This is a piece Norm and I collaborated on last year. We hope you will enjoy it.
two improvised 12 string guitar lines
bass line ( I took a few takes)
improvised piano
Norm's percussion in Tumbao rhythm
looks like something from my local biotanic garden,, is the color true? i like the feeling of this piece...not sure how to say it, but i like it..... go figure,,,,
They are noisy little bugs aren't they?
Nice rhythmic playing here Chris. beautifully done!
I have a fair sized collection of bugs and insects,
which I thought would interest the grand children one day, but of course, they can't be heard.
Oh, look at his dear little face!
Interesting chipping noises I heard in there.
A very vibration rich, most eerie, especially the long, fading note at the end.
is a mash featuring Benjamin Smith (piano), Paul Mimlitsch x 2 (bass recorder and bass clarinet), Lydia Busler-Blais (horn), and myself (percussion) – all tracks manipulated – the tuning is nominally 12 equal, however, there is enough pitch bending…
Ooo, I see this one is going to be an epic! headphones in place, ok go .....
That was a journey into the secret hive! Beautifully done. I can appreciate the work that goes into ambient music, too clever for me!
an ambient piece using 19 edo + harmonic series tuned synthesizers, 17 edo electric guitar, and unconstrained pitch metallic objects (I was allowed to sample a metal work shop).
there should be dialogs about these songs in chat areas on each page sometimes, betting that is what is going on at the site of yours where you post. :)

If the baby falls
The crib shall age empty
all of the earth
which ever lived
creation everyday
if the baby falls
it would leave the crib quite solo
The sources who join to nurture cries and giggles
Won't change diapers anymore
If our baby falls…
If the baby falls
The crib shall age empty
all of the earth
which ever lived
creation everyday

Won't change diapers anymore

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!!

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…

Thay sound real, are they? Well played!

Very nice

Trance inducing, love it
It certainly resonates! Are the delicate hammering noises the forge sounds? Then there are the buzzings! Or am I mistaken? This is very well done.
Weird and wonderful!
Different and interesting.
neat-0! Illegal Alien
Yes - I love it.
majestic!
Suspenseful and Interesting. M O R E W I N E

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!
wow! very cool - it sounds a lot like that picture especially towards the end.
