Strange Times is an international collaboration between Roger Harris & myself. Roger initiated the idea with the first verse and chorus along with a chord progression. I added the last verse and took some liberty in producing this version…
This may be one of my favorite turns of yours. Love the bluesy cool feel. And the lyrics are so good!!! The guitar work is wonderful. I love that slide thingy. An instant fav
You're producing some awesome music there Greg! Thank goodness that winter weather is gone indeed. Always love your harmonica. I bet Rita loves this one too!!!!
Hey how did you know it's raining here!!! perfect song today. Is that an accordion on the chorus? Sounds great....love the lyrics and the whole feel of this one.....cheers me up while on lock-down!!!!
hope all is well with you and Rita!!!

HEAR MY FINAL SONG

Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair

One day as I was turning into my driveway I saw Rita on her porch. She's a lot like me.

Al was a smoker. He's dead now, of course
Al has Alzheimer's. Alcohol made it worse

If it makes you happy I will tickle you
If it makes you happy I'm telling you true

If it makes you happy I will wiggle my ears…
I'd been following the Euro horsemeat scandal since it broke in the UK some time ago. But the songwriter in me didn't react until Ikea found pony in their Swedish meatballs the other day.

It has been a salty year for me, performing with a great sea shanty group in Saint Petersburg. I've written a number of sea songs this year, and this one especially for the 2014 holiday season.

He told her to meet him at Adams's Springs
He would bring her some money…

Great way to start the New Year
Ah . . . Good Times!
Now the blood is pumping!
Short and Sweet. Good message.
Very Smooth! Let's hope the new year comes in that way too!
*AND NOW THAT I'M LOGGED IN* . . . . . It looks like I have accidently added a little humor as well.
Sad and beautiful at the same time. A good look into the lives we lead.
I love this! I wish I had heard it before we put the other version up. I completely missed it until now.
It will be fun to hear when the other parts come in. Merry Christmas Gene!
I just toured your website. Wow . . . That's an impressive life.
*Smiling*. By the end of this.
I had to stop by for another taste of this.
*Oh* . . . . . . This is good! You hit the spot with this one.
Ahhhhhhhh . . . Now I'm in the Christmas Spirit!
Pretty Song!
Nice beat. Interesting texture to the song.
Ahhhhhhh . . . . I've missed you.
Just found this! What a treat!
Excellent! Well done to both of you! Great story.
