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.
Sometimes songwriting is easy sometimes its just all noise…..
Sometimes its just all noise
I’ve got this pocket book with a story of my world
With Words misspelt
words misunderstood and
Rhymes that will not work
Chords to a theory…

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…

Another for the RPM Challenge ...... Reg got broke by three little words
Three little words
She said
I love you
but she lied to me
She told me I was hers
till the end
Those three little words made me lose my way…
Another for the RPM Challenge ....when will this bloody rain stop want to see the sun again....is it still up there?
Rain
Seeing the Sunrise in the morning
Then life wouldn’t be too bad
with this rain pouring down…

A slightly schizo soppy/sexy pop song. Written and recorded 15th/16th Feb 2016 (as part of RPM challenge).
I'm channeling some 70's pop ballads and (somewhat) Barry White here. I'll not do it again, I promise.

from the sMallWavesEp
the thought of it makes me cry
i’d like to be friends
with all of my enemies tonight
i see her in tattered rags
i’m blinded by what she once was
and now there are no more to say
i’m empty, there’s nothing…
Like A Wave
--
If you make yourself a mule
someone's gonna ride you
this I know
Like a breeze moves through the air
or a wave upon the water
is how I go
When you can freely give
of all that you can hold
you can know no more…
This song's going on 32 years old...
Some 12 years older than I was when I wrote it!!
I borrowed the title from one of my favourite madrigals, The Silver Swan by Orlando Gibbons:
"The silver swan who living hath no note, when death approached…
My kids no nail jelly to the wall... I'm sure Of it when I'm try to scrub it off. .. Love the vocal kinda got a touch of early Grace slick about it sand the guitar sounds great very psychedelic
I hesitate to upload this, but there are a couple folks around who like this sort of thing. This is an edited down version of a jam I had with myself back at the end of 2007. Live to 2 tracks with the aid of the Jamman. I think it was the first…
The wonderful MN songwriters helped take a bite out of the January cold on Tuesday night this week and added some amazing depth to Singing in the Silence - We were as usual, recording on a little TASCAM around my coffee table. We had lots of…

Great movie, great song.

Oh-oh, his poor wife..... :-] He does a nice job on this. Gonna be tough telling him he's not his alter ego :-
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 :)

Yep !👍
Loving the punk vibe
So sorry for your loss!!! The lyrics of this song are so very sad
Beautiful.
What an opening track to the album. Awesome.
Very intimate. Love your subtle effect on your vocals. Nice cover artwork too.
Sounds great Trev!👍
Cool. Kind of a Neil Young vibe going on. I like it :-] (maybe a little Bob Dylan on harp in there as well). :-]
Woo! Great pickin', bro.
I like the sound of this one....you have a real polished sound for this track.
Sitting in a hotel room on Reno by my lonesome watching the sun sink low over rush hour traffic. This is the perfect soundtrack.
This one is really nice. That crying harp is a perfect accompaniment.
