Norm has been teaching a master's class in percussion and gave me (a lot!!) of guidance to try to add bass properly to this. I added 5 string bass, Fender Mustang and GR-20 sax to his excellent Tumbao track. We hope you enjoy it.

Hey man I always open to ideas! I tried it and I am really glad I did! I was in a space today thinking "yeah but..." And I try not to get into that mode. Even though I might not always agree with an idea...It does not make them wrong. I spent to much of my life as an...well...an a**hole..it's something I feel I can always improve on, and always try to better myself as a human being and this strange rock we call earth. Did I make myself sound intelligent? Ha ha :) glad you liked it man.

My Life has Become
I have all of these memories
That come on back to me
I don't know what to do
I don't know what I should do with them
Out of nowhere they cover me...
Like a breaking beam of light
Like the star dust in the night
Like…
This piece is a digital remaster of a track done on 4-track cassette back in 1987 for the Modern Clones album.
Christ Killers
Take me in and We defy!
We destroy all life
We have no respect
We destroy all life
We are the Christ killers…
I bought a $50 Woods DW-15 acoustic dreadnought 12 note per octave guitar at Guitar Center, fret wire, and a fret saw.
After a couple days of work I made a usable 18 note per octave guitar.
Most of the details and lots of pictures are on my facebook…
East-West Choir went on sale and I received and installed my copy yesterday. So this is a quick improvisation for ImprovFriday. Boys choir, double bass, tuba, celesta, bass drum, timpani and electronics.

improvisation with pianoteq and hollywood strings
I am feeling like all of my improvisations sound the same again. I probably need to devote even more time to scoring - and building instruments.
Reg took a collaboration from Chris Vaisvil, Norm and threw it into the cellar last night and this is what was returned through Regs door this morning...... a tale from the old wild west.........................
Poor old Reg he cant figure it out!! ........ since he's been listening to his self help tapes to stop drinking he has never got any money and he just doesn't understand it, he keeps working coming home relaxing to the tape........... then when…
This traditional Cuban rhythm is the well established "go-to" pattern for 4/4 songs. It is perhaps the most commonly heard conga pattern in 4/4 music. The bongo pattern that accompanies the congas is referred to as "martillo" (the hammer…
Norm played the percussion first, which is a Bembe pattern; I couldnt help playing a melody and creating lyrics for this perc track. Thanks for the listen, Enjoy!
With all the highs in Regs life, it had to equal out and Reg has dropped like a stone ........he's broken.........he's had a breakdown.....Well let's face it. It had to happen he was just pushing himself too much. Hopefully he can carry on the…

my goodness - you've been pouring out music and stories - I can't keep up - I surrender the title of the most prolific composer ever to Reg :-)
Man - how did you get the Louis Armstrong voice - oh wow.....
And the rock opera people are right - think Rocky Horror Picture Show - if you could get together a script and a vision and sell it you could be set for life. There is no question about you having the talent to pull it off.

Funny, when I was going through divorce I ended up in a support group - and there was a late 50-ish ex-cop who showed up one day who complained about this young woman who talked him out of entire retirement savings for drugs. (You'd think he'd know better....) Trying to remember her name.... did it start with a D??? I was glad when he left - he apparently got tired of us when he found out we could barely make rent for the room in the church we met at Friday night....
