Another RPM
Things are looking up for Reg I mean its nearly spring
Spring
I think I hear a whisper
I think I hear the whisper
Of spring
its on its way
I can see the snow drops starting to climb back into the world…
Another RPM
Reg is looking back on his childhood.
Mama says i can't play with you no more
I don’t know how I’m gonna tell you
But mama says I can’t play with you no more
Your not like all the other boys
I can’t play with you no…
It all started with a tinkle on the ivories
Blue eyed boy
some say you’ve got it
The gift of the gab
The harmonious Tounge
That can sing a love song
With all the good intentions gone
Somewhere some blue eyed boy weeps all…
Another RPM
Reg has turned matchmaker he's better at that than being a partner himself
Love makes their world roll
I had a friend who told me, he wasn’t the man he should have been
He’d got tangled in his mind and…
Possibly the last one for this years RPM
The Only thing I feel
The wind blew against the window and brought the morning I
Sunlight hit the curtain and I’m sure it trying to break on through
My senses woke to the smell of tobbaco…
Another RPM
Reg is just turning himself inside out
Inside out
Everything seems inside out
My guess is thats what its all about
No body knows, how I feel
Everythings hidden, no one, has a clue
No one knows how I…
Another Rpm Reg is still sad ......
A sad song
I’m going to sing you a song
It won’t take long
The story is sad
But the story isn’t long
I’ll begin the song
About a woman who’s dead
Died in her sleep
alone in her bed…
Another Rpm Reg is still sad ......

Rachel & I went to see the new Bob Dylan movie "The complete unknown" last night of which I throughly enjoyed although Bob did come across as a bit of an arse at times. But anyway I was having a strum and thought I'd try and write a song in…
Another for the RPM
Reg starts to thinking about things...
Why did God give us thought?
Everyones afraid of the darkness
close your eyes you dissapear
Suddenly you are nothing but a voice
Syllables of sound a constant…
Another RPM
Reg starts to worry that he's forgetting his loved ones that have passed
Your memory fades
I can’t see your face no more in my mind
With my eyes closed your image starts to fade
I forgot your vioce how it…
Reg reckons he's found the essence of his problems if only he found that little bit of love earlier in life it would have all been different...... or would it ?

Reg as gone introspective ..... too long looking in the mirror this morning while shaving and he started thinking not a good thing to do first thing in the morning....Thinking...i mean the sun wasn't even up!
It all started with a strum…
Have you ever had the Tuesday feeling? Reg has....
Tuesday feeling
The reflection staines the window not realising it’s already dead
it doesn’t understand why the thoughts it has are not in in itshead

I keep my mouth shut cos I don’t wanna be
I don’t wanna be obscene
I keep my eyes shut cos I don’t wanna see
I don’t wanna see what you won’t see in me
Sheared, shucked, soaking in the mud
None you could shake from me
Tucked up, pulled tight…
This is a one guitar (Fender Mustang) improvisation leveraging my GR-20 into bass guitar, strings, synth wash + strumming and percussion. At 2:58 my low A string breaks and then my left forearm and hand cramps up. But it was fun as it lasted.
a character disorder
I've got a character disorder
you know they say I've got a borderline
personality disorder
and I'm sick of taking orders
like a waiter or or a nun
I want to be the one that gives the orders
I hate the nurses…
This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…

This is a remix of an improvised track I did for our first RPM album. For this new mix, I got rid of the vocals & added a most excellent electric guitar part by our good friend, Chris Mitchell. He listened to the track just once and proceeded…

I'm listening to this 3 weeks later.... and it's MUCH more springlike now... as long as you don't turn the radio or tv on :-/
Woah... I get the reference/influence... but this takes the idea a whole different place for me. Shivers down the back of my neck (and some memories)

...okay... I am starting to understand the character "Reg" - I think I have to look deeper into your catalog...

I've just been trying to explain Reg to Mrs R... decided I can't do it as well as he does himself.
A truly happy ending!!
Loving these.... I'm hearing the ghost of Alex Harvey trying to break through here... probably my imagination.
It's good to hear old Reg again. I was gonna say "will he ever be happy?" ... and then I read the blurb lol
