It’s been a while since I heard this one brought a smile to my face this morning 2012 where do those years go I hope it’s a Time Machine he’s building in there
Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
Sometimes, as they say, Christmas do come early. I found Johnny Stone's "Christmas Rock In Oz" under the tree and couldn't wait until Yuletide to unwrap it. What a rockin' gift! I know a bit about…
A 3 track improvisation on 7 congas roughly tuned by ear to a chromatic scale.
LYRICS:
I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chatted all the way;
But left me none the wiser
For all she had to say.
I walked a mile with Sorrow,
And ne…

Sniffing around here a little bit, if I haven't said it before you guys are awesome! Really enjoyed this incredible tune. And three years ago. Inspires me to create... music... Betweeeeen the Saddle!!! Eh maybe next year, but that's tomorrow!!!
Ok, so I'm just a percussionist, and if your only tool is a hammer, the entire world looks like a nail. I get it. And I also get that our songs are our children, so we should be very careful about whom we let them play with.

Chris sent this track to me earlier today with the request that I add some percussion to it.
I had something different in mind.
After the first take I was afraid to return it to him, fearing that he would convert it to 23 edo or something…
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

Just another obscure saint. Not much known about him. Probably much more important and significant than any of us will ever realize.
Oh, yeah, and then there is Saint Simon. Same thing for him.
RIP Alex.

.......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…

Frank Sinatra
Jim Morrison
and perhaps Satan.
For Debbie, written (just) before I met her.
Reaching Out For You
I've been trying
Crying
Reaching out for you
It never is enough
I never do get through
My heart is true
My heart is meant for you
I've been crying

Vocals, Ibenez 5 string bass, Fender Mustang, GR-20 saxophone, SI rhodes, SI drums + drum 1 shots.
It is like you said
But different
Do we ever know?
If what we touch
Is always real
What do we feel?
I slide in time
And feel the gaps

Reg was at the weekly AA meeting at the old school and the group asked Reg if there was anything he would like to share....so Reg decided to share this ........
A spectacular vox Reg, although I confess I can no longer tell when you are copping an accent - I suspect you have many convincing voices.
Poor big-hearted monkey. You are going to miss him. But at least he's off of your back, if I'm hearing this parable correctly.
I've been all around
I've been up and down
I said I've traveled in all directions
Now
The world is new
If you've seen what I've seen
And you've been where I've been
I guess you know what I mean
Now
The world is new

A true story about some of my odd dreams
If the world's strongest man
Could hold the world in the palm of his hand
Would he crush us all into dust?
As a way to punish us
These are the kind of things
That seem to occupy me
If a giant…
Poor old Reg he cant figure it out!! ........ since he's been listening to his self help tapes to stop drinking he has never got any money and he just doesn't understand it, he keeps working coming home relaxing to the tape........... then when…
It's a curious thing. I guess that I like this song... I've started to listen to it several times and I have apparently "faved" it, but I can't remember listening to it for the life of me...
An improv in a found tuning. E and A strings tuned WAY down so they're slapping the neck:

Super full moon tonight! (View More for video)
Beautiful. And thanks for pointing out the Super Moon - I spent some time in awe of her Saturday night from the vantage point of a small tent, way out high in the Blue Ridge Mountains...at <30 degrees! Now I know why she appeared so huge!

standing in the cornfield you watch the corn grow and
the searing hot days pass on to night to day to night to day,
taller and taller, until you are one with all there is...
for you are one of them...
your roots dig soil,
your stalk stretches…
Well, who do think came down the cellar last night... Yep! you guested it, Charlie Sheen, he was none too happy. He should have been if the girls with him were anything to go by. He'd come to talk to Elvis about handling the Yes men and how he…
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
Reg was talking to Elvis about Frank and he told him something he didn't know.you can have it all then at the end not remember it which is what happened to Frank the grind ground him down a sad ending for a great man......Dementia is a cruel end…

Tell me, exactly who could actually stay on that horse? Then I will tell you. The bad-assed sage would have worn that pony out.
