This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…

This just pulled me right in! You have some GREAT tone on that guitar, and your fingers . . . How do you get them to move so fast?
This was a treat to listen to.
Found this old track while backing up my hard drive. It is an alternate tracked played at a slower tempo. I added a quick drum track and ruff remix this morning.
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Part of a collaborative effort done here. My friend sent me these guitar parts which I arranged, twisted and morphed to create this. I added the percussion and other non musical elements thanks to my kids playing while I was experimenting with…
No Jake today so i had a little while to play while Seb sleeps ain't pre-schools great......so i took a look at Regs life and he’s none too happy ..........Reg has had enough of her threats to leave its time to start the new year a fresh so he…
this is my first piece I've ever created, it is intentionally off beet in one part, it is designed to make your brain put it in the right beet pattern. I hope you enjoy. Oh one tip, be relaxed when listening to this song, you can get some cool…
Reg has started to look to the future and it seems a little brighter when he thinks of the summer to come...Maybe 2013 wont be too bad after all......He got the £16 pound special out for this one with a little clean Bizarro filter…
I rarely play music with other people, firstly because I lack the technical skill to follow another's lead. I can do little more than improvise. Secondly, the sort of music I aspire to make is rarely the music other folks would be interested in…

Alive
For the first time I see
past the space behind my eyes
At once, Arise
Before
All was in sight
As light took up less space in our minds
For now, Again
Buried…
I have found some old Tapes of Reg's Great Grandfather old Blind Melon Reg who emigrated back to Sheffield from the states in the early 40's to fight for king and country these are the lost tapes of him playing live at the cellar from way back…
Red string of fate... Go look it up!
ONE RED STRING
One red string
Forever tied
Through everything
I’ve ever tried
You can always bring be back to life
Just by coming ‘round
There’s something magic in your eyes
Or maybe something…
January challenge songwriting fun...
WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
this is my take on Joe Bonamassa's version of Blind Faith's "Had To Cry today"
a much shorter version...just wanted to record that cool lick and am trying to work on my vocals ... oh well ..what a time to try to learn to sing at my age...63 next…
