THE TIDE POOLS OF CALIFORNIA
When you're born in California
There are things you take for granted
The sunshine and the desert and
The forests, and the bears and the beaches
In the tide pools of California
In the memories of one little…

I used some older lyrics
All instruments by me

I wrote this song about my father and Dementia/Alzheimer's over a year and a half ago. We just finished the song and video, kind of surreal because Dad is in a nursing…
Poignant and well delivered message! Sorry to hear that your Dad is in a nursing facility now. There are a lot of us dealing with aging parents right now.
From what you have shared with me regarding his personality, he’s probably making friends and enjoying himself.

And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.
On…
Huge rain thunder and lightning storm swept thru, and right behind
a bunch of frogs serenaded us ........ Bull frogs. ...are allright

I was messing about and this came out. Thanks for listening
GET DOWN ON MY KNEES

Take my hand and tell what you see

Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
We got motivated to write something a bit light hearted about our Covid-19 Times.... I hope you'll laugh and sing along with Roger , Colleen, Greg and Steve on this one... any maybe raise a glass of your personal moonshine!!!

A simple guitar groove. Haven't sat in a coffee shop since before the lockdowns, and I miss the atmosphere and the music! This tune feels to me like sitting in a cafe.
(Every time I think it's done, I end up tweaking it a bit more in Audacity…
Update: Gene offered to improve the Mix on this song! This is that improved version. Thanks so much Gene! You are awesome!!!

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Big clean transparent sound. Wish I knew how you do it. (Good blues tune too!)
Well done, Greg. Never retire from playing your wonderful music.
Nice job, Greg!!
Yummy ,Southern Fried
Congratulations on the CD
Great tune! has a real southern feel...that "Black Water" groove by the Doobie Brothers another outstanding job all around!!
Now that's how to write a tune. The second verse was perfect....... If we I get to sing this one together ,I got dibs on that second verse.
wonderful folk song, full of images that somehow take me off the range as well. Much enjoyed.
Congrats on being able to retire. I probably never will. You got much more than stories left, sir. You got songs!
Great lyrics....and of course outstanding singing & playing...reminds me a little of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
Boy you sure can write a good one!!!! Another masterpiece! Thanks for sharing the song challenge too!!!
Okay. Seriously!!! You are just amazing. This is wonderful. I hear that Beatles influence for sure. Love the lyrics. My guitar and my thoughts are once again friends - killer!!!
Ha brilliant, 12 string electric still there ,well used. Blue in color as I remember
I love this as well!
Nice use of 12-string acoustic.
WOW!! as a huge Beatles and George fan I love this...great job getting the feel and sound of the Beatles.. guitars have that 60's sound...most excellent..... reminds me a little of Norwegian Wood and your voice has a little Tom Petty sound.....love it love it love it...can't say enough good things about this tune!!!!!!
Ha !you win Greg ,She is all yours ,all 300lbs

First, the guitar sound is amazing. This friendly little project is is special in so many ways.
It sounded you had lots of fun. Great song, great harmonies.
Comments made by Greg Connor
Great memories. You really paint a picture.
My feet are tapping!
Rita and I both enjoyed the video. We especially liked “the good wife” singing back up. I have to say the ending really got our attention.
My feet are tapping in sultry Minnesota this morning. Thanks for taking my mind off the heat for a few minutes!

Wonderful medley of tones weaving in and out. Love it! That slide is captivating.
Love the slide and the topic!
Oh yeah . . . . You are on a streak. Another good one.
Wow is the word! Impressive.
Rainy days are good for naps but they can certainly mess with your head. Good song Roger! I like the ending, “Don’t let me down”
Outstanding song and message!
Rita and I are giggling this morning. You guys are a lot of fun to hang around with.
This is addictive! I love it.
I just discovered your Colab-O-Rama playlist. I listed to most of and just enjoyed every moment.
Sweet Memories
Great interpretation! ( I have typed and erased several times and now . . . . I'll just leave it at that)
Yes I could hear Colleen breathing, and as far as I can tell, it sounds like you were far behind trying to catch up while recording.
Is that a mandolin? Nice song.
Ahhhh ...... The good old days!
Rita and I are listening together. She wants to know why I never wrote a song about HER !
