This is a fine recording as it is, clean and clear, well played and sung. I like it a lot. If Greg, Steve and I do a version of this, don't take down this one. Great job!

Years ago, when I had just started writing songs, I read a novel by Terry Pratchett (Equal Rites) that inspired me to write a song which I imagined as a soundtrack for a scene from the book where Grandma Weatherwax was riding on a broom stick…

It's a highland I call my land
It's an island in the sun

It's always number one

I'd occupy my wish

I must defy the rich

The decending line is about the coolest musical concept. Ear candy,and it can be Major or minor scale.Love my effects,but there's no substitution for plain old technique.
My "banjo-centric" arrangement of this old minstrel show tune. I recorded it for backing tracks for my live set. I kind of wanted a fiddle solo, but I don't play fiddle. So in the middle there's a little "fiddle synthesizer" - just a couple of…
My arrangement of an American traditional tune with tons of variations on title, lyrics and tune. I went for a little delta feel with some light slide on the guitar, and harmonica along with the banjo... definitely strange but I think it works.

Ha, I recognize that singer. Love this.
Its is for the most part true. I feel that having a garden probably gave my father a great sense of accomplishment 🧡
Good Stuff!
This is GREAT Terry!
Now That is Folk Music!
Terry -- good job!
Ah . . . Good Times!
I love this! I wish I had heard it before we put the other version up. I completely missed it until now.
'Tiz za seazun fer diz one! Happy holidays to you! Keep it real!
Gorgeous!
Sweet!
It peaks in places and buzzes my speaker at those points -- maybe bring down the volume by 3dbs -- but otherwise it's really cool.
Nice reverb and long hallway effect!
This is a fine recording as it is, clean and clear, well played and sung. I like it a lot. If Greg, Steve and I do a version of this, don't take down this one. Great job!

One of your better recordings, good music, powerful lyrics, sung well.
Ditto what Greg Connor said below me.

It's all about the dance, so keep dancing my friend. You have a gift for lyrics. This one says it all.
