Rumba Columbia is a traditional Cuban pattern in 6: the "go-to" pattern for 12/8 - if you have only heard one Afro-Cuban rhythm in 12/8, this is probably it. As an energetic Afro-Cuban dance, Rumba was often suppressed and restricted because it…

This is a 3/16 Bembe on tuned congas, played with mallets. I've arranged it (at the very kind suggestion of Vaisvil & ReefWalker) in a verse/chorus/bridge/capo fashion to get away from a straight pattern - I think this sort of arrangement…

You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

This is one stereo track of 6 conga drums tuned, by ear, to roughly a chromatic scale (I don't know which one - perhaps I've gone micro-tonal!) coupled with a single track of ad-lib quinto (the high drum) and a "shuffle" groove on trap-set…

Desirea has done a number on Reg, she stole his Credit cards birth certificate and passport and has cloned him to at least a dozen banks that he knows of. He has lost his house his car everything he has./ And to top it all he cant sleep for missing…
Well it's hit poor old Reg hard today that it's finally over between him and Desirea so he's written a blues song to exorcise his pain........I've actually tried to put my own drum beat down on this one by using the keyboard as my drums and working…
Well Reg still hasn't cheered up ...memories of Desirea keep coming back to haunt him he thought it would be a new year a new start .....which it would be if he could only leave the past behind him......so he got the acoustic down of the wall…
That bitch! Perhaps we should make a public service announcement album dedicated to Desirea to (hopefully, but doubtfully) protect others from her seductive evilness.
Reg is back with Desirea he's trying to put their past behind him. What can he do he loves here......
AS LONG AS I HAVE YOU

I look in your eyes and I see a soul baring blue
Nobody knows you…
Regs. You should have called me in your moment of weakness. I would have tried to talk you off of that ledge. You know she is no good for you. You (like many others, may I remind you) have already crashed that car too many times.
You gave her your credit card number, didn't you?
I fear this will not be the last song you write about that rabid bitch wolf in heat.
Great job Ally. Great voice. Great keys. Great guitar work.
It is very kind of you to slum with a drummer who really doesn't do you any justice. You know who to call next time...
Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
this was originally a song about breaking through paradigms but turned into a song about a girl.
Keys and string samples from Korg, MIDI with the old Ensoniq,
one diving board.
Thanks for the listen ,enjoy... RW
Didnt get the album out for RPM this year, but did have some time to make some music in Feb. Dylan is one of my favs . lowered the BPM quite a bit and truncated the lyrics to fit, which Im pretty sure put my wife to sleep, lol Enjoy!
Lyrics…
I recorded the sound samples at St Marks Basilica on the spot....the story you are about to hear is true; not even the names have changed to protect the innocent.
All of a sudden, Mercy. Just like that.
Everything: Reefwalker
Percussion: Norm
Sound Bite: A bad-assed sage, who is very special to us.
Etching: Bob Coronato
Gene sent me over this beaut of a funky backer of the song by Tower of Power a real tounge tister i'm guilty of the vocals Gene did the good bit Thanks Gene
Reg, you may be the only person I know that loves this song as much as I do. Even Reefwalker is way too young for this. Such a shame!
As I have always told you, your strength is funk. And this is about as funky as it gets.
BUMP CITY!!!
A collab with Tod from the other side....Thanks Tod..... i'm responsible for the waffle & lead ....Thanks for listening
Drink the whiskey
The earth has burned nothing here will grow
It’s just a dust bowl and earth as hard as bone
There…
She does that to all of us Reg. Over and over again. Don't take it personal.
If it makes you feel any better, her dog ran away and now lives at my house.
After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!
Wait. Desirea is back on the scene? When did she get sprung from the Big House? Has she actually gone to any of her anger management classes?
(And how is she looking now days?)

Should it be "A Fool for Your Stockings feet" Thetworegs? I love Reg's basement, but come on! Charlie, get it together!!
As always, great voice and tasty licks.
MORE COLLABS!
Comments on Norm's stuff
Dude! You own this place!!
Ahhh, I really like this. technically, very well crafted with a subtle, smooth blend.
Awwww now I need a long iced drink with an umbrella innit !! gonna make one too...hot skins Norm,hot skins !
Now that is a Performance..... A lot from a Little.... You rule man!
Listened to Rumba columbia just before this. Leads on soooooo Well!! A Great Listen!
Does what it says on the tin.... And so much more! Really Meditative as well! Love it!
Bubbles along like a beaut!
That's some prime percussion. Real nifty playing.
Excellent job on everyone's part!
where is the cuica? :p
Put up the song. Let me know what you think! I had a blast jammin on it!!
Muy FN Bien!
Just listened to the BrianisedBassed up version of this ,good job by bothyas.....
I like the rhythm!
Beefy beats!
In yo FACE Tracy Partridge!!!
Wow! Very cool rhythms!!
very nice
Thats a groovy sound for sure, I can dig this. Who would have thought the lowly tambourine would hold my attentions for so long.
This is great! It takes a special kind of healthy crazy to let it all out in a tambourine solo!

How many times has she ruffied you Reg? Be honest!
Reg, it is NEVER actually over with that girl. Nothing she does suprises me anymore.

Mesmerizing. Well, there is no hiding our hearts from you Savage, because you just tore them all out with this one. Great lyrics and Igor nailed it.
Great job Ally. Great voice. Great keys. Great guitar work. It is very kind of you to slum with a drummer who really doesn't do you any justice. You know who to call next time...
This song changed my life!
Epic. Part of my personal trilogy of yours.
Excellent, as usual.
Such a magnificent moment in time... and this brings it all back. There are no innocents.
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.
Reg, you may be the only person I know that loves this song as much as I do. Even Reefwalker is way too young for this. Such a shame! As I have always told you, your strength is funk. And this is about as funky as it gets. BUMP CITY!!!
Ok. You have had enough fucking time to get warmed up. Let's do something.
I think that you should stop complaining until the whiskey is gone.
What part of this is Carl Jr? Fuck
She does that to all of us Reg. Over and over again. Don't take it personal. If it makes you feel any better, her dog ran away and now lives at my house.
Aww, Tess. So good to hear you again. Delightful!

O. M. G. What a voice! Throw your cheesy drum tracks on to the fire. You will not ever need them again. I will follow you to the end of the world!
