Elisha Expedition -- guitar and dulcimer original

on cd: http://michael.futreal.com/devil
Original piece featuring acoustic guitar, mountain dulcimer (my dulcicaster, sounding like a banjo), and electric guitar towards the end. The percussion is played a new instrument I obtained recently, the "multi-cajon." As usual of late, the bass sound is my electric run through the Electro-Harmonix HOG.

A bit on the longish side, maybe, betraying its its origin as an improvisational arrangement of the acoustic guitar part.

The title refers to Elisha Mitchell, a 19th century explorer and scientist from North Carolina. He established Mt. Mitchell as the tallest point east of the Mississippi, but met an ill-end for his trouble.

I love this song both because its a very cool temp mixed with well placed notes and because my name is Elisha. :-)
