This was a write it and record it in one session song challenge that my songwriting friends and I came up with this week. Lions and Lambs was started thinking of spring, but it turned into a song about relationships... as they often do.

This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…

I agree with Greg -- it is indeed like Paul's recording was made for you. The lyrics ROCK! I dig the mix own of multiple vocal tracks -- great job. Gonna play it again right now!

Nicely done Colleen! Pretty melody and a really resonant situation with different meaning for everyone. Traveling alone is really big idea! Thanks for sharing it.

Well, soon the new EP will be complete, featuring Jessica (the REAL talent in the family), but as with earlier songs, I thought y'all might like to hear what it sounded like when it first entered the world.
Meet me at The Narrows, ya'll.
Just got my system up again after several hardware upgrade conflicts, and a move to California.
Been thinking about changing this songs ending for a while, finally getting around to it. Good to post here again!
Cheers,
Reef
Been busy revising....but hey!! i passed.....
JUST LIKE THE 70’S
Everybody knows that the 70‘s rocked man
That rock stars where made of gold
Everybody knows everyone was plugged in
the music played with everyones soul
Everyone knows everything…
When I was in college my room mate told me a STORY about a traveler who arrived at the gates of a city in a strange land. Seeing a beggar at the gate he gave him a coin and asked him a question: "What kind of people will I find in your city…
An original song I made up. I used quite a few layers of guitar work, I'm sure you can hear my acoustic 12 string which I love to bits.... Une de mes compos perso. J'ai utilisé plusieurs guitares, je suis sûr que vous pouvez entendre ma guitare…
Another Sunday afternoon project . . . this has been sitting around unfinished for a while and so has my Alonetone account, so I recorded & uploaded this original song. All sounds by me.
1st Verse:
I'm just passing through, doing what…
Caught up in the recent political events, ISIS suicide bombers and pedifiles being protected by clergy . . . all on the evening news.
All guitar parts performed on my hand made Kapke Archtop Guitar made by my friend Damon Kapke.
There…
Feeling in love Grin no better feeling .... Tried drums bass rhythm guitar and even a bit of lead oh ! and not forgetting the organ....but jumped in a bit too early at the start but hey!! i'm trying...Thanks for listening
Something new here. Tilden Barger offered to arrange and produce this song. Tell me what you think.
Written by Greg Connor
Arranged and Produced by my friend Tilden Barger
A Piece of Pi is our newest composition. It’s a brief summary of the story “Life of Pi”. A wonderful story needs a wonderful song. Hopefully we can meet this challenge and find like-minded people out there.
My light-hearted take on a serious issue.
Over- prescription of powerful and addictive drugs, and the unknown and (to some) worrying relationship between doctors and the drug companies.

Lyrics:
Down by the riverside, autumn wind blows cold
The river just keeps rolling by with just a hint of snow
I continue standing here, where did you go
Ain’t no use to worry, some things I’ll never know
Last thing that you told me…
A bit of a musical kinda song.....
I DID WRONG
Counting on my fingers, counting on my toes, the years go by, but life is so slow
where life leads, to where it goes ,where it’s heading, no one really knows
But a small mistake a wrong place…
Comments on Colleen Dillon's stuff
Oh yes!
Crickey! That's how you start the challenge right there! Absolutely.. Better start listening!
Excellent. Oozing charm. Love the lyrics
Authentic rootsy treat. Congrats all
Nice early 80s touch.. Enjoying stuff like this at the most. Great synth
One of my favs. You did a wonderful vocal melody for this tune. This song JAMS!
Ah . . . It's this song that Paul remixed. It has a little more reverb on your voice. It mixes with the music perfectly.
Is this the song that Paul remixed? It sounds good.
I agree with Greg -- it is indeed like Paul's recording was made for you. The lyrics ROCK! I dig the mix own of multiple vocal tracks -- great job. Gonna play it again right now!
Great song, Colleen. Your instincts were spot on with this collab.
Excellent . . . It's like this music was made for your lyrics. Great lyrics Colleen Nice music Paul!
nice job ...very creative adding lyrics and melody to an existing recording....hmmmm...Lennon and Dillon...has a nice familiar ring!!!!
I just remembered our "Group Photo". I'll bet these guys would like to see all the pretty girls.
Nice! Because you're baaaaaaahd!! So many layers of the season in this one!:)
Nicely done Colleen! Pretty melody and a really resonant situation with different meaning for everyone. Traveling alone is really big idea! Thanks for sharing it.

Somehow we'll have to find a way to have a virtual jam session one day. Ron and Gene can come to MN!
this may be your best yet.....I love the mandolin....Greg's guitar is awesome...all around great sound, vocals and lyrics
Great job, guys! Y'all make me want to move to Minneapolis. Is it all that snow that makes y'all such talented musicians and songwriters?
Lots of Fun !!!
