This song was born on the 18th of Feb. 2011. It was the last piece I wrote/recorded for the challenge. It was a very sad day for me, almost as if all my usual winter sadness was concentrated and crammed into one day. The process of writing and…
A WildGeas and CaveStreet collaboration
some say once upon a time
there was a line
that was never meant to be crossed
if ever that occurred
you might have heard
an innocence would have to be lost
but having crossed that line
I can…
"I'll know it when I see it"
Is what she finally said
"If there was some other way
I'd do that instead"
And blindly without question
I followed down that trail
That led into the hidden night
Beyond the parted veil

This song…
My first rejected Ramen Music submission.
Too Much
I wrote you a letter but I never sent it
I was afraid you might never get it
or what if you did and I lived to regret it
and it was just too much for me to take
now its four in the morning…
A WildGeas and Cave Street collaboration
You see me and I see you
Is that what's real?
You say bad and I say good
Which one is real?
When you do the things you do
Then how do you feel?
There's a time
There's a season
For change…

The first WildGeas and Cave Street collaboration
There ain't nothin' I could buy
that can ever calm me down
So I leave my money at home
when I go into town
I put on my fightin' hat
an' I wear my dancin' shoes
An' if I miss my ride…
This is a rough mix of a track I did with the one & only Norm Harris. I've got some vocals in mind, but it may take some time to put it together, so meanwhile here's the instrumental version. Big thanks & major props to Norm…

This track has the best drum work I've heard from you Paul. Are you playing a midi kit or programming by hand? The fill at 1:11 is super tight. Okay, I'm inspired! Gonna go lock myself in the music room for the night....
Love the beginning of this... favorited just from the piano riff & then that muted horn sound comes in too! So tasty...
So is this gonna be an instrumental album? I might have to steal this track when we're done with November!
Seriously man, this one of my all-time favorite things I ever heard from you -- and that my friend is saying something!
Hey this is supposed to be a solo album project! No fair, you brought Noah and all those Guardians of the sky! You know I love this one! The ending reminds me of a Sphongle track. Have you ever heard those dudes?
Dudes! Do you know there is over 4 minutes and 20 seconds of silence at the end of this track? I sat through all of it thinking there was some sort of bonus cut coming or something... (but I'm a dork like that) Anyway, I understand not wanting to hassle with fixing clams and such, but you could at least lop off the last third of the track that contains no music?! :-) Oh, by the way, did I say KILLER TRACK! Love your tones, guys! Looking forward to hearing more. More notes, less silence! :-)
drowning in a sea of vaseline
alive or dead or somewhere in between
sit very still and read a magazine
wash and wash but never get it clean
it must be true I saw it on the screen
painting all the roses for the queen
don't eat that you don…
A story about waking up from a nightmare only to find you're in another nightmare. Told in a eerie, floaty downtempo breakbeat voice, shining a flashlight upward on my face for extra creepiness.
Recursive dreams are really bizarre.
This is…
A lil rocker influenced by some of my faves, Springsteen, Petty etc.. well i left my home and family
and made my way out west
i lost my job at the steel mill
im a hoping for the best
in this life
for my kids and wife
just outside of Davenport…
You have done your influences proud with this one! Great mix of all the instruments creates a nice wall of sound without sounding at all cluttered. Well done!
Well the new women in Regs life became the keeper and his wife and they lived happily ever after...well up to now anyway...Reg can never seem to keep the pessimistic thoughts totally at bay but he was trying...He felt reborn on the birth of his…
Well Reg has finally had some good luck he's stopped drinking or at least for a while and a beautiful girl has walked into his life ..is she the one?
Love is in the Air (Lyrics)
I couldn’t believe my luck as she walked in through the door
wandered…
Here's number 08 in the saga of Reg……………..Reg has been so down since he stopped drinking…….he feels so alone he's gone and done something stupid…..but luckily he was found by the postman unconscious on the steps leading to his bedsit….the postman…
Heres Track 5 for the RPM carry on with the Saga of Reg......Well after his night of falling of the wagon Reg has realized that he needs to get his head together and stop...but how....he needs help....desperately .......
What Have I Done Where…
another highly creative track from the prolific mind of the Reg(s)... I really like your use of percussion on these last couple of tracks. What are you using for these sounds, Trev?
Well Reg has fell off the wagon and wants to party on……theres no looking back……it's full on ….PARTY!!!
Party On (Lyrics)
Yeah i feel good i’m ready to get it on
i feel like i’ve been dead. i been gone so long
my mind is alive and im ready rock…
Reg is contemplating his future and how to change................So he got the acoustic out and perused the idea.....
The Hurricane (Lyrics)
I stand in the window looking back at me
trying to understand where i got it wrong
how my life could…

This is not a song one can approach lightly. You've done good, Keith!

Wow, I want to see the movie that goes with all these killer soundtrack pieces. Damn dude. Rock on!
Marching o'er EPIC vistas with this one... but I like how you make time for a side trip to funkytown too!

diggin the vibe
Great little tune!!
We gotta do another track one of these days, Jim.
Love it!

Hey Reg, major accomplishment this year with this epic concept album! Thanks for sharing your music.
hope at last
Like Andrew, I'm hoping this tale has a happy ending... not looking too good for old Reg right now...

The intertwining lead guitars on the breaks remind me of The Bevis Frond.
What a heavy opening track, Reg! Wow, I can tell this is gonna be an epic album. Great acoustic sounds, btw...
Really enjoyed your RPM disc -- hope to hear more of your music here on alonetone!
I dig this opening track... some of your sounds among the layers and some of your vocal phrasing reminds me of Spiritualized. (nice!)
