That's some dandy picking on both the guitar and the banjo. Great vocal job. Fun lyrics. You've done it AGAIN! So glad you're here on AloneTone <3 <3 <3

What a great collection of sounds! A fabulous rhythm section, however you did it. Delightful lyrics. And, as always, delicious job on vocals. Way to go, Greg!

Greg, Gene Eric Mann / Justin Otter Guy / Merry Bear here to tell you, you have the magic. You just don't know how to write a bad song. This one's another gem -- sweet.

Recorded Last Friday - I sprung this song on Mark Imsdahl while we were playing music together.
I thought he did pretty good for never hearing the song before.

I love my mini van, lot's of room. I could try to make it sound cooler by saying I'm using it to lug my gear gig to gig but mostly it just gets the family where they are going. Cheers!

This is one of my favourite traditional tunes, for sure. This one pairs well with my last upload, A Harp in the Night. Maybe the two will become a medley... anyway, enjoy!
Trying out a new strat: not letting myself work on details on the computer until the skeleton of the song is complete. Result is a lot of variety in songwriting, but a bit rougher arrangement/mix.

Thought I'd share something from my latest project: Putting together instrumentals of public domain songs to use as intermission music for a community theater production. We got dinged for streaming copyrighted music in our previous production…
Sometimes life tends to repeat itself if you're not careful.... Good to find a moment to recognize old patterns and shake them off.
Great help on this one from the MN Coffee Table Gang - Greg Connor on guitar and vocals, and Mark Lofgren…
I found a CD with a lot of my old songs on it, many I have re - recorded and are on here. This one I had forgot about. The Good Wife does her bit on it.

Greg, Gene Eric Mann / Justin Otter Guy / Merry Bear here to tell you, you have the magic. You just don't know how to write a bad song. This one's another gem -- sweet.
Too cool.
Wait up I'm coming with you!
Your line of credit is good over here in Dakota County, Greg. I have a full bottle with your name on it waiting for you… love the tune!
Been wonderin' if yer muse had departed. Just on vacation I see. That there's a Country Keeper.
I agree ... great mix, great bridge. Your various instrument voices always cooperate so well with each other!
This is a really great song Greg! I love the music too. Cheers Bee
That instrumental bridge is great!!!!!! more, more, more, Who -Dat
Very "catchy" tune. Love your instrumental mix.
Hey Greg...this one has a feel good sound....good to hear new music from you.... love it!!

I love my mini van, lot's of room. I could try to make it sound cooler by saying I'm using it to lug my gear gig to gig but mostly it just gets the family where they are going. Cheers!
Ohhh ... lovely intertwining of mando and low whistle. You set a beautiful mood right in the first few measures.

You old softy! This is a beautiful love song.
I like your style of playing. I play a little music with a friend who plays harp. It’s a beautiful instrument!
This is beautiful
Nice song! You mentioned it was rough, but it doesn’t sound that way. I think you’ve captured it.
Well done Tilden! The circumstances made me chuckle. Those Rosemont people will make you work for it.
I love it!
Great message! Let's see if we can live up to it.
Where … oh where is Lady Jane? I stopped by for “Just a Minute “
Slide and harmonica … my kinda song! Nice lead break at the end of the song.
Good advice! Very relaxed and solid presentation.
I'm giggling out loud. THAT WAS FUN! Great song Colleen. Thanks for including Mark and I in it.
Great message. We need more of this.
Good story! Ezyfolk was a long time ago.
I love this! What a beautiful piece.
I like it! Beautiful message.
I like it! It drifts along comfortably. This would make a great background on one of your videos.
Please don’t send her my way!
Beautiful imagery presented by your two voices. Very nice..
That's what we need . . . Human Kindness. I like the electric screw driver sound.
Reflective quality in a very stark light. “on my own” does that mean unsupervised?
