Along the Nevski Along the Nevski
Taking a walk along the waterfront in the frosty spring sun.
Plucking Plucking
Barefingered blues picking. Great thanks go out to Mike Dowling for being a constant and obvious source of inspiration.
Alfred's Rag Alfred's Rag
Trying to keep my son awake on a bicycle ride home from the beach produced this.
Birch Tree Rag Birch Tree Rag
The result of several hours of staring out over a garden, guitar in hand.
Pause Pause
Something I once heard, but don't really remember. Delphi in E, no reverb (a sonic departure for me) just the pretty guitar sound.
The homage Reel The homage Reel
Every lick in this one was borrowed from the Steve James vocabulary of cool moves. Homage a Steve! And, as Billy gibbons says: Hi-Fi, Lo-Fi - No-Fi is all fine with me.
David's Jitterbug Swing David's Jitterbug Swing
My take on Booker White's hard driving anthem.
Firing Line Firing Line
Entirely spontaneous and unedited. The vocal delivery is anything if not honest, the guitar playing driven by my love for the tricone.
Me and the Devil Blues Me and the Devil Blues
Jackson Jackson
Ah, what the heck. This is what it sounds like when I just have fun. I don't mean any disrespect whatsoever, I love Tommy Johnson, just could't remember the words - any words.
Tear Tear
Inspired by Ray Charles, this is a paraphrase of some chord progressions that reminds me of the tune that starts with the words "It brings a tear into my eye.."
Talking ghost Talking ghost
Recorded on my IRiver when the idea hit me. Tricone, no picks, living with the past.
Clawing Clawing
Finn's 12-string again. Inspired by a certain Blind Willie McTell lick, and featuring a funny mistake!
Dark was the Night, Cold was the Ground Dark was the Night, Cold was the Ground
I could do a version of this every day for the rest of my life. On Finn's lovely Estralita 12 string.
Reaching for Rosie Reaching for Rosie
A good friend lent me his 12-string Estralita. This little theme seemed to fit with the sound of it.
See See Rider See See Rider
On the Delphi, no fingerpicks. All credit for the way this tune is played here goes to Mike Dowling, from whom I first heard it.

RJ: Can't do him justice, but you can give the songs your best shot, which is what I couldn't help to try here. Public domain, so hopefully no problem. I enjoyed to just holler!
