So sweet, so beautiful. ROCK ON! You're such a soul man, you're layin' the grooves with so much love and color and warmth -- it's good to know I can always find a Greg Connor tune when I need it, right here on alonetone -- fabulous!
I dig how you mixed and and mastered all the instruments in this song to support each other just so. Your picking style, executed and delivered with such sweetness, is down-right sexy! Always enjoy your voice too.

You always have such a good mix of instruments ... each one is unique but works so well with the others. Great playing all round, but I'll mention the bass specifically because it's such an important "frame". Really nice vocals too!
Lady Jane's one woman band! No loops today - I got all my instruments out - all being guitar (played with plectrum in neck without realising - oops!), bongos, rain stick, ting sha bells, tibetan singing bowl and tinkly bell thing from my miniature…
There's not a drop of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the puddles of this war.
But the blood that's spilled's become a flood
of the hungry and the poor.
There is not a trace of RICH MAN'S BLOOD
in the bags that hang beside
the beds of legless soldiers…

That's great news about getting a song in the movie!
Sounds like we have a celebrity in our midst.

In splendid honour of her majesty queen elizabeth 2nd, celebrating 60 years of being the queen of england and the commonwealth nations. God bless ya maam.
Here's another little something that I somehow got sidetracked on posting.... Thanks for the jams Norm! One of these days I'll bounce something fresh your way....
Inspired by a line in one of the many books I read while laid up with a recent back injury.
Song of The Raven Queen

As The Fool set sail in an old milk pail

A re-visit to a song wrote in 2008. A simple song, in my subconscious I think someone like the great Hank Williams was having a poke about. And no, I don't compere myself to him or other greats from the past. I'm just me !!!!

Hey Vern! Have you heard what Greg is singing now? We should sell the cow and get us one of these!
Now yer talkin', Greg. We know all about them ripe tomatoes!
I'm enjoying discovering your non-banjo stuff. Production is getting really good. Clean, nice sound image... something that still eludes me.
Always loved this Greg. Smooth & juicy....Good enough to eat !!
Got the wind in my hair Greg, All Six Strands !!! Good One
Damn! Now I miss my old '67 Caddy convertible! Oh Well- too damn old for that stuff now anyway!
Here it is, the blues; (:-blowing:-)
Thoroughly enjoyed the video, the music, the song and the market.
Ok! Deal! It has to be red!
Laughed at your lyrics. Been there, done that. And my hair is right where it should be, thank you very much! ER
You are on a roll....very nice!!! oh and tell Rita to get you one of those.
Oh! Nice pickin! We could split the cost and share!
Diggin' on the banjo.
Man this is a road trippers joy, A man his girl and a top down toy

Ha ha ha, Hair blowing in the wind and all the way down the road.

That's some fine playing Roger! One line really caught my attention: "She loves me so much, I have to ask my sorry ass why".
I love the Yodeling. Wouldn't it be great to wake up every morning Yodeling?
Very Pretty That harmony sounds fantastic
Norm said it . . . "This is great fun!" Nice going guys.
Nothing better than a party with all the instruments out at once! Sounds like you are having fun.
Nothing better than a "Big Mama" The harmonica is a nice touch.
This is a good reminder of Doc. Nice picking John.

How are you doing with the Texas Songwriter contest. I found Kavin's comment on the forum. I think that is pretty neat James! I hope you win!
Colorful lyrics! Very pretty. Call sign: KA0YCO
Beautiful song, very clear recording.
I can feel the paddle dig in to this tune. It's a winner John!
Now if you can just get Charles and Camilla to dance to this!
Yes, I can imagine snow while listening to this beautiful music. Well done Don!
I like how it builds, just the way I imagine a Lazy Sunday feels.
This is "FUN Music"
Very melodic and enjoyable. Reminded me a little of one of heros . . . Ian Anderson.
Iteresting landscape of percussive sound.
A true love song! Go get her tiger!
Beautiful . . . It just keeps rolling along. I think I heard a little harmonica in there.
