Well Reg has found himself in some difficult times in the past and has needed his time in the Asylum just to let time catch up with his mind.........this track is about such a time...when his affair with lovemebaby turned sour.....

This one has caused quite a bit of discussion between us on how it should be mixed. Has anyone got an opinion because we would like to know how you would have mixed it, where would you have put the bass, piano, drums, voice, guitar etc. Any constructive…
Tom came down the cellar this morning so Reg Regged up one of his tunes....... Straight out of the Micro Br i'm still trying to figure it out but it's coming..............

Guys, this is great!
Thanks! My dad taught me to jive when I was about 5 years old. He used to have my sister in one hand and me in the other on the dance floor. He was a drummer!

Reg has been reading a lot lately he's currently reading an interesting book called "Storming Heaven LSD and the American Dream by Jay Stevens" and so he decided to revisit A Toast to the Stone-age he did with Norm during Johnny's death and before…

No it’s Nothing but a shakedown
Can’t we let this go

Reg had a bit of tiff with the Mrs so he stormed down the cellar to release his anguish with Elvis and turned it into this little beauty .....now he feels a lot better and is making Mrs Reg a nice cup of tea to say sorry....because lets face it…

Excellent work! Welcome back other Reg!
@ Beth: Well, since you had to ask! Yes, the percussion here is very nice: I would classify this not as Bossanova (a Brazilian pattern built upon Samba type rhythms). To my ear, this is afro-cuban and would be in the "Son" (aka Salsa) family, in which the "2" is the primary accent. There are a variety of patterns in this family, differing primarily in tempo:
Bolero; Guajira<104; Danzón = 104-132; Cha-Cha = 108-126; Son = 122-224; Son Montuno = 184-216; Mambo = 224-264.
All encompassing at this time of the morning.....with the mist settling over the hills ....still dark but with an eirry glow.....and it seems to be keeping Seb settled too.......thanks ,.....I may try putting the iPad in his room .....you never know I may get some sleep......
A song about my wife. Recorded 2005.
I'd just taught myself how to play piano (badly).
I'd always wanted to be Freddie Mercury when I was younger... still got a bit of a ways to go.

A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.
I wrote this one in 2002 during the "dark years" lol. I've ummed and aahed over the years on whether to…
We’re standing up for the job creators
We know that someday they will come through
All that’s needed is lower taxes
That’s what they’re waiting for us to do
We think it’s great they have so much money
We know they’ll spend it responsibly…
We've all met them! Haha. Got a bit of a rocky head on doing this.
"I ain't gonna love her like I said I would, coz my friends were all quite right - she's no good."
Most of the lyrics written in 1999, a tough year. Many thanks to JB for his awesome screaming lead playing (done first take, I should add!!!) and to LadyJane for supplying some oooo's. (anyone needing some vocals - send her your song!)
This is a beautiful song from Joni Mitchell. My friend had his 50th birthday and this was my gift, I played it live at his party and recorded it later (4-2-2011)in my livingroom.
It's one take, can't mis that if you listen to it all the way…

You say
I doesn’t matter what I say
All the time we spent is gone now
Taken out
You cry
I'm not even asking why
Your head's up in the sky now
Your alive
When I ask you to explain…
Love the accent in the vocal it seems. To give it more meaning ...pretty much agree with what Adrew says ....the vocal and the song is where it's at......
Just what I needed ......got the children ready for bed or rather wrestled them ready for bed and now to relax with some beautiful piano ......excellent Chris Thanks
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…
Texas hold em poker, and going for it all. Open mic acoustic with some alt tuning. Percussion by Norm.
The kokiriko? Norms playing in there actually sounds like shuffling cards- particularly loving the glockenspiel addition he did…
