The song verse is very poetic and lovely. I personally would love to hear it sung as quiet so without the background singing. Also would like to hear it without the twang.
My favorite song by Jane Bowers
She was still alive back when I 1st learned
this song from the Kingston Trio.
I didn't know, back then, that I could have met her.
WHEN I WAS YOUNG by Jane Bowers
When I was young and dreams were new…
Thank you Greg Connor for putting his wonderful harmonica on this song. Enjoy!!
My little steam train
Rolling down the tracks
My little steam train
Going to take me back
All aboard!
The conductor shouts
Hear that horn blow
Hear…
This is a *GREAT* song Nick !!! You have captured the essence perfectly.
And even though I have told my wife repeatedly that the song is about a Train . . . well, let's just say she's on to you.
a little bit of blues....live in the living room at the end perfect timing the wife opens the door ans says See you later.........
my baby’s gone and i don’t know what to do
my baby’s left me, she left me cold that is true
she gone and left…
I wasn't going to post this - it's the original demo that the finished version is based on. This is the same lead vocal and resonator part that's on the full version - no EQ or anything, just the naked tracks. There's two bars of silence before…
One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.

Here's a clip from a new folk single I just released. You can hear the whole song in the video below, or on the song page on my website.
This features 2 instruments people love to hate: banjo and accordion (in this case, melodeon). But both…

This is one of my favorite collaborations with Paul Lennon so far. I wrote the song with king of a bluesy feel, and then found a perfect marriage for the music with one of Paul's awesome tracks. Then we tinkered on it together to make it so…
Here's a new one. Well, a new old one, actually... And a bit different than the last one!
Something old, something new, something borrowed, and, er, something blue...

Song inspired by listening to Nick Cave and reading all the bad news in the newspapers. Enjoy.
Lyrics and Music by yours truly, Nick Plagakis
Damn it’s cold, as I exit this road
Time is now to intoxicate the soul
Up high, private jets…
A Facebook Friend posted a picture of a
sign hanging on a tree that had the words
to the first verse. I couldn't leave well
enough alone...I Googled the verse and
found it was written by Dallas Clayton.
MESSAGE ON A TREE

PRETTY GIRL
Pretty girl, pretty dress
Well, I must confess my heart is in a mess
Pretty girl
Some guys can walk up to a girl
Say, "Hey! I love you
They make it look like something
So easy to do
Pretty girl, pretty dress
Well, I…
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Hearing your song was a nice welcome home. I like it.
Oh yeah.... still does it for me :)
This is cool
Sounds like it belongs on Nashville Skyline...nice one, Greg!
Every now and again I just have to come back for a dose of Rosie. She just makes me smile.
Yeeeeehaw!
wow nice job...I gotta get moving on my Who Knew...
Good tune. Suits your style.
Oh yeah, that works for me.
I love the country twang sound... way to go!
Love the songwriting challenge! Lots of fun!!!!! Thanks Greg!
Thought I'd commented on this. Anyway, gave me an excuse to come back for another listen. Like this a lot.
Another winner!! great job Greg
Top quality post. Written, produced and played perfectly
Who knew, I would love this song, after all I wrote one too. But I like yours more better, It makes me more Blue!
Very good.
goddamit...Very nicely done. Are you familiar with Mike Nesmith's solo stuff?
That last guest was me! Forgot to sign in. Love this one Greg!!

This song has that *"Relax and let it wash over you"* feeling. Well done James
Interesting . . . Now what could we do with it?
W O W ! Now I understand all of the previous comments!
Very Pretty. I think you have one of those "soft centers" that you always hear about the tough talkers showing occasionally.
This is a *GREAT* song Nick !!! You have captured the essence perfectly. And even though I have told my wife repeatedly that the song is about a Train . . . well, let's just say she's on to you.
You can *REALLY* belt it out! I'm with Roger . . . I'm smiling!
A nice easy feel to this. Just what you'd expect from a *"fine looking woman"*
Raw talent is what this shows.
This might be one of my favorite *Gene Eric Man* songs.
Beautiful song! I love the video. I got a kick out of your comment regarding banjo and accordion.
This was the first of Gene's (Ricky) songs I remember listening to. That was back on *EZFolk.com*
This is the first of Gene's songs I remember listening to. That was 10 to 12 years ago on *EZFolk.com*.
I stopped by for seconds!
Simply Stellar Andrew! You hit the mark again!
I like this It has a gritty "loose ends" kind of feel to it , like life is not always perfect.
I just really like your style. This song is so inviting, it's like an old friend.
I had to play this one again. Beautiful!
Interesting technique on the guitar. Very creative!
I really enjoyed this. That piano sounds great!
Interesting bridge. I didn't expect that. You know how to keep the listener's attention.
