The realtors always disliked showing the old Victorian house on Layton Way. It gave them a creepy, clammy feeling. Especially in the basement where mad whispers and the sound of metal working off in the distance could sometimes be almost heard…
The music is quite fitting in consideration of the description of the house for which this sound file is named -- and I love it! I enjoy a creepy, haunting recording when handled with taste and mix down mastery, as evident here. Truly enjoyed every spooky second, especially when the voice came in!
This is a little piece dedicated to the lost world island of Socotra that grabs a lot of instrumentation from across Asia with little discrimination - the melodic instruments use Afshari with the exception of the Jaw harps which use 9-tET Sorog.
This is an improvisation around a few chords I found when experimenting with two simultaneous tunings on my Fender Mustang run through the GR-20 retuned to Arabic 17 note Pythagorean tuning and also as-is through my DoD FX-7
The way this…
We forgot to mention that Reg visited Norm's place a little later and added some vocals. The video is a ride through the US state of Virginia. The Texas Tavern serves cheesy westerns (cheese, fried egg, burger, bun) in the downtown of Roanoke Va.
Reverie by Claude Debussy arranged for piano, violins, and violas.

I was listening to Andy Casson's song Old ladies over on Songcrafters and it got Reg thinking........... could this be the last song i ever hear................so Reg went down the cellar to write a one chord song using only the notes that make…
Bob and Reg got together tonight down the cellar and came up with this one dedicated to Desirea......Reg didn’t realise at the time but Desirea had got her hooks into Bob as well during her time down the cellar....but hey, all's well in love and…
a song about hoping for the best for all of us. the ending riff is about angst and disapointment and i use a flange on the ending lead guitar work. the closing of the song inspired me to make another song called locked door to my soul.
performed by Ashley Reynolds
from the album "Sunny, sorta..."
and she opened her eyes
the frailness all gone
but she wasn’t surprised
it was fortold all along
and the healing complete
not a shell anymore
what a magical feat…
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...........

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 !

I dig the Classic Rock sound and got a kick out of the lyrics, and the vocals were fun.

Interesting -- intriguing, actually. Dark, bitter, thorny. I stayed tuned all 7 1/2 minutes, and I come back for another hearing -- it's captivating.
The Monks are loose.....
Loving this too....
Loving this one Chris.....perfect as I'm sat sorting photographs from yet another wedding not mine I might add....
Snoopy visits the Middle East!
A nice Celtic feel.
Very peaceful and interesting.
I like how you separate the pieces on 1:28 and add/take bouncy sounds. great!
Looking through i found this one i'd forgotten all about....we should get the gang back and do some more
That's a unique scale the lead guitar is wielding about! What a psychedelic, groovy, tripping number. Keep grooving!
Alert me when it's finished.
Loved it
so very intense I like this very much..
Yeah, sounds kind of lonely! I nominate Trev! Cheers Bee
Sounds quite exciting so far. Cheers Bee
Surreal! That was fun. The music gave Lewis's scene the right flavor!
I love that!!You can make me a gorgeous backing track if you like! Just saying! Cheers Bee :)
That's the voice that used to read my bedtime stories...and this one was a favourite. Thanks for capturing a very happy memory, guys. x
