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.
When I first heard…
It was a curious and wondrous thing.
One night I was in my studio adding some percussion to the "Quiet Rituals" track by Barry van Oudtshoorn, when my 4 young children (with whom I was long over-due to be tucking into bed and reading a bed…

A cool wind brings the fall
And the season starts to change.
Outside the sky's steel grey.
Inside my heart is too.
And I don't know how to…

.......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

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
Trying

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...

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…

Comments on Norm's stuff
Yeah, this would song great with some Verbed-out surf guitar. very cool man.
Norm, this is wonderful stuff!
Many thanks, Launched! It is always a blast working with ReefWalker.
Dude! Strong stuff. You got the timing and the rhythm! I also thought the tracks that appeared on reefwalker's songs worked really well - Awesome!
Nice one mate dig it. Thanks for your comment mate.
You must be surfing in California. You may find the temperature more appealing in Hawaii or Central America! ;) Thanks for listening!!
fun piece of music
I love your toys!
this is excellent
But it's so damn cold! Still, freedom of the waves! Loved this one.
Sweeeeeeeet!!!!
Ha! I agree - in fact I'm fairly certain that it is an unalienable right for all; but you've got to be very good about the sunscreen.
No-one should be denied the chance to surf naked! :)
What a great groove!
Pure magic!!
Nice, definitely nice! I love the way there is a melody in there.
Welcome to Alonetone, Mr.Percussion Man. Great to have you aboard.
Getting the message loud and clear all the way from those Virginia hills.
Delightful stuff. Great performance from the children and wonderful music.
This is wonderful! w;-)
