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!
Another version of this. Door-to-door-to-door . . .

I stopped back for a second listen. It's even better this time.
You have a lot going on in the song, and it's all going in the same direction.
You really know how to build a song!
My arrangement of an American traditional tune with tons of variations on title, lyrics and tune. I went for a little delta feel with some light slide on the guitar, and harmonica along with the banjo... definitely strange but I think it works.
Here's a song I recorded a couple of months ago when I had the flu ... as the voice reveals :)
Recorded early in the morning,in the bathroom, using the built-in mics on my boss br800.
Just a rough version of a song I plan to record properly during this coming February's RPM Challenge.

Nice acoustic guitar work, and great narrative!

Nice banjo pickin. You really caught the essence of this one.
Wow! This really captures the imagination
Great way to start the day! Very Pretty.
I grew up with John Prine and Steve Goodman. It was fun to listen to your rendition of one of his classics.
Go Get Um Johnny!

Sounds like love is in the air.
Interesting combination of musical sounds
Wonderful !!! Completely Entertaining.
Outstand Lyrics! Keith .... You really hit the mark!
I'm a sucker for an acoustic guitar. You hooked me once you started singing. Nice song.
This is a little different from what I have grown to expect from you. Very Pretty.
The harmonica really does it for me. You got a good bouncy song going here.
Call it what you like, I enjoyed it.
