.......if there not the one,should you keep looking, if so for how long...........well Reg threw Henwrench's music into the cellar and what bounced out was a song he wasn't suspecting....
Love me tender
I've been alone now seems to long…
Cover of the Joy Division classic, with a little drum'n'bass thrown into the mix
This version from September 2010
The youtube version is my original recording going back to 1997.
About the song
It's like a picture of my brain. Psychadelic number using the Korg Monotron. I strummed the guitar riff at 21:00 and within 40 minutes had all the tracks recorded onto the Zoom. All except the two Monotron tracks which were added…
not really a ghost in my house it just badly needs rewiring.
There’s a ghost in my house
That we can’t see
Moving things around
When we’re not here
Playing little tricks
On my memory
Playing little games
With my mind
There…
Louis was back in the cellar last night and he was telling Reg how Blue he was and they got to jamming...............This morning i arrived at the cellar to find Bon was passed out in the corner....Dave was right with his guess....He could never…
Reg was just tootling about with the piano and he got possessed by someone and just couldn't stop. He's thinking it must have been the Devil himself because he just couldn't stop......or maybe it was the Moonshine........
The old tin geetar...
Did this one sometime in 2009 on a Boss MBR. I'd recently joined what became Songcrafters.org and PJ (Wiley) posted a bass/drum track for us ubiquitous blues guitarists to solo over.
I decided to go a different route…
Cover of the theme from the popular BBC television series. Recorded on Boss BR-864 December 18, 2008. All instruments and drum programming by 64Guitars.

This is a song I made at my cabin last fall ... didn't have anything new to say so the lyrics are a bit out there ... anyway ... this is "Nothing new" ... all recorded on my Boss BR800
This is a song i always wanted to have a go at and it wasn't until Johnny let me have a go on his representation of it i got my chance. Thanks Johnny for letting me have a go, may you rest in peace............
Having another listen over here - loving that bass, man! The percussion is also interesting, and you know how I feel about the melodica. This is a well put-together combination of styles - love it!
This song is evolving it was People they dont try at all now its People just think me the fool and i have to work on that Banjo but at least its a bit cleaner now but a work in progress...As all of mine are.

Cool bit of psychedelia! really colourful production. Awesome arrangement.
Festive goodie!
Brilliant tribute - now I want mulled wine!
This is amazing! How you recreated this and put it all together is mindblowingly good!!!

Nice work.
great sound here. I need to find a good mellotron module for my stuff.
Nice to hear you on here. deadly good cover. What a vocal..Very old school keys sound here, authentic sounding.
I'm going to have to go back and listen to some more beatles... this all rocks :)

My new favorite collab - love this song!
Great cover, Nick. The attention to detail spent shows how much you value it.
Love this -that's some fine Monotron madness, and a catchy alienated song!
So great - didn't want it to end! I did want to get you a fly swatter, though... ;)
Very smooth arrangement; one of my favorite Orbison tunes. Hey, that's our Jimbo on vox, isn't it?
I love this song! The guitar reminds me of Felt at their best, and those double-track vocals are like honey. I like the drums!!
And what a beauty it is - bouncing bass and Jim on the vox, and a sparkly production to boot!
Hey, this is a real treat - melodica and glockenspiel added to the voice & uke! Gives it more of an epic flavor...
Great idea here - love the music and vocals. Sounds like it may have been a throat-shredder - hope you kept a glass of water handy while singing!
That's some nice honky-tonk piano & cool vox, Reg!
Tasty blues, Andy!
Love this spacy rocker!
You're strumming one mean uke here, henwrench...intense!
Thanks Sandy & sister savage...I love the original song, and had a blast covering it!
Wow, big BIG guitar sound on this!
Lung stew! I love this one - that's some driving guitar, Geir!
Haven't heard take 1, but this one sounds great!
Infectious groove on this - loaded up with instrument goodies that draw you in. Slight alt. country feel, mehbbee? Love it, henwrench!

This is cool, Reg!
