Maybe I take that challenge. But my song would be about Patti Meadors who transferred to my school in the middle of my senior year and tho she ate lunch across the street at the elementary school cafeteria with me just a few times and then transferred away before the year was over I will never forget her and...we never had that first date.

Ah a taste of summer. Nice one Greg, catchy chorus and love the banjo.
Just as I am retiring and about to be more of a supportive listener, my account has been deleted. So it's Bee here Greg and consider this has been faved.
I recently retired and for the past 4 months I've been telling people "All that's left are the stories". There will be no more of the glamor and prestige.

One of my first experiments with DADGAD tuning. I was hoping to get a dark,droning sound. I lived in Missouri for a lot of years and this sounds like what it feels like to be out in the sticks there.
Great Beginning! Very inviting to listen to. It just pulled me in.
Excellent contribution to the Song Writing Challenge!

My apologies to Ray Willie Hubbard. This sounds nothing like his great version of this. All instruments played by me, in studio.
This was before I discovered the usefulness of a pop filter.
Chris sent me over this track and i got to wondering what i could do to add to it. The tragedy of the Russian plane flying back from Egypt came to mind .....
CHAOS
The chaos of our time
rules our minds
The crazy
trust in chaos
Chaos will…
Well the MN songwriters were in my living room tonight. We all shared our contributions to the "glass" songwriting challenge. Here's the live version of Poorly Blown Glass with Greg Connor on Guitar, Scott Zosel on Mandolin, Colin Walterson…
This song will touch your heart, once. Its composition is so well. One of my friend sent me this song. She made me perk up with this song. Its wordings are not only remarkable but unforgettable. Let me know your opinion for this song.
Great song! It pulled me in from the start.
Interesting Lyrics complimented with wonderful instrumentation.

Great to hear you playing more electric!!! excellent solo, very melodic..... outstanding song, has a feel like Roger McGuinn and the Byrds love it

EXCELLENT .. EXCELLENT .. EXCELLENT You got the touch! Well sung and played! I love the lyrics! Time to press Replay
Captivating song. It really grabs you and wont let go.
You have captured it Reg! Unfortunately the story behind the song keeps getting worse.
Beautiful ...................
Well done, especially with everything that is going on in the song. It fits together well.
I like that gritty slide! Nice playing!
Beautiful music for what seems like a senseless event.
Good Entertainment!
The white light coming through the door at the end gave me the chills. That's a pretty neat video!
This is beautiful. Nice work on this one Colleen! I'm amazed at the quality of recording from a small handheld recorder sitting on your coffee table.
I love that acoustic music!
Well done
You always come up with the best melodies and lyrics. I love the simplicity of this. The doubling of voice (W/Reverb) is a nice touch.
Great song! It pulled me in from the start. Interesting Lyrics complimented with wonderful instrumentation. *(Not what I was expecting after reading your profile description)*
