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

This is a piece in a microtonal tuning - but sounds very much like pentatonic in "normal" 12 equal tuning to my ears. But I work in microtonal tunings all the time and may be biased.
How "in tune" does this sound to you?

Kicked and punched, gagged and cuffed
They took him away, for what he's not
Then cracked his skull, as a gesture for his…
I usually like lyrics, but in this case (to answer your question) less is more. I like the way this hangs together on it's own.
As I said earlier, VERY PRETTY

The only music I can play in my living room these days is the odd lot of contemplative classical guitar, as anything else would wake up the family at night... :)

This is a guitar idea our friend Doug worked up for one of our Christmas songs. I'm posting it in case Amy gets a chance to listen from work. Hopefully we'll record a new, full version before Christmas!

I'm guessing that they weren't talking about your positive attributes.
Well ... there is nothing better than turning criticism into music. That's some beautiful piano playing.
Well Reg had an hour or so to himself today so he decided to let it go.......hope you have your Dancing slippers on you may want to shuffle to this one..........thats if the beat gets you.........it got me......

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.
Just listened again...trying to learn a few things...thanx
~All things will pass, yeah...~

Oh yeah... Love the words.
Well, I sent you a message but I don't see it. Trying again Greg. This is a lovely and happy song with really cool music. Gorgeous! Bee

Well ... I have even more appreciation for the piece now that I know what you are up to. I think it's exceptional.
I like it. It reminds me of Aaron Copland. I can see using something like this behind a video, or a mood setter in a collection of musical pieces.
Interesting story and totally unexpected, at least for me.
Great combination of sounds, especially Guitar / Organ.
I laughing out loud, nothing better than a "feel good" song. Go ... ELVIS ... GO
Nice full sound and it floats along just like a leaf on the water. The lead guitar sound is to die for.
I love the build up in this song, and the distorted lead guitar.
Interesting effect in there. I like the simple straight forward approach.
I usually like lyrics, but in this case (to answer your question) less is more. I like the way this hangs together on it's own. As I said earlier, VERY PRETTY
Reminds me of my hero Paul Simon. Great lyrics and the music is intriguing.
Pretty! I like the sound of that classical guitar.
Wow, this is beautiful
I'm guessing that they weren't talking about your positive attributes. Well ... there is nothing better than turning criticism into music. That's some beautiful piano playing.
I like the way this bounces. Now that Norm has mentioned waffles, I'm getting hungry listening to this.
I certainly can relate to this one!
Very Philosophical You can learn something from everyone. I like your musical style.
I can really feel the grit in this one John! Nice song, short and sweet.
I like that: "Don't Save Your Kisses" Good advice
I think you have touched the melancholy side of things here. Very pretty.
That is some beautiful guitar playing.
