Hey Colleen, you asked "Who did the scary cries????"
There are two theories:
1. It's Rita calling me for dinner.
2. It's my world famous Elk Rut recordings that I usually play every Halloween.

I think these challenges are so expanding ,I sat back and followed the the progression carefully.
Then to hear what you did with this unusual thread ,the lyrics made it all seem so natural.
I am impressed. More please

The other day I was having problems
So I called my son
Because he always helps me when I'm in trouble...
When the mouse can't see the dongle
The cursor is erratic.
There's something in the way
Move that chair
Hmh, maybe I Google it…
Another new song

Where in the world did we go wrong
All the bad guys are coming on so strong
We're slowly losing all our rights
A quiet revolution overnight
Whenever you think that it's not right…
No more covid songs....
Time to write about other things
This one's for my muse
I had uploaded an earlier version, but didn't like the mix
here's another version

I was asked (told?) to upload something happy. Hmmm, I thought. This will end well...
So, a few days later, I was rehearsing a pleasant little thing I wrote several years ago that has a working title of "She Was…
Here is another ZOOM Collaboration with:

We posted the lyrics and featured the chords, just in case you wanted to write your own lyrics and post them with this idea.

April rain storms are exciting but I am warm and cozy in side.
wrote this after hearing that some people suggest a dream before settling in for the nite. My J 45 really wrote this tune I just sang along
Written for a zoom group of favored musicians to criticize but I thought about it and it sounds alright to me. lets see if they will just support or make it better.
Hummmmmmmm.
A true story romanticized a bit . Old Charlie is a real…
Looking down the road as how sweet it will be after the bug” virus”

Open the doors and windows , drive fast with the top down
We gonna drink some wine with friends o mine, pas the bottle around
Go to a block party…

The worst man possible for the job right now

You play a dangerous game

Steve developed this beautiful track with his ukulele and I added some lyrics to make a "positive message" song for the times we are in.... Hope it makes you smile too...

I wrote it one dark night over 23 years ago.

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
I'm so glad you put this playlist together! What a great story.... Love that last line! Hilarious...
And this... woah, mighty fine... and the Elk Rut noises... yep SCARY!
Missed this. Fabulous.
Good job here it was hair raising spooky
Oh my the lightning got you, same thing happened to me
Scared the pants off me .... I ain't going into those woods ....
Hey Colleen, you asked "Who did the scary cries????" There are two theories: 1. It's Rita calling me for dinner. 2. It's my world famous Elk Rut recordings that I usually play every Halloween.
I don't know how you do it. A deep well - your story telling skills.... Love this one!!! Who did the scary cries?????
Fun!! love the sound effects....neat story and a catchy chorus!!!
great lyrics and well played sung and recorded very much enjoyed! KC
Was there a minor chord in there, I may have effected you, drew you closer to the dark side
Now .... can this be classed as a song about Rita ?? or is it about your car ??? As always Greg .... good stuff.
Cool! really dig the vibe here, good playing and singing! Always love songs about cars and driving :-) keep on cruising ! KC
Cool song, i dig the harmonica and all the instruments sound fine together. I thought it would be about a guitar when i clicked though :)
So many good stories in that brain of yours!! Love this. Especially fun to think of you driving around with Rita in that Mustang... and clean up the backseat would ya!
ha ha love it...reminds me of my first car.. a brand new 69 rally green Camaro that I got in the fall of 1968 great lyrics!!
Another cracker Greg ....
Awww... fabulous. This has got the dulcimer on it too? I love the textures you create with this and the guitar. And the song... gorgeous.
I think these challenges are so expanding ,I sat back and followed the the progression carefully. Then to hear what you did with this unusual thread ,the lyrics made it all seem so natural. I am impressed. More please
Absolutely beautiful! Such delicate finger picking so perfectly matches the lyrics. A masterpiece.!!!!

Sounds like you are on a roll ! Way to pluck on them strings. If you play long enough you'll work off that caffeine rattle.
The title pulled me in. The guitar playing kept me there. Wow!
Still good!
I really like the groove of your songs.
My favorite line: “You saved me from going down” Nice uplifting song.
Great message and wonderful music. Your guitar parts are fantastic.
Nice Lead Break Roger! This was an absolute riot to send this song around between the 4 of us and now post it!
This is a fun idea to contemplate. See you when you land.
You are on fire! This is a great song.
Nice blues track! It’s tough when they come for your van. 🚘 Keep hitting those green lights🚦
I love it ! ❤️ the Good Wife makes it special.
This has that lonesome wish I was there feeling!
I like that guitar sound. Great message. The Bug is gone and here comes the block party! You gotta love it.
Rock on . . . . . until we tip over the edge.
You are the Master of the 12 string.
Now I’m hungry. You have some nice licks here.
Nice groove and interesting message
How many times can I “Favorite” this? Outstanding dual effort! Excellent message on top of an outstanding track.
Great Song!
