Got dat ole Memphis honky tonk smell to it, yessiree Bob. Nice mix, and the tune, well, you just gotta smile. Love the stand-up bass sound. If that's midi it's real good.
Greg, at first i thought you were singing the song from Hair. But, your version is way better. You are getting really good at combining tracks together with your voice. :)c

Here is a Steve Krell song.
Buck Erpestad and I recorded live using two acoustic guitars.
Here is a link to Steve's original version : http://alonetone.com/slkrell/tracks/saskatchewanshostalconnorkrell
Thanks to Robert Palomo for giving this a little sound engineering. Robert said " I mixed thru my mastering plugin (Ozone 5).

A little tune to help me get through the winter ... used my 63 Fender Jazzmaster for the guitar tracks. This guitar has been with me through thick and thin and just gets better with age.

I was flapping around working on something else with just vocal and guitar the other day. It wasn't going well, so I just started slapping the guitar and singing one of my favourite songs.

Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Nice one
Very nice, indeed! Love the harp and vocals
Love the percussion!!! Great job on harmonica! Another fabulous Connor production -- a high quality mix down! You never fail to impress!

slkrell (172.248.226.134) said yesterday at 8:35am "Cool drums they sound boxy, Cigar?" Yes . . . Cigar Box Drums! What do you think?
Greg, at first i thought you were singing the song from Hair. But, your version is way better. You are getting really good at combining tracks together with your voice. :)c
Suburban thuggery and nearly low down close to the bottom blues
Honker tonker, Greg,I like it.
Cool drums they sound boxy, Cigar?
Outstanding
Really nice...good job
Be sure to send this to Gary…. I want to see his reaction to how you started off your harp solo! It left me wanting more. lol
Well now how'd I miss this one ! great collab from my two favorite Minnisota players
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.

Poetry . . . Well crafted, and superbly delivered.
This is JUST PLAIN FUN . . . .
Back for another listen. This goes well with coffee this morning. I feel like it's the sunrise singing to me.
Outstanding . . . I'll drink to that! Good Gawd, the bridge is FANTASTIC. I like the scream and the denial at the end.
Another GREAT video!
Now I'm watching the video. It's nice to know creative people!
I Just found this now! What a riot. I love the interplay between banjo and guitar. You are my FAVORITE musician in Russia.
Yes ... That Jazzmaster is sounding good.
As Ron Rouch would say "Good GAWD" That's funny!
Delightful. Finally . . . Something to contemplate
George Orwell tried to warn us. Now . . . here we are. Nice way to put it into a song.
Beautiful voice and accompanyment -.. . KA0YCO
One of my favorite songs too! I like how you belted it out. That's the ticket. You can feel the grit in there. Well Done!
I stopped by for another listen. It's facinating.
A rich and full sound. Beautiful
You have a nice clean approach to recording. It's enjoyable to listen to. Good song!
I like that banjo. A nice *"Feel Good"* song.
Way to bark it out! I Love Love Love it. Great lyrics, Great lead guitar. You really drove it home!
You gotta love RPM. That's when the creativity shows itself. Nice one!
