Looks like your How to Assemble has reached 100 plays, and all 5 Currently Kicking Ass tunes are STILL How to Assemble songs, but your is on top. Congrats -- I'd call that a hit, and you are once again "The Featured Artist" -- and that's a damn good choice!
Wow Greg! I saw this come in just as I was turning off my computer for the weekend... It's really beautiful. I love the pipes in the background and the beautiful picking. You should be sitting in the corner of a hushed pub in Galway playing this tune. Wonderful Irish Poem!!

I've just listen to all of these on headphones, so I could hear every imperfection, and they're all GREAT -- clean, masterful, professional mix downs, everyone. I'm dealing with a bunch of clever artists who take recording a mixing serious, even when the title includes the word, "Android." You sound great on these phones, Greg. Everyone does. So many responses, all of them top notch production. I'm glad that I came up with this idea, that so many accepted the challenge, and I'm so tickled, pleased and proud to be associated with all this groovy talent! Rock on, everyone!

Full moon, full of mystery
Full moon, shadows thru the trees
I can feel your spell, I’m beggin at you please
So long I been straight and true
No wrong has come into view
I can feel that dark side, all because of you
Way down…
Thanks for taking the time to listen and comment Greg. Keep recording - enjoy your work. Cheers! -- I wish alonetone would setup a "reply to comment" feature. ;)

haha… listening to all those old blues tune double entendres is impacting you. I'm still waiting for you to cover that Bo Carter song. I'll play harp on it! …gotta double fav this
Garn/Landry (And I barely deserve any credit for this one at all)
A while back, Jim recorded a rough version of this song, and upon listening to it, I was thrown back to a day from my youth. While vacationing in Vermont, a small twister throwing…
I had a basic melody and fragments of the words swirling around my head in the last few days ... so I sat down and made a song out if ... it took several rounds of playing to figure out how to present this, being part 5/4 and part 4/4 ... I finally…

You say
I doesn’t matter what I say
All the time we spent is gone now
Taken out
You cry
I'm not even asking why
Your head's up in the sky now
Your alive
When I ask you to explain…
A more cheerful version of The Mouse. JB and I thought the other a bit mournful - when we wrote it we were thinking of a reggae version...so this is it.
The last one for the day....what can i say it had to be done.....
Broken Dreams(Lyrics)
We’ve all had dreams broken
we’ve all wanted the absurd
i dream of being loved again
to hold and not let go
i’ve been waiting for a long time

Well the story continues...Munga is back and after his wife and Sweet Ronnie....they ran off to Jamaica and Munga is not a happy camper
Ron: all instruments and vocals
Lady Jane's one woman band! No loops today - I got all my instruments out - all being guitar (played with plectrum in neck without realising - oops!), bongos, rain stick, ting sha bells, tibetan singing bowl and tinkly bell thing from my miniature…
There's not a drop of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the puddles of this war.
But the blood that's spilled's become a flood
of the hungry and the poor.
There is not a trace of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the bags that hang beside
the beds of legless soldiers…

That's great news about getting a song in the movie!
Sounds like we have a celebrity in our midst.

This song is put together quite well. Very nice!
very nice Greg...the Irish in you has escaped...I hope there is even more to come.
Ahhh there is my Gordon Lightfoot fix!!! I really love when you do this style Greg...great great great
That's after bein' right a loovly tune, me boyo.
This one's a keeper.
Fabulous effort Mr.Conner. Lovin' it.
You are versatile in both instruments and genres, and from Sea Shanty to Irish Ballad, you do it all with heart and skill. Gorgeous! Encore!
Nice, Greg… you're a versatile guy! … I don't think that I've heard you do an Irish tune before.
Oh lovely stuff.
Well,now that just plain superb, I'll surely rewind this a score more times . The more you do the sweeter it gets,but this superb,!!!!!

Another beaut! Hilarious lyrics to boot. Love the cute ending. :)

Great way to build a song. . . Keep them coming!
Beautiful. It's as if the experience of flying is at hand.
Nice guitar sound.
I like it. The song has a subtle power that keeps building.
That's pretty good. If all else fails . . . Make Friends. I love it!
Very refreshing presentation. I like the message "All I needs is love". Reminds me of one of my heros . . . Tom Waites.
Entertaining and VERY Unexpected.
you got me laughing out loud on this one. Very colorful lyrics.
Munga may be back, but my vote is for "Sweet Ronnie" Go get em Tiger!
Beautiful
That's some fine playing Roger! One line really caught my attention: "She loves me so much, I have to ask my sorry ass why".
I love the Yodeling. Wouldn't it be great to wake up every morning Yodeling?
Very Pretty That harmony sounds fantastic
Norm said it . . . "This is great fun!" Nice going guys.
Nothing better than a party with all the instruments out at once! Sounds like you are having fun.
Nothing better than a "Big Mama" The harmonica is a nice touch.
This is a good reminder of Doc. Nice picking John.

How are you doing with the Texas Songwriter contest. I found Kavin's comment on the forum. I think that is pretty neat James! I hope you win!
Colorful lyrics! Very pretty. Call sign: KA0YCO
