wow! it's all so good, your story line "lyrics" are quite poetic, and your play is great and fits the mood/tone of the piece so perfect ,, i must ask if the tune or the words came first, or sort of both together? in any case this first first rate!! happy new year r
What good song! Your guitar/banjo interplay is great, as always, and your lyrics flow with ease. (Note to listeners ... don't rely on your computer/laptop speakers or you won't get the most out of the oh-so-smooth bass line. Use decent speakers or headphones.)
Well don't forget you wrote Pop!!! ...was that this year or last?...Anyway this is great ..you know I love your banjo playing...outstanding vocals and lyrics as usual...
This is a mighty gorgeous number. You have a remarkable all around talent -- music, lyrics, and vocals. Thanks for listening to, and commenting on, one of the Late Danville Dan numbers -- it sure means a lot!

You know, you could write and record a bad song now and then, just to make us half-ass songwriters feel better about our own flops, but noooooo, you gotta nail it each and every time. Another Connor classic! Rock on!
A song with a long story (born in 1995, go figure!). Perceivable influences: Doors, Notting Hillbillies, Animals... Such long making combines, I think, my serious melancholy of those old days + a few thousands of hours of practice and 'stay cool…
THERE, I SAID IT
The more you got, the more you got to lose
From the top of your head down to the bottom of your shoes
The things you love. The things you abuse
It's enough to give a white boy the blues
I said it. There, I said it
It might…
Track 2 for the RPM 2015 album Cold Ground Was My Bed
"Yesterday was a den of sorrow, today is a bright mystery, the future a dim dream or ancient history"
Golden Days

Golden days, golden days are ahead of me
Goin' where the wind don't blow so cold
Endless Summer, soothe my soul
Where the streets are lined with gold
Golden days, golden days are ahead of me
HEAR MY FINAL SONG
Most were drinkin', four were playin' cards
Two were dancin', one he played guitar
He was singin' how she broke his heart
Some were smokin', smoke rings filled the air
One was flirtin', playin' with her hair
He was…
I just notice the comment made by *Big Time Operator*
*"Harmonica makes everything better"*
How true! That combined with Steve's Slide . . . it's like nirvana.

One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.
BEHOLD THE BREAD (Unleavened)
All of…
A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.
37 SAILS
Thirty-seven sails be a full rigged ship
Open up ye hatch and pour ye spirit down…
Old stuff new stuff.
Jb is Justified Brutality also if marked JB because I can't remember the password.
RR is Rectal Rip, and its worse than JB but is also weirder.
This song is for my work as an English teacher. I train up primary school children and then record them singing it. if all goes well, I give them an mp3 with their vocals in it and cut mine out.

This is my second piece for the RPM challenge... And it's a big milestone for me... the first time I ever played my own instrument along with it! It's rough, but you gotta keep trying and start somewhere, right? Greg Connor... you'll understand…
B U R N
That sensation you are feeling in your fingertips is progress.
This is a big milestone for you! I'm proud of you.
There is no going back now . . . no more putting up with some obnoxious guitar player who thinks he knows everything. Now the song will sound as you intended it.
I think those chord changes sound darn good and the ukulele turns out to be an excellent accompaniment for your voice.

Full moon, full of mystery
Full moon, shadows thru the trees
I can feel your spell, I’m beggin at you please
So long I been straight and true
No wrong has come into view
I can feel that dark side, all because of you
Way down…
Here's another contribution to the RPM this year Track 02....Reg is starting to realize whats important in his life.....

Banjo is a perfect touch on this. You have the voice to carry this song nicely as well.

Well played and sung Greg. Wonderful balance between the instruments.
Oh, yes Iam surely at home on the skinny branches.. that's why guitars come with cases. Faved, Yes the Bose speakers do the Tune justice

Nice one Greg.
Lovely banjo, harmonica and guitar picking combination.
I'd like to try that some day! Awesome tune!
Sweet, slick rhythmic lick! Fun lyrics. Real nice harmonica work -- mighty fine!
This is a mighty gorgeous number. You have a remarkable all around talent -- music, lyrics, and vocals. Thanks for listening to, and commenting on, one of the Late Danville Dan numbers -- it sure means a lot!
Very nice tune. Down home goodness.
Lips Greg Connor, has really built a sweet track. The Whistle is great sounding almost bending into the pitch, Wow
Oh how gorgeous!
The smile at the end says it all. You've captured a tranquillity in the song there. A great song and vid.
Lovely
OK NICE WORK
Clean straight away brillent
I like it,

Oh . . . this is good.
Ah the stark reality of life. The lyric about "where to get a drink" really got my attention.
Interesting percussive sound.
Nice Creative Approach. RPM will bring that out in a person. Very refreshing!
I just notice the comment made by *Big Time Operator* *"Harmonica makes everything better"* How true! That combined with Steve's Slide . . . it's like nirvana.
I stopped by for another listen. Nice work guys!

Ah . . . The good old days. I think I remember when this song was new!
This one got me smiling. Nice happy song!
Stopped by for another listen. I think you have to move to Savage. We could have a good time together.
I didn’t think people living in Portsmouth (Paradise) ever got the blues. It’s fun to catch up to you Roger!
O M G I didn't recognize you until I clicked play! That voice gave you away. Nice song, introspective and pleasing to listen to.
Wow. . . I had to stop by just to hear what "Rectal Rip" was all about.
Very interesting. That mandolin really perks the piece up.
I like this! Good song!

Oh yes. That's the stuff.
Good ear Ron! Yes, that's my old Dobro, built in 1973 tuned to open D and played with a slide.
That Wah Wah is fun!
