So sweet, so beautiful. ROCK ON! You're such a soul man, you're layin' the grooves with so much love and color and warmth -- it's good to know I can always find a Greg Connor tune when I need it, right here on alonetone -- fabulous!
I dig how you mixed and and mastered all the instruments in this song to support each other just so. Your picking style, executed and delivered with such sweetness, is down-right sexy! Always enjoy your voice too.

You always have such a good mix of instruments ... each one is unique but works so well with the others. Great playing all round, but I'll mention the bass specifically because it's such an important "frame". Really nice vocals too!
Written by John Turner from his new release The Whole Shabang.
John on Drums & Lead vocal,
me on all guitars and backing vocals
and Ken Hornoff on bass and recorded at his Tukar studio.
First time we did the power trio thing!
A song about people who've been in and moved on in our life - maybe a lullaby of sorts... thanks for listening to my latest.
If Ever Oh Ever
If ever oh ever
I could find you again
we’d jump in the water and
Swim to the end

Just finished running sound for the Second Act Players’ production of "Finding Gladys" and enjoyed putting together original music to use for a theme, a soap opera, and scene changes. The song 'Getting To Know You' from the musical "The King And…
Ok, not the best thing I've done, but it seems that 1/ It has become a chore to even pick up my guitar. 2/ And to go and record. Old age getting to me ?!?!?!
Phew! Song 10 of my RPM 2024 done. Well, this is more of an experimental piece...I threw a bit of everything in...prophet synth, electric guitar, and even some crowd noise (I loved it when Bjork did that so...). The power cutout just as I was…
First Day of the 2024 RPM challenge .... so here is Song 1
I'm experimenting with my old analogue synth (Prophet 6) this year
Thanks to anyone who listens! A gloomy song for gloomy times. Onward!
One day
You’ll find
It’s over, it’s over…
It’s fun to find you again for RPM. It’s like coming across an old friend. I’ve listened to your first three RPM entries. I’m noticing a theme and you are off to a great start. Good luck/Have Fun.
It's now 12:00 am....so Song 2 for RPM is as done as it will be!
In this tune I'm experimenting with vocal layering and using my analogue synth (my guitar and piano are giving me the skunk-eye). Thanks again for anyone listening out there…
3rd Song for RPM. Getting this done was filled with late night torture.
You tried so hard
You tried so hard
But you’re not there
You’re not there
You’re not there
You’re not there
You made your way
Oh you made your way
But…
Another Minnesota Coffee Table Song! Written and recorded “live” in one evening.
Memories: Written and performed by John Bennet, Joe Passofaro, Mark Lofgren, Colleen Dillon & Greg Connor. Listen to Minnesota Homebrew Radio w/ Carl Unbehaun…
After Greg Connor wrote this for me a while back, I kept listening to it every time I was feeling tired of winter, which at this time of year is several times a day. Somehow every time I listened to it, it reminded me of my dad. I know he would…
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…
Oh Carl, this is a real gem! You caught me with the “walking the ditches for road kill”. That’s poetry!
Oohhhh, I just heard the “cousins” part.
OUTSTANDING!
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
I do love these lyrics! And I can't type in these varifocals
yeaaaa! not only I find your music really good, it's just the inspiration I need right now

Hey Vern! Have you heard what Greg is singing now? We should sell the cow and get us one of these!
Now yer talkin', Greg. We know all about them ripe tomatoes!
I'm enjoying discovering your non-banjo stuff. Production is getting really good. Clean, nice sound image... something that still eludes me.
Always loved this Greg. Smooth & juicy....Good enough to eat !!
Got the wind in my hair Greg, All Six Strands !!! Good One
Damn! Now I miss my old '67 Caddy convertible! Oh Well- too damn old for that stuff now anyway!
Here it is, the blues; (:-blowing:-)
Thoroughly enjoyed the video, the music, the song and the market.
Ok! Deal! It has to be red!
Laughed at your lyrics. Been there, done that. And my hair is right where it should be, thank you very much! ER
You are on a roll....very nice!!! oh and tell Rita to get you one of those.
Oh! Nice pickin! We could split the cost and share!
Diggin' on the banjo.
Man this is a road trippers joy, A man his girl and a top down toy

Ha ha ha, Hair blowing in the wind and all the way down the road.

Good song with great guitar playing, or should I say shredding. Well done Ron. I think your trio is a success!
A Foot Tapper! I love it.
Another listen this morning. Good Stuff
Beautiful song! Another Dillon classic
This is fun! We’ll done my friend
It’s a foot tapper! Nice one Roger.
That’s a great sound.
Good Stuff!
Congratulations … another RPM success! Your music has a very unique quality to it. Very refreshing.
It’s fun to find you again for RPM. It’s like coming across an old friend. I’ve listened to your first three RPM entries. I’m noticing a theme and you are off to a great start. Good luck/Have Fun.
Stretching the boundaries. Minimal instrumentation carried by a heavy drum groove. It sounds good!
Interesting sound of drum and vocal. It’s a real toe tapper.
Aahhhh, the good old days. That was fun!
You are the man.
I stopped by for a listen this morning. Hope you’re doing well
It’s always some guy named “Roger”
Great lyrics …. Again
I might come back for the BBQ. Interesting subject matter and a little unexpected.
You got the gift. Another excellent song.
