Long drum solos aren't for everyone - I get it. Just do what many at Grateful Dead concerts did and look at it as an opportunity to go get another beer. On the other hand, if you are the sort of person who cheers at the fireworks show, I hope…
Improvisation on congas and very fragile, clay Moroccan bongos (which my brother found for me from an African display at some zoo!). These bongos are basically clay pots with permanent, very thin goat skins stretched over the top - they can not…
I asked CaptGene for something funky, trusting that a fishing guide from Babsom Park would know exactly what I was talking about. He did. The Captain knows funk.
I used to have a link to his original version here, but that is no longer available…

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…

Thanks man, I am learning from the best ;) when I was playing around with the percussion samples last night I kept thinking it needed something, and I listened to your drums a few times and went......COWBELL!!!!
As I had nothing better to do last night, I had this great idea that I would construct a rhythm for the 24 hour challenge. This would be different: a 24 minute drum solo (I mean, who wouldn't love that?). I even had a perfect bass riff: the "Mother…

Such good fun I do it all the time.

Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

Reg has just gotta get on gone, he wants to move out from his old lady's into reg's place where it's happening, what with Elvis in the cellar and his visiting friends jammin all night, Reg is almost living there anyway. So now he has decided to…
Jamming with a couple buddies. I screwed the lyrics up but it was fun to do. Who doesn't want to at least try an AC/DC tune?

RPM 2011 - my first track recorded and the opening track for the CD
A kind of Old Time gospel number, which, if you listen to those pre-war guitar playing preachers, are virtually indistinguishable from blues. Except for the lyrics…
I heard this by Norm and it got me thinking about an idea of an old friend who turns up in need, its a surprise , you haven't even thought of him in the last six months and here he is what do you do?............
Well it had to happen sometime, he couldn't go on living the way he was, even with those full throttle hands there was no excuse, he was guilty....... guilty as charged........RPM2011
Comments on Norm's stuff
I almost missed this one ! cool perc track from start to finish
Totally hot and inspirational! Fabulous beats bringing a sweet melody of their own.
Bethan thinks you should lay down some percussion to add to my Christmas Jam...I don't disagree!
Excellent Norm top rhythm brilliant.
Killer, very nice!
dig it, snr :)
Oh great stuff Norm. What a lovely rhythm. Most enjoyable track.
I agree with Dave very infectious, i've caught it ........oooooooh Yeh........
Your sense of timing is unbelievable man. This is very infectious and cool grooving song. Drums as melodic structure, its very inspired.
Most excellent!
I *love* this - its excellent!!!
I can dig it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!
Cool title and the percussion is spot on as hell...lots of talent Norm.
Great collab very cool dudes.
This one got the head nodding and the foot a tapping.
Yeeahhh!!!!
Thanks man, I am learning from the best ;) when I was playing around with the percussion samples last night I kept thinking it needed something, and I listened to your drums a few times and went......COWBELL!!!!
Even with your troubles I still dig this one man.
This is one of my favorites!! Matt Fulton
Comments made by Norm
Excellent.
Beautiful Kirk!
Go Reg Go! Delores was no good for you anyway... Reg won't mind putting you up for awhile and you two can work on a few tunes in the meantime.
Way fun!
What a story!
I agree with the Captain: this is very good. Please, more details on how you produced this!
Yes, this is excellent! Great voice!
Another routine Vaisvil piece. Oh, and by routine I mean: Hang drums. Ebow. 17 note octaves. Fretless bass. Outrageous prose that is difficult to logically follow. Exploding fish.
Excellent!
What a lovely tribute!
I'm afraid that I must fave anything that Bethan loves so much. And I quite agree with her. Outstanding work, ladies.
Now this really works! Well done!
Kidneys? Most excellent!
She was no good for you anyway, Reg. And a good bender may be necessary to get over it... but don't crawl into that bottle. Stick to the tea!
Someday may not be soon enough. I want a pre-war guitar playing preacher for my church. Well done!
A blast from the past. Still sounds great, Chris.
Don't do it Reg!
Je dirais - l'eau bleue, mais alors je ne suis pas français. En tout cas, je l'aime ! Le merveilleux, la caractéristique Doug Sparling solide.
How in the world did I miss this?? We may never know your friends song...
We're going to miss you Reg!
