My mate Dave did his Ringo bit for this one. He came with some songs title's. I was messing about in Open A (I think ) and came up with this. Thanks to Dave for the Harmonica.
Been meaning to enhance this one for years, it's about 4 years old, sure it came about after a trip to Liverpool. The Cavern Club's not the real one, but what a great sound in there. Thanks to the Good Wife for the vocals.
Ok, this came out while messing around with the original, which one I like best, I can't make my mind up. As always sure you guys will put me right !!!!
Ok I need a lay down now. Been meaning to revamp this for years, still in DADGAD tuning, original sounded to much of a dirge, come to think of it, hope this don't !!!!!!

First things first, many, many thanks to Greg for adding Bass and a Great Harp break. Don't tell my mate Dave, my normal Harp buddy, he's been ill with Flu.

This is my first listen to this one, and it's good stuff, like '60's beach music with a little psychedelica and grunge added in. What is it with you -- don't you ever write a bad song?!
Had to really push the good wife sing this one. After a couple of years of serious health scares she had lost all confidence in herself. Glad I did my 'Phil Spector' trick on her. ( No gun involved !! )
FABULOUS! I dig the guitar, the harmonica, the lyrics, the vocals, but the handling of the drums was especially clever. You're just too cool. Rock on, Blues man!

Lyrics:
High stepping, loud talking
Crazy S.O.B.
A self proclaimed ladies man
That know one else could see
I wish I would have had the chance
To…
I guessing, but did that cold blast of winter air create this good ole song ?
If it did, lets hope the DAMN COLD I'm suffering brings out one as good as this.

Lyrics:
Old Country Songs
Wooden Chair by the window
Gibson on my lap
And the time I spend strumming
Is never coming back
The sun is shining on me
Evening won’t be long
I’m living in the city
Singing…
Tell you what Greg, most us strain to write a song, you just pop them out, like this one. Just like that !!! A song that sure put's a smile on my face & makes me warm inside
New Computer - Just testing to see if everything works
Lyrics:
One kiss leads to another
Down the road we go
In each other’s arms
Love struck, drive me crazy
Hoping that you recognize
My charms
One kiss leads to love
One kiss…
Original song using:
Martin 12 String Guitar
Gibson J 200 Guitar
Deering Senator Open Back Banjo
Gibson SG Bass Guitar

Tonight - Written by Greg Connor
The wind is blowing hard tonight
The moon and stars are shining…
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…
That's really really good Greg, love that voice in the back ground.It paints a picture to me, snow, open log fire, a Scottish cottage with friends. Oh and a few glasses of Mulled wine !!

Wasting Time
Capo II and play in A

Wrote and recorded my first Xmas tune ...was supposed to be entered into a song contest but that site closed...all instruments except drums are played by me.
In memory of my cousin Mike, nicknamed Shovel Head, because of the Harley Davidson Shovel Head motorcycle he drove.

I can feel the wind blow
Lean into that winding road
Setting Sun against my skin
Shift into that high gear
Get…
