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…

Lemonade is an instrumental. It started as an early version of a co-written song with Mary Kealy Falk. We eventually settled on the 4th version of the project.

Just a rough version of a song I plan to record properly during this coming February's RPM Challenge.
EDUCATION REALITY CHECK
I work with children every morning
Check their progress every night
I'm an expert with technology
And interactive…
I dreamt a piano
with just a few keys
With limitless chords
and one melody
Caught by a cloud
who cried its last tear
it fell on my window

Ageless, weightless
nameless, shameless
Ageless, weightless
nameless, shameless…

Michael and I always have something going on, So I'm sure there will be more.

This is a live cut from an NPR radio broadcast back in 1988 while my Irish Trad group Scartaglen was on one of its first east coast tours. Found recently on a cassette tape. Musically this was one of my favorite periods in the history of the band…
First time through, WOW, that is beautiful.
Second time through, I'm just amazed.
You have captured that lonesome emotion that washes into the feeling of something bigger than us.
The drone supporting the whistle compliments perfectly.
Third time through ... even better.

THE CHILD WITH THE BEAUTIFUL NAME
What remains of an eagle that's fallen
The roots of an oak tree now claim
To draw sap for the shade for the cattle
O're the child with the beautiful name
The law…

O H Y E A H
Sounds like love is in the air.
Interesting combination of musical sounds
Wonderful !!! Completely Entertaining.
Outstand Lyrics! Keith .... You really hit the mark!
I'm a sucker for an acoustic guitar. You hooked me once you started singing. Nice song.
This is a little different from what I have grown to expect from you. Very Pretty.
The harmonica really does it for me. You got a good bouncy song going here.
Call it what you like, I enjoyed it.
Did you write this while you were out partying until 4:00 AM on New Years? I think I could learn a lot from you!
I like the sound of that acoustic guitar with an open sounding tune complimented by the harmony. Very nice.
Absolutely beautiful.
What a great slippery feel. You nailed it guys!
Nice music, and I really like the way you started out .
Perfectly Sparse

Interesting sound that you have created.
Interesting tone on your guitar, and intriguing playing style. It's very captivating.
This is beautiful!
