I've been teasing Steve (SLKrell) about Rose, from Las Cruces Nevada, ever since he wrote a song about her for Valentines Day a few years ago.
Rosie is a figment of our imagination. I wrote a song about stealing her away from Steve:

Feel the wind in my sails
Heading toward a brighter day
No more dark, dead end trails

Been a long time in the darkness
Bangin round where I can’t see
Smell the fresh air through the window…

Lyrics:
You think you know what you’re talking about
You get your way when you scream and shout
Look all around, you’ll find someone to blame
I’m just a pawn in your little game
I thought you were special, that was my mistake

I added some additional lyrics to complete the last verse and we played this around Greg's coffee table last night.
Greg Connor, Mark Lofgren, and Mike Rudquist on guitars and vocals with me....
Hope you enjoy this version as much as the first!
Greg Connor, Scott Zosel and I wrote this one today around my coffee table. It's been awhile since we've had a chance to do that, and it felt like "going home" a bit to us...
We wrote this in support of all those who are trying to find the…
I've taken up Kens Challenge to work on this backer with him.I hope no one is offended by this too much. Its just an opinion , i've tried to describe the conflict in American politics and the world to the new President Trumps and his attitudes…
We were around the coffee table on Thursday night and dusted this one off from my 2014 archive. Greg Connor and Mark Lofgren pitching in on vocals and guitars....

This song was written after I had watched a documentary about Jonestown, which featured music from their choir. They were very talented and I couldn't help wondering if any of them had survived. I'd like to think that there were a couple of 'em…
I was having my share of PESS (post election stress syndrome) and headed to northern MN to shake it off and wrote this one while watching a beautiful quiet snowfall happen. I recorded it finally today on my little TASCAM that we often use around…

Beautiful Greg Connor song,It's good here a new one.
Nice song. Very lonely sound. What's that that sounds like an auto harp? Very clean guitar sound. Crystal clear production.
Reminds me of Neil Young. But I'd rather listen to your voice than his. Never was a big fan of his that way.
Ahhhh! Greg Connor. I love it . You are the Man(friend)
