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

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…
This was one of several songs I recorded in a session on the night of my 29th birthday. I had decided to just start playing and see how many tunes I could write straight through without stopping. My only rule was that these tunes had to be totally…
Excellent playing Dave it must be a bluesy Sunday all over the world wow!!! Just banged into the solo.. Now that's how to play a guitar .......excellent and still 2mins left......now it's weeping have youu tiger in the amp...if it sounds like That keep it in there, keep it in there.......I'm gonna have to hear this again.
Final version
I wanted to have a banjo fiddle tune but i still haven't learnt to play either instrument, so this is my famous 1 string banjo technique, with mandolin and guitar. It's style is inspired by meeting Morgan O'Kane and Ferd 4 last…
I heard a story about you
I didnt want it to be true
But it felt like it might
You, well it was all about you
and how the things that you do
Seem strangely undone
And life doesnt help out the weak
A lifetime tends to bring you some…
A track from my RPM 2011 album 'Glass Wall'.
I just whipped this up in Garage Band using a loop called 'Exotic Sarod' for the main melodic theme (hence the title). The Sarod is an Indian stringed instrument. 'Sarod' means 'beautiful sound' in…
I created "This is life" in a bad mood. I just picked a nice drumloop and started to improvise on my keyboard and I'm very happy with the harmonies arised from my mind or hands :)
This song was inspired by a melody my then 2 year old daughter was playing on the harmonica one day back in 2004. I picked up my guitar and strummed along....I kept playing around with it and "Caught in the Rain" was born.
I wrote this song as one in a series of potential songs to be performed at a friends wedding. I liked this one so much that I modified the lyrics and recorded this version as part of my "Transition" album.
Our big epic number. surely a closer. tried to write words but the organic way the song came about kept me from violating such a sacred thing with something less than stellar. or as organic anyway. every other attempt left me feeling...
fake…
This track is from the 1986 Scartaglen album "The Middle Path". The first tune "Jezaig" was composed by Breton musician Gilles Le Bigot. The second tune is one of the "Cantigas de Santa Maria" and is attributed to King Alfonso X of Spain

An unaccompanied song about bedtime. Not a lullaby though. Oh no!
What does anyone think of the 'cat's moustache' line - it seems like that's a make or break call right there and i like it when i read it but it's hard to sing without…

Narrator:
"Hey pumpcrop

is it time to phone a friend?
I said, hey pumpcrop

A live studio take,made in San Francisco's "Different Fur Studio"deep in the heart of the "mission district"..a live audience made it a lot of fun!2010
My uncle used to tap his foot and sing "six feet under, six feet under" and my grandmother
would tell him to stop and say it was bad luck, so I made this jam based on his melody.
Well, you are not going to often hear a 70′s metal piece from me. I have to plead affection for genre as it is what I grew up with in my garage band days. In this piece I put to use my stratocaster copy strung up with “Not Even Slinky…
I watched a few episodes of Metalocalypse and Dethklok inspired me to make this jam. I don't think it turned out "metal" enough though. The harmonized sweep arpeggios were the hardest to play. Hope you like it.

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)
