My mother died of alzheimer's four years ago now by the time she died her memories had all but gone and she had no knowledge of who I was but for fleeting moments when she would recognise me and squeeze my hand and I would hug her. This is a song…

I walk these city streets alone
footsteps from behind dance out the time
Murmmers of truth hang in the air
As I roam down the Boulivard
Lost within the beat, echoing from the…
I’ve thought it before, but I don’t know if I commented, best album cover of the year or right there for me. It’s cool that you actually saw the Led Zeppelin building
Thought it before, but don’t know if I commented, this album, cover photo wins and down for me. I can’t believe you actually got a pic the physical graffiti building. It looks the same!
Well guess what it was raining again and Reg was bored so he got Tom on the phone out of the workshop... god knows what he was creating in there and got him to lay down a vocal for him. Rainy days are the worst.....

*Pilón* reveals a Cuban pattern, traditionally played on Timbales, but in this case on Jr. Congas & Congas (with gated reverberation and flanger effect). The rhythm of Pilón is based on the motions of pounding sugar cane.

At one point, I had a version recorded with much better guitar -- at least I thought I did -- but I can't find it now...
Another one of those tunes that kept growing after the demo was laid down, this song now has twice as many verses as you…

Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.

Song #2 for the RPMC. My goal is to have 12 short tunes (1-3 minutes long), so I need to pick up the pace.
Again, quartal tuning on the top 3 unison pairs of the 12 string. I've been listening to Ralph Towner's Blue Sun, hence the title.
When nostalgia and regret collide, we get "Bright Lights Shine".....
Lyrics:
Drove six hours, landed in Pittsburgh
Cold and tired, by the Alleghany…
Comments on thetworegs's stuff
What an incredible song. I’m sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is a terrible part of our lives.
yes sir.
One of your best compositions. It’s a strangely compelling story with the protagonist worthy of a Darwin Award.
There is a brutality to this that is uncannily beautiful. It finished playing minutes ago but is still spinning in my head in more ways than one.
Holy wow!
Wow! Is this what I imagine? What a terrible thing to witness
^Norm
This sort of got me in the feels. Nice work.
Wow.
