Steve (SLKrell) and I have been competing over the same *"IMAGINARY"* girlfriend for years now.
And Yep . . . Steve started it. Well she's mine now, at least until Steve writes the next song. Look for Steve's music here:

Gene didn't say this, but I'd like to think that he wanted to make sure that Steve heard every word clearly.
Thanks Gene!

You guys are hilarious. You put so much heart and soul into putting a professional, classy musical track to some crazy silly lyrics. Y'all are so lovable. No wonder Rosie is so torn between you and Steve -- but y'all better watch it. I heard a rumor that some guy name Ron might start making moves on that gal.

Oh, Greg, you are brilliant. A master songwriter with a tasteful ear for what genre and instruments and style go with the lyrics, which you are also great at. Very pleasing, and much fun. I'm with Ron -- how do you do it?!

I Can't Seem To Find My Way Home
Featuring Norm on Percussion Track: "Pilón For A New Son"

Lyrics:
Searching for something
I wonder and roam
Hoping the truth
Soon will be shown…
LYRICS:
With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…

First Day of the 2024 RPM challenge .... so here is Song 1
I'm experimenting with my old analogue synth (Prophet 6) this year
Thanks to anyone who listens! A gloomy song for gloomy times. Onward!
One day
You’ll find
It’s over, it’s over…
It’s fun to find you again for RPM. It’s like coming across an old friend. I’ve listened to your first three RPM entries. I’m noticing a theme and you are off to a great start. Good luck/Have Fun.
It's now 12:00 am....so Song 2 for RPM is as done as it will be!
In this tune I'm experimenting with vocal layering and using my analogue synth (my guitar and piano are giving me the skunk-eye). Thanks again for anyone listening out there…
3rd Song for RPM. Getting this done was filled with late night torture.
You tried so hard
You tried so hard
But you’re not there
You’re not there
You’re not there
You’re not there
You made your way
Oh you made your way
But…
Another Minnesota Coffee Table Song! Written and recorded “live” in one evening.
Memories: Written and performed by John Bennet, Joe Passofaro, Mark Lofgren, Colleen Dillon & Greg Connor. Listen to Minnesota Homebrew Radio w/ Carl Unbehaun…
After Greg Connor wrote this for me a while back, I kept listening to it every time I was feeling tired of winter, which at this time of year is several times a day. Somehow every time I listened to it, it reminded me of my dad. I know he would…
Uploaded just in time for the 2013 peak of the Perseid meteor showers of 2013, which I definitely won't see, as our autumnal "maritime" (i.e. sh**ty) climate is doing its thing.
This is my arrangement of a wonderful romantic tune by the inimitable…
Oh Carl, this is a real gem! You caught me with the “walking the ditches for road kill”. That’s poetry!
Oohhhh, I just heard the “cousins” part.
OUTSTANDING!
Who needs a DAW anyway? The recording is me pressing foot switches for looper memory location number nine; guitars were recorded thru my pedalboard's various effects into my Boss RC-500.
Sometimes writing a song is the very best and only thing you can do....
Cold Winter Moon
Oh cold winter moon
And the wind that blows
Bring me a change
For my weary soul
Take away this longing
That fills my heart
Something is over…

This was one of the most hilarious songwriting sessions we've had in a long time.... One for all the single people still searching for the elusive LTR out there - a classic with Greg Connor - guitar, Mark Lofgren - guitar and lead vocals, yours…
The MN coffee table is back!!!! We have a new member too - Joel Schaubert, who joined Mark Lofgren and Greg Connor - veterans of the coffee table. Once again we wrote this song and recorded it in my backyard coffee table (hence some of the wind…
Saying Sorry ....What a drag!
Saying Sorry
I ain’t no innocent
I don’t pretend to be
I’ve always wanted to go through this life hoping just float free
But then today it all went wrong
Everybody seems to hate me
When I’m just trying…
The final Song for my 2023 RPM challenge!! Dusted off my acoustic guitar (and blistered my fingers) to get this one done. Phew! I love Latin rhythms and so I found a beat and jammed it up. Thanks again to anyone who listens -it's really fun…
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Here is a new mix, compliments of Gene Eric Mann. Gene didn't say this, but I'd like to think that he wanted to make sure that Steve heard every word clearly. Thanks Gene!
You guys are hilarious. You put so much heart and soul into putting a professional, classy musical track to some crazy silly lyrics. Y'all are so lovable. No wonder Rosie is so torn between you and Steve -- but y'all better watch it. I heard a rumor that some guy name Ron might start making moves on that gal.
hahaha… Rose sure likes a change of scenery.
You are still going great. A real treat for sure
I recognize that blues background. Another great song. SlKrell lost the girl!!! Funny stuff guys.
Who is this Slkrell?
You know this one's right up my alley!!!...playin da blues and stealin your buddys girl...ha good gawd!!!! love it....I might want permission to cover this one....love the lyrics...
Yes yes yes yes yes!!!! The song that first made me a Connor fan.
I totally love this song! It's going to be the song in my head all this week, I am sure!!!!
Great job I think you met the challenge!
Nice job!
No matter which version of this song I listen to, in my head I hear you singing "Come and get it!"
Oh, Greg, you are brilliant. A master songwriter with a tasteful ear for what genre and instruments and style go with the lyrics, which you are also great at. Very pleasing, and much fun. I'm with Ron -- how do you do it?!
Garrison Keillor would like this
I'm afraid to even try to say chicken pluckin!!!!...let alone in Petaluma:-) you had to win the challenge.....I don't know how you do it....great one Greg
Hey Norm . . . I'm taking a walk down memory lane this afternoon. Nice Drumming! Here is where to find Norm: http://alonetone.com/norm
I just discovered this one! It's fun to page through your tunes. Always something great to find.
Great tune.
How did I neglect to favorite this one before now?!
Oh yes, like it. And you even included the chords so's I could play along :-)

Stretching the boundaries. Minimal instrumentation carried by a heavy drum groove. It sounds good!
Interesting sound of drum and vocal. It’s a real toe tapper.
Aahhhh, the good old days. That was fun!
You are the man.
I stopped by for a listen this morning. Hope you’re doing well
It’s always some guy named “Roger”
Great lyrics …. Again
I might come back for the BBQ. Interesting subject matter and a little unexpected.
You got the gift. Another excellent song.
Oh Carl, this is a real gem! You caught me with the “walking the ditches for road kill”. That’s poetry! Oohhhh, I just heard the “cousins” part. OUTSTANDING!
Pretty cool. This might make a nice backing track for a video.
I stopped by for another listen! Magnificent!
Oh Man … that is beautiful. What a masterpiece! I love the Irish influence and the powerful lyrics. O U T S T A N D I N G
I'm laughing all over again! This was fun.
That was a lot of fun! I’m tickled with the outcome. I think the song and everyone’s contribution resulted in a great collaboration.
Haunting and reflective.
I love it . . . but I don't remember doing this at all. Maybe we "raised our glass to the future" a few too many times.
Ahhhh . . . Something I can relate to. This is so close to home that you got me laughing out loud.
Beautiful 10th RPM song. The completion of an album you can be proud of. I love the touch of harmony in the chorus and the transition in the bridge.
