Lyrics:
Everyone is Irish on St Patrick’s Day
C Everyone is Irish on St Patrick’s Day
Cause F it’s the only Irish thing to C do
A F twinkle in the eye of every C I Em rish Am man
Will D leave you with a better point of G view
C Everyone is…
(Em) A legend that the sailors told
Tales shared from long ago
(C) Secrets that are captured in the (Em) air
(Em) It comes to you from far way
Whispered roars that fade away
(C) Answers that are carried on the (Em) breeze
Only (C) heard…
Just in time for St Patrick's Day . . . . And with any luck we might have a bonus "LIVE" Leprechaun track coming soon. The Minnesota Coffee table met and recorded a fun version last night.

This is a story about the Ojibwa migration to Chequamegon Bay area in Wisconsin. Inspired by a vision, the Anishinabeg (Original People) or Anishinabe (Refering to One Person) migrated west to where the food grew on the water (wild rice) and…
I loved the opening chords. You are a "Story Teller" with you music. I could see the sunshine like diamonds on the waves as you sang the chorus. Your music comes from your heart. Amazing lyrics.
There is a story behind this song. I'll leave it at that for now.

This is really poignant. Such heartfelt storytelling. I feel like it should be the soundtrack to a Ken Burns movie. Just excellent all around! Instant fav!,!

This is a little ditty I did for a local songwriting group I'm in. The prompt was "No instruments" and a previous prompt was "One chord only", so I combined the two.
The haikus were written for a creativity group I'm in, so I used them for…
I put up a wren house in the trees and garden where I was living and surprisingly a house wren moved in. Every day he sang his song in a repeating pattern ... a natural loop. I held a mic out the window one morning and taped his beautiful repetitive…

I thought I'd uploaded this ages ago!
Less chaotic 'Chaos' after I found a melody I was happy with, and the delay button :)
Enjoy! xox
P.S. I knew I'd seen it on here somewhere - it was uploaded by Jip under Third Quarter of the Moon :)
billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
Found a interesting sounding indian instrument via the computer world and strummed out chords on my lil midi guitar. Added some percussion, strings and a flute.
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
January challenge songwriting fun...
WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
I suspect Part 3 is coming soon. I enjoyed the originality of this story/song concept.
Fun to listen to.
I kept thinking of my niece, a young and budding actress. I could see her and her friends performing this on stage.
You might have a new career waiting for you . . . Playwrite.
this is my take on Joe Bonamassa's version of Blind Faith's "Had To Cry today"
a much shorter version...just wanted to record that cool lick and am trying to work on my vocals ... oh well ..what a time to try to learn to sing at my age...63 next…
Another quick scratch take, had to edit out a weird little noise from when the keyboard fell onto the guitar, but otherwise one take, render and upload. This will probably undergo a whole lot of revision to get a more usable center section and…
Any resemblance to the Yiddish word Chutzpah is of the purest intent. With a doff of the hat to Sheldon Alan "Shel" Silverstein ...and Mad magazine for all of their influences. that indeed did rot my brain
This song written by Mark Imsdahl..I found it over at Greg Connor's ...I liked it so much that I asked Greg and Mark if I could do an electric version of it and they agreed...i want to have Mark blow some harp on it when he gets back from vacation…
What happened after too much time on youtube watching live vids of "voodoo chile" Noisy obnoxious and very cathartic for me! Live to 2tracks with the Jamman
A complete re-vamp of a 6 year old song. Sure I wrote the lyrics while on holiday in Majorca, rewrote a couple of lines, picked up me ole guitar last week & just played this tune & it all seem to fit. Could need a lay down now !!!!
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
Excellent.....very current lyrics..like the added bridge....and the instrumentation is perfect
Perfect song for these challenging times indeed. I really love this song!!
Best musical start to any morning ever!!!
And this is my first encounter with this one... love the driving rhythm on this... and that whistle - wow!!!
The new playlist helped me rediscover this absolute masterpiece. This one so amazing!!! Fun to read all the comments from 2015 too....
And May all your wishes come true indeed. Love this tune!!!
The very best! Sorry I got distracted…. MN coffee on its way this morning
got to love this! Very fun and now I'm craving a bit of green brew :). Beautiful vocals....so warm and rich.
Very pleasant tune :)
You'll be needing some of the black stuff with that one :)
Ha ... put a great big smile on my face .... me thinks you need a Minnesota Wine table version .........
Fun song!!! great lyrics and just in time for the holiday...Erin go bra-less ...I hope:-)
I loved the opening chords. You are a "Story Teller" with you music. I could see the sunshine like diamonds on the waves as you sang the chorus. Your music comes from your heart. Amazing lyrics.
Oh, and GREAT PIPES part!
I like the "leave it at that for now" intro! Let the listener fill in the background; you've sketched out the foreground quite nicely.
Well done!
Well-crafted song and production. Good job Greg!
This is really poignant. Such heartfelt storytelling. I feel like it should be the soundtrack to a Ken Burns movie. Just excellent all around! Instant fav!,!
That's great Greg, what a Tapestry you weaved through words and music.
Oh yes. Love the pictures you're painting in my mind.

That is really a cool sound.
Very interesting. I'm glad you explained the concept. Third listen . . . Pretty neat idea.
This just makes you feel good.
That's it Stan. I just added you to the people I follow. Keep them coming!
This one *really* caught me! What a great idea, and well executed. You have created something special here.
Great sound to drift along with. I like the tempo changes. Delightful.
This is one of the freshest original sounds I've heard recently. Well done. Second listen now. Billy Boy just draws you in.
Good for the Soul . . . Just like you said.
Nice song. I like the tones you got out of the guitar.
You really know how to deliver it. I love it.
Interesting sounds. Really captivating! And like *Breaking Light* says . . . Let's see the Belly Dancers!
Great way to start the morning!
Nice one Keith. I even dug out the headphones to take another listen. Great song writing! I just pulls you in.

Love It! You are the Master!
That's pretty neat
Good Story!
Oh Yeah . . . I get an instant smile when I listen to this. Over the top . . . The only way to go.
Not what I expected, but definitely fun to listen to.
I liked the early version, but that's just me.
