Reg?s clever and imaginative lyrics have earned him the title of ?Master Storyteller? (PennyBlack Music) and led Mike Harding to introduce him onto the stage of The Royal Albert Hall as ?one of the finest singer-songwriters this country has produced?. Whether it?s a village hall or the Albert Hall, Reg brings to the stage a collection of extremely beautiful songs, performed with humour and depth, and sung with the voice of an angel. Reg has that rare gift of being able to touch people, through his songs and performance, on a really human level. His words and music paint pictures that remain with the listener long after the song has been sung.


Receiving 5 star reviews across the board for his previous album Leaves & Feathers has been hailed by many to be Reg?s most accomplished. Given the consistency of quality of all his albums up to now, this one is a hard act to follow, but his new album England Green & England Grey rises to the challenge.


This new work deals with topics such as dementia, with a deep and moving commentary on the subject Counting My Footsteps To You; it commemorates the centenary of WW1, with an unromanticised account of the story of Flora Sandes (the only woman to fight in that war); it tells the tale of the bandleader and his violin both lost in the Titanic disaster, The Band Played Sweet Marie; and it delivers an anthem for our times: England Green and England Grey.


The maturity of Reg?s writing, and the courage with which he deals with some difficult topics, is revealed here. Reg is one of this country?s greatest songwriters at the very top of his game.

    • There is a spate of kid-on-kid robberies this time of year every year. It's as regular as the clocks changing or the leaves falling. Usually it's after school as kids are walking home. Often it's same little group of robbers that keep going until they (almost inevitably) get arrested. Very unpleasant for the victim. It should always be reported to police. I'm always happy to criticise the Met - but my impression is that the Community Safety Teams (beat cops) have always been very responsive to this kind of issue. It is worth speaking to them as well as just 999/101.
    • This sounds hellish.  Have you thought of contacting BBC local news, both TV and radio as well as the ITV local news?   There is a known shortage of midwives so it’s sad that you are having to stop work.  Woman’s Hour on Radio 4 would be another programme.   
    • Yet another recommendation for John and Gabi at Top Marx kitchens. Our very old built in fridge freezer broke and we could not find a suitable replacement that would fit the space.  John was able to come round very quickly and advise on the best course of action.  He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, timely and responsive....and a very nice guy.  Gabi is excellent at keeping the momentum going with booking appointment times etc.  I have no hesitation in recommending Top Marx Kitchens.  
    • No they’re playing with each other if they’re the two completely under control Stafford I see there regularly with their guy.
