Greg, the lyrics brought tears, silently sliding down my cheek, and a tug at my heart. The words have so much meaning and you found the true meaning of "Photographs" being a timeless picture of our memories. You have a special gift of music and I am so grateful you share with all of us.

Greg this is one of my favorites of all time. Your lyrics really touched me. And that timely harmonica just brings the bittersweet feel of the song. You are amazing!
A BIG, BIG thank you to Wildgeas who took my simple acoustic guitar song and turned it into a beautiful work of art. Arrangements and Production done magnificently by Paul Lennon (Wildgeas). Also, special thank you to Bethan who put her sweet…

Wow . . . A perfect example of Aristotle's famous quote:
*The whole is greater than the sum of it's parts*
Nick, Paul, Bethan, I hope you find another opportunity to do this again.

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…
I stopped by for another listen this morning. I've seen a few tributes to Gene. It's nice to see that.
It's been a little quiet around here since he's been gone.
Geas put this beauty of a classic up with the offer of exercising your vocals and i couldn't resist. thanks Geas for the chance to give it a go........
i got caught speeding in my car by one of those eyes in the sky and it got me thinking...... about the world we are living in and what its becoming.....or is that become?
I got eyes.....
They tell us that were safe in our homes

My Window
Lyrics
The stars go by my window each and every day
I can see the Earth about a billion miles away
the Sun is getting bright
It’s been so long since I left the atmosphere
I can’t wait…
With huge thanks to the awesomeinfinity Jake, Wrinkled Shirt, who let me use his gorgeous instrumental track "Gaza".
The sun left the city, from the ground
Moonlight woke up, falling down
Why are you scared, free as a bird
Now that the heat…

Beautiful Music! I had trouble playing the video.
Isn’t Catalina Island where the Great Whites migrate through? Yikes!
This is my first collaboration with the talented SLKrell! He had a reggae song called "Rancho Raggae" posted a couple of weeks ago in need of a lyric, so I asked If I could write some for it, and poof whala!! Here it is! Thanks Slkrell for the…
a live in the Cellar production.....
SINCE I'VE BEEN LOVING YOU
Since I've been loving
You've made me smile
Since I've been loving
Youve made Everything worth while
Since I've been loving
I've been on such a high
Now please help me not…
We decided to share one more piece of cherry pie! Thanks Greg Connor for this now epic song. Thanks to Paul for his beautiful music. Always a ton of fun to collaborate with!!!

*GREAT Fresh Approach*
I love it! The vocal on this is top notch, and the accompaniment is right there with it.
Oops . . . . I pressed *REPLAY* again.
If I'm not mistaken, this is Paul's 4th time around recreating this song . . . . That just tickles me!
This was a song I wrote last year, and haven't recorded until last night. We had a jam session at my place, so you'll hear some folks you know on this live recording.. Feels like a old time sing-a-long as I listened again this morning.

What a gorgeous song. I just love these lyrics and such a peaceful melody!!
As easy as that Greg, a simple sounding song, but I can hear the complexity of it ... just wonderful ...
Did you know the original recording was made by a group called Them Other Pluckers?
Absolutely beautiful imagery! Love the picking along the way giving such a quiet peaceful feeling! Well done guys!!

oh wow...what a gorgeous song!!! That guitar is so peaceful and played with sensitivity. Truly beautiful. Thank you :)
Love the chord structure and the minor feel. Excellent chorus and as always great vocals!!
Your vocals are really awesome on this! Kind of resonating akin to a Johnny Cash vibe. I love it!!
Gregg, Been there done that so it resinates in my memories. Picked my self up too and found my way. Good stuff. May I cover it? JOHN BENNETT

It's nice to see a few reminders this week of what we will be missing. Long live BB's music!
Paul . . . Excellent musical track. Reg . . . You can REALLY kick it in gear. Well done guys!
Yes, we're living in the world of George Orwell 1984.
Very fresh and enjoyable to listen to.
Beautiful Tess !

I love how your voice comes in, nice and low. And . . . then the build up. Well done!
nicely done
*BEAUTIFUL MUSIC GUYS* This is some articulate music with the perfect vocal track blended in.
Nothing better than a visual image of a *Tattoo'd Lady*
Your voice fits this type of song perfectly. You have the ability to really belt it out.
Yep . . . this is a keeper! Nice going guys!

This really got my old heart pumping this morning!
Yes, this is good . . . and what a great message!
This is *VERY* Pretty! Nice song writing Colleen! It's amazing that we can create something like this with only 2 bottles of wine!
