Reg has done a reading from Edgar Allen Poe's work The Raven for you this evening in one take mistakes and all ....he hopes the words wash over you with some understanding....it was a bit of a tongue twister
"A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse!" Cor, you reminded me of Sir Lawrence Olivier.
Wow, you should be on the stage of the RSC. Really well read!
It's my wife's Birthday tomorrow so I recorded the children singing happy Birthday to her so i can wake her up with it tomorrow .....i'm sure she is going to love it.....then she will have the live version when they all pile in........
Reg thought he was just going through a rough patch......but of course being Reg he'd got it wrong again....and now he just doesn't want to talk about it.......
I heard M.T.C's Session 1 today and thought wow!!! so asked if it was ok if i could jump on for the ride..Jim said Ok! .......so here goes.........a song about loves dream being broken.........thanks again Jim...................based around these…
This one is live from the cellar last night...Unplugged recorded with one mic..so close your eyes and imagine me here alone on a wet Monday night in Sheffield in the cellar alone as Elvis and Jim had heard about an Happy hour round the corner…

Reg, while I appreciate that you are obtaining musical inspiration reading bed-time stories to your children, do *not* use this interpretation of Edward Lear's poem to tuck them in - and this song is way to rockin' to put anyone to sleep.

Reg was watching the ladies on the dance floor then suddenly one took his eye.................................a bit of noodle that turned into something........
It's funny but Reg doesn't feel the same when he goes back to his old hometown....He feels a bit of a stranger not just to the folks but to himself it's like he doesn't recognise his old self anymore ..........so Reg discussed this over with Elvis…

Reg heard the color of the lonely street by Vaisvil and Norbert and got himself all Jazzy inside.... so he's released it .........by going out for a walk along the lonely street..........
Reg has nipped down the cellar tonight to contemplate the big question...this is what he came up with ...he could be wrong who knows...and now he's going for a nice hot bath...............
1st voice: - And what if he finds the answer to this question, which he calls the great?
2nd voice: - ...doubt...
3rd voice, from afar: - He don't. Asked wrong. Rather just in the bath...
Why?
Oh' I am not so ready in my heart
But I will reach for closeness to the wind
Fear stops what we feel.
I feel i know you now.

Let's talk of all the things we need to say
No whispers will suffice in our abode
Only song of what we…
a mix done on 11 - 20 - 2012
felt the vocals needed to be raised and different stuff changed and tweaked.
going to possibly do another take on the vocals or add a backing track

I can't quite believe that I'm posting this, or that I've even recorded it. But I've played it like this sat on the sofa in the living room for many years, and I needed something to check out how to record a live "one vocal and one guitar" song…
THE OPENER OF DOORS
THAT SLOWLY EVENLY OPENING LORD
THAT MANY WILL GET SUCKED IN
THAT MANY WILL GET SHUT OUT
FROM GLOWING TO CHANTING OF WORDS
FROM JOUSTING AND THROWING OF SWORDS
DAYLIGHT INTO DARK A CARRIAGE MADE FROM A GOURD
IN THE FEW FLEETING…
This was an RPM track back in the day, and I've been playing it various ways to find a setting for it within the band repertoire. This doesn't sound much like our band would do it but it came out nicely, so i thought i'd share it.
For Elly Barnes
Thanks for the moment to think......
-My part of peace-
To think for a moment
Is the greatest of gift to me.
To think without fear
Better still....
My part of peace

For UK people who liked the Testcard in the 70's. Youtube vid attached. Started as a project, sent to Lady Jane who did her magic. Ummed and Arrred about it, and eventually thought "just upload". Enjoy.
New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
Once upon a time there was a boy with tunnel vision hidden far beyond the castle walls of a lifelong prison. Captive to a secret that kept him there under lock and key. Imagine was his sanity.
Thirteen days before thirteen he broke a sacred vow…
I have always loved jazz and blues but never really had the chops to really play jazz. But I can feel it and I tried to create that feel with this tune using my sweet old 63 jazzmaster. This was also an experiment in doing a complete time change…
Waiting for something that would be: familiar feeling, isn't it? We look forward to when she comes back, look forward to when the morning comes; waiting to stop the rain (or when will finally rain...).
Life itself is a... waiting?

They were watching the world go by from the living room window when suddenly one drops behind the settee shortly followed by the other....one says to be other In a whisper ........"Theres someone at the door"......"you answer it "..."no you do it "...."no."...."well look out the window then"...."it's the Avon lady "...the Avon lady pressed the door bell ....and time stopped inside the house....was she heard by the two acid heads hiding behind the settee.........there was no answer .....she walked away......as they trembled
Jip1965 came round to kick my ass into gear and played a bit of rhythm i did the rest and then sent it off to the good Lady Jane to do her stuff and very nice stuff indeed! Cheers Me Lady!!! x

How lovely! Yes, Happy Birthday to Mummy!
That's the way, start again Reg!
Not what I expected at all but very pleasantly surprised. Incredible vox there Reg and love the music.
Yeah an awesome and energetic cover Reg. If that is you on guitar, you are a fast learner.
I thought you said you couldn't play guitar! This is an awesome cover!! We need to do the Joe Cocker version "With a Little Help From my Friends"!
Reg, while I appreciate that you are obtaining musical inspiration reading bed-time stories to your children, do *not* use this interpretation of Edward Lear's poem to tuck them in - and this song is way to rockin' to put anyone to sleep.
Fabulous wailing!!!! Red hot collab!
awesomeness!! Reg I love your inner rock star!

I always love the way your songs tell a story -- awesome as always

The spirit of jazz, as a phantom of the opera before, is walking down a deserted nighttime streets. And sings. He sings to himself, about himself.....
