Another for the RPM Reg got to thinking again ......
Shes a shaker
She’s a movie star
Blue eyes black skin like coal tar
Shes a vision on the big screen
She is everybodys movie queen
Made up on a keyboard
Chalked out on a blackboard…
Another for the RPM Challenge ...Reg woke up feeling a little pessimistic and started to ask himself the big question...
What does it all mean
The preacher spent his life building churches out of stone
Making money to…
Sometimes Reg gets a little TOO pessimistic to leave me feeling comfortable... but I love where here was going on this one. Hopefully someone bought him a beer or a bar of chocolate after this one.
Sometimes songwriting is easy sometimes its just all noise…..
Sometimes its just all noise
I’ve got this pocket book with a story of my world
With Words misspelt
words misunderstood and
Rhymes that will not work
Chords to a theory…

Reg has lost Rita and its threw him so hard he fell of the wagon ....
Rita
I’m feel completly unknown
I don’t know myself no more
The vision of myself is confusing
I don’t know who I am any more
I’ve been shook…
Has Reg found the one ?...
Something special
You got that something
Your eyes, they say it all
I can see theres something special about you
I know its true
Theres something special about you
All though we’ve only just met…

Another for the RPM Challenge ...... Reg got broke by three little words
Three little words
She said
I love you
but she lied to me
She told me I was hers
till the end
Those three little words made me lose my way…
Another for the RPM Challenge ....when will this bloody rain stop want to see the sun again....is it still up there?
Rain
Seeing the Sunrise in the morning
Then life wouldn’t be too bad
with this rain pouring down…

Regs mate Charlie is going through a bad time but he knows the good times are just around the corner....
The good times
Well he’s sat in the bunkhouse
Sitting there thinking about life as its passing him by
He knows…
A little background to Reg ....everyone he meets tells him just to stop and sort himself out ....is it really that easy
DIY
They tell me I’ve got to do it my self
Its just a touch of DiY
To pull my self…
An old song, written when I was in my REM phase; strange, it didn't seem to turn out anything like that in the end. This was also a live take where inexplicably, I changed the whole feel of the song this is the only version with this feel - enjoy…
My take on Gumbo's Keep Your Eye On The Spot, one of many excellent tracks from his RPM2011 album 'Cat's Moustache'. It's something of a departure from the original, though I was trying to retain an element of the gospel so hopefully its soul…

this is one for the over fifties
we strolled along
lost avenues
with no regrets
and nonchalance
who's kidding who
so confident
so bold and full
of bravado
when we were young
we knew it all
with certainty
you couldn't tell
cos we couldn't hear…
she will smother you with all her love
take you by the hand and drown you with passion
she could lead the blind astray
and break the will of stronger men than me
she will take your heart
she will take your soul
gently to her you surrender
yielding…
i posted a solo version of this song earlier, with just me on the juno. but on the day before i wrote and recorded it, i had been speaking to an old collaborator marcello prive from argentina and he said send me something anything, so when i recorded…

Excellent norm you really can get a beat out of anything ......we used to play bows and arrows with our Berinbau we just had a bit of string instead of wire and the wood was. Bit of elder kept us occupied for hours in the spiny wood and the only sound we made from it was the loud Fadunk when we let the reed arrows fly at one ofd the cowboys.....
This is a composition that was realized by playing a Fender Mustang which has a divided pickup connected to a Roland GR-20 guitar to midi converter / synthesizer. The GR-20 generated piano and saxophone sounds (in two passes) which were re-tuned…
The island of Cuba was a Spanish possession for almost 400 years (1511-1898). The land-owning elite held social and economic power, supported by slaves, both indigenous and of South American and African descent, until slavery was abolished…
Comments on thetworegs's stuff
Oh-oh, his poor wife..... :-] He does a nice job on this. Gonna be tough telling him he's not his alter ego :-
Cool tune and yes, the punk feel to this is great. Lyrics - spot on!
Ha! Well, this is a nice treat...and you reminded me of my dad, so extra kudos on that opening.
Another fine RPM! Mighty fine. Well done :)

Yep !👍
Loving the punk vibe
So sorry for your loss!!! The lyrics of this song are so very sad
Beautiful.
What an opening track to the album. Awesome.
Very intimate. Love your subtle effect on your vocals. Nice cover artwork too.
Sounds great Trev!👍
Cool. Kind of a Neil Young vibe going on. I like it :-] (maybe a little Bob Dylan on harp in there as well). :-]
Woo! Great pickin', bro.
I like the sound of this one....you have a real polished sound for this track.
Sitting in a hotel room on Reno by my lonesome watching the sun sink low over rush hour traffic. This is the perfect soundtrack.
This one is really nice. That crying harp is a perfect accompaniment.
This is the perfect range for your vocal!
Best wishes for Charlie....great tune.
Great vocal...sounding a bit loose. It's nice.
