Greg, at first i thought you were singing the song from Hair. But, your version is way better. You are getting really good at combining tracks together with your voice. :)c

Here is a Steve Krell song.
Buck Erpestad and I recorded live using two acoustic guitars.
Here is a link to Steve's original version : http://alonetone.com/slkrell/tracks/saskatchewanshostalconnorkrell

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…

I, like you, use to do electric guitar in my HS years, but also migrated to acoustic. Is that progress? I think so -- this song here would be much less effective if juiced up with distortion and wah wah and the other toys of our youth. This song is hard core as it is, and needs no electricity to get its message across.
One of my other hobbies is watching wildlife in the area. I'm the happiest with a pair of binoculars around my neck and my hiking boots laced up.
Rita and I took these photos over the last few days, near our home.

I recon this is my favorite Connor tune thus far. That is some coolacious strumming -- quite nifty in fact. The vocals and harmonica are exceptional. Yeah, this one really does in for me.
Dedicated to the Winter that never seems to end.

The core of the music is heavily inspired by Joni Mitchell. Its been spinning around for years in my head so hearing this song finally recorded feels good.
I once worked for a retail company in the computer industry. One of my fellow buyers took a job at another company, then returned six months later as a salesman for that company. This is a song of how he might have felt returning to the city…
That guitar really caught me. I like the break into acoustic too.

A cool mixture of MIDI and conventional instruments.

There is no better lighter / slide :) Buy one, it could save your life.

I've been trying to put another one of Mike's poems to music, but not getting anywhere.
Then jip threw this music at me, saying he hated it and asking if I could do anything with it. Pieces of Mike's poem went in and I sent it back to jip with…

Had written this one many years ago. I had it recorded originally in a different key and with different instrumentation but it I just was not happy with it. I deleted the original lyrics for the chorus and added a bridge section and lyrics. I…

Had to reload this one to get it to the top of my list. Just had news ezfolk Mp3 section is to close down :( Looks like I'm here to stay !!! I found alot of fellow musicians on that site, many who are here now, any way, here's to Ezfolk, au revoir…
you know they say you have to write some rubbish before the good stuff comes out?... Entirely Garageband, not a live instrument on it but it was clogging my head up.
Another one here for 1 week only. My daughter gets married in October & she wanted 'Their' song for their first dance at the reception played by me & sung by her husband. So I came up with this version. Now I need to learn the cello…
Excellent choice for *"Our Song"*. Your Daughter has good taste.
I'll bet there is a good chance that we're going to see a video somewhere around November 1st.
Well, here we go then...

Suburban thuggery and nearly low down close to the bottom blues
Honker tonker, Greg,I like it.
Cool drums they sound boxy, Cigar?
Outstanding
Really nice...good job
Be sure to send this to Gary…. I want to see his reaction to how you started off your harp solo! It left me wanting more. lol
Well now how'd I miss this one ! great collab from my two favorite Minnisota players
Hey , Greg glad you got home ok! I wanted to drive you home from the party , but Kimmy took away my keys
love it ...has a really great fun feel!!! harmonica sound sweet!!!
That was just beautiful...well except for the dead wives. Who knew that lily pads could lead to love.
This might be my favorite *Steve Krell* song. Maybe Steve will record another version of *Saskatchewan* with his new Gibson J45.
This is really cool..I can hear this one being a rocker as well.
dig how this one just rolls along....
I can't imagine you would be lonely long with that amazing talent.

How purty!

VERY GROOVY, VERY COOL!
I agree totally with what that Justin Otter Guy said below me! ;)

Nice feel to this one! Great Music / Great Lyrics & Singing
Way to get your groove on! Well sung Fran! I can tell Roger has his Leather Pants on. He sounds like a real Rocker!
I like the violins! That was a nice surprise. Lots of energy in here. Fun to listen to.

Terry . . . You got me laughing this morning! I love the inflection in your voice. It really put me into a spin!
You are on a roll.
I love that tuning. Way to think out of the box!
They may be trouble but we still chase them! I haven't caught one yet, but I still keep trying. Good song my friend.
I love it! Great driving bass line and ripping guitar lead. Just what I would expect from a Pub goer like yourself. *"Let's Go To The Pub"*
I never heard a Zippo sound so good. Nice piece of music.
Nice going Lady! The song is fresh and and lively. Great vocals as usual.
I Stopped back for another listen. I'm impressed how you can belt this song out!
I didn't expect the marimba, xylophone, whatever it was. Now you got my attention! That was fun!
Yes . . . This is a keeper! The bridge is a nice effect for resetting the song.
That organ really makes the song nice and light. Great touch. The song just bounces along.
Ah ... brings back memories of the *Good Old Days*
Delightful . . . .
Excellent choice for *"Our Song"*. Your Daughter has good taste. I'll bet there is a good chance that we're going to see a video somewhere around November 1st.
Andrew . . . You have found the *SWEET SPOT* Impressive playing, and the vocal track is outstanding.
Good One Terry!
