Here's another contribution to the RPM this year Track 02....Reg is starting to realize whats important in his life.....
LOOKING WANTING NEEDING LOVE
Been a puppet, a pirate, a poet, a king
a rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
i lived…
Wha wha wha wha wow! Tasty! Diging the gravely voice, the guitar and effects, the lyrics... a great way to start my morning -- that is, your new song AND this cup of coffee right here... ;)

Here is my contribution to the Cherry Pie project of Greg's ....I had started it with the intention of a collaboration with Geas ...but i went down the pub tonight and watched a gig down there and came back a bit over excited..as i haven't had…
Of all the versions of this sweet song, this one is the most unique. Digging all the craziness, especially that twisted wah wahing lead guitar -- delicious!!!

I wrote these lyrics in response to the tragedy that happened in Paris this week and i put them up in a response to a song by Geo's (Dobrodaddy) track in memory of slain innocence and Geo responded with voice and guitar, i added a backing vocal…

The lyrics speak to me. The vocal delivery got me in the guts. The strumming was delicate yet powerful. This number is full of emotion – it really reaches. I suggest you leave it as it is, a musical photograph of your bruises and wounds at the time. Anything added or edited after this would be Photoshopping (or, what I like to call "Photo-chopping").
I heard Wildgeas track Erase the Breeze on alonetone earlier and this came to me straight away so i had to get both sides of Reg on this one.. and kick it out while i had a little time ….hope you enjoy…Thanks Paul
I need to feel real real Love…

A lil rocker influenced by some of my faves, Springsteen, Petty etc.. well i left my home and family
and made my way out west
i lost my job at the steel mill
im a hoping for the best
in this life
for my kids and wife
just outside of Davenport…
As if I was a tree,
And would stand in the woods,
Taking the rain and the snow.
As if I was a tree,
Standing in the field,
Looking at the eternal movement of the clouds.
As if I was,
as if ...
Next in the little pile of songs from the shoe-box. This one has the date 27th January 1994 written on it, but it's describing an episode from many years earlier when I was, I'm guessing, something like 12 or 13 years old.
I had to go to a…
What beautiful melody . ....a great image is formed from you're lyrics....you must have looked like little lord fontalroy in you suit and shiny shoes I know I did when we went to the family occasions ....a beauty of a song....
Every cranky middle aged guy's theme song in a way. Nothing fancy, craptastic (tm) keyboard drums, a couple guitar tracks and some yelling and complaining.
This is a piece written for the Linux Musicians Uncompetition (http://www.linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10331).
The purpose of such un-competition is making some music with Linux tools, and then share it.
The premise for this…
Gary and I did something good.
ONE AND ONLY
How many times have you been captured by a camera
With no one really knowing who you are
Caught in the sight lines in the background
In the corner of their eyes
Never looking closely at the…

Holding down the borders
What's mine is yours
Folding down the corners
Of pages meaning more
Walking on the wire

rpm #7,, i think this will be the overture, to a small midi orchestral suite, which i hope will finish up as my remaining 3 pieces for this years rpm, but well see how that goes,, thanks for all the helpful comments i have received on this project…
I must be one .....nobody visits me .......I must be a visitor .......the French say there are those that hold there cheek and others that kiss........I'm a kisser now than doesnt sound so bad ...as long as its not ass.....
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
now where did i put that bottle of Rum...i've got the mint and the ice cubes............Damn i drank it already.....mint and ice just doesn't cut it but this tune certainly does ....great collab chaps ...i'll be back when i get another bottle......
well this is a bit awkward, but i have been chatting with Nosda Cariad about the various plus and minus of sound settings ie reverb,,, sometimes i feel like i have used too much, as sort of a crutch. in this version the reverb has been toned down…

Nice exercise, writing a song before you go out. It's a good one too! *Well Done*
Of all the versions of this sweet song, this one is the most unique. Digging all the craziness, especially that twisted wah wahing lead guitar -- delicious!!!
Just ROCK the Hell ON!! That's some hot sauce lead guitar! This is my flavor what I call Hard Core Blues!
Very good listen, enjoyed this!
Yes. Hits the spot.
wow - I've not heard this tone in your voice before - excellent music, lyrics, and lovely slide work!

I like this one! The arrangement of chords, the strumming technique, and the lyrics, the energy of the vocals -- it all works for me!
Love it! Great rendition!
Love it Reg!
Cool lyrics! Kind of haunting... Thanks for sharing!!
