While Reg was travelling the country he met an old Indian gentleman called Abdul Aziz in a newsagents in the city of Bradford in the North of England while buying his morning paper. Reg struck up a conversation with the old man and they got on…
This is a song i always wanted to have a go at and it wasn't until Johnny let me have a go on his representation of it i got my chance. Thanks Johnny for letting me have a go, may you rest in peace............

Reg was positive that she was the one until he had chat with Norm who said "Be careful remember Desirea" Norm was only trying to help but it has put doubt in Reg's mind and now hes not sure what he wants...........................thought i'd do…
was waiting for, no boozin, "no carooooooozin" elongated part of the word to be sung. Maybe a re-recorded version? But I do like this how it is, which is good.
Reg was reading the paper today about the Spandex vigilante. Now Reg has got himself sorted becoming a superhero appeals to him. Ummmm about the suit i think it should be Blue to match my eyes with a large TTR motif of some sort on the chest in…
this is great! Your a song recording machine, not exactly a multi-tracker but a rock n roll multi-tasker of sorts. I've always wondered about the spandex wearing folk, where do they all come from kind of thing, if you know what i mean. lol

Reg has just had a moment he doesn't mean it, he was in the bar entertaining the leeches his fellow companions on his shadow of a life and he became depressed at his situation and struck out but he doesn't mean he would be lost without his companions…
Reg! You need to work on your intra-personal skills with the establishment's patrons if you want that piano tip jar to get filled up.
Damn that Disirea! She's gotten into your head and now it's messing you up.
The darkness has come to haunt Reg again.....
The Darkness comes again
Disbeliever what is your name
Your calling out from the dark again
I hear your words but there not what they say
in my mind there as clear as mud
The trodden…
Damn operatic Reg......this is very good. This is like something from a Rock-opera. How I wish I could tickle the ivories like this....I really need to spend some quality time with my piano.....but my damn guitars are always leering at me everytime I try........back to this excellent song........thats Prose man, a libretto....operatic. Some strings would sound deadly, cello maybe, string trio kind of sound..........maybe.

No more messing about for Reg, this is the one she has long black satin hair the body of an angel, her accent is pure English rose she stands by the bar talking to her friends, she turns Reg catches her eye and smiles a bolt of electricity zaps…

Thats what I was needing tonight boys.........sweet groove, unlike anything ever heard before, yet grooving so hard it hurts......Norm drumming is so insanely slinky and groove I damn near danced my underpants off here tonight .......too much info? OK.......moving on then.....to the black haired maiden......just the description alone is enough.....I am smitten.....if she is anything like this song then it is hopeless............hang on Reg....she will steal your damn soul.

Midday field. I watch the lark, which serenely rises in circles up to dissolve there, forever. He sees no danger around. Why [should] I care?

I recall that in childhood we all watch adventure films (or performances), and here the children…
I was always more the actor.... we should make more time to lay in a field watching the Larks play with the sky wondering the unanswerable questions in life
Beauty and artistic taste is clear to everyone and eternal, although it does not save the world.

A Late Walk

When I go up through the mowing field,
The headless aftermath,
Smooth-laid like thatch with the heavy dew…
Looking down the road as how sweet it will be after the bug” virus”
Is gone
Open the doors and windows , drive fast with the top down
We gonna drink some wine with friends o mine, pas the bottle around
Go to a block party…
A song I made up in retro style, just for a bit of fun ;- ) I used various guitars. It's partly sung in English and some of it in French. I try to do my own mixing, so don't expect too much LOL... Regardless, I hope you enjoy it ! Kind regards…

You won’t hear me if I have to…
Here's the first of several versions that you'll see from a collaboration across the inter webs started by Greg Connor. He got us together on the Zoom and then look what happened!!!! Music and lyrics collaborated with the talents of Steve Krell…
Well it's been a long while (as seems to be the pattern lately) and I was inspired by Greg and Ron's new songs.... Then I saw a lovely note from the Proods saying "I must have been writing during this crazy time" - so I had to respond with something…
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

Okies, so I'm working on some other thing and it's taking a while... drums to do and wotnot. But in the middle of it I'm digging how my Martin acoustic is working out. You probs won't even be able to hear it amongst…
Looks like I'm a little bit drunk, but hey, I don't care LOL... It's been a while since I've uploaded something, but no excuse now during lockdown time :-) I still don't have proper recording facilities and I'm forever trying to find my way…
What the hell is he making in there.... has a touch of Tom waits about it .... intriguing as I have no idea what you are on about but it held my attention for the full 2.28

beautiful lyrics “ my heart was broken when the last girl found it” ... love the backer bouncing along nicely ... Loved your phrasing... did I say I loved it ... downloaded and saved ......forever
A few thoughts on this one....
First.. does that... could it... do you think... Reggae? I wasn't planning on that but it just sort of happened. I'm not sure how but... I think... I think I might like it.
In a spur of the moment thing…
Comments on thetworegs's stuff
I can hear it perfectly, just as you describe, you got it.......sweet track, very emotional..........deep and wide man, deep an d wide.
Reg is on the up and up!
Your production velocity is outrageous!
Perfect Reg, just what was the feeling here.
Love it!
I love it. The additions took it to a whole new level. Most enjoyable.
The "Come On Baby" vox are excellent.
I almost missed this one. Superb twists and a great choice of cover tunes.
