Reg was reading the Telegraph the other day and was surprised to see all this fuss about children and screens filling the front page and following pages. Why? when theres a war going on.... so Reg got to thinking and wrote a song…

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…
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.

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…

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…
I missed this one Bethan's beautiful vocal and Lisa's playing along with you guitar a wonderful piece of work what collabs were made for....excellent job all round.....
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…
This is the third song from the Thomas - Lennon project.

like it ....that bass gives it a great Doors feel.....in fact I think it's turning into love on a first listen and we are only 2mins in ........yep it's love .......
Sounds like the snows still blowing....liking the rhythm and the abstract beat you have going ....nice blister of a solo.......not the normal trip but liking it a lot.....gets the thumbs up from me
This was played on my Yamaha Guitalele, recorded direct into my Boss BR-80. Its like a Uke with 6 strings. I tune it to the equivalent of DADGAD, like a guitar in DADGAD capo'd at the 5th fret. These are wonderful little instruments, and hours…
This song came from a lyric that never made it to a song...
"Beholders Shape Perception Whilst Their Views Control Intention. Objects Outline Power Through A Stalemate Of Opinion....."
I forgot what the lyric was about and tried to interpret…
The first of 4 tunes coming your way with
the spotlight on my friend "Michael Thomas of Cave Street"

This one is my favorite and chills me every time I hear it.
It never, ever, gets old.

Too far to remember my subtle suicide
And your words came and swept me away
And i woke up on this Thanksgiving Day
I was lost like a child in a secondhand store…

Woo....amazing tune. Sounds like the Who. Funny, I've been playing with the capo on the 2nd fret lately.

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.

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.
