SLAUGHTER MOUNTAIN
My mom’s dad was a coal miner. Her mother died of TB when she was a kid. When he was twelve, her dad, dying of black lung, slit his throat with a butcher knife. That left her with a cripple little brother to take care of…
Sometimes life tends to repeat itself if you're not careful.... Good to find a moment to recognize old patterns and shake them off.
Great help on this one from the MN Coffee Table Gang - Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, and Mark Lofgren…
for Gene's contest...great title and inspiration!!
“How To Assemble Your Android”
Yesterday a box of parts came to my front door
I thought she came assembled, ready to be my whore
Tore the box apart and to no one’s surprise I was missing…
Going back through some of the oldies and goodies and found this one! What a fun time we all had. still a classic to be sure. I hope this finds you well and enjoying life! All my best!!!
A friend got me excited about writing short instrumentals for Video, TV etc and posting them on Pond5 ( A site catering to that type of thing). I recorded this little banjo piece this morning.
What a fantastic song and lovely arrangement. I am drawn in by the beautiful imagery and poignant singing style. An instant fav! A message to live by indeed.
I never sing this song the same two times in a row.
The lyric below is pretty close to how I sing it now.
I PLAY C
I play a C. I play a G
Then I play an Am because it sounds so sweet
I work hard. I get tired
Then I go home to my woman…
So sweet.. and I relate sooo well. I only had three, but birthing them in 4 yrs, they seemed double that in number at times. And we were a share the bed family too. I played my guitar and sang for them to put them to sleep. I still have memories of the peace that held for me, and I think for them. Gwyn Henry

I wrote this one yesterday. A little something to bring hope for the future.... there's always time to begin anew.
Thanks to Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren for their wonderful guitars and vocals on this one - recorded yet again around my kitchen…
Very nice song. I don't know you guys, but this song makes me think that your kitchen is probably an enjoyable place to just sit around. Thank you for the moment of calm.
Fender mustang, effects, sound effects (including freesound.org dcaudio interior walla...) and archive.org The Big Clock trailer and some homegrown stuff. And drone video.
