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!

Love It! So fitting for this morning when I have 6-8 inches of snow in my drive and it's md-April. I like you voice track added to your singing and the mandolin. :) c

Nothing beats when the MN songwriters convene. Greg and Colin sure brought some awesome sound to this song at the coffee table to improve the version that I recorded myself earlier this month. It's what I call a TOTAL MAKEOVER.
Thanks guys…
Recorded this one as a test track to sync with the video I shot for it. I am not happy with the computer virtual amp guitar sound on this. I will re-record this and mic my amp for that real cranked 100 watt tube sound.

Ok, before I go any further, I need to thank Alonetoner Greg Connor. He proposed a song-writing challenge around the theme of "Who Knew" in early/mid December. Many musicians here in the Alonetone community wrote some amazing songs around this…
Well ... I tried to log in on my iPhone and learned that I am only a guest. Rita and I listened to *"Taking Back What's Mine"* over a Bluetooth speaker in the living room this morning and as I said in the previous "Guest" message, lots of emotion and imagery!
I'm impressed with your guitar playing and the tone from your new guitar too. Very nice!
This one is still a bit rough, but I wanted to share and see if anyone has an interest in adding some guitars, bass, other vocal parts for fun. I left the chords in the lyrics below, in case you wanted to collaborate. I hope you enjoy it…
One after another . . . Strong lyrics and a great melody. Excellent!
I see you decided to put Laural & Hardy's version out of its mystery. Good choice. We were making it much more complicated than it needed to be.
This is a song by our guitarist Keith. He doesn't get a chance to jam with us as much since he moved to New York. He and I had a lot of fun working on this simple tune, and it makes me miss times long gone.
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
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!!
good song.....
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.
Perfect Greg, for this glorious sunny Good Friday, and it reminds me, must get some strings for my Mandolin !!!
Wonderful song... yes, winter go away
Another great tune....sweet melody and of course I love the mandolin...did you have a mandolin, I forget?....guess I got fired from the band now that your playing Mando too!!!!

Lovely, That Mandolin sounds so sweet, is that a breedlove Greg?
Ahhh... been learning mandolin have we? Still struggling with mine.
The long unusual drought has broken - nice job Greg.
Comments made by Greg Connor
Still one of my favorites!
Another masterpiece! Lots of fun playing music around your coffee table.
WOW !!!! You really know how to stand up and deliver!
I stopped by for a little listen / Primer . . . getting ready for Thursday night!
Love that bass coming in! Good build up all the way through.

Oh, this is pretty!
Great Song, and good company sitting around your coffee table!
Well Done!

Another strong contribution. It's great to hear so much of your music here lately. Congratulations on the RPM Victory!

Yes, I like this version too! Clean with just a bit of attitude.
Cheers!
Congratulations Grampa! Nice tribute to bring your Grand daughter into this world.
I can tell you are having fun with this! It's contagious.
Ah ..... Minnesota has created two new Poets! *Keep on Truckin!* That Tax Man has been circling around me lately too.
Instant smile! I can hear *"Sweet Baby Kenny"* blowing the harmonica in between sips of Jameson.
