Sound Clip: Front Yard by Jimmy Ghaphery

This is from the net release, Path. Jim Ghaphery writes, “The path in the woods behind my house is not terribly efficient in terms of mileage from point A to B, winding around trees, hugging a creek, branches to overlooks. My fifth solo release at best shares some of these characteristics. While still focused on solo acoustic improvisation (sax and flute), other sounds have found their way into to some of these tracks. These include ambient nature, distant mike placement, a percussionist (Will Bryce), multi-tracking and manipulation via Audacity. Enough with the process, paths are meant to be walked not mapped. This particular track has me on alto sax walking from my front yard around the house and back again. Nice windy night blowing the wind chimes in the distance.”
