What’s on your mind
Are you losing confidence
Someone’s been unkind
And caring becomes a consequence
Look for a reason to smile
The Sun will shine your way
Look for a reason to smile
And watch the clouds drift away
Feeling like you…

Nice, a little Beatle sounding which is a good thing to me!! I like the way you double tracked your voice..at least that's what it sounds like..... did you sing it twice or just used computer magic?
love it!!

Mighty cool - and very clever - song. We've all met one when we didn't need or want to... and... er... I strongly suspect I've done it to others myself!!
Fresh breeze on Lake Superior
And waves collide with the shore
The sailor must be watching
For gusting wind we can’t ignore
Loose the main, correct the healing
Point the bow to the wind
Recognize the peaceful feeling
In this sacred…

It’s like floating down a river
When you’re not quite in control
That river’s going to take you
Only where it wants to go
So you reach out with conviction
At debris along the way
That river’s going to take you
If you give up and say…
My wife Rita mentioned that she had not heard my dulcimer on any music recently, so I tuned it up and wrote First Morning Light. A little Low D Irish Whistle flavored it just a bit.

That guitar sound is amazing. How is this recorded. Every element is crystal clear. Your voice too. 'There's a row boat in the distance,,," So suggestive of more than meets the ear...
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
it’s been falling for years
Ageless, weightless
nameless, shameless
Ageless, weightless
nameless, shameless…
This is the fourth song from the Thomas - Lennon project.
A collaboration with Michael Thomas of Cave Street.

Michael and I always have something going on, So I'm sure there will be more.
Lyrics and…
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…
This is a piece in a microtonal tuning - but sounds very much like pentatonic in "normal" 12 equal tuning to my ears. But I work in microtonal tunings all the time and may be biased.
How "in tune" does this sound to you?

Beautiful. "And the fragrance of the Summer lingers on the scent of the morning dew."

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!
Well ... I have even more appreciation for the piece now that I know what you are up to. I think it's exceptional.
I like it. It reminds me of Aaron Copland. I can see using something like this behind a video, or a mood setter in a collection of musical pieces.
