I went over to Reg's place the other day and he sort of scared me. He was out on his deck, pitching butts and spilling gin that he couldn't afford. He was a mess and had a crazed look in his eyes. I could tell he was ruminating again about…
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…
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…
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…

Drum-n-bass composition I did back in 2004 via digital-razor-blade technique with an additional fat synth line. That's it. Hear something you want to add? Go for it!
Another of Reg's loves in through the out door...................
SHE’S GONE (Lyrics)
She doesn’t need me
she doesn’t want me
She has gone
She’s closed the door on my life although i’ve done no wrong
i Can’t tell what she wants

I was listening to Andy Casson's song Old ladies over on Songcrafters and it got Reg thinking........... could this be the last song i ever hear................so Reg went down the cellar to write a one chord song using only the notes that make…
Reg has been thinking he's fed up with all this celebrity crap.......the emperor is naked can't you see..........
CELEBRITY STRIFE (Lyrics)
I’ve said this once
I’ve said this twice
I don’t give a damn about the celebrities life
About who…
Elvis got philosophising in the cellar again last night.........................so Louie and Reg got Bluesy with him and this is what turned out of the session.........

Well I asked the mirror if my dreams would come true…
Sometimes it seems ... No: it always seems that we are all in some kind of closed squirrel circle, and we all run, run... away? Both I and thou. Why? The meaning of life whether it?
No, I'm not crying or whatever boring. I just wondering…
Charlie, I too have a fascination with "The Theme Song From Peter Gunn"... one of my favorite from Mancini. The francesca vocal fx is slightly reminiscent of the skat singing of Edie Hart, so I am sure this would fit right in at *Mother's*.
A steel string guitar improvisation I did last night before bed called “A Nagging Thought“. The piece prominently features a V+ to i (augmented dominant to minor tonic) movement. I usually don’t care for the sound of an augmented tried but in…

Man that's so great, awesomely played and recorded percussion! I loved the cajon, never managed to record it properly myself lol
Precision percussion. Crisp recording. Can hear the fingers. Love it. Without seeing this performance in person it is hard to believe it... :)

Comments made by Norm
Excellent percussion work!
Really rocks!
I dig it!
Stand strong Reg.
In some cases, we can only hope it is the last time.
Ah! Reg, you are right. I thought she looked familiar. I wonder what she is looking at - no doubt somebody has dropped their wallet on the sofa.
They say a good wine has nice legs...
Debt is not what "eats the soul", Reg.
Tough to beat a monk and monkey combination. Nice work!!
Let's all kill our televisions! Good one Reg.
Get a new mirror, Reg. Great vox as always!
Speechless.
This is another gem from you! This really moves! Great vocal work.
Awesome!
Time to start stealin' again! Nice build up and dreamy guitar.
Excellent question...
This would be good to play while the credits are rolling at the end of the Reg movie...

Best bass groove of all time. I can't help but think of the Blues Brothers and the old arcade game "Spy Hunter" when I hear this.
Auuugh! Once seen, never to be forgotten... regrettably. Fortunately, once heard, not forgotten either. Nice work!
