Aw, we tried to make this a bit more pro, but sometimes the really fun moments in life are fleeting. So here it is warts and all. But don't mind that - just get out onto the dance floor with Reg! It's ok: he's up to date on his shots.

I must admit that those drums do rather make me want to get up and dance.
This is a great track guys!
Nope, I don't notice any warts, not even a little pimple!

Once again,, very fine,,, long ago,, people used to clear the floor also when i got up to dance,, but it wasn't because i was good, or they wanted to watch,, i think it was more out of a desire to get away from the strange guy,, ah well youth.. well done
In Argentina they say "in Argentina everything may change - except the tango", but I couldn't resist adding some percussion to this beautiful nuevo tango by Vincent Voois, composed in the style of Astor Pantaleon Piazzolla.
Check out Vincent…
Improvisation on Gon-Bops congas, while thinking of future days gone by.
4/4 180bpm.
LYRICS
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…
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…
For this Mother's Day week, a conga improvisation dedicated to Saint Monica and all the other mothers who surreptitiously provide for and incessantly pray for their children. Thanks Mom!

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…

Took the advice and put on the headphones. Oh yeah!
Most enjoyable!
Faith? Much better than hindsight, when you know you should have taken the basket but didn't.

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
Norm's overdubing percussion is a tight add on to this sweet funky Rreggy track. love it!
A great job there Norm those skins are definitely helping Reg's dance...........
I must admit that those drums do rather make me want to get up and dance. This is a great track guys! Nope, I don't notice any warts, not even a little pimple!
@ Richard: Keep dancing Richard - I'm right behind you and it's not going to be pretty.
Once again,, very fine,,, long ago,, people used to clear the floor also when i got up to dance,, but it wasn't because i was good, or they wanted to watch,, i think it was more out of a desire to get away from the strange guy,, ah well youth.. well done
I don't know how i missed this .... now where did i put those dancing shoes?........
yep yep yep...
Thank you for your nice comments,let us say that you have a lot of very interesting ideas using you percussion,here and there!
Ah the rich flavorful sound of the Conga is super:) thank you for that Norm!
Yes, like the Reg's say, excellent.
Faith is a gift, not something you can independently improve.
My basket is always half full......
I need to fix my basket. Inspirational, Norm.
excellent
Improv or not, this is really awesome.
a refreshing change up. one of my favs. forget the metronome. really like the (gong)? in the beginning too
Most excellent! Love that bit where the downbeat gets hidden for a time and then returns. Very cool!
Took the advice and put on the headphones. Oh yeah! Most enjoyable! Faith? Much better than hindsight, when you know you should have taken the basket but didn't.
Brilliant mate top job Norm. This is excellent mate.
Awesome. check this out Norm! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpfYt7vRHuY&feature=player_embedded#!

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.
That bitch! Perhaps we should make a public service announcement album dedicated to Desirea to (hopefully, but doubtfully) protect others from her seductive evilness.

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!
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?)
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!
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!
