddle, plus multi-tracked me on various guitars, bass etc.
Lover's Waltz Lover's Waltz
Jay Ungar's beautiful tune with my own arrangement for two fiddles and guitar. I couldn't get the hang of the version on Transatlantic Sessions which is better. However - Fiddles by Tanya, guitars and mandolin by Keith
Dodington Hall Dodington Hall
One of my first solo multitrack via PC efforts from some years ago now. Mandoliny, guitary, percussy tune celebrating a lovely building where I've played with Hopping Mad band.
Bracken for my bed Bracken for my bed
Long and lazy summer days in the Quantock Hills, Somerset, where I live.
How much you mean to me How much you mean to me
A simple love song for anyone who has ears to hear. Two guitars and voice from me - thanks for playing the fiddle part Kathy.
The Lights of Beauly The Lights of Beauly
Fiddle/guitar version of a tune you can also find on my solo guitar page. Fiddle by Tanya.
The Violin The Violin
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 Ariel
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!
La Polverita Fiera / O Cabalo Azul La Polverita Fiera / O Cabalo Azul
Trad. tunes from Spain/ Portugal. A live recording with Tanya Phipps, Anna Hammond (fiddles), Caroline Hawkes (recorder), Bob Debarr (whistle), Ian Elenor (double bass), Louise Palmer (bodhran), and myself (guitar) - collectively known as Hopping Mad
Elenor's Erin Elenor's Erin
Another live recording from Hopping Mad. This one I wrote and named for our bass player Ian Elenor after he'd been on holiday in Ireland.
The Fig Tree The Fig Tree
Just me on this one again, multitracks courtesy of Cakewalk.
