Here's a version of the Ronnie Bowman / Don Rigsby song from a CD (with some tweaking by me) by then -12 year old Molly Adkins (the daughter of hot flatpicker Dale Adkins who produced the session). Jeff Smith plays mandolin, Suzanne Pearce plays bass, Kristen Grainger and Molly Adkins supply the vocals, and I play banjo.

another multi-tracked tune from an unfinished solo Christmas project (I need to do another 2 or 3 tunes to finish it and I got lazy).

Here is a soundclip of me on an RK-Elite 75 (listed for sale in the classifieds) that I recorded to an Aiwa stereo one point mic into Audacity. No EQ has been added.

This tune has been sitting in my computer as part of an unfinished Christmas CD. Since I am so good at procrastinating when it comes to finishing some projects, I figured I would just put the tune out for the public, since who knows when the CD will actually be finished. I multi-tracked all the instruments, in case you were wondering who to blame for what you are listening to.

Another track from my Used TV Breakdown CD. I played all the parts on this cut, as on the other cuts, except where there was a wind instrument played (oboe, pennywhistle, recorder), in which case, those instruments were played by Miriam Rosenblum.

I wrote and recorded this tune a couple of years ago and multi-tracked the other instruments. I think I might have been playing my RK-R85 rather than my Prucha to see how it sounded (maybe a little brighter than my Prucha).
