Wow... This has got the Awesome Factor big time! I let my kid do some Synth for one of my tracks the other day... There is nothing in the world greater than Being able to share time like this with them! I think is is amazing that this is a poem that you heard as a Child as well, and are now recording with your own children.. Warms The Heart Bro! A Wonderful and Well Performed track! It's really Spooky as well! Bonus!! :) Well Done All!! Peace T(OsCKilO)

What a great gift to share with your kids. The drums are done superbly...as is all of it. They will have and cherish this forever....

Talk about original! This was fun to listen to. Thanks for sharing.

your tech. is great. I like the title too! lol. Although I wouldn't wanna surf naked in parts of florida now....that oil spill.

being so high up in those awesome blueridge mountains must be good for the musical soul. :) Thanks for sharing.

great playing! What kind of mics did you use to get such a crisp sound? And..by the way, wouldn't it suk if aliens came and used our skin for drums? lol

I'm a percussionist first and foremost so I love this. Awesome jungle jam. Those congas sound nice and full.

You're funny. I just hope now that his child has had a taste of the caribbean flavor, that he doesn't go to pot.

How did I miss this? Very cool and original - No idea how you managed to perfectly sync with the piano. Love it, though. (And yes, it was a while ago, but I still miss my dog. You never get over it do you? But I really see the humor in a sad dude pining away over his lost dog, too!)

I really enjoyed this. I always read alot to my kids, so I understand the special relationship between the favorite books and the kids and parent. And I love that you included them, still kept the artistry serious, and produced a good product.

When I was young, I remember dreaming about what I called "jungle drums"; I'm not sure why. I dreamed your song...long ago in the depths of some astral flight apparently. Thanks for recording it.

very nice!

My Dad played the drums, ha, I thought he did! This is tribal indeed, there's a little tinkle in there too, nice touch.

Thanks Norm for listening! looking forward to hearing Jarvis lay a guitar down on Surf Naked!

Jarvis, yes it does have a "Wipeout" sound to it - I was trying to get that sort of vintage surf music feel into a drum pattern. Now if I can only find a guitarist to do that quick decending "doodle-loodoo-loodle-loodle-loodle-loodle-loodle" surf guitar lick at the very beginning... what in the world do you call that cool sound anyway?

This has a Bluesy feel to it that is screaming out for a guitar to play over.

Nice sort of Spanish sound to this ,makes you want to weave and flick your hips.....owwww me backs gone !!!

This has deffo got a 'Wipeout' Sound to it which will be interesting to somehow avoid in a gtr track.Imay have a stab at it. Nice drumming.

tight, and sprinkled with some interesting perc's brotha !

You got my groove goin' :) Very cool! w;-)

@Bee: *"I would like to hear it sung straight"* Do you think that is a reasonable request to ask of Reg? Personally, I prefer Igor's approach.

Is this stretched? It reminds me of jelly fish too. (You crack me up Bee!)

Awesome drum track! :)

@D: The vision of you dancing with your 4 month old to this delights me!

This is great fun!

Pro track.

This is wonderful.

Excellent work. Go team!

What a story! I agree with Chicken on the excellent base. Ok, uncle. What is the drum track?

Eegads Reg!

Yeah, this is great.

Excellent!

@ Vaisvil: *La clave es la llave, la llave es la clave*.

Ah! Don't look now, but your classical guitar training is showing - this is fantastic!

Dang those Greelies.

Excellent.

Now Reg, there is still a lot of truth in this one. Beautiful job!

America's going to love you Reg. Make sure to swing by the Blue Ridge Mountains when you get here.

Good grief! Reg, stop introducing her to your friends... if Bob gets mixed up with her he will change his tune to "Don't be Happy - Worry!"

I can't wait to hear what becomes of this...
