Of course, I thought I had listened already but that was when it had the Vaisvil treatment.
Sort of head tossing hair everywhere tempo.
Liking the sound effects too.
@ Shirt: Thanks! Those sounds are from a matched set of "vibratones". The first sound is from an "ocean drum" (with reverb) and the final drone is from a "spring drum". The click sounds in the groove are a Japanese "Kokiriko" and a steel "Merengue guiro".
Merengues are fast arrangements with a 2/4 beat, originating from the Dominican Republic. The traditional instrumentation includes a "güira" (guiro), which is a percussion instrument that sounds like a scrapper. The Merengue güira is a cylinder…

I dont think I have heard you play the Guiro on any of your tracks before. I really like it. It seems to ground the whole song and bring it together. Kinda sounds like a brush on the trap
Reg's friend, Austin has a crush on this girl Louise who is way out of his reach. He is trying to pluck up the courage to tell her how he feels about her. He writes poetry about her. He goes to the bar where she works so he can see her communicate…
Reg has been sitting in the cellar reading some old notebooks and he has decided it's time to air some of his secret stash of poetry. He knows the word poetry can turn an audience of quicker than a desperate man turns a women off but he is prepared…
Well Elvis couldn't just sit still watching Fredrico and the others having such a good time Jamming, he got up and joined in........i mean the party has only just started...................
She was my Princess, Queen of my highway
She was…
Ok, I can already tell that this is going to have a tragic ending...
Whatever you do, DO NOT allow any females into that basement at this point. Desirea especially!
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........

My version of this classic guitar instrumental. It was cool to learn that radio stations banned this back in the day since they thought it was too raunchy and violent, even though it didn't have any lyrics.
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…
@ Dave:
Why, Louie Armstrong, of course!
@ Reg:
I don't know brother - your basement is beginning to sound like the bar in Kubrick's "The Shining". I'm beginning to worry about you.
Well, I feel almost human today. Been a rough few days with the flu or something. I'm running on a baked potato - seems I can't each much else yet. It was ironic that I became sick just when I went to pick up a Boss Loop Station I found for half…
Sassy Nation version!
Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…
Who should come down the cellar to see Elvis but Bon Scott. Reg got on with him like a house on fire, i mean they have a lot in common. Reg told him all about his new love. S o they decided to jam and this is what they came up with…
This is wild! Strangely attractive, inspite of the voltage noises you push through my head. A couple of great guitar licks, around 2:30 and love the rhythm guitar riff around 5:45.
Your percussion work is top notch.
Reg was reading the paper today about the Spandex vigilante. Now Reg has got himself sorted becoming a superhero appeals to him. Ummmm about the suit i think it should be Blue to match my eyes with a large TTR motif of some sort on the chest in…
Reg has just had a moment he doesn't mean it, he was in the bar entertaining the leeches his fellow companions on his shadow of a life and he became depressed at his situation and struck out but he doesn't mean he would be lost without his companions…
Reg! You need to work on your intra-personal skills with the establishment's patrons if you want that piano tip jar to get filled up.
Damn that Disirea! She's gotten into your head and now it's messing you up.
Had the blues in Alabama
Had the blues in Texas too
Had the blues all over
Now I 'm givin' em to you
And if you don't want em
You know what you can do
You wont find me I'm goin' ta run and hide away from you
Because I see trouble
Trouble…
Comments on Norm's stuff
Thanks Norm,................... lovely groove for my Saturday morn here.........
I would and have missed this one.....a great collab......well done Gents...... thanks Mark for bumping...
Yes - I love it. Puts me in the zone!
I still can't get over how great you made this. Perfect taste in every way.

Fabulously slinky groove!
mellow groove, bro....
Im am sure Franz von Assisi will love it :-)
Fabulously slinky groove!
PBS had a good segment on Occupy Wall Street it is the beginning of the show. http://video.pbs.org/video/2147489762
@RW: Ooooh, nice to see that you are in touch with the church calendar. I put it out a day early...
excellent percussion, for a second there I though it was oct 4th already, but the day of his death escaped me !
very nice!
St Francis groovin' with all of the animals.
@ Shirt: Thanks! Those sounds are from a matched set of "vibratones". The first sound is from an "ocean drum" (with reverb) and the final drone is from a "spring drum". The click sounds in the groove are a Japanese "Kokiriko" and a steel "Merengue guiro".
Nice! the 2 sounds that were used in the mid part were cool! nice groove!
Got me groovin that's fo sure!
Funky Francis would have loved it......I did
Very nice, hypnotic, narcotic, why-not...........yeah, I like the way it makes my tired brain feel. Nice one Norm.

Reg, show Austin a few of your dance moves and help him write a love song to her. That will do the trick.
Well done!

Chillin' at the casa...
Technically speaking, it would no longer be Hell with you at the piano, Reg.
7/8 = awesome pick for this song.
Excellent! Percussion is top notch!
Excellent cover. Great history too - I didn't know that.
@ Dave: Why, Louie Armstrong, of course! @ Reg: I don't know brother - your basement is beginning to sound like the bar in Kubrick's "The Shining". I'm beginning to worry about you.
Nuthin' unsteady about those hands. Great work! And what WAS that stuck to the eave?
There are lots of reasons to love this. I'd list them, but it's already obvious to all, and I'm too busy listening to this gem...
Great song.
You are hanging out with some fairly hard-core partiers Reg. Be careful!
Very clever!
Very clever.
Your production velocity is outrageous!

"Don't make me take out my spandex." (LOL - Mr. DGAS deals with the creeps with your PIN number on their fist.)

Awesome stuff!
