Reg has done a reading from Edgar Allen Poe's work The Raven for you this evening in one take mistakes and all ....he hopes the words wash over you with some understanding....it was a bit of a tongue twister
"A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse!" Cor, you reminded me of Sir Lawrence Olivier.
Wow, you should be on the stage of the RSC. Really well read!
It's my wife's Birthday tomorrow so I recorded the children singing happy Birthday to her so i can wake her up with it tomorrow .....i'm sure she is going to love it.....then she will have the live version when they all pile in........
Reg thought he was just going through a rough patch......but of course being Reg he'd got it wrong again....and now he just doesn't want to talk about it.......
I heard M.T.C's Session 1 today and thought wow!!! so asked if it was ok if i could jump on for the ride..Jim said Ok! .......so here goes.........a song about loves dream being broken.........thanks again Jim...................based around these…
This one is live from the cellar last night...Unplugged recorded with one mic..so close your eyes and imagine me here alone on a wet Monday night in Sheffield in the cellar alone as Elvis and Jim had heard about an Happy hour round the corner…

Reg, while I appreciate that you are obtaining musical inspiration reading bed-time stories to your children, do *not* use this interpretation of Edward Lear's poem to tuck them in - and this song is way to rockin' to put anyone to sleep.

Reg was watching the ladies on the dance floor then suddenly one took his eye.................................a bit of noodle that turned into something........
It's funny but Reg doesn't feel the same when he goes back to his old hometown....He feels a bit of a stranger not just to the folks but to himself it's like he doesn't recognise his old self anymore ..........so Reg discussed this over with Elvis…

Reg has nipped down the cellar tonight to contemplate the big question...this is what he came up with ...he could be wrong who knows...and now he's going for a nice hot bath...............

Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair

Finally going to end this RPM with a slop fest.
Pretty disgusted with my efforts. I did have some fun though.

I thought you said you couldn't play guitar! This is an awesome cover!! We need to do the Joe Cocker version "With a Little Help From my Friends"!
