And waves collide with the shore
The sailor must be watching
For gusting wind we can’t ignore
Loose the main, correct the healing
Point the bow to the wind
Recognize the peaceful feeling
In this sacred…

It’s like floating down a river
When you’re not quite in control
That river’s going to take you
Only where it wants to go
So you reach out with conviction
At debris along the way
That river’s going to take you
If you give up and say…
My wife Rita mentioned that she had not heard my dulcimer on any music recently, so I tuned it up and wrote First Morning Light. A little Low D Irish Whistle flavored it just a bit.

That guitar sound is amazing. How is this recorded. Every element is crystal clear. Your voice too. 'There's a row boat in the distance,,," So suggestive of more than meets the ear...
I had myself a dream last night
As I tossed and turned in bed
The window was open wide
The street noise jangled, in my head
.
I was dreaming of a better time
It was all so clear to me
Wind whistled through the pine trees…

Cool sounds and fabulous lyrics. Over the last few days I've been sharing this very message in various forms in various places... That's probably why I like it so much... And I've come across others saying the same thing... It might not be filtering through to the media (at least not the stuff I'm seeing/hearing)... but then it's not very news-worthy! ... But if there's a bunch of us ordinary people thinking and saying this and similar... then I'm feeling quite encouraged :)

Nice take on that old tune.
I used stand in front of one of those red buckets for the Salvation Army with a few of my friends. This was my favorite song to sing and play.
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.

Good way to put the phenomenon into words ER.
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
I agree with Ron... you’ve caught that Lighfoot spirit. An ode to the great Gitche Gami. So beautiful. An instant fav - legit
Love the box of tricks Ok sailor you did it you turned time around. Jibe oh matey
I like this a lot..has a Gordon Lightfoot feel to it...also maybe a little Irish folk sound as well...Excellent
LOVE those sounds.
That guitar sounds great Very nice, full mix Good vocals too Good one! KC
Beautiful. "And the fragrance of the Summer lingers on the scent of the morning dew."
That guitar sound is amazing. How is this recorded. Every element is crystal clear. Your voice too. 'There's a row boat in the distance,,," So suggestive of more than meets the ear...
Straight out of Mayberry RFD. Great picture song.
Mode ?? Marvellous Greg , you have this fantastic knack of writing a song that you just have to listen too ... then Love ... then listen to again ... and love again ... simple isn't it ... NO ?!?!?
that's the message to answer the question , now what
Wow! I just love the message of this one. You are amazing!!!
Love the lyrics and the guitar sounds great...playing and tone! one of your best chorus's
I likes it more with each listen

Thanks to Rita for the lovely suggestion. I've never heard you play the dulcimer. These lyrics are so lovely... Beautiful all around
Wonderful Greg, wonderful ....
I hope your resume says multi instrumentalist!!!! love the sound I needed a peaceful song right now!!
Oh yeah... love this one.
Oh that sounds gorgeous. Very cool song, and a gorgeous recording.

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.
