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
Looks like sunshine all the way
Aint no stopping me now
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
You thought…
Feel the wind in my sails
Heading toward a brighter day
No more dark, dead end trails
Looks like sunshine all the way
Aint no stopping me now
Been a long time in the darkness
Bangin round where I can’t see
Smell the fresh air through the window…
I just bought a new Gibson SG Standard guitar with P90 pickups. I bought it after listening to Steve Krell's Gibson Gold Top with P90's.
Here is my first recording with the guitar.
Lyrics:
Sitting in my living room
Sunlight will be fading…
Feel the wind in my sails
Heading toward a brighter day
No more dark, dead end trails
Looks like sunshine all the way
Aint no stopping me now
Been a long time in the darkness
Bangin round where I can’t see
Smell the fresh air through the window…
Wow, that is some very fine harmonica-playing! Great backing guitar as always, and your voice is really sounding good. Also ... I've said this before in other comments, but it bears repeating that you do a wonderful job with recording/mixing.
With My Sister Kathy Bores
Last Waltz Of The Evening
The last waltz of the evening
Last dance of the night
I’m making the most of each beat of my heart
Music plays and I’m holding you so tight
Hard to see it come to an end
But it’s going to…
Feel the wind in my sails
Heading toward a brighter day
No more dark, dead end trails
Looks like sunshine all the way
Aint no stopping me now

Heading toward a brighter day
No more dark, dead end trails

Growing up in Ohio we used to see the signs the hoboes left on trees and mailboxes. Bits of ribbons and cloth-signifying friendly,and-cold hearted bastards who'd sic the dogs on you.
a new song I'm working on ... recorded on an iphone ... lyrics below ... enjoy (or cry your eyes out ...) ... love to hear what you think.
It's been a year, four months and a day
Since that time you slipped away
Disappeared right out of…
I'm amazed you recorded this on an iphone. It's very good quality for that.
Your guitar sound great, the lyrics tell a sad story, but are delivered well.
I thought I was going to have us record a cleaner version of this - this is a live take from a Christmas service. I wrote a song to tag along after the end of one my favorite songs ever, The Star Carol. Today's endless streaming of snow, still…
This year will be my fifth year coaching one of my daughters in tee ball, and although I played ball competitively into my thirties, coaching the kids is easily the most fun I've ever had on the diamond.

Had to really push the good wife sing this one. After a couple of years of serious health scares she had lost all confidence in herself. Glad I did my 'Phil Spector' trick on her. ( No gun involved !! )
This song was written on guitar by Kari Eskola from Finland. He sent me his guitar track along with this fantastic vocal recording by Emmi Inkeri asking me to replace the guitar with a piano accompaniment.
I tried my best, knowing that I'm not…
I promised you the world again
Everything within my hands
All the riches one could dream
They will come from me
I hoped that you could understand
That this is not what I had planned
Please don’t worry now
It will turn around
Cause I need more…
Ok lets get some oldies out, this and the next two tracks was recorded on my old recording studio machine. Ah, the good old days,rose tinted glasses of course !!! Or is it just me ......
I was thumbing a ride along a hot, deserted Caribbean road. When Steve pulled up in this vintage pre-war Chevy, I was very grateful. It just so happened he was heading to the same cantina I was, so we kicked back with a pitcher of mojitos…
Comments on Greg Connor's stuff
be careful she could turn into our Desirea.......
excellent ...loving that harp
i agree a beauty of a track.......
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)
Ya just keep gettin better
Sweet song! I love P90's as well
Wow, that is some very fine harmonica-playing! Great backing guitar as always, and your voice is really sounding good. Also ... I've said this before in other comments, but it bears repeating that you do a wonderful job with recording/mixing.

I'm waiting for the video now! I want to see you do the "Chuck Berry" across the stage. You got the vibe here. My feet are tapping.
Good Lyrics and your guitar playing is always a treat.
It's a Chart Buster! The birds really got my attention. Is that a 12 string? Yahoo . . . Spring is coming !!!!
I like it. It just bounces along effortlessly.
I'm amazed you recorded this on an iphone. It's very good quality for that. Your guitar sound great, the lyrics tell a sad story, but are delivered well.
A nice unexpected surprise! Well Done!
Yes, this is a good one! I'll put it on the "Spring Time" album when the time comes.
Nice Rich guitar sound, and melancholy vocal. Good combination.
Interesting ... It brought to mind a video that I have of the Grateful Dead.
Good lyrics . . . as usual. Great "Easy Listening" Song!
A provacative story, and the scary thing is that it's true.
I got a big smile out of this one! Great way to start a Monday.
Nice Relaxed Presentation with Good Vocals
Very refreshing!
This has the delight of the evening, and the dull throb of the morning after ..... all in one! Happy St Patrick's Day my Friend
Ah ... A Lovely tune indeed.
This is a beautiful song, and the piano and voice are wonderful.
What a great refreshing song!
I can just about picture you with rose colored glasses singing this song. It's very light and happy.
Pass me something with Rum in it. I'm feeling tropical.
