Reg had sat listening to the Wrinkled Shirts track and decided it was time to tell you the story of how he found his Mojo. it was a time way back when, to far back to remember. when he was just a young man. when he had decided to fast-forward…

Reg was just tootling about with the piano and he got possessed by someone and just couldn't stop. He's thinking it must have been the Devil himself because he just couldn't stop......or maybe it was the Moonshine........

Now a decade old, I thought I would revisit this mix again. I have done this a few times as I continue to learn the craft. I thought it would be a good exercise to undertake as a start thinking about writing again for the next record.

First song I'm posting for RPM 2025. Not sure I'll finish this year....but I'll try. Wrote this after listening to more of the horrible news coming out of the US. Watching for you Over shoulders Can’t believe our eyes Bolt the doors…

This is a love song for Idaho. Funny thing is I've never even been to Idaho, but I dreamed the chorus and the happy little riff some years ago, and it's stuck with me ever since. So, I filled it in with some verses and an outro that capture the…

One for the RPM... THAT WOMEN A E D I tell you this women she got no soul she gotta heart made of stone That makes her blood runs cold She’ll take a young man with all that love in his heart When she leaves him he’ll have nothing left…

from the new album "the Hardest Blow" featuring vocals from Melissa Childers You see the lights in the sky of a trillion shining stars Image yourself, just one of them You see a field full of flowers and everyone's the same That's what I…

Not the whole thing, just the first 16 bars of it, with other stuff added. Made up the chord progression by ear so it's not legit.

A blues-rock song about going up to the big city (Toronto) for work, but feeling terribly homesick for what was left behind.

Can you feel it, in your teeth It is hiding, smoldering In the shadows, of your mind Where there's smoke there's surely fire Are you evil, in disguise Feel the acid, start to rise Ever shameful, hide the guilt Always lapping at the flames…
