Well, don't know what the earlier version sounded like, but this sounds mighty fine.
Really nice song, as well. I don't write enough songs about my wife! (I'm kind of assuming that's who it's about)
The first song I wrote, and yes Fran nicked it !!! It's about the nightmares she was having,which was keeping me awake at night. Same old dream about her childhood & her mother,say no more !!
Fine song. And really the first one you wrote?
Wish I could get my missus to go near a microphone... I've got her as far as wearing headphones in the studio and passing comment on what's happening... but I can't get her to contribute any noises (apart from turning on the washing-machine when I'm trying to record a vocal!)
Iam Air guitaring allright, The nieghbors caint believe thier Eyes. "Nude Air Guitar"
is an American art form, Damn here come the coppers. Loved it Rodger!
A re-visit to a song wrote in 2008. A simple song, in my subconscious I think someone like the great Hank Williams was having a poke about. And no, I don't compere myself to him or other greats from the past. I'm just me !!!!

From a dark place. Inspired by a T.V. play & of course many News items over the years. Sadly also by close friends, ' But by the Grace of God, go I.....'

Another old one. I sort of call it my 'Ram' moment !!! As if !! Anyway, I can remember I wrote this 3 or 4 weeks after my mother passed away. Yeh, I know, a strange song to write, I like to think I was celebrating her life. She was a great Mum…

I've been working on this song for 3 years. I recorded it many times. I was never happy with it until Trevor(Regs) made it a song. Fantastic job on the vox man.
I know I don't often do cover versions but I'm doing a whole album of Cockney Rebel songs, never do things by half!! maybe. this is the second song, again, not like the original but based upon ...
Another one jip1965 sent to me for playing with!
Silent and magical
Calming and practical
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Filtering through the air
Twinkling in our hair
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Dancing on the leaves of trees
Shaking…
I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…
Yes indeed R.I.P. Jimi, just realized 42 years ago, How old am I ??? The Man who turned me on to music, 'Are you Experienced' ?? What a Track. Great version mate.
The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
Cover of one of my favortie Beatles songs, from the White Album.
I actually bought a capo for this, after 30+ years of thinking capos are for wimps.
The Songcrafters.org Beatles II fest prompted me to go ahead and record it.
I need an electric geeetar. My weary old Crafter electroacoustic picks up every touch. 'Scuse the solo, I'm only a strummer..
Anyway, the song. Clogging up my brain, had to get it out. Some lasses don't know what they look like, and some lads…
I just bought a new Gibson SG Standard guitar with P90 pickups. I bought it after listening to Steve Krell's Gibson Gold Top with P90's.
Here is my first recording with the guitar.
Lyrics:
Sitting in my living room
Sunlight will be fading…
This is a new song that started as a guitar pick, then got some words. I finally recorded this. It has 3 parts. Nylon guitar, Electric and voice. This is part of the "human racing" series I am working on.
Matter is surprising
Not what…
Reg has been talking to the Lover man and listening this time..........
Karma (Lyrics)
Somebody told me what the lover man said
And man did it turn out to be so true
If you take it
And you break it
You break that girls heart in two…
Well Reg got to thinking about his Hippie past and that its nearly time to go mushroom picking again before that first frost............i had nothing to do with it by the way....i'm innocent your honor ......Honest "Guv"....
Picking the Shroom…
Another lyrically-challenged collaboration with jip1965, who sent me a guitar, bongo, percussion track with a recorder playing named, simply, 'Love'.
I added the piccolo, crystals and windchimes from my virtual keyboard, renamed it 'What is…

Yep, I can see Alvin Stardust doing it too...
Great!! For some reason I could see Alvin Stardust doing this ... but I have a weird imagination.
That's some fine playing Roger! One line really caught my attention: "She loves me so much, I have to ask my sorry ass why".
