I'm having a déjá vu moment here. Is it possible I've heard a different version of a tune sometime? Or am I just suffering from campaign 2016 mind rot?

Here is a *MOJITO* Fueled version of "TV Dinner" that we recorded last Monday night in my Basement.
It's one of 9 songs we will be taping for Community TV, thanks to the *Minnesota Association Of SongWriters*

I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…
This is the third, maybe forth time I recorded this tune.
I like this one best.
taken by surprise
a fine disguise
they came from across the sea
always moving closer
my eyes could see
then they called in the calvary
First just a…
My attempt at Folk music !!!! I blame Seth Lakeman, after seeing him in concert this popped out. Been meaning to re-record it for months, now seemed a good time....... as we survived the Cruise !!!!
I've posted this "Naked" version because Mrs Russe wanted me to... :-)
It wasn't "finished" in my mind - there was a certain amount of "orchestration" to come.
But I ended up liking the starkness of this version.
The original intention…
Here we go.
This one started out one morning several weeks ago when the sun was still shining...
If it's as wet and dark as it is here, just close your eyes, I'm sure you can imagine it if you try hard enough...
Lollies, chips, and beer…
Oh,
Iron jaws, wrapped around my legs,
Try to gnaw, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Oh,
Fresh cut gauze, soaking lips,
Trying not to fall, but why would I want to.
Why would I want to.
Silent pines, know my name

Old timey'st of versions. reminiscent of a deserting war warn civil war solder heading back to see a lady left behind. Close your eyes and try to smell the camp fire and burned coffee.
Just in time for the big 2012 election!
*** BANJO WARNING ***
Just me and me banjo.
Inspired by a story my journalist daughter in Moscow just published. She was too small when we moved to Russia to remember that politicians shaking hands…
I love it Robert! Your song is like a breath of fresh air. Well done my friend!
The banjo sounds fantastic, and by the way, I thought the *"BANJO WARNING"* WAS A NICE TOUCH.

Loving the guitars ...

Always great intimate acoustic music from you. Another goody.
Fall is my favorite time of year and this song is perfect and puts me in a fall mood!!..guitars sound excellent...great song Greg.
Nice man - good story telling. Guitar sounds sweet and you've got a very distinctive voice.
Great guitar work!
Loving thAt double vocal at the beginning ... I'm sat here listening to the wind blow
Draws you right in. Great stuff.

The question is - which SG? Nice mix of voices and instrumentation as usual. Buck
I thought it was Listen To the Wind because of the title not the music!! 2 completely different songs...almost same title:-) love the new one!!
The SG sounds great...I thought it was a remake of this song we did http://stash.alonetone.com/mp3/54568/Listening_To_The_Wind.mp3?AWSAccessKeyId=1Q6FSC4S0DWWWG6ZJAR2&Expires=1473252980&Signature=PYSaoYwHtJ9%2BjLauMHTcDSk3Zyg%3D but a new song about the wind!!! great stuff
Another instant classic. Love the sound of the Gibson backing your beautiful vocals. This one is sure a keeper
Beautifully nostalgic lyrics and a charming sound of voice and guitar
beautiful........
Up near the Temprance right now... Came back for another listen to this lovely song
For me, this song captures a feeling. It puts me back in northern mn with whiskey jacks, chickadees, and the silence of fresh snow on the ground.

That's really pretty Jane! It draws a person in.
I stopped by for an extra listen this morning. I like the Pan Flute here. Nice touch.
Oh yes . . . is this a true story?
This might be my favorite so far. Nice presentation Terry!
I love the bending notes. Very happy music.
Beautiful
Interesting sound that you have found.
Nice going Amy. You have a great voice!
Ahoy! I like the open sea flavor too. Well done!
I like it. Why fill it up with more than you need. I think you captured it perfectly.
I like the sound of "Drop D" Tuning.
Key of G . . . I was playing right along with my trusty harmonica.
Great *"Feel Good"* Song. Makes me want to fill the car up and take a drive.
I love the sound of acoustic guitar. Nice song, nice singing, and nice playing! It reminded me a little of David Wilcox.
That Whistle . . . Wow!
Good Easy Listening! Way to go Roger!
Yes . . . I can smell the campfire!
I love it Robert! Your song is like a breath of fresh air. Well done my friend! The banjo sounds fantastic, and by the way, I thought the *"BANJO WARNING"* WAS A NICE TOUCH.
Delightful
I like these "Story Songs".
