A homage to Steve Hackett (who wrote this piece)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Hackett
This is played using John O'Sullivan's Blue JI tuning. Pianoteq and Kontakt didn't play nice together so I had add 4.81 cents to all of the flute notes.
Fantasy for Piano in 25 Note per Octave Tuning is a short piece I composed in Sibelius 7 using Pianoteq 4 in 25 note per octave (edo) tuning. This composition was created per a request in the Xenharmonic Alliance as a response to my piece in…
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…

Such an incredible mix of sounds. It felt like a junkyard in space. Then when the music came in I thought it fitted really well, music all in bits like the gramaphones. Ooo, the swaying from one ear to the other at the end is effective too.
The Metaphysical Evaporation of Wells Street is an ambient piece devised by mashing Summer Sky by Paul H. Muller, Sweeping the Clouds by Lydia Busler-Blais, I Half Remember Why I Got the Blues by Steve Layton, Blue Mountain by Diego Monroy…

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...........
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…
Comments on vaisvil's stuff
every body polka.
One of your oriental flavoured pieces Chris. Well played, it must be difficult. I like the way it boings at the end!
Nice playing Chris..........
Just wait until Pepé Le Pew gets a load of her!!
Purrrrfectly performed!
Great feel! Great playing! (Can't read much info about this track as the link seems to be broken.)
I love this!
Lovely! Well played Chris!
parts of this remind me of something from Michael Hedges' taproot album.... nice track!
Ooo, well played!
Nice warm groove.
Now that's cool
well Chris, i find this rather interesting,
This has inspired me to get my guitar out :)

Such an emotive piece. Beautifully performed. The ending is very different from the main part, almost like a new beginning.
An excitingly mysterious ride, perfectly formed.
Mighty cover!!!
Excellent cover great vocals Reg.
great track!
