Based on Norm Harris' Percussion Solo Moonbathing http://alonetone.com/norm/tracks/moonbathing this piece uses bass pictured above after conversion to fretless and uses my fretless Fender Squire through the metallurgy 3 demo effect.

I have a story to tell. Debbie and I went to a Guitar Center across town looking for a cheap used bass for me to convert to fretless like I did my Squire Strat. Well.... I ran into a really nice used Ibanez 5 string bass - with a B below E…

This is a serial improvisational piece (excepting some drum loops) in John O’Sullivan’s Blue JI tuning (which I rather like) – all of the instruments, African log drum, Nigerian log drum, Krin slit drum, Teponaxtli, Toere, Kaekeeke, Kalaau…

Well, I finally got my hands on a 17 note per octave electric guitar thanks for Brad Smith, a local Luthier who did a lovely conversion of a Jay Turser strat copy I bought at the local Guitar Center for $65. The guitar is nicely very bright…

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…
a bit smaller in length, a bit more up lifting, at least it makes me feel like lifting my arms up into the air when i listen... WN is a dialogue between two sides, so i suppose this is the section where the angles get their say,,,, dedicated to…
More Original song than cover, I think.

Well, who do think came down the cellar last night... Yep! you guested it, Charlie Sheen, he was none too happy. He should have been if the girls with him were anything to go by. He'd come to talk to Elvis about handling the Yes men and how he…

Louis was back in the cellar last night and he was telling Reg how Blue he was and they got to jamming...............This morning i arrived at the cellar to find Bon was passed out in the corner....Dave was right with his guess....He could never…
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....

it is like playing to random computer musical notes. very well done.
It's like an Irish folk cinematic feeling:)
Like. Thanks for bringing my favorite Poe(m) to life!
This just reconstructed my mind and further more it's brilliant Chris!
very nice,, i am just starting to use the garritan po, think i'll look into the world samples,,,, very nice piece
*staring at his stat copy in the corner.....* do you need more notes lil' buddy? do you? ;) Really dig the sound!
Sounds a bit like Ravel's Bolero. How about a bit more volume on the music and a bit less on the percussion? John.
Very nice tune. but now you make me consider buying the Garritan World set too. ;-) These tuning capabilities in the new player are really awesome
Nice one Chris. Very pretty. Love the pipes and the percussion.

Thanks for doing this!!

sounds like early Who - excellent!!

I'm hating it too. Its just an infection I think. Nothing personal ;-)
