I’m very pleased with how the lead guitar break came out on this Political Folk song. The rocket being launched at the song’s intro is Apollo 11, carrying Neil Armstrong and company to Luna.
GOING TO TAKE A LOT
I’ve been watching for some…
A Sea Shanty with a bit of Psychedelic seasoning. Guest artist Starry Nightmoth performs the “harmonica” on a Yamaha KB as the song fades out.

This is really nice! I'm not familiar with your music, Gene, so do you write lyrics and music? Are you a one-man-band? This is the first song I've heard, it sounds a lot like Gentle Giant. Beautiful! Thank you
One of my personal favorite recordings from the 52 song MYTHOPOETICA demo collection, even though there’s a sound quality issue (the bass had a bit of a buzz). This was my first time using a wammy bar – I liked it!

This is the bonus track for "The Best of GEM" playlist.

One of my better Psych Folk recordings. Intro voice and keyboards by Starry Nightmoth. BG rhythm/drums generated using a Yamaha E313 KB. Lyrics, music and all other instruments and vocals are my fault.

Unconnected, re: noise reduction on I Lose Control v.2- if you want to, go ahead! I'd like to see what you're able to do. You can email it back to me at songsforthebroken@yahoo.com, and I will put it up and credit you. If you get any ideas while doing that and want to overdub something, feel free to do that as well! Thanks again for listening!

Have a problem with TV evangelists? You won’t have a problem with this number! This Psych Folk tune features Starry Nightmoth on church organ. The rhythm/drum track was generated using a Yamaha E313 KB, the rest is my fault.

Since you showed interest in my songs, I thought I'd check yours out too. But by god, this is impressive! Reminds me of 'Treasure Island' - one of my most favourite books of all time. Thank you for creating this. I love, love, love this.
Damn it boy! There just may be as many as 5 other people on this planet of 7 billion that can keep up with you on guitar. You should be rich and famous. I'm just blown.
Excellent performance by Gene on programmed drums, rhythm guitar and bass, with Farrell on lead guitar. I'm on vocals. Hope you enjoy us on this old Zep Classic................
In an online course on Einstein's miracle year of 1905 we had to do a creative project and I was going to submit this but never did. Hope you think it's funny.
I'm blown! You are one of the most awesome guitarists I've ever heard. What are you doing here, posting your music for free? You should be performing on stage before tens of thousands every night!
Reg Les and the TC Helicon Voice-live Trio.....Hope you enjoy...

I thought I was listening to Alice Cooper and the Coopertones jamming with Marilyn Manson and his band. Very professionally mixed -- great quality and tastefully compiled. You Rocked my day -- Rock on!
You know, you could write and record a bad song now and then, just to make us half-ass songwriters feel better about our own flops, but noooooo, you gotta nail it each and every time. Another Connor classic! Rock on!
There's a definite degree of a Bob Dylan element in this one. I like the flavor, the lyrics, the energy. You remain one of my very favorite Folk songwriter!
This was written at the same time as Laughing. The plan was to try writing songs that I could sing while playing the guitar. I think I played my first bedroom recording of this (with me playing my brother's drums, gasp!) to Mike the bass player…
So, fast forwarding to one of my most recent tracks--with guitar, flute, bass and percussion. 9 years doing this and my style remains the same, layering of instruments around a melody. I hope you dig it
I was going to release my songs in chronological order but decided to skip around instead. This one is a piece that revolves around a piano melody and adds percussion, organ, and mechanical beats. I had fun with this one and I hope you will find…
What an intriguing melody! You are very good at painting with sound -- very professional. You're a gifted weaver of music -- you must indeed have a fascinating mind!
I wanted to start by posting my very first track, which I composed on FL Studio, several years ago. Being my first track, it is not my best production- wise, yet it still embodies my main style on the tracks that follow - which is intense buildup…
A fine composition, an interesting melody, all done with taste and good musical sense. Digging the build up and graceful mixing and mastering job. Looking forward to hearing more from you! Rock on!
Oooh how groovy! The arrangement of chords, the hypnotic bass, the psychedelic vocals... what's not to like about this number? Excellent job -- Rock on!

Lore of Spring, great material. Love your style.
This is really nice! I'm not familiar with your music, Gene, so do you write lyrics and music? Are you a one-man-band? This is the first song I've heard, it sounds a lot like Gentle Giant. Beautiful! Thank you

Working over that cry-baby! Spewing some hot sounds. Great groove -- Rock on!
Bam! Getting down! Rock on, Brother, Rock the Hell on!
Damn it boy! There just may be as many as 5 other people on this planet of 7 billion that can keep up with you on guitar. You should be rich and famous. I'm just blown.
A very twisted, interesting, unique, cool rendition of an all-time classic -- Rock on!
I'm blown! You are one of the most awesome guitarists I've ever heard. What are you doing here, posting your music for free? You should be performing on stage before tens of thousands every night!
Rock on! I dig the grinding, grungy riff. The mix-down is very good -- the vocal track is clean and clear. I like that.
I thought I was listening to Alice Cooper and the Coopertones jamming with Marilyn Manson and his band. Very professionally mixed -- great quality and tastefully compiled. You Rocked my day -- Rock on!
John Lennon would have adored your out-of-the-box experiment with sound. Great job. Psychedelically delicious!
You know, you could write and record a bad song now and then, just to make us half-ass songwriters feel better about our own flops, but noooooo, you gotta nail it each and every time. Another Connor classic! Rock on!
You are the rift master! And you are the fret burner too. Simply put, you F*CKING R*CK!
There's a definite degree of a Bob Dylan element in this one. I like the flavor, the lyrics, the energy. You remain one of my very favorite Folk songwriter!
Rock on!
Wow! Just... wow!
What an intriguing melody! You are very good at painting with sound -- very professional. You're a gifted weaver of music -- you must indeed have a fascinating mind!
Do you do anything in Drop D?

So gorgeous!
Ha ha! Very cool! Rock on!
The flute is especially beautiful in this one.
