Nice tune. I'm getting a sense that the roller coaster of Life is hitting one of the low spots for you at the moment. I was at a CSN concert back in the 80s, where David Crosby, introducing the song said. "When life lands you in serious sh**, you do the only thing you CAN do... CARRY ON!" And the boys launched into it. And It Was Good.

Great lyrics, love the Simian reference.
I once read a book about difficult people,
but he tore it up and tossed it out.
The tune is tight and druid in feel. I so like this one 5 stars
You are sooo good at what you do. you sing the especially well, just perfect for the music, which itself is just perfect for the lyrics. Again, it's that Connor magic!

I wrote this song about my father and Dementia/Alzheimer's over a year and a half ago. We just finished the song and video, kind of surreal because Dad is in a nursing…
Poignant and well delivered message! Sorry to hear that your Dad is in a nursing facility now. There are a lot of us dealing with aging parents right now.
From what you have shared with me regarding his personality, he’s probably making friends and enjoying himself.

And here we go - Edith FINALLY gets it...
Actually, she's been getting it ever since I wrote it on the 29th May. I thought it would take a week or so, but it proved to be more of a fight than I was expecting.

Pop-rock song. Recorded 2009.
I wrote this several years earlier and rehearsed it with the last band I was in.
The recording was my first "serious" project on my Boss MBR, I was stunned that you could do something like this on a little silver…
We got motivated to write something a bit light hearted about our Covid-19 Times.... I hope you'll laugh and sing along with Roger , Colleen, Greg and Steve on this one... any maybe raise a glass of your personal moonshine!!!

A simple guitar groove. Haven't sat in a coffee shop since before the lockdowns, and I miss the atmosphere and the music! This tune feels to me like sitting in a cafe.
(Every time I think it's done, I end up tweaking it a bit more in Audacity…
Update: Gene offered to improve the Mix on this song! This is that improved version. Thanks so much Gene! You are awesome!!!

As punch said to Judy " That's the way to do it"....
Some sweet banjo, and that low-noted lead break was very cool, and the lyrics just tickle me.
Yup A tele for sure, Nice move way to pull the community card. You gotta know when to hold em.
Oh Guys, thank you! This is my Uke debut so that's why it's not wonderful. Thank you Greg for letting me have a go! x
I'll be right over. Nice collaboration!
This version is sooo groovy! VERY GOOD JOB! "Come and get it" -- love it!
Oh Bee, you found a great melody line for this fun-tastic tune. Tip of the hat Greg. I'm gettin' a real kick out of this project.
Sweet Cherry Pie, oh my!

Great memories. You really paint a picture.
My feet are tapping!
Rita and I both enjoyed the video. We especially liked “the good wife” singing back up. I have to say the ending really got our attention.
My feet are tapping in sultry Minnesota this morning. Thanks for taking my mind off the heat for a few minutes!
Poignant and well delivered message! Sorry to hear that your Dad is in a nursing facility now. There are a lot of us dealing with aging parents right now. From what you have shared with me regarding his personality, he’s probably making friends and enjoying himself.
Wonderful medley of tones weaving in and out. Love it! That slide is captivating.
Love the slide and the topic!
Oh yeah . . . . You are on a streak. Another good one.
Wow is the word! Impressive.
Rainy days are good for naps but they can certainly mess with your head. Good song Roger! I like the ending, “Don’t let me down”
Outstanding song and message!
Rita and I are giggling this morning. You guys are a lot of fun to hang around with.
This is addictive! I love it.
I just discovered your Colab-O-Rama playlist. I listed to most of and just enjoyed every moment.
Sweet Memories
Great interpretation! ( I have typed and erased several times and now . . . . I'll just leave it at that)
Yes I could hear Colleen breathing, and as far as I can tell, it sounds like you were far behind trying to catch up while recording.
Is that a mandolin? Nice song.
Ahhhh ...... The good old days!
Rita and I are listening together. She wants to know why I never wrote a song about HER !
