Water Under The Keel Water Under The Keel
Celtic rock instrumental. A tallship cuts through the waves and fires a few broadsides! Electric fiddles & guitars, blazing bodhrans... you'll like. This version is 128kbps; version at www.lulu.com/paulalynch is much better 320kbps.
The Irish Washerwoman The Irish Washerwoman
My not-so-traditional version of the Irish traditional. You know it - play it! I had way too much fun with the bass... You may buy all downloads at http://www.lulu.com/paulalynch -- check out the freebies too!
The Stolen Child The Stolen Child
Original instrumental inspired by the Yeats poem of the same name. Haunting tune on Celtic harp, oboe, bassoon, strings. No relation to the Loreena McKennitt song. Credit to Steph Polek, my sister, who wrote the tune.
The Boatman (Fhir A Bhata) The Boatman (Fhir A Bhata)
Scottish traditional about a woman's painful wait for her lover to return from sea. Instrumental.
Blackjack Davy Blackjack Davy
A rather rocked-out version (instrumental) that my sister Steph first came up with. Used to love playing the guitar part behind this -- it's in there if you listen carefully.
Jig of Slurs Jig of Slurs
Not the best recording. I'll redo it at some point. And the name is wrong, but it's what I've come to refer to it as, so blah.
Harp Attack! Harp Attack!
A quiet canon on classical instruments, including Celtic harp. Short and sweet instrumental.
Pachelbel's Canon in Hell Pachelbel's Canon in Hell
Pachelbel's Canon on electric guitars. Oh the humanity.
Bach Double Guitar Concerto Bach Double Guitar Concerto
Eek! Bach's Double Violin Concerto on ELECTRIC GUITARS!
Hallelujah Chorus (Cheese Mix) Hallelujah Chorus (Cheese Mix)
The Hallelujah Chorus with a beat.
Violince! Violince!
Witness the destruction of a violin! Had to replace the bow when I was done. Heh. Recording is somewhat lacking, sorry. Will redo this one too at some point.
Baroke! Baroke!
If it ain't baroke... blah. A nice movement-based piece on strings, harp, harpsichord, classical guitar, other stuff. Last movement on guitar is by far my favorite.
The Dream The Dream
Work in progress. Original composition by my sister, very beautiful. See 'full song info' for a link to the dilapidated original recording in its entirety.
Mecca Mecca
An original piece based around Middle Eastern music. Completely accessible to Westerners.
I Was Happy-Assed I Was Happy-Assed
Well, I was. This song is just so happy-assed! Instrumental.
Chicken Train Chicken Train
The sinister tale of a mysterious "Chicken Train" that haunts the backwoods of Tennessee. A rare glimpse of my wretched vocals. There's a story behind this one.
The Auctioneer The Auctioneer
The story of how I went broke, done country ballad style. Been on a country jag lately. I affected my best Texan accent for this one.
Osama Bites (O Holy Night) Osama Bites (O Holy Night)
Osama bin Laden gets nuked. The Lorin Swelk Orchestra provides the music and lead vocals; I provided the occasionally mildly profane lyrics and the "virgins".
