It's been a long time. Too many distractions and not enough time, or even focus to play lately.
Somehow this song, "Higher Ground" squeaked out from some hidden place.
Here is an old song with a brand new wash and shine. Recorded today. It's a song about a fictitious girlfriend that Steve Krell created and . . . well . . . I just couldn't help but steal her away from him. In fact we both stole and lost her…

Ah . . . . the single life. I think I would be in big trouble if that happened to me. You have some great descriptions all through the song. Wonderful!

Chorus
Cleave me from my foibles
My heart is torn in two
I can’t go forward
And I can’t…
I found this Tangelwood guitar locally in a repair barn
its a parlor with 12 frets to the body
the top wood is cedar, this guitar can sing
I am sharing its beauty with you for free
I wrote this one yesterday. A little something to bring hope for the future.... there's always time to begin anew.
Thanks to Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren for their wonderful guitars and vocals on this one - recorded yet again around my kitchen…
A little celestial inspiration for this song.... I started it and Greg and Mark helped me finish it and then record around my kitchen table. Feel free to howl if you like it!
Blood Wolf Moon
VERSE 1
Blood wolf moon this January…
Is this autobiographical? I feel like I hardly know you 😆
Oh, I just got to the lead break. ..... very nice.
Another foot tapper. You just keep cranking them out. By the way, I used to live and drive Hwy 23 every day for years.
Boy oh Boy.... Have I ever missed playing live with these two wonderful guys!!!! Recorded last week in my front yard with Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren. An original tune I wrote from the times before the pandemic, but all the sweeter to be able…
The Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn Forming the Christmas
Star left we here breathless. I fiddled with the big foot telescope, Kim with her Ceremonial feathers and all, but we ended just holding hands
Best of everything…
Well the song tells the story of the morning.... a lovely bleak, cold day. I decided on a simple a cappella arrangement to fit the feeling of the day.
Happy Winter Solstice everyone! To brighter days ahead!!!!
My Old Bones Know Better…

Oh yah! We,ll see about that .. Greg can be easilly delouted by Rosie. He is a fool for her sweat band.
Hi Greg! I came to listen to Brad New Day but the player seems to be on the fritz. I’ll give it another try soo n!
Nice song, you always make it look so easy. Really nice picking...
Hello , Greg good to hear
Guitar sounds great...solid tone and playing.....your vocals keep getting better and better outstanding
Really like this Greg, top tune mate.
Love it - from the autumnal flavours to the crisp guitar hook. Very cool.
Sounds great...your right been a while, but worth the wait!! this is more pop sounding then most of your work..I like the feel and arrangement
Very, very good, Greg,

I'm laughing again this morning! What kind of warped minds would come up with this?
Lovely, and like you said “this guitar can sing”. It’s always fun to find a prize!
A beautiful song Colleen! Thanks for letting us play on it.
“Rain is Falling” let’s hope the Sun will peak out soon.
I love it! Not bad for a live mix, recorded on a handheld recorder!
Second listen, lovely.

Beautiful song, great imagery. The view from your window is a LOT better than mine.
I love that 12 String. Excellent song.
I’m laughing out loud again! That was fun singing your great song, all 3 of us in the same room again after 15 months.
I love it . . . Way to go guys!
First song of the new year and great uplifting message
Beautiful and melancholy at the same time.
Oh that Frankie, lots of ideas! I’m really impressed with the sound of you guitars. That 12 string is the perfect accent to the electric.
Beautiful song! We’ve been looking but have not seen the event yet. Hopefully we’ll get a clear night soon.
Replay . . . Third time thru . . . You got a keeper there!
Love it. As bare as a winter's chill.
Lovely, this will be different but definitely a Christmas to remember.
Listening to your Colab O Rama this morning! https://alonetone.com/cetdillon/playlists/collab-o-rama Lots of great songs in one place.
