Greg, the lyrics brought tears, silently sliding down my cheek, and a tug at my heart. The words have so much meaning and you found the true meaning of "Photographs" being a timeless picture of our memories. You have a special gift of music and I am so grateful you share with all of us.

Greg this is one of my favorites of all time. Your lyrics really touched me. And that timely harmonica just brings the bittersweet feel of the song. You are amazing!
I took an old track that was a cover of Hear my train and dropped the vocals and added some new electric guitar tracks. I had just upgraded my recording setup and was testing some hardware and software when I did this. It has a punchy lil guitar…
This song written by Mark Imsdahl..I found it over at Greg Connor's ...I liked it so much that I asked Greg and Mark if I could do an electric version of it and they agreed...i want to have Mark blow some harp on it when he gets back from vacation…
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
Well the story continues...Munga is back and after his wife and Sweet Ronnie....they ran off to Jamaica and Munga is not a happy camper
Ron: all instruments and vocals
So I was locked in the broom-cupboard, checking out some old songs that need recording.
I'd just picked one and then suddenly this thing came out of nowehere. It started with one of those guitarist doodles that other musicians love so much…
A new original from me. Another one-voice, one-guitar, "live" performance in my broom-cupboard. This time it's the good ole tin guitar.
I wrote this one in 2002 during the "dark years" lol. I've ummed and aahed over the years on whether to…
Most of the lyrics written in 1999, a tough year. Many thanks to JB for his awesome screaming lead playing (done first take, I should add!!!) and to LadyJane for supplying some oooo's. (anyone needing some vocals - send her your song!)
Dusted off (so to speak) a bluegrass style oldie (meaning I wrote years and years ago) about the ending of a long drought... dedicated to all my friends, known and unknown, in Colorado and other dry spots that are burnin' up right now.

Hi Mark,
That was a lot of fun! I think your Harp playing sounds great!
Yes "Cause a Bull Dog to Hug A Hound" sounds like it might fit right into your next masterpiece.
Let's do it.
A long time ago (high school, actually) I went to a dance and witnessed a girl trying to catch the attention of a boy. The memory inspired this song.
Enjoy.

A while back, Jim recorded a rough version of this song, and upon listening to it, I was thrown back to a day from my youth. While vacationing in Vermont, a small twister throwing…
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
What a gorgeous song. I just love these lyrics and such a peaceful melody!!
As easy as that Greg, a simple sounding song, but I can hear the complexity of it ... just wonderful ...
Did you know the original recording was made by a group called Them Other Pluckers?
Absolutely beautiful imagery! Love the picking along the way giving such a quiet peaceful feeling! Well done guys!!
Beautiful! This really captures so much of my experience (my favourite time for walking). This is a very well composed piece and the playing and singing are amazing. Thank you
Great picture painting guys ....
Another piece of magic Greg ....
Nice collaboration!! Love the chorus.
I try ....
oh wow...what a gorgeous song!!! That guitar is so peaceful and played with sensitivity. Truly beautiful. Thank you :)
Love the chord structure and the minor feel. Excellent chorus and as always great vocals!!
Your vocals are really awesome on this! Kind of resonating akin to a Johnny Cash vibe. I love it!!
Gregg, Been there done that so it resinates in my memories. Picked my self up too and found my way. Good stuff. May I cover it? JOHN BENNETT

Good song! My feet are tapping! Let's hear the story about the Allman Bros concert.
*GOOD GAWD* Rita and I are still giggling. . . Now that is entertainment.
That *SLIDE* adds the perfect touch. Fantastic song!
Lady . . . You found the sweet spot. Nice song! A friend called me to tell me "The Verge Of Sanity" was a *MUST LISTEN*
Great lyrics / Great guitar I enjoyed that.
I just thought I would stop by to see what Munga was up to.
Great song . . . and it sounds like my kind of lady too.
You really have some GREAT guitar sounds!
Oh, that hit the spot!
I'll bet you get somebody's creative juices flowing. These last couple tracks are inspiring!
Something about this one Roger! Nice job on this one! Good message too. Just curious . . . How do you know Andrew's wife?
Inspiring! It will be fun to see what becomes of the "Plunger" when it's all grown up.
Good strong voice on this one! I have always liked this song.
This kind of guitar playing really gets me going. Nice job. I like that notion of optimism right around the corner . . . but not quite here yet.
Wonderful lyrics. I'm laughing out loud. Nice catchy music too.
I like this a lot! Nice flat picking, great upbeat melody and lots of character. Great interplay between banjo, guitar, and slide guitar.
