Here's my submission for the songwriting challenge for MN Homebrew for April - playing off of theme of the Beatles hit song "Here Comes The Sun". It's also an ode to spring here in the northland of MN!!! We were in shorts this weekend. Hooray…

Wow! That turned out pretty good.
It's such a great song, and I think we captured some of that.
I like the was the bridge turned out with just your voice and uke.

I wrote the lyrics to this song a couple of weeks ago while thinking of personal reflections. I figured out the melody just in time to head down to Greg Connor's MN coffee table and get he and Mark Lofgren's great voices and guitars on it with…

Hello friends!
I'm happy to submit this studio version of a song I wrote in early spring. It became the title track for my latest EP release of 5 songs. I hope you enjoy it!
Thanks to everyone who has listened and given feedback. I…
Glad to get some inspiration from new friends and an old video of Jackson Browne's speech accepting his induction into the rock and roll hall of fame.... As usual a first draft and a rough cut, but glad to be feeling the muse again...

Keep me close and afraid
Keep me wandering for days
Keep me exactly the same
Keep me docile and tired
Keep me angsty and wired
Keep me faking the pain
Keep me loose and contained
Keep me close and afraid
Keep me wandering for days…
There is a story behind this song. I'll leave it at that for now.

Lyrics and Chords:
Winter Solstice
Written by Greg Connor
When the G days are short, and the C evening’s so D long
And the C wind is D shaking the G trees
When the cold snow crunches C beneath your D feet
And your C cheeks are D…
A simple song in Open D.
It's a cold, and frosty night,
Stars are shining,
Shining bright.
A wintry breeze, through the trees,
Stoke the fire,
Beat the freeze,
It's a winter's tale.
Mull the wine, and cook the fare,
The larder…

It's been a long absence from a regular daily practice of song writing. Covid and a major change in the family has distracted me for well over a year. Recently I've been lucky enough to drift back into old familiar things like wine soaked evenings…

as they say... "Damn you're good!!!" another masterpiece. I love the lyrics and that haunting picking on the lead parts... and the Greg harmonies!!! Fabulous indeed
