Oh, Greg, you are brilliant. A master songwriter with a tasteful ear for what genre and instruments and style go with the lyrics, which you are also great at. Very pleasing, and much fun. I'm with Ron -- how do you do it?!

Featuring Norm on Percussion Track: "Pilón For A New Son"

Lyrics:
Searching for something
I wonder and roam
Hoping the truth
Soon will be shown…
LYRICS:
With Or Without You
Try to get along but it takes two
It’s a Whole lot of me and not much you
Working myself right to the bone
Thinking that I am all alone
Just like a monkey up in the tree
Throwing your feces straight…

Yes- one of the nicer elements of Minnesota winter. Love the natural selection line.. passed 5 accidents on my way into town that day that got me to thinking the same. Some folks just don't know when to pull back on the reins ... Good lyrics- good harmonies

Y'ALL'S VOICES BLEND BEAUTIFULLY TOGETHER! Really nice mixing/mastering job! Your vocal delivery, Greg, is particularly well done in this one. Sweet lyrics, and the guitar part was executed quite sweetly too.

Remixed unplugged.
I removed all the electric guitars and synths.
I also replaced the lead with a harmonica, re-recorded my backups, and ran the bass track through a fretless patch.
I like this version.
Thanks Michael - You've been a wonderful…
Vocals by Greg Connor, lyrics by Connor and Merry Bear, music by Bear.
And y'all thought the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about! This song is 4 dimensional – up/down, left/right, in/out, now/then. BIG THANKS to Greg Connor for fabulous vocals…
Been a while since I posted anything...(working on a secret project) anyway been feelin the blues lately so I decided to record this old blues tune...the lead guitar was recorded in one take so please dismiss some clams and relentless wanking…
There is nothing like the presence of a horse. The quiet understanding. The gentle strength.
Woodlake, California...1961. I had a horse. She was my friend.
There were times in my teens when Babe was the only being that did not judge me…
I'm almost done with this last CD by Wildgeas Music.
I'm retiring to new stuff and new gear :)

I wish to give many, many thanks to Bethan, Trevor, Michael, and Chris
for helping me create this collection…
I didn't mean to turn it into a Ballad it just happened your honor
He Was The Gypsy King To Me
i sit alone thinking of my father in this empty room
and all that he’d done for me
and i sitting alone in this empty room, thinking of what…
Winner – Tiggy Acworth 2001, re-released in 2010
Feeling down, I don’t know why
Remembering how I used to feel those times I cried
Running down this lonely heart
it just don’t feel the same now that we’re apart
And I know…
An old song revisited. My attempt of writing a Ye Olde style Folk song !!!! The old version is still deep down in My Tracks, be a where the sound is awful !!!!!
come away, come away
away from trouble
away from care
come away, come away
away from sorrow
away from fear
may the cool wind find you
through a thousand thoughts unsaid
gather you in
weary day behind you
and you can lay your head…
Finally, at last... I've got something finished...
Been working on this for a few weeks.
A bit of a rocker... (and an aging lecherous one at that)
I got it as close as I could and then mixed it loud... I've over-cooked it slightly - but…
A little ditty i recorded at the weekend and then sent off to the Mighty Two Regs to strut his stuff all over and man that boy can sing!!!
Cheers Reg,your a star!!!
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
I totally love this song! It's going to be the song in my head all this week, I am sure!!!!
Great job I think you met the challenge!
Nice job!
No matter which version of this song I listen to, in my head I hear you singing "Come and get it!"
Oh, Greg, you are brilliant. A master songwriter with a tasteful ear for what genre and instruments and style go with the lyrics, which you are also great at. Very pleasing, and much fun. I'm with Ron -- how do you do it?!

Comments made by Greg Connor
It's like taking a 5 minute journey. Haunting music with great bass line accompanying perfect vocal.
Nice organic feel with the acoustic guitar and harmonica
This thing REALLY swings! Excellent
This is a real toe tapper! Big full sound.
You have that distinctive sound. Well done again!
I love it! You should get the "BLUES" more often. This is first class.
Great sentimental song/story.
Wow . . . I like this! You really have a nice grove going here.
Great Vocal with lots of feeling! I like that acoustic sound too.
Beautiful song. Music is very inviting and compliments the singing perfectly. Nice work guys!
Nice *"Back To The Country"* song. I like that Open A tuning.
I. Think I know this woman that you are singing about. She really gets around. Nice harmonica Dave!
Good music! I spent a few minutes listening to several songs.
Sitting here on Saturday afternoon, playing along to your tune across the pond. *You gotta love the internet!*
This put some lead in my pencil this morning. Now I'm ready for the day.
Perfect Spring Love Song!
Still a *"KICK ASS"* Lullaby
*Bullseye* . . . ! You hit the spot Andrew!
Good to hear this today! Spring just isn't coming around this years. You got a nice refreshing song here!
You guys are both delivering the goods here. Good combined result.
