"Hey Motorman" was written for the 100 year celebration of the Ariel Lift Bridge.
The bridge was originally built in 1907 with a gondola that went from side to side carrying passengers and vehicles. It was later replaced with a lift system.

Wish good fortune come your way
A passing glance, I’m on my way
Trading smiles
Courtesy seems all but gone
No idea what went wrong
For most of us, it’s been too long

Lyrics
Cry of Love
Cry of love, heard in the meadow
Watching the wind blow
With love in the air
Cry of love, answered by another
Who courts the same lovers
With sounds of despair
Cry of love, heard in the daylight
Still crying…
My goodness, my listens this evening have been such a pleasure.
A beautiful song, and of course he does Greg! Look at him, isn't he gorgeous?
Cool banjo!
Lyrics:
Crazy people, wander round all night
Looking toward the Heavens
At little specs of light
Dragging round their telescopes
And Binoculars
All the tools they need to gaze among the stars
Crazy people, look at what they do…

Baby can you here the thunder tonite?
Baby can you here the rain coming down, down?
Lately Ive been dreaming of you lying next to me and I realise your gone
And I cant seem to find
A way to stop these tears, from bleeding out this heart of…

Oh yes, this is the stuff. Thanks for the invitation to *"season"* your song a little.
It was fun pulling out that old Dobro and bottle neck. This song is just made for it!
Sometimes it's hard to figure out what just happened. And then again it's sometimes hard to figure out something that happened years ago.
(To answer the question by the commenter, that's all me and my little self all alone in the basement…
Hey all, which Greed version do you prefer? :)
Lead guitar, organ, and drums added by Vic Lyn. He did a great job - extremely talented and insightful with music. Thanks so much, Vic. (Check out Vic's website: www.avlstudios.com

My instrumental cover of Christina Aguilera's song "Beautiful" I guess I am ready for the old folks home!!!! ...now that I am doing ballads!!!
I just happen to really like the chord progression and thought I would try an instrumental cover…
This is a request from Gene Eric Mann
one of mine and Andy's older ones...we envisioned this a a soundtrack for a horror movie....Andy thought of the story because his son likes to go into the woods near his house and brng back sticks!!
this is…
Unique, and very interesting.
I like how both Justin and Gene love it. They have an interesting ability to always agree. I have to concede, they're both right on this one!
Another oldie form Andy and I and requested by Gene Eric Mann....this one is about a friend of Andy's that had a drug problem....Andy wrote all the lyrics and plays rhythm guitar...weird guitar parts and all other instruments sre me and me playing…
We've always adored this song, there is another version but decided to re-record it. Now I think the Good Wife sounds quite good, when I think of the crap health problems she endured over the last 4 years. I am bias of course !!!! Lastly apologies…

Like the words. I should play banjo again, haven't in a long time.
Beautiful tune! He won the fight but the lady didn't wait for him, no? I think that's her, running away around 3:45...
Are those antlers or is he just happy to see her

Comments made by Greg Connor
That's a nice fresh sound !
A T T I T U D E That's the ticket
Just like a train going down the tracks. Very inviting.
Beautiful song. I also listened to a couple *"Atlantic Skies"*. Very impressive!
Endicott . . . You've been holding out on us. This is beautiful. Vocals are perfect for this music.
Good collaboration. Very nice fit!
I've listened to three of your songs so far. . . All of them keepers! Nice lyrics and Nice Licks!
Stopped by for another listen this morning. Still got the juice!
Very romantic. I like that syncopated rhythm.
Oh yes, this is the stuff. Thanks for the invitation to *"season"* your song a little. It was fun pulling out that old Dobro and bottle neck. This song is just made for it!
You really know how to tickle an emotion. I love it James!
I just listened to them back to back. Both good, but, the acoustic version has my vote. It has that raw feel to it. Both good though.
NOW I'M IN THE MOOD !!!! Let the festivities commence.
You got my feet tapping with this one! Great Mix.
I had to press play for another listen this morning.
Unique, and very interesting. I like how both Justin and Gene love it. They have an interesting ability to always agree. I have to concede, they're both right on this one!
Good one guys!
This is a great groove. Very inviting.
Interesting bits of music! It will be fun to hear the finished result.
I don't know the original either, but I like this. Both of you sound *GREAT!*
