Reg Rotton and Kari (Redlar) live in the cellar
Aint got nothing but love and that won’t do w/ Kari

Reg went to the cinema last night to see Baz Lurmans Epic and woke up this morning beleaving he was Elvis ....someones got to tell him he's not..... he's started sowing beads onto his boiler-suit and will eat nothing but peanut butter and bacon…
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

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…

i suppose this one is a lullaby, two uke tracks and 1 vocal track lots of background noise including my sinuses.
as darkness falls
all around
is silent now
you settle down
and go to sleep
a darkness falls
sweet dreams
my little one
sweet dreams…
I thought we were heading into Cash town at the start.....then we went somewhere new........thanks for the walkabout......Super playing...like a dream in sound...
Some new material! This album is not yet complete but I thought I'd share this track. I'm very proud of this one. An aggressive start with an emotional end. Please share your thoughts. -Mike
playing with my eyes closed
rpm #4 2012
from about 2 min on it's a bit hot,, if anyone has some suggestions on how to balance the range, i would appreciate it r
I find it difficult to believe this is all Midi instruments.
The Midi guitars, bass & leads, I ran through amp sims.
The drums are all Midi. 7 tracks.
Kicker, snare, 2 tom tracks, high hat, tambourine, and a cowbell.
All done on the keys…
Different recording here as the electric guitar, bass guitar were not plugged in, just recorded raw with a power mic and then EQ'ed to make it sound amped - pardon mistakes!
*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.
A new son reveals…
At one point, I had a version recorded with much better guitar -- at least I thought I did -- but I can't find it now...
Another one of those tunes that kept growing after the demo was laid down, this song now has twice as many verses as you…
This is the fourth song from the Thomas - Lennon project.
A collaboration with Michael Thomas of Cave Street.

Michael and I always have something going on, So I'm sure there will be more.

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 :)
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.
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.
Cool, keep rolling!
