Welcome to my audio living room!


These are simply informal recordings of live music I have made in my living room.
I will be adding more from time to time.
All of this is just a reminder of how easy it is to make your own music, anywhere, anytime, for free.
Gene Halton


The first one is a blues improvisation with my friend Jeff Craft on guitar and me on harmonica.

We call ourselves The Pole Barn Brothers:

Pole Barn Blues

And here is a solo harmonica improvisation I call:

Blues for West Africa

And here's that blues improvisation for you prisoners of canned music I mention in
Chapter 10: The Art and Craft of Home.
Canned Prisoner Blues
And a little mandolin improvisation
Appalachan Mandolin

A little improvisation on a simple Kenyan Thumb Piano (or Kalimba)
(which I don't know how to play)
