Spare a thought for those with nothing this Christmas..... Homeless with no family.........and no one to help.......
CHRISTMAS ALONE (Lyrics)
Nobody is listening no body knocking on my door
nobody is near me nobody wants me
i’m nobody’s…
I am alone, I am alone.
No one comes to me, I froze.
But I do not give up, I know:
I came here alone,
and I'll leave from here alone.
...and: only if alone
I'm destined to reach my peak.
Who am I?
The insecurity of criticism to the nowhere man ......... I didn't have time this evening to put any music to this so i've put an old instrumental (The Turkish Lout) to it.....hope you enjoy my little drama about that nowhere man....(Be Warned…

Well Reg had an hour or so to himself today so he decided to let it go.......hope you have your Dancing slippers on you may want to shuffle to this one..........thats if the beat gets you.........it got me......

Poor old Reg is having yet another mid-life crisis he's trying to work through...ever been there..........
LOST (Lyrics)
i hear the faint whisper of my youth as it’s calls as it disappears
It’s disappeared from me so quick
the shock has shook…
When i was a young man I stayed round a so called friends house once and heard them talking about me through the walls ........i never let on i heard.........needless to say they are no longer my friend............Hopefully they will hear the…
Another from the tinsled Cellar last night......I hasen to add this not my family at Christmas time.................

Well heres my attempt at singing Jerusalem....i would have liked to have performed it better so that the vocal would have done Chris's music more Justice but sometimes you just have to do what you can and go with the flow........thanks Chris…

from the album "the Machine"
it's hard without a heart
pretending to care
watching with greed and spite
you're unaware
you'll never see the ghost inside the machine
you're weak and all alone
that's why you fail
programmed to fix the…
A simple one-track mandolin tune. In fact it's the first tune I ever made on the mandolin. I think it would be better with a bodhran drum accompanying it, but I don't know how to play those!
Maybe someday this will work its way into something…

with this song-- in audacity --- the seven parts are all layered --- I cut a selection of 8minutes 20secs in and then using the time shift tool I slide the each of the 7 parts of this…
So, what do you think... could it use more wah-wah?
This was written for the 2014 RPM Challenge. The chromatic thing at the beginning had been rattling around in my head for years and years but had never found a home.
The lyrics here…
I’ve seen you crash back down into the ash
Like an inverted Phoenix
So delectable yet totally ineffectual
Those intellectual verbal tricks
I’ve tried to save ya from your bad behaviour
And keep you safe within the mix
I’ve been here to…
The acoustic sounds stunning ..excellent lyrics ..you managed to get the word astronomical in a song you set the bench high....poor Lydia... a beautiful song well performed ...piepod bound
The first song completed for the second round of re-recorded Quarantine Tunes. This one was written on the last day of the 2016 RPM Challenge. I had written a bunch of songs saying that people who think the Earth is flat are somehow defective…
This is a love song for Idaho. Funny thing is I've never even been to Idaho, but I dreamed the chorus and the happy little riff some years ago, and it's stuck with me ever since. So, I filled it in with some verses and an outro that capture the…
So, this is completely different!! In a homage to my favourite place to watch live music in the land...Ronnie Scotts....I have put together a groovin' jazz instrumental piece with a 'live' feel....!! Not really fusion as such, but added to the…
A silly, sort of dreamlike / lullaby-ish tune, about weird travels on a bubble-gum balloon.
Lyrics:
See one time I was chewing bubble gum and it was mighty fine
I blew a bubble so big it took me up into the sky
So this is the story of where…
Some blues/boogie fun.
Ain’t no fun
It's a well known fact
When you’re with the wrong woman
And caught in the act
Sworn to secrecy
We even made a pact
But didn’t matter
We were caught in the act
Been watched and followed
Traced…
Caught this one this morning got the blood pumping loving that harp well in fact loving the whole thing the interplay between piano guitar and that wonderful harp
(Remastered 22/10/2021)
I found this one while I was digging through the shoe-box for the 1994 songs. Apparently I wrote it on 10th November 1995.
Foolishly, I thought it would only take a week or so to record... I was originally expecting…
I feel I should donate something as I've recently downloaded all of your alone-tone catalogue and must say I've been O-D ing on you most of the afternoon and I haven't come across a bad track yet (there's got be one surely where you suck and its badly recorded.... go on put one up for us mere mortals where we can say " Well he's not perfect is he?") love your work Bravo and Thank you

Love the Eastern feel in the music. Your spoken word delivery is right on as usual!
nice work
I love that music. It sounds sort of Chinese, and that's fab in my book. Perfect delivery as usual Regs!
Ah, the vocal that goes with it. Wonderful lyrics as well.
Wow! A real cry from the heart!
Very sad and even more so because it's true. An excellent song.
Oh I see, this is the same one with vox. A sorry tale but ..... Very well done Reg.
Oh, I like it! What a lovely melody.
You certainly gave it the Reg treatment. Good one!
Very clever...harrowing lyrics against a beautiful Christmassy backdrop...thought-provoking.
Thanks for making this happen!
Beautiful! Lovely build up of warm festive layers!
Such a stirring melody, sung with conviction, Regs!
Shades of Meat Loaf in the vocal ...which is fine by me.....good oh Jarvo
ELP like version of Jerusalem...........with a bucolic vocal ...sounds like "angry of the Cotswolds"....and guess what ...I like it !! Encore Jarvo
fun,fun,fun......the banjiano is cool too ! Jarvo
always best to be up front and say what you think.... Good tune ,good tune.... Jarvo
its so sad when people are two faced - great tune
Is there no end to your talent? Great production. Love it

Loving this just keeps getting bigger as you listen ....and that organ !
This fires up a treat
Nice noodling
Excellent 🙂
it drives along nicely why use 3 when 2 will do love the keys
There's deep down Blues in that harp and slide ... it was good but its better now .... Ray you've worked his magic again
That’s was a hallowe’en special while having the morning coffee
That was a mystic ride
that acoustic sounds soft and smooth just like the blues being sung ....
it's getting late here ...but this put some pep in Me
Works for me too and so true ..
I agree with Andrew that Wah is fab great song too
The acoustic sounds stunning ..excellent lyrics ..you managed to get the word astronomical in a song you set the bench high....poor Lydia... a beautiful song well performed ...piepod bound
Ooh yeah!!
I think I love Idaho too and I’ve never been either
Sublime ...wish I was at Ronnies that night
that whispered vocal feels very personal nice rhythm on the guitar mesmerizing track
It’s a foot tapping morning already and I’ve only been awake 10mins ... ooh yeah!!
