Poor old Reg is off to rehab again ...maybe this time he'll learn
Tomorrow is another day
It was Wednesday in the car on the way to rehab
The family they were crying in the street goodbye
As the car pulled over a man in white

Piano & Vocal Thanks for listening ….
The owl and the Pussy cat
If I was a pussy cat
I’d sail of to sea
I’d try and find that place where I really want to be
I’d find a little island out there in the sea
I’d sit on my rock and watch…
Well this is rather fun! Feels sort of like... a nugget of song that a cat is playfully batting around? Or maybe that doesn't make any sense... Anyway, I like it! :-)

A first venture into open G tuning ....... Poor old Reg has been let down by a lot friends in his time and now he's down to just a few fingers on one hand .........So he thought he'd write a song about it ... Gibson acoustic tuned to open G recorded…
Oh yes, like this - very inventive. On the Steel... Hehe... I've used G for years and years and years for slide playing... and it's only recently I discovered that G is the secret to this guitar part (that I've loved for even longer!). I think I watched some Earls Court footage a couple of years back and the penny dropped.
Another collab with Paul Chapman (Chaperzee) from the other side .....
Nothing here
Is this all you had to say
When you talked to me today
I can’t see the games you play
Is it that you with your minds astray
I stand here in dismay…
Reg was reading the Sunday papers today and he's finally had enough he's going to get a shovel and dig himself a big hole and dissapear into it he's had enough of their silly games ....all of them he's off..being him....being the thespian that…

WOW! I've missed quite a few songs over the last couple of weeks... got some catching up to do... I was wondering where to start, and a notification arrived for this... and it's just WOW! This is a stunner. It was an instant fave for me, and it didn't let up. Bravo.

I came up with this one this afternoon its about loss just guitar and Vocal HB 12 string plugged straight into focusrite.........Thanks for listening
The Old Man
the old man thought he was king of the hill
Till life made him feel nothing…
Heres one with the HB 12 string and Gibson SG and a bit of wizardry or clicking of presets and fiddling .....
Your my secret agent
Your my devil in disguise
You are the devils disciple
Sent to burn my eyes
Your something I keep secret…
Someday there will come a time when there will be no Monday. And there will be no need to remember about work or to follow the schedules. For some, it is temporary, for someone forever.

Robert Frost - On Looking Up…
Lebenslinie (Life Line)
Life, if you look back at your own one, or at the stories of others, often seems to be presented as an ornate line. This line is trying to branch out, but since a person is indivisible, that lifeline is always one, but…
Unless of course your life is out of control and the path spirals ending the center of the island after circling for the same answer again and again and never finding it
I write letters, but I don't send them and they go unanswered. I take them out and rewrite them, picking up the words and clarifying the meanings. I wait in hope that a reply will come someday.
I continue the conversation when it's long over…
Since you’ve gone
It’s all gone south
The dunces took over
Stupidity rules
They open their mouth
To prove they’re fools
You didn’t believe in god
And made me wonder how
If there was one
How could he allow
What evil has been done…
A Christmas song about what really matters.........i got the idea for the music listening to Jarvis and his accordian the other evening so thanks J........

(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I've been missing in action for ages - apologies to all, I'm about to start listening again too.
For ages, I'd been considering a move away from my trusty Boss BR1600 on which I've recorded and mixed nearly everything…
Another earworm needing to be expressed - comes to my head when looking at the moon from my garden. I'd love some lyrics - "oh beautiful moon, dah de da da dah" etc but haven't landed on any yet. Its also a bit Taize like, except totally pagan.
When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…
Particularly following a very recent piece, Nordic Noir, I may have slipped into movie/TV/Game trailer mode!!! So here is a piece featuring solo violin that has been titled An Awakening...and listeners can then put their own imagination to work…
After several bottles of wine, thetworegs and I were able to coerce Elvis and a few others down in regs basement to come out for a long overdue collab. After all, isn't October collab month?
Thanks again for the great vox!!
Hey Norm there was a knock on the door late last night and guess who was standing there all sultry and pouty .... yes .... you know who! .... it was her wanting in ..... I looked her in the eye and told her to go .... as she turned to leave I noticed her dress was so short I could see her stocking tops ...... I called her name .... Desirea she turned and smiled.........
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
The music reminds me of a scene from the streets of San Francisco then Karl Malden’s nose comes into my mind and my mind suddenly goes over the hills and far away ...I like it.
So the lyrics come from another age, but they sounded so relevant to the recent lockdown world, that I decided to stitch them into a completely different track.
So, there ya go!
Comments on thetworegs's stuff
Good one Reg
Well this is rather fun! Feels sort of like... a nugget of song that a cat is playfully batting around? Or maybe that doesn't make any sense... Anyway, I like it! :-)
Oh yes. Like this a lot.
Act I or Act II ........
I feel there should be a stage show to follow .... Love it ....
Wow. Just wow.
Owl and pussycat. A perfect childhood memory. Love your vocals on this. It inspires me to go play my piano and do something good with it.
Just ticked the dial over to No. 11 .... that's better ..... Rockin' ...
Oh yes, like this - very inventive. On the Steel... Hehe... I've used G for years and years and years for slide playing... and it's only recently I discovered that G is the secret to this guitar part (that I've loved for even longer!). I think I watched some Earls Court footage a couple of years back and the penny dropped.
What a vocal! I was about to pause it and move on, thinking "fair enough, things to do, though..." and then the vocal kicked in. Woof!
Yeah. That's pretty cool.
Incredible lyrics and I really loved that keyboard sound... like a xylophone mixed in there. This should be in a movie soundtrack. Love it entirely!!!

My favorite tuning for the past couple years :)
I was doing a bit of pearl diving and found this from way back when
That’s really cool, my fav part was your forties . Oh and that chorus poetry
Love the lush feel of this with the strings and piano and the sexy timber of your vocals. Awesome lyrics as well. An instant fav.
That hit the spot ....
great lyrics on this one.
Yeah , Alex Harvey lives in all of us .... great track ....
