With Mark *"Sweet Lips"* Imsdahl on Harmonica.
This is a story about my friend with impure thoughts of stealing Lilly Pads for his carp pond in the back yard.
I guess it all started, Out in the dark
I was stealing lily pads, From the local…
Here is a Steve Krell song.
Buck Erpestad and I recorded live using two acoustic guitars.

I, like you, use to do electric guitar in my HS years, but also migrated to acoustic. Is that progress? I think so -- this song here would be much less effective if juiced up with distortion and wah wah and the other toys of our youth. This song is hard core as it is, and needs no electricity to get its message across.
One of my other hobbies is watching wildlife in the area. I'm the happiest with a pair of binoculars around my neck and my hiking boots laced up.
Rita and I took these photos over the last few days, near our home.

I recon this is my favorite Connor tune thus far. That is some coolacious strumming -- quite nifty in fact. The vocals and harmonica are exceptional. Yeah, this one really does in for me.
Dedicated to the Winter that never seems to end.

Such gorgeous picking, and awesome vocals, and as I said below from my Merry Bear account, fabulous lyrics. It's an overall brilliant composition. You really have reached a higher level, and you were up there to begin with. <3 <3 <3

I was passing by a darkened church this evening, as the wind danced through the trees, looking though the a window, i noticed a single candle lit, flickering on the alter step, casting a shadow within.. as i pressed an ear to the dusty glass…
Just musing about all the "can do" quotes I see on Facebook.

I’d believe in what you say and I’d believe in you
But I can’t play the fiddle no matter how many I try

First collaboration with Greg Connor for 2014!!
Greg's lyrics...he sent them to me along with his version and said I could do as I please...so I had my way with them and this is what came out.a little experimental…
LOVE IT !!!
I posted my version of "POP" for about 6 hours and took it down again. It just didn't "POP". This does!
Good one *Sweet Ronnie Cheesecake!*
Live piano, recorded with a touch of strings, no sequencing, its just my fingers, music made up on the fly. This is me just being creative, its how I "write" my music.

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Hey , Greg glad you got home ok! I wanted to drive you home from the party , but Kimmy took away my keys
love it ...has a really great fun feel!!! harmonica sound sweet!!!
That was just beautiful...well except for the dead wives. Who knew that lily pads could lead to love.
This might be my favorite *Steve Krell* song. Maybe Steve will record another version of *Saskatchewan* with his new Gibson J45.
This is really cool..I can hear this one being a rocker as well.
dig how this one just rolls along....
I can't imagine you would be lonely long with that amazing talent.

How purty!

VERY GROOVY, VERY COOL!

Very nice!
Quite an exceptional job, both in songwriting and in recording.

Great sound and lyrics Greg. Nicely done.
I don't think Ronny Crème Cheese knows how to favor a tune: look for the heart, then right click. try it you will like it.

Nice jazz sounds. You have a great touch on the guitar.
Good collaborative energy.
Beautiful . . . Excellent picking style on this melodic composition. The bass brings it home.
I grew up with this song. I remember my Dad singing it. Nice to hear it again. Thanks Dan.
That's a nice fresh sound !
A T T I T U D E That's the ticket
Just like a train going down the tracks. Very inviting.
Beautiful song. I also listened to a couple *"Atlantic Skies"*. Very impressive!
Endicott . . . You've been holding out on us. This is beautiful. Vocals are perfect for this music.
Good collaboration. Very nice fit!
I've listened to three of your songs so far. . . All of them keepers! Nice lyrics and Nice Licks!
