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?!

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.

This is one of three songs inspired by the book THE HEALING OF FAMILIES by Fr. Yosefu - B. Ssemakula.
Only One
The Lord gives, the devil takes
One is love, the other, hate
One will bless, the other, curse
One reigns in…
Had a bad back just of late (working to hard) so i put it in a song,and my favorite painkiller is ? you guessed it WHISKY.
PS The backs feeling much better now!
My "banjo-centric" arrangement of this old minstrel show tune. I recorded it for backing tracks for my live set. I kind of wanted a fiddle solo, but I don't play fiddle. So in the middle there's a little "fiddle synthesizer" - just a couple of…
At last... I've managed to finish something.
This was written months ago. I was about to try recording it with one or two others when this year's decorating started. With various buggered fingers, back muscles, etc, etc, I wasn't actually able…
Great chord changes and build ups. Well done Andrew!

This is an old 19h century sea shanty (or chanty) arranged around clawhammer-style banjo, with a bit of Irish whistle, faux bodhrán, and a goofy pseudo-accent to Irish it up a little. Just in time for St. Paddy's Day.
Warning: the chorus can…
Writing this song was a very cathartic experience. This gamut of emotions took place in just one week - last week.
Unfortunately, I couldn't sing the first word without it sounding ridiculous, and so I decided to get back to my Northern roots…
Right from today's headlines....a shameful tune I just had to write.

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?!
Garrison Keillor would like this

Good song with well written lyrics.
Thank the Lord for medicinal use alcohol. Take as directed by your conscience, and call me in the morning. You got a great sense of humor!
Big Sound with lots of interesting parts
I just found this today. What a treat! I like that driving beat, and the whine of the harmonica. Excellent Roger!
Powerful You have some great sounding guitar licks here.
Great Song // Great Mix
Still the best version of this song that I have heard. I was at a jam last night where someone played this song. . . *Great Song*
