Reg had an apiphany life is short and getting shorter so get on with it, whatever it is you need to get on with get on and get on with it .....
Get it on
Go get your plan and tear it up
Lets all start again
Its…
Reg is worrying that the new interest is not interested .....
Are you just messing me around
Theres a danger in your eye
that I keep seeing
I don’t know why or what your fearing
The clock keeps going
It keeps ticking
The sun outside…
That something that summer brings along but we quell it, keep it wrapped up tight inside ....
I've got to ramble on
There must be something the night wants to share with me
It wakes me from my dreams when I’m not unaware
It feels…
Reg got to thinking as he normally does and decided to write a get well soon song for a friend.
We'll be waiting
Its shocking what life can do to you in a heartbeat
It can take away everything that you have
It can make…
For the last couple of months on and off I've been clearing up 30 Acres of old wire entwined with twigs barbwire and other shite and haven't had the time or the energy to play guitar at the end of the day. It certainly taught me patience doing…
A sad tango of a song .......
Karli & Frank
Karli gin soaked sat on the bench
She didn’t know where she was or what she was gonna do
Her head was gone to the clouds
Her head
a mash
of everything she was mean…

Reg was strumming and has got to thinking, I know he shouldn't but he has and he thinks the governments of this world have given up on love and understanding. They now want us to hate, hate, hate, hate, be angry, put against one another the haves…

I thought I'd try my vocal through the pedal board with this one recorded the guitar on a mic and waffled some words a nice end to a busy day gardening
Midday
Oh lawdy, lawdy,
I saw my baby come to the window
and…

I love how raw this is. The vocal performance is incredibly sharp but the phrasing is so incredibly chaotic in the verse sections, like I have no idea what rhythm or meter the lyrics are following by the time you get to the hook and then it's just snapped right back into the flow. I'm not sure if this is a demo, but keep that, it really works.
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…
I was having a new gear day I received a new pedal for my Bass only £23 so I was playing with it with my eventide H9 and mojo mojo pedal and the tracks developed into this...corruption
Hope you enjoy
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…
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 is dreaming of summer ....
Tangerine
I’m lost in myself on this cold Febuary morning
Walking the dogs trying to smiling inside
But my heart feels sad its yearning for the sunshine
Where everything…
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…
Several years ago I was having a beer with an acquaintance in the Vittoria, a pub in Clifton, Bristol. At the time, his failing relationship meant he stood to lose an awful lot out of the spoils of their joint home being divided. It was a situation…
She hangs a little garden
so everyone can fit in her yard
when it's time to take tea
fills it up when they're walking about
they really knew how to twist and shout
and they're always going back that way again

jqscutt posted the acoustic guitar track looking for ideas, not sure if it turned into the genre he was looking for :)
The auuuggga horn sound was another classic unplanned phone interruption during the vocal recording but it seems to fit in…
Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !

You're just kidding yourself if you thought I could resist the chance to add a bit of percussion to this wonderful song by Osckilo & Launched. I used Paiste Sound Discs to create a 3vs.4 polyrhythm against the delightful underlying 4/4 Spanish…

Oh yes.... A fine set of songs
LOVE THIS
Reg has been thinking the same sh!t I have!!! Omigod... I'm not Reg am I? Cool track
This drives along... nice one. My advice to Reg is to learn not to think - it's what most of they "Normals" do...
The sun is shining here. Sadly it means I probably ought to attempt the 1st lawn cut... but there is SO much cat poo...
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)
