Greg, this song and lyrics are amazing and completely touched my heart as silent tears slide down my cheeks. A tribute from the heart for your mom with love in each word.

Snow on the ground. Wind and temperatures below zero. It's time for another coffee table evening.
Recorded live around my coffee table with:
Mark Lofgren - Lead Guitar & Harmony
Colleen Dillon- Ukelele & Harmony
Greg Connor…
Inspired by Last Week's Winter Storm where the only people out driving around in it were the people trying to prove Darwin's theory of Natural Selection.
Vocal addition by Colleen Dillon. Colleen also suggested the topic *"Winter Tune…
Lyrics and Chords:
Winter Solstice
Written by Greg Connor
When the G days are short, and the C evening’s so D long
And the C wind is D shaking the G trees
When the cold snow crunches C beneath your D feet
And your C cheeks are D…
It's been a long absence from a regular daily practice of song writing. Covid and a major change in the family has distracted me for well over a year. Recently I've been lucky enough to drift back into old familiar things like wine soaked evenings…
"Destiny will find you when you think you're in control. Destiny will find you and rip you a new ass hole..." (Sorry. I couldn't stop myself...destiny, you know.)
It's been a long absence from a regular daily practice of song writing. Covid and a major change in the family has distracted me for well over a year. Recently I've been lucky enough to drift back into old familiar things like wine soaked evenings…
When you C reach the Em point
When it’s F all in the rear view C mirror
And Am reflection is your G only point of C view G
You C feel it Em inside
When it F becomes so C clear
There’s Am nothing that G you can C do
F Hold on to G memories…
I went over to Reg's place the other day and he sort of scared me. He was out on his deck, pitching butts and spilling gin that he couldn't afford. He was a mess and had a crazed look in his eyes. I could tell he was ruminating again about…
More ambient experimentation with my fretless guitar and Roland GR20. This time I used some sounds from the magnetic pickups as well as the midi pickup. Kind of a cheesy synth patch I know, but it was working for me!
This is a collaboration with Greg Connor (check his song list here) Greg wrote this about his Heritage Millennium guitar and Heritage guitars company in Kalamazoo. He sent me his vocals and rhythm guitar track and I added lead & bass guitars…
This was completely written by Andy...he wanted to enter this in a song writing contest for a Humane Society thing in England...the song had to be about a dog's poor life and death alone.....I think he did a great job all I added was the guitar…
Well I see it's that time of the year again, where did that year go .......So here's an old one from 2007. Got my Grandson to sing on it, something to embarrass him with when he's older. He's 10 next week, so he was 5 at the time. Bless !!!
My father's Uncle Roy ran shoe repair shop in Mt Pulaski from 40's till in the 80's or so.

I step out of the car
I don't know where we are
Somewhere between a planet
A planet and a star
I never dreamed I'd end up
in a place like this
The Multnomah Falls is up the Columbia Gorge
Somewhere between Portland…
Closure The look in your Eyes
Took me by supprise
back to a better place
Where I could feel
Oh how we breathed the air feels much lighter now.
You talked of us.
We spoke of trust
I heard your words today
A promise i'll keep
if you should…
I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I'll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn't pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today…
This is the third, maybe forth time I recorded this tune.
I like this one best.
taken by surprise
a fine disguise
they came from across the sea
always moving closer
my eyes could see
then they called in the calvary

My attempt at Folk music !!!! I blame Seth Lakeman, after seeing him in concert this popped out. Been meaning to re-record it for months, now seemed a good time....... as we survived the Cruise !!!!

Really makes my imagination run wild. Nice going guys!
Etherial and thought provoking. It gives me that sense of drifting. I think Sister had the idea . . . *"Filmscore!"*
Very Pretty Roger!
*GOOD GAWD !!!* Stopped by for another listen

If this is bored, then we're the benefactors. Beautiful melody.
Yes, sad song, but well written. You guys did a nice job on it. I especially liked the intro.
This is special . . . nice duet.
It's fun to catch up to you again Verne! You are a great story teller.
A complete thought in just over a minute. Nice little gem. I had to press "*PLAY*" twice. . . still hungry after the first time through.
Nice refreshing sound.
That's really pretty Jane! It draws a person in.
I stopped by for an extra listen this morning. I like the Pan Flute here. Nice touch.
Oh yes . . . is this a true story?
This might be my favorite so far. Nice presentation Terry!
I love the bending notes. Very happy music.
Beautiful
Interesting sound that you have found.
Nice going Amy. You have a great voice!
Ahoy! I like the open sea flavor too. Well done!
