"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.

Trading Smiles

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…

Cry of Love
Cry of love, heard in the meadow

Cry of love, answered by another
Who courts the same lovers

This is a “cross-over” pattern. Cross-over patterns are a type of enharmonic polymeter, where 2 rhythms with different numbers of beats/measure are played at the same tempo: the measures do not line up each time. These rhythms have measures…
Started out be an innocent little jazzy study in quartal harmony, but the DL4 was still in my signal path and things went downhill from there! Another done with my beloved '58 Stratotone

the tiny brown wren
so small but so loud
its voice fills the woodlands and moorlands and farms
its beautiful song

This was played on my Yamaha Guitalele, recorded direct into my Boss BR-80. Its like a Uke with 6 strings. I tune it to the equivalent of DADGAD, like a guitar in DADGAD capo'd at the 5th fret. These are wonderful little instruments, and hours…
just a little dirty blues, to cleans the pallet so to speak. "Most people would like to be delivered from temptation but would like it to keep in touch." --Robert Orben

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
I never met a monkey I didn't like. Wonderful beat supporting some nice riffs.
Great story telling, of uncertainty, which gets resolved, or at least somewhat resolved.
Nice song // Great Lyrics
Nice groove! I have to say the lyrics sort of slid in quietly and then REALLY captured my attention. "You Got What I Need"
I found myself rocking back and forth a little while listening. This is very addictive!
You have a great banjo, guitar, harmonica sound going here. Very Pleasing to listen to.
Great to hear a little banjo around here! Seems like they're always ... over me ... sooner than the other way around.
Wow ... That is a full & beautiful sound.
Lot's of feeling in there!
Very unique, and completely enjoyable. I watched the video after I listened to the song. That was another treat.
Nice Picking. That guitar sounds sweet.
I like that harmonica!
This just has to make a person feel good.
I'm laughing out loud. You're making me thirsty!
4 inches of new snow last night, and a listen to your song this morning. It's starting to feel like Christmas.
That hit the spot!
Very catchy contagious song
Thumbs Up! This one flows nicely.
Very Pretty story telling. I've been to Deadwood. What a place to spend eternity.
Nice guitar work.
