Tess's dad was in a band and the highlight of the night was usually Dave Bunday's drum solo. Several of us would dance to it. The drum surely was the first instrument?
This track really shows me that you know your stuff Norm. I bet they'll all be sampling it like mad. And why not? Ha ha.

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…
Out on the lawn there arose such a clatter!
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…
Wanna go for a ride? Hop on in! (Many thanks to JQScutt for his excellent guitar work!)

My contribution to this year's RPM Kitchen Challenge.
Very silly.
Well, can’t you see the baby’s crawling
And pulling up all by herself
I can’t imagine what will be falling
When she climbs up on the shelf
See how much she likes 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…
well, I've given you guys a couple years to answer this.What is the time signature on this piece? Can you snap your fingers to it?
Didn't think so.
Chris, this is a master piece. I just love it still.
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.
A new son reveals…
@Shirt: *Pilón* is not only the name of this pattern, but also the name of a town on the southern coast of Cuba. Perhaps both Pilón coffee and the pattern are connected to that town in some way.

@Bee: I believe that you are referring to the first 3 off-beats of the measure, which are played on a wood-block heavily distorted with "gated reverb"... but I've never heard a chicken that sounds like that! :)
We join our friends from the cellar on their annual camping trip into the middle of nowhere...they decide to have a little fun and sing a song round the campfire to stop the arguing........if you know the song why not join in…
Uncle Reg has another story for you children ....now sit still.....and listen....i know its a music site but you may like a story........ i know my children do
This is a reading of one of my favourite books, that I read for my children, they are always totally absorbed not only is the story superb but the artistry by Axel Scheffler is also fantastic. During the telling of the story i must cover every…
Well....the lead in the background and the main is done by a vocal Fx ......no guitars were harmed ......the rest of the music was my trusty M-audio Pro keys ......i sent it over to the other Reg as an example of what i wanted him to do with…
Ha! It thrills me to hear guitar replaced by vocal Fx! **Take that, you string pluckers!** You can be replaced!!
*Ahem*. Excuse me. I'm transferring my grudge for drum machines and drum sampling...
I'm better now.
*But still snickering a little.*
This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
This is my first of the year so a Happy new year to all and thanks Norm for the beat .....hope you enjoy.

Once again the source material is a snippet of beautiful piano from [Sudara](http://alonetone.com/sudara) only this time I fed it to a new Reaktor instrument that I am working on call Tukuramu.
Okay so tukuramu does not mean earth-quake but…
