For the first track for this years RPM. I recently went on a short break to New York for the first time and had a walk about with my camera and explored most of Manhattan over the three or four days and man did my feet hurt at the end of it…
The wife has gone riding so I came down the cellar and turned up the amps using my Tele and 335 to see what I could come up with .....
I ain't no Mr Nice
Busted broke in Vegas
But I still ain’t had enough
Ain’t got nothing left to give you…

Reg has just realised he's living the dream he's just not sure what that dream is but he's having fun with it.....Hope you all had a good Christmas and here's to the New Year ...Keep Dreaming
Living the Dream

It's too bloody cold to go out today so I picked up the guitar and this came out ....Thanks for listening
Lets learn to Rock n Roll
Hey Mr
Yeah you
I know all you say ain’t true
I can see you pretend to be what your not
So come on…
Reg has been reading the papers again, it always brings him down, but this time he can't carry on looking the other way and ignoring the news and the facts that the life, the freedoms he holds dear are slowly being dissolved not just by his government…
A day of from the gardening and my first go at organising drums in Easy drummer that funnily didn't turn out to be so hard . I'm playing the Tele with the Kemper and Boss Me-90 Thanks for listening
You shook me from my middle
And you…
With a little help from some of the lyrics of the Doors descriptions of the uncertainty of the 60's Reg has decided to do a kind of Punk song from both sides about the trouble in England which seems to be igniting the youth to set light and loot…
After Sebs football today I went up into the loft searching for an old guitar a friend gave me a few years back. When I lifted the lid of the case I saw that the tone switch was pulled off leaving bare wires. I couldn't remember if it worked or…
I was having a strum and this one came out....thanks for listening
We gotta rock n roll
They say if rock n roll beats in your Soul
That the notes make a key to fit the keyhole
To open up a life to be full and free
To makes you, you…

Its snowing so nothing can be done on the garden so why not go down the cellar and have a ponder...and of course get Edie the acoustic out and let her join in with the pondering...Thanks for listening
We hear no evil
we listen the news…
Saying Sorry ....What a drag!
Saying Sorry
I ain’t no innocent
I don’t pretend to be
I’ve always wanted to go through this life hoping just float free
But then today it all went wrong
Everybody seems to hate me
When I’m just trying…

Total inspiration for me this morning! The snow is also coming down here in MN, USA and I don’t think it’s ever going to stop this season. This song captures exactly the challenges we are all facing. Self seeking politicians seem to be everywhere these days! Great stuff!!
I had an hour or so this evening as the wife had a friend over I disappeared down the cellar and started to think about my old man he's been gone now twenty one years and how in his old age when I used to go and see him I'd find him sitting pondering…

Track 9 of this years Rpm challenge 2023 covering the concept of age and the effect on poor old Reg…
The blue of the sky slowly succumbs to the breeze

The leaves start to fall away from…
October 2023 A-side? It started with the stupid singsong thing I remember hearing as a kid and then mutated into Meshuggah... with a special cameo at the end of the track.

Reg crawled out of his bunker and wandered down the hill where Jip 1965 found him and dragged him round to FDR,s cave,the beer flowed,the whiskey jug was emptied and we all turned into AC/DC. And then we went down the Rum Runner and rocked the…
Pleased with this orchestration and the Tina Arena arrangement of this iconic Kate Bush classic...have always loved it! Produced and performed by myself, except for the stunning vocal performance by Tina of course .....

Hello.
Well Hello!
Hello Pillow,
How do you do?
I'm doing mighty fine thank you,
How about you?
Fancy a snooze?
Let's go to sleep right now x 3
Right now. Night now.
Hello.
Hello Pillow,
And what a shitter of a day.

rpm 2023
Janette Salisbury vocals
hands on top of the table
feet are flat on the floor
eyes are locked on the moment
you never saw before
merely a chance encounter
maybe a sign from above
and you’ll never feel this way
any more…
rpm 2023
Janette Salisbury vocals
taken none of my good years, darling
left me with more of the same
i will not ask you to give up nothing
there’s nothing left to explain
50 years and i’m dragging bottom
and live among the debris
whatever…
rpm 2023
Janette Salisbury vocals
we’re starving children, left alone
knocking on the door, but no one’s home
how many days have we been here
how any nights in the cold
praying that someone will answer
save our souls, save our souls…
In progress recording of "Oh Lord, Why'd You Have to Make Me So Goddamned Handsome?" which is my attempt at creating a ridiculously long song title. This recording still needs replacement vocals (these were always intended to be scratch temp vocals…
Draft recording, plan to add an acoustic at the beginning and possibly a melodica. The vocals will be re-recorded when I'm not sick. These were always intended to be a placeholder track.
6th song for my RPM album. If you like slow and depressing music...this is for you! I had a blast using my new crash cymbal and brushes...my fingers are not very pleased about playing the bass riff however (ouch).
somehow you knew me

Well said and well played. These times we are living in sure are something…..

Gotta love the Funk
An excellent song one of my favourites of yours
Yes
Yes yes
One from back in the day ….. you’ve done a good job with it
Love it like everything else you’ve done … I think you know I’m a fan it’s been a while
I heard….you Will…. No I Won’t …you will … NO! In fact I shan’t and the music played on
Dreamy !
Remembering a good night …Hi Snoop
Excellent!
Love it too
loving what i've heard from you so far ..I shall have to delve deeper when I have time
A laborious task but you’ve made it sound fun with the girl of your best friend
I don’t recognize the tune but I enjoyed it
That tremolo certainly sets the scene love it great chorus
Jannette can certainly sing another beauty loving those keys and smooth bass not forgetting the light touch of the drummer
Excellent vocal loving the tone effect on that guitar too and the interplay with the keys an excellent start to the album
that's some good picking....Ha!Ha ! I have the same trouble
sounds great just as is ....good luck with getting sober
the bass might of hurt but I believe it was worth it and that crash sounds great
