@Bee: Yes, these traditional patterns frequently have a melody of their own, and while it can be varied to some degree, an audience familiar with the pattern (and the dancers) expect to hear that melody.
Otherwise the percussionist had better be playing behind some protective chicken-wire!

@Tess-...I love the declaration "First" here on A.T....it always makes me laugh.
@ Norm- love it. I like the panning as well, and also love the complex pattern build, especially toward the middle. First class A+ percussion.

The relationship is going wrong. You suddenly realize that those so called friends of yours are paying a little bit too much attention to your honey................ (Take 2 remixed to see if i could get the voice cleaner)

Track 6 on Tarbosaurus Antagonist. Written and recorded from February 2009- January 2010. This is a T.Rex cover, but I didn't want to interrupt the flow of the album.
Reg is addicted to this new lady who has started to frequent down at the cellar she appears as if by magic late in the evening and then seems to disappear before Reg can get close.....
Careful Reg! She could be a hallucination! I don't like the sounds of this... er, well, I mean the sounds of this situation.
The sounds of the song are top-notch, as always.
I thought the hand claps were a bit weird but I wasn't running this dog and pony show. See more notes under "red cowboy" and "I left my toothbrush in St. Louis".
Reg has been trying to learn the art of slowing down, relaxing under the pressure of abstinence.......................it seems to be going well .............
