THE AARVARKS DELIGHT THE AARVARKS DELIGHT
This is an acoustic track with Ralf Towner influences. There's a lot of acoustics in there Nylon, Steel, and 12 string. Solo section travels over 5 different keys.
Eaten by Snakes Eaten by Snakes
An experiment in some more "outside" concepts. Holdsworth, Scofield. Bruford influences. This needs some Sax melodies or solos in the 7/8 pad section. Now that I've bought new recording gear I'll be finishing this off as I originally intended.
REVERIE REVERIE
A very dreamy solo guitar composition. Not my normal style of writing; but you gotta try new things every now and then, you know?
Desert March Desert March
I had a very vague image of some kind of relentless desert journey; hence the driving log drum and bass parts. The core idea of this composition goes back a long way and it's mutated many times.
Flying Glass Flying Glass
Jazz Fusion tune This is a shortened version.I need to add a Sax solo and redo the "scratch" guitar solo which was recorded to give the drummer something to work to.
Stevie Stevie
A strange mixture of Jan Akkerman, Satriani, and SRV. You could describe it as a blues/pop instrumental
LIGHT WIND LIGHT WIND
A Midi version of a prog rock style tune I wrote 25 years ago. If I can regain the interest I'll add guitar parts to it to make it a little less plastic.
RTFM RTFM
This is a solo piano ditty. Reminds me of Chick Coreas Return To Forever period; another golden opportunity for a title pun.
Messiaen Around Messiaen Around
This is an attempt at 12 tone serialism for flute, marimba, and Piano. Messiaen wasn't a serialist, he had his own system, but I didn't want facts getting in the way of a great musical pun.
The Visitor The Visitor
A Sonic Soundscape. An electronic collage. No guitar on this one folks; move on, nothing to see here!

Another jam to test the new VST modeler software (S-Gear) from Scuffham Amps. This was the Smooth Lead preset. The reverb, delay and compression are all waves plugins in VST. The guitar was an old Ibanez artist with gibson Classic 57 pups.
FORD/CARLTON style JAM FORD/CARLTON style JAM
Just a jam to test the new VST modeler software (S-Gear) from Scuffham Amps. This was the Liontone preset. The reverb, delay and compression are all waves plugins in VST. The guitar was an old Ibanez artist with gibson Classic 57 pups

A solo with lots of keychanges. Recorded live at a gig somewhere, lousy recording but I'm pleased with the solo.
