The SG sounds great...I thought it was a remake of this song we did

but a new song about the wind!!! great stuff
Here is a *MOJITO* Fueled version of "TV Dinner" that we recorded last Monday night in my Basement.
It's one of 9 songs we will be taping for Community TV, thanks to the *Minnesota Association Of SongWriters*
Harley Coborn - Bass
Tilden…
I had fun singing this at the open mic this past week.
Originally written for a song writing challenge using the phrase *"Chicken Plucking Time In Petaluma"*
Here's a new one that I did
All instruments and vocals by me
------------------------------------------
When I was young I dreamed of big things
I was flying so high on eternity's wings
Refr: Live every moment as if it were your last…
A song I wrote over the last few days. Did a one-take-wonder on the recording, so it's pretty simple. Hope you like it!
Sometimes You Don't
Verse 1
Sometimes in the early morning hours
As the sun lights up the sky
I look back and think…
Ah . . . . the single life. I think I would be in big trouble if that happened to me. You have some great descriptions all through the song. Wonderful!
Written by Colleen Dillon, Mark Lofgren & Greg Connor around the Minnesota Coffee Table in less than 3 hours.

Chorus
Cleave me from my foibles
My heart is torn in two
I can’t go forward
And I can’t…
I found this Tangelwood guitar locally in a repair barn
its a parlor with 12 frets to the body
the top wood is cedar, this guitar can sing
I am sharing its beauty with you for free
I wrote this one yesterday. A little something to bring hope for the future.... there's always time to begin anew.
Thanks to Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren for their wonderful guitars and vocals on this one - recorded yet again around my kitchen…
A little celestial inspiration for this song.... I started it and Greg and Mark helped me finish it and then record around my kitchen table. Feel free to howl if you like it!
Blood Wolf Moon
VERSE 1
Blood wolf moon this January…
Is this autobiographical? I feel like I hardly know you 😆
Oh, I just got to the lead break. ..... very nice.
Another foot tapper. You just keep cranking them out. By the way, I used to live and drive Hwy 23 every day for years.
Boy oh Boy.... Have I ever missed playing live with these two wonderful guys!!!! Recorded last week in my front yard with Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren. An original tune I wrote from the times before the pandemic, but all the sweeter to be able…
The Conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn Forming the Christmas
Star left we here breathless. I fiddled with the big foot telescope, Kim with her Ceremonial feathers and all, but we ended just holding hands
Best of everything…
Well the song tells the story of the morning.... a lovely bleak, cold day. I decided on a simple a cappella arrangement to fit the feeling of the day.
Happy Winter Solstice everyone! To brighter days ahead!!!!
My Old Bones Know Better…

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
I thought it was Listen To the Wind because of the title not the music!! 2 completely different songs...almost same title:-) love the new one!!

Another instant classic. Love the sound of the Gibson backing your beautiful vocals. This one is sure a keeper
Beautifully nostalgic lyrics and a charming sound of voice and guitar
beautiful........
Up near the Temprance right now... Came back for another listen to this lovely song
For me, this song captures a feeling. It puts me back in northern mn with whiskey jacks, chickadees, and the silence of fresh snow on the ground.
this is beautiful....
Dig it mate
Snagged this one, too.
Love your stuff. Am becoming a fan.
Nice song ...
No no! I don't want to hear about SNOW yet!! :-D
outstanding Greg...love the lyrics..guitars are sound amazing..really good mix
Oh wow! I just listened and remember you playing this last time around the coffee table. This is one of my all time favorites of yours!
Listening to this one tonight with little Rory. He is loving it!
Love this one :)
Nice & cool
The first line alone conveys so much! Powerful song on multiple levels. Thanks for sharing it.
Great song even though there is a sad undertone.
Comments made by Greg Connor
Good advice! It seems we are both in a reflective mood lately. A solid song, great lyrics, excellent instrumentation and delivery.
That chorus really struck me. Beautiful all the way through. The third verse, in particular, brings out the optimistic view. It’s never too late .
Ah . . . . the single life. I think I would be in big trouble if that happened to me. You have some great descriptions all through the song. Wonderful!
I'm laughing again this morning! What kind of warped minds would come up with this?
Lovely, and like you said “this guitar can sing”. It’s always fun to find a prize!
A beautiful song Colleen! Thanks for letting us play on it.
“Rain is Falling” let’s hope the Sun will peak out soon.
I love it! Not bad for a live mix, recorded on a handheld recorder!
Second listen, lovely.

Beautiful song, great imagery. The view from your window is a LOT better than mine.
I love that 12 String. Excellent song.
I’m laughing out loud again! That was fun singing your great song, all 3 of us in the same room again after 15 months.
I love it . . . Way to go guys!
First song of the new year and great uplifting message
Beautiful and melancholy at the same time.
Oh that Frankie, lots of ideas! I’m really impressed with the sound of you guitars. That 12 string is the perfect accent to the electric.
Beautiful song! We’ve been looking but have not seen the event yet. Hopefully we’ll get a clear night soon.
Replay . . . Third time thru . . . You got a keeper there!
Love it. As bare as a winter's chill.
