I live in a house with a river running at the bottom of the garden so i wrote a song about it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sz0ygixKAno
When I get down by the river and I watch it flow
I Wonder where the hell it finally goes
Snaking…
Wow. That works. Really uplifting.
We've only got slugs down the bottom of our garden. And the top. And a lot of snails in the middle. No ants though - they all seem to have moved into the house in the last few days...
it's getting late so theres no time for finness it might be here by the morning .....

Reg has got a little soppy since he met his new girl, the widow Desirea. His pretty sure she's the one but the old fears keep rising. He knows he has to put the past behind him if any relationship is ever going to stand a chance of working…
Reg: I think you should do a Google search on Desirea. I am not so sure that she is actually a widow. Just sayin'. Be careful! You should do a criminal back-ground check on her at the very least.
Reg will just not listen not only have Chris and Norm told him but Elvis Jim and Louie all had the same advice..Forget her....move on but he is going against all the advice. He just can't get Desirea out of his mind, he loves her. He's trying…
Aww Regs, I'm back in town from Rio. Stop listening to your geek AT friends (they don't even know me. I've only met Chris once). Call me - I want to meet you at Hélène Darroze at The Connaugh.
Well Reg still hasn't cheered up ...memories of Desirea keep coming back to haunt him he thought it would be a new year a new start .....which it would be if he could only leave the past behind him......so he got the acoustic down of the wall…
Reg is back on the drink there was no escaping it. He found out that Desirea was not what he thought she was, she had been telling him lies and his hopes were dashed again.............. theres a little mess up on the Xylophone but what can you…
Reg. Stop. This is not good for you. Just copy and paste the following to Desirea: "I just booked you a flight to Gofuckyourselfville and your departure is now."
Desirea has done a number on Reg, she stole his Credit cards birth certificate and passport and has cloned him to at least a dozen banks that he knows of. He has lost his house his car everything he has./ And to top it all he cant sleep for missing…
Well it's hit poor old Reg hard today that it's finally over between him and Desirea so he's written a blues song to exorcise his pain........I've actually tried to put my own drum beat down on this one by using the keyboard as my drums and working…
Well Reg still hasn't cheered up ...memories of Desirea keep coming back to haunt him he thought it would be a new year a new start .....which it would be if he could only leave the past behind him......so he got the acoustic down of the wall…
That bitch! Perhaps we should make a public service announcement album dedicated to Desirea to (hopefully, but doubtfully) protect others from her seductive evilness.
Reg is back with Desirea he's trying to put their past behind him. What can he do he loves here......

Regs. You should have called me in your moment of weakness. I would have tried to talk you off of that ledge. You know she is no good for you. You (like many others, may I remind you) have already crashed that car too many times.
You gave her your credit card number, didn't you?
I fear this will not be the last song you write about that rabid bitch wolf in heat.

Oh, man. We are sitting on the terrace right now, doing nothing particular but listening to your song about us (Pinot Grigio a bit, too), as we now. I'm loving it, man, you know.
P.S. Dude, you are the best, as usual.
I have a new love in my life A Kemper this is the first recording using it. John https://thebigbaddog.co.uk/ is playing guitar i'm theo ne warbleing. Trying to get a different slant on a classic for the band this is as far as we got today but…
A club-mix of my first electronical production from last year. I tried out some VST-Effects I haven't used before. The name "Kater" is german and can be translated into "hangover" and "male cat", probably i had an hangover when I produced it :)
A good friend and percussionist Norm Harris contributed percussion to this track – A Cast of Billions - so I ripped out all of the midi percussion and used Norm’s percussion, added a track where I speak Evan’s poem and did some remastering…

Sister Savage and Mr Sandbags collaborated on the original of this wonderful heartbreaker of a song. I've been playing it on the guitar the last few days and it always seemed to come out with a grittier tone, so i asked…
Had the blues in Alabama
Had the blues in Texas too
Had the blues all over
Now I 'm givin' em to you
And if you don't want em
You know what you can do
You wont find me I'm goin' ta run and hide away from you
Because I see trouble
Trouble…
My mother was telling me a story the other day and at one point she used the phrase "I used to could..." and I thought it would make a good title for a funk jam, so I went home and recorded this. Hope you like it.
RPM 2011
So wide awake the hands are still
Too tired to keep them silent
It barely pokes above the surface
It hardly registers among the crowd
So long and waves the farwell
We’d better tell the authorities
Goodbyes are so beautiful
Disappear…
RPM 2011
Seasons start to change without much worry
Ordinary days no reason to remain
The clouds will force the rain realize its glory
Nothing keeps us sane better start to hurry
Slow monkey cabin fever
Free clinic dirty needle
They’ve gone…
RPM 2011
You say the world is too complicated
You say close your eyes forget it all
Nobody sold me a bridge in the desert
Nobody remembers with our eyes closed tight
You say somedays just a point of view
You say someones not much different
Nobody…
RPM 2011
No explanations left to give apologies over
She wanted more than the story, but nobody told her
I hear the insane are hardly worth the medication
But she'd like the story just the same, for when she gets older
It's not the end…
RPM 2011
Wait for the room to focus
Feeling around for closure
The whiteness of my skin
The pale reflecting eyes
The beaty of total darkness
Move to the door and open
Room after room of sorrow
Breathing through your mouth
Flooding from your eyes…

Love that organ! A good instrument to tango with indeed. Stay well. You’ve captured the feeling we all have right now 🍀💚🍀
Such perfect lyrics for these imperfect times. Always so fun to hear your wonderful voice. All my best to you!!!!
Merry Christmas everyone and back slapping new year

You can STFU Norm. This is between Reggie and me.
Reg. Stop. This is not good for you. Just copy and paste the following to Desirea: "I just booked you a flight to Gofuckyourselfville and your departure is now."
How many times has she ruffied you Reg? Be honest!
Reg, it is NEVER actually over with that girl. Nothing she does suprises me anymore.

Most creative groove those chords flow nicely . Good vocal value . This works!
Sweet! I’m taking this message to heart. Thanks Tworegs
Wow! Now that’s a keeper.
I absolutely love this song!!! Perfectly captures how I feel some days. Awesome writing!!
