Mr. Jones' congregation is about 30 people strong. I wonder who is financing this whole bonanza. Armed sermons? Now there's a church for me.
Praise God and pass the bullets.

Well done. I'm all for free speech, but I question motives of those who want to burn books, flags, etc. for any "cause". I think the burner's seek attention for themselves more often than not.
Well, I had this crazy idea that *maybe* Buddy Guy was using some microtonal inflections in his cover of Tramp (which are what the "blue notes" are and thought it would be cool to cover it with my fretless guitar. As it turned out it was my ear…

Badass!! Feverish playing - I love it. This will suffer many, many listens from me - So glad it's a 320K mp3.
Norm, you rocked it, too - Brilliant percussion that is not overdone and fits in perfectly!

The story cracked me up. Your fretless guitar would be perfect for slide guitar, i'm learning slide some now , easy to do basic style but hard to be great at it as are all things.
Great vocal on this tune,i'm impressed.

Here it is baby: This is your best vocal work ever... not nearly as sexy as the sister's rendition (and I love the shock value of a girl singing this one – I really hope that gem gets posted too) but your enthusiasm is infectious and it brings me joy to hear you torturing your fretless guitar. Was that a bit of a laugh I heard at one point? Well, it works for you. Call me country…
Trap set? We don’t need no stinking trap sets. Tambourine, cajón and cymbals.

this song - purple mountains was iriginally a jam back in 75. chris vaisvil was the guitarist and i always remembered it cause i liked it. he had an echo-plex then and it was pretty psychedelic. no keys were originally in the song but it was a…
Elvis got philosophising in the cellar again last night.........................so Louie and Reg got Bluesy with him and this is what turned out of the session.........
DREAMER(Lyrics)
Well I asked the mirror if my dreams would come true…
You'll never guess who turned up last night but the old Baird himself ....Will....Him and Louie jumped up to do this one for the cellar crowd...........
rockin!!
If you are on facebook be sure to look up xenharmonic alliance and join your fellow microtonalists. I posted a link to your music there already.
All the best,

Oh - don't forget the contest!

Intentional or not you sound like a 78 rpm record - it is like listening to folk song from the 30's - that is very cool. I like you composition and obviously the production.
Reg has been thinking he's fed up with all this celebrity crap.......the emperor is naked can't you see..........
CELEBRITY STRIFE (Lyrics)
I’ve said this once
I’ve said this twice
I don’t give a damn about the celebrities life
About who…
Celebrities at one time were paid to live the life the audience wouldn't dare to live. That was the real entertainment.
Its like the fake preacher at the entrance of the Renaissance fair who was on a tree stump yelling "Don't go in - it will make you a sinner! Inside is just sin! You will go to Hell if you go inside!" And I shouted back - "What if I pay you to go in and sin for me?" He stopped a moment looking thoughtful and then said "How much will you pay me?"
They were Black and Blue but finally Elvis got up and did his stint in the Live in the Living room fest....................................it was good practice for his strumming, cause by god does he need it.....but no one dare tell him…
The energy levels were at an all time high this weekend when Bon and jimi turned up down the Cellar for a session. Here's a little something from the session........... Reg'n'Roll...other Reg really blisters the guitar on this one
OH WHAT A…
Reg got reminiscing tonight down in the cellar and decided to cover this classic by dear old Rodney..............the piano needs a bit of work....but hey at least i'm trying ...at least i've found out what a F sharp minor is this evening and that…
Oh well, nothing like going to a middle school music function to break writers block, all those posters and flare about achievement...
Special thanks to my sons middle school band, The Preston Pumas playing at the end !
jqscutt posted the acoustic guitar track looking for ideas, not sure if it turned into the genre he was looking for :)
The auuuggga horn sound was another classic unplanned phone interruption during the vocal recording but it seems to fit in…
For the daughters of two of my favorite people.
Bonfire Lullaby
Dannah studies my hands while I play
With heavy eyes at the end of a runaround day
Fading fast ‘neath a summer night’s sky
No need to wonder why
Time stands still in her…
Keith - this is lovely - not only the song / guitar / vocals but also the sentiment and the slice of real life. This is a definition of beauty and serenity and... Love.
It was busy down the cellar tonight.....someone slipped something into Reg's and Jim's drink........now their out there trying to find the gold for the mind from the other side..........we tried to stop them but you know what their like when they…
Reg has put into words want he wants do and why...............
I WANT TO SING
I don't want to be like you or you
I just want to be like me
so i’m going inside myself, to try and figure, the whole thing out
the whole thing out
So i can jump…
Well reg was down the cellar last night watching re runs of Saturday night Live http://www.videolog.tv/video.php?id=503192 that Chris and Norm had sent him and they gave Reg an idea which John who sat quietly watching approved off..........it…

Yes, I can see why you wanted to cover this Chris. A great performance all round.
this one is so very cool!! everything
very cool!
Wild! :D
it's one of these songs you'd wish they'd go on and on.. most excellent!
Badass!! Feverish playing - I love it. This will suffer many, many listens from me - So glad it's a 320K mp3. Norm, you rocked it, too - Brilliant percussion that is not overdone and fits in perfectly!
Damn! That guitar work is as raw and tortured sounding as it gets. Very cool! I'm gonna go rub some salt in an open wound now!
:)
Rrrrrrr!!!!! You're a growly lover! Buddy would be proud. :-) This is the definitive AT cover, guys. Chris's vision, as it should be! Nice one!
Gritty, raw, cool Tramp tribute. I think the fretless guitar is excellent. perc matches the raw feel.
There's certainly a kernel of something really good here. I'll stay tuned!

Badass, yawl. I can attest BG is microtonal having seen him, his strings bends are often slightly sharp, an amazing gtrist when he wants to be.
I'm digging this raw riff, actually the whole piece is raw...nice!
Nice tune, sounds like Jimmy Page material

Everything I like. Distorted guitars, solid bass line, serious percussion, Hardly a train wreck Sir. It rocks.
Perfect ending!!

You read poetry very well! Enjoyed!

nice - is this in 19edo?
nice BP piece!! What are you using for your microtonal setup? And welcome fellow microtonalist!!

oh this is awesome with Elvis doing this!!
excellent work all around! We should call you Mr. Music!
Did you gargle with the obligatory razor blades before the take? Excellent cover!
Brilliant!!
didn't hear the phone the 1st time around but I love the singing and lyrics.
Keith - this is lovely - not only the song / guitar / vocals but also the sentiment and the slice of real life. This is a definition of beauty and serenity and... Love.
Did you two find the mushrooms? :-)
Your vocals keep getting better and more "Reg" with every song - its great to listen to !
I think Steve Hackett is very under appreciated. I can't understand why.
great production and concept - I'm with Bethan on this.
I like this version a lot! Nice key work - great vocals as well!
