Pretty mandolin. This is another one of my favorites of yours. I bet there are a few in that group might even tell Eric Clapton that his chords need to be simpler...this is lovely

Ooohhh.... I remember you playing this one around the coffee table once before. I love this one so much! I'm guessing this one is on your CD! I've got to go download that right now...
Love it. I get a total sense of how great that hiking is without having to throw my back out of joint schlepping a heavy pack, soaking my aching feet, or providing culinary delights for the Minnesota State Bird!
Great to hear your new music here!!! I know that trail well and you've captured it perfectly here. I love the lyrics (as usual) - shout out to vibrate soles!!

Here we go.
This one started out one morning several weeks ago when the sun was still shining...
If it's as wet and dark as it is here, just close your eyes, I'm sure you can imagine it if you try hard enough...
Lollies, chips, and beer…
Oh,
Iron jaws, wrapped around my legs,
Try to gnaw, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Oh,
Fresh cut gauze, soaking lips,
Trying not to fall, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Silent pines, know my name
Even…
Old timey'st of versions. reminiscent of a deserting war warn civil war solder heading back to see a lady left behind. Close your eyes and try to smell the camp fire and burned coffee.
Just in time for the big 2012 election!
*** BANJO WARNING ***
Just me and me banjo.
Inspired by a story my journalist daughter in Moscow just published. She was too small when we moved to Russia to remember that politicians shaking hands…
I love it Robert! Your song is like a breath of fresh air. Well done my friend!
The banjo sounds fantastic, and by the way, I thought the *"BANJO WARNING"* WAS A NICE TOUCH.
This is the result of a songwriting challenge that Andy took part in on a songwriting forum he uses
We were all given the same lyrics and then sent away to see what came back and see how different the results would be in styles etc ,
There's…
I was going to get another cup of coffee this morning, but I don't think I need it now!
Freight . . . you can really get all the jelly beans rolling in the same direction. Nice going!
Here's a new one, heard a saying on an advert, 'your home isn't a home unless... ' Out popped this, right let's see what you've all been up to lately, had a few days off. Catch up time.
I've been messing about with my virtual keyboard this week, in preparation of an amazing collaboration I'll be working on soon :)
Beat and sax are from Mixcraft.
Enjoy! xox
Virtual Keyboard? That is something I know nothing about, but I must say you have produced an incredible track here!
The whole thing, vocal and music, is captivating.
Good one Lady! I'm looking forward to your collaboration.
Wonderful Lyrics, and a *GREAT* message!
Right on Brother! Sometimes I wonder how we ever made it through our teens & 20's.
Now we are more or less respectable and still here. Go Figure!
This is the third, maybe forth time I recorded this tune.
I like this one best.
taken by surprise
a fine disguise
they came from across the sea
always moving closer
my eyes could see
then they called in the calvary
First just a…
I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…
Mrs R is right . . . *"It's ready"*
You have acomplished what many can not; Offer a complete thought in a succinct manor.
Nice going Andrew! You make it sound easy.
Another one jip1965 sent to me for playing with!
Silent and magical
Calming and practical
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Filtering through the air
Twinkling in our hair
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Dancing on the leaves of trees
Shaking…

I really like the lyric sentiment.
I love it that you're doing mandolin. I want to do more with it myself but it is PAINFUL!! (Not to mention tuned in blasted 5THS!!

Beautiful. "Just a couple flakes of snow and you'll be on my mind."
This is a real feel good song to me...perfect for a quiet morning and my coffee!! guitar sounds great
Like it!
Great bluesy song Greg. The rhythm carries you along the trail as if you're really there. Super!
Love it. I get a total sense of how great that hiking is without having to throw my back out of joint schlepping a heavy pack, soaking my aching feet, or providing culinary delights for the Minnesota State Bird!
Out dah dah outstanding Me gabrellas were dancing to this one
Very Nice Lyrics especially if you are a hiker on that trail.
Great to hear your new music here!!! I know that trail well and you've captured it perfectly here. I love the lyrics (as usual) - shout out to vibrate soles!!
Oh yeah!! outstanding..I love when you show your bluesier side...can't wait to hear this album...vinyl or CD? :-)
I like this song.
Nice picking

Yay!!!! Love this one Greg. Sorry it took me a bet to give it a good listen. Congrats on creating and producing this album. It's a fantastic work of art!

Super tight acoustic string band, nicely mixed!
Comments made by Greg Connor
Key of G . . . I was playing right along with my trusty harmonica.
Great *"Feel Good"* Song. Makes me want to fill the car up and take a drive.
I love the sound of acoustic guitar. Nice song, nice singing, and nice playing! It reminded me a little of David Wilcox.
That Whistle . . . Wow!
Good Easy Listening! Way to go Roger!
Yes . . . I can smell the campfire!
I love it Robert! Your song is like a breath of fresh air. Well done my friend! The banjo sounds fantastic, and by the way, I thought the *"BANJO WARNING"* WAS A NICE TOUCH.
Delightful
I like these "Story Songs".
Damn Straight! That's Telling them. This should keep us till the new song appears.
Beautiful. It flows well and the music really supports the lyrics well. I have to admit . . . I was looking for at least one *"GOOD GAWD"* in there.
*Ooooh! You are a softy Roger!*
I was going to get another cup of coffee this morning, but I don't think I need it now! Freight . . . you can really get all the jelly beans rolling in the same direction. Nice going!
Go get um Fran! Great Song / Great Delivery You two sound like you are having fun.
Virtual Keyboard? That is something I know nothing about, but I must say you have produced an incredible track here! The whole thing, vocal and music, is captivating. Good one Lady! I'm looking forward to your collaboration.
I just had to push the "PLAY" button again. That guitar sounds pretty good.
Wonderful Lyrics, and a *GREAT* message! Right on Brother! Sometimes I wonder how we ever made it through our teens & 20's. Now we are more or less respectable and still here. Go Figure!
Big subject and big sound to match. Well done! I think Tess is on to it, turn up the voice track a little. Harmonica is a nice touch.
Mrs R is right . . . *"It's ready"* You have acomplished what many can not; Offer a complete thought in a succinct manor. Nice going Andrew! You make it sound easy.
I see what jip1965 is talking about. The song has a touch of melancholy (at least to my ears). Very inviting. Good one Lady!
