I had fun singing this at the open mic this past week.

Singin' the blues! I think the first 2 lines are the same as "Blue Night", but then it goes off into it's own realm. There's nothing like a reso for the blues. One of these days I should pick up a decent one. BTW - resophonic/dobro with slide is getting really popular here. There was just a big festival going on down in Moscow recently.

This put a big smile on my face. The percussion is like nothing I've heard before in the Connor universe. That's a hip bass and drum combo, but the vocals and guitar are classic -- a mighty tasty fusion of styles. Very interesting, intriguing even. The blend of vocal tracks is particularly groovy. Some sweet picking there, bud! I'm taking this out for another spin!
Psychedelic Folk. Ever meet that special someone in a laundromat? Ever do it on top the dryer? Either way, you’re sure to dig this clean groove. Compilation by Stephen L. Krell and Gene Eric Mann.
HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…
Sad and sweet memories, Gene Eric Mann's last song.

My idea for the song was, what if life was a bar, and all 7.5 billion earthlings were group into just a handful of characters that could fit into a bar – what is everyone doing? What are they thinking?
Greg Connor added his amazing harp to the song. It really adds depth to it. I love Greg's playing on the song. Thanks so much, Greg! This is why Alonetone is great.

I count my blessings…
A BIG, BIG thank you to Wildgeas who took my simple acoustic guitar song and turned it into a beautiful work of art. Arrangements and Production done magnificently by Paul Lennon (Wildgeas). Also, special thank you to Bethan who put her sweet…
Uploaded just in time for the 2013 peak of the Perseid meteor showers of 2013, which I definitely won't see, as our autumnal "maritime" (i.e. sh**ty) climate is doing its thing.
This is my arrangement of a wonderful romantic tune by the inimitable…
I came over to find your "horse meat" song. I can't find it, but I'm finding all these other gems that I completely forgot about.
You made my day Robert! Now I'm inspired!
The wonderful MN songwriters helped take a bite out of the January cold on Tuesday night this week and added some amazing depth to Singing in the Silence - We were as usual, recording on a little TASCAM around my coffee table. We had lots of…
We got together again around the coffee table and the gang helped me record this song I wrote this week.
Greg- Guitar, Vocals
Scott - Mandolin, Vocals
Colin - Bass, Vocals
Colleen - Uke, Vocals
Hope you like it!

Nothing beats when the MN songwriters convene. Greg and Colin sure brought some awesome sound to this song at the coffee table to improve the version that I recorded myself earlier this month. It's what I call a TOTAL MAKEOVER.
Thanks guys…
Recorded this one as a test track to sync with the video I shot for it. I am not happy with the computer virtual amp guitar sound on this. I will re-record this and mic my amp for that real cranked 100 watt tube sound.

Ok, before I go any further, I need to thank Alonetoner Greg Connor. He proposed a song-writing challenge around the theme of "Who Knew" in early/mid December. Many musicians here in the Alonetone community wrote some amazing songs around this…
Well ... I tried to log in on my iPhone and learned that I am only a guest. Rita and I listened to *"Taking Back What's Mine"* over a Bluetooth speaker in the living room this morning and as I said in the previous "Guest" message, lots of emotion and imagery!
I'm impressed with your guitar playing and the tone from your new guitar too. Very nice!
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
A master class in song writing and playing Greg
Lovin' that harp playin' Greg. Don't get much better. Just cool!
Another excellent mix and balance of voice and all the instruments.
Nice tune!
Sounds like Jim Morrison vocals and with the skill of Bob Dylan guitar and harmonica at the same time
We're all clucked up over this one!
Nice "stuff"

I'm with Ron on the swamp rock feel, and with Colleen about the movie soundtrack material. As always, without fail, a great job!
Oh yeah...nice funky groove!
Sweet!!!!!!! Is that you on the harmonica as well??? This one sounds like movie soundtrack material :-)
Eight to go please with deli mustard
Huh, full moon last nite , why do I think you wrote this this morning?
Good ear Ron! Yes, that's my old Dobro, built in 1973 tuned to open D and played with a slide.
you are on a roll now for the RPM Challenge... are you playing slide? sounds great ...almost like a Dobro...this has a really nice swamp rock feel!!
Very catchy tune. Added it to my collection.
Alright!! Jammin' tune Greg. Goes great with my morning coffee and cigarettes. Rise and shine :)
This has a really great feel and good grove... the challenge is yours!!!!...do it chorus sounds amazing...outstanding vocals as usual..
funky vocals… you have a lot of tricks up that sleeve of yours

This song needs a little *Mississippi Harmonica Heat* I'm anxious to hear some of your new Hot Licks!
Instant smile!

I hope this one makes it on your new album! This is a great song . . . but I think you should fire your harmonizers.
This one is special !!!
Still one of my favorites!
Another masterpiece! Lots of fun playing music around your coffee table.
WOW !!!! You really know how to stand up and deliver!
I stopped by for a little listen / Primer . . . getting ready for Thursday night!
Love that bass coming in! Good build up all the way through.
this is the stuff! My feet are tapping!
Oh, this is pretty!
Great Song, and good company sitting around your coffee table!
Well Done!
Oh Yeah! Very Rich! Nice going Gary!
