this is a 15 minute excerpt of my first successful aeolian harp experiment. As you can see from the picture I strung 50 pound fishing line from my deck to my fence. I used piezo pickups clamped to the end of the lines to capture the sound. The…

A field recording of an improvisation on a baby grand incongruously placed between an entrance and coffee hut via my phone. My good friend Jim Goodin converted the AIFF I emailed him and he posted it for me. Thanks Jim!
Reg threw Norms 7th son in the Cellar tonight and it wasn't long before young Johny Cash had jumped all over it.................

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…

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.

powerful and pleasant as well.

That's really rather effective. Not easy-listening, but moving.
