I was watching the breeze in the trees and it got me to thinking ........
Winter
I look into the trees and I see that the breeze is blowing and I’m beginning to freeze
Cause the wintertime is coming cause the leaves have started blowing…
The perfect lyrics to capture my feelings about the coming winter here in Minnesota too... the 6" of snow we got last week made it all the more real! great song!!!
Well Reg was watching the news and he couldn't believe a word that our great prime minister was saying ....He believes that Boris is actually working against us rather that with us in our battle against the Covid. Reg lives in the North of England…
A dark one for you ......Reg was reading the paper and the story of a cold case, about a murder of a Prostitute Wendy Robinson finally being solved after 22 years, her family had almost given up hope of ever catching the perpertrator got him to…

Wow!! Ray has done a cracking job on this....he has made a silk purse from my pigs ear attempt at the piano, the instrumentation is perfect for the song and the production is also..... i'm sure you'll agree .....I love it Thanks Ray

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…
Poor old Reg is off to rehab again ...maybe this time he'll learn
Tomorrow is another day

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.

a twist in the tale....
My sister Mary calls on me
Very rare she comes around
She tells me she is in love with this guy
Who lives on the other side of town
Wide eyed, loud and gushing
She tells me his name is Danny McCrew
Over coffee…
Don't tell me the sky is falling
You're gonna break my heart
You look just like a friend I had
But I don't remember you
Come with me
You'll be safe in my arms
I'll hide you away
Your mom won't know
Your dad won't care
Your sister's…
There's a story behind this that's uninteresting to anyone but me. A short version is that my old, broken guitar (made semi-immortal with duct tape and instrumental willpower) needed to play this Dylan song before it is laid to rest.
Mr. Greene
The most beautiful man I’d ever seen
Our high school teacher Mr. Greene
Little more than a child at seventeen
In love with our teacher Mr. Greene
Immature and so out of touch
Just a silly schoolgirl crush.
Dreamy kid; Duran…
Trucks pass by my house all night
Across the river east and west
I hike for several hours a day
And climb upon the granite crest
Where I can see the valley floor
And forest with its secret streams
The gold mined towns that lie below…
On the last day of summer
The day before school
It started in the water
Everything was cool
Until we saw this thing appear
It didn't have a sound
This darkness in the water
Looked like a shroud
First
I thought
“I’m trippin’”
There…

I could hold you closer
I won’t ever deceive
This forever’s not hollow
If i could only, make you see

Kisses Goodnight
Verse One
After Goodbyes and all,
We’re now on our way
We’re leaving here for now
Cold hands, spin me around
Eyes lock and innocence becomes
My eyes
PreCH
The photographs
Still frames in my mind
Forged memories…
I seem to find peace at the bottom of a bottle of Cote de Rhone again
And I think I found truth here in this honest confession
I've fucked up more times than you can imagine
Spent too many days in haze and confusion
Waiting and moping and…
The beach was deserted
We walked at the water’s edge
I knew she was a gift
As close as our future steps
Sunset forgot us
While we discovered life’s
Underformed questions
Washing onto naked feet
The wind rolled in
Carrying the moon…

Now that we’re home
I’ll admit to you…
Demo for FAWM ’25. Based off a poisonous plant prompt, which in my case was Yarrow (Achillea millefolium) a plant that to my initial disappoint is the "kid gloves" of deadly plants, traditionally more common for medicinal use than murder, but…
Song #6 for my 2025 RPM Challenge. This one is sort of a dance (anti-dance) song. Composed mostly using my Juno Synth. It took ages to put together oddly. Thanks to anyone who dares to listen!

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!!!
