Reg has been watching the news again and it doesn't look good.......
No one knows who set the tommahawks free
Man says attack the devil don’t ask why
Just sends his angels falling from the sky
Scorching the earth burning…

Reg just loves watching old films and the one he watched last broke his heart and it was all based non a lie ....
That Poor Mockingbird
they killed the mockingbird
That jury of twelve
they took away the truth to that…
This one is gripping. The echo tail sounds amazing on your vocal as well. And I'm not sure you left the few seconds of silence at the end on purpose, but it fits.

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…

What does it all mean

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.

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…

When I was a music major one of my friends had a family which ran a funeral home - a well paid profession seeing that they had several cars, maids and butlers - and spent a few nights there. (We tended to stay up to the early am debating…

I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
when you wake up
and it feels like its further away
you get discouraged
could it have really gone unnoticed
what you're tryin to find
isn't so black or so white
it's more rooted in faith and less in fate
what you're tryin to find
isn't so gift…
each time I’d look at you
I was looking for a breakthrough
some emptied sigh, some reasons why
everything I’d left behind
reckless provisions for some blooming vine
followed me, in the back of my mind
forgive me, mother for the lamb…

I finally got my trumpet out, after 35 years of it being stashed away ... another draft from RPM2012 ... enjoy ... lyrics below:
When I was just shy of 17
The days were short, the nights were kings
We stayed awake to sing a song
We never thought…

she hides her heart under the pillow
waiting for the good fairy to come
replace this worn and broken thing
with a heart that can feel again
she's never sure which night will be her lucky one
but she anticipates…
Apocrypha is a progressive rock song in the sense of Rush more than ELP or Yes. I had come up with the guitar and via my GR-20 the strings - everything else you hear was performed by my long time collaborator Frank Miller (Phantasm777) - so that…

Woo....amazing tune. Sounds like the Who. Funny, I've been playing with the capo on the 2nd fret lately.
you know I love this one Reg!
Woah! Wasn't sure I had clicked on the right song until the vocal ripped in. Would much rather listen to this than watch the news. Good one.

Great movie, great song.
Kicking it love to see it - wrinkled shit
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 :)
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.
