Well, Well, Well- There is still unadulterated, unabashed love in the world. Yes, the song is masculine sounding, no shock there, since I am a guy. However, despite a friend’s comments to the contrary, I didn’t intend this song to be about getting…

Hey Gary - I listened to your album on the RPM jukebox, and this is my favorite so far. I'll probably change my mind later, but I like the harmonies you did, and I find myself singing the chorous at random times. Well done, sir. I liked all the songs and I'll be loading them into my MP player once I finish downloading.
Regards.

Matter Of Fate- This song started as a riff I was doing while tuning my guitar. It sounded cool, so I happened to record it on a small dictation recorder I have so I wouldn’t forget it. When I listened to the riff it just screamed Sticky Fingers…
Figure Out- There are about 4-5 takes of this song, all different. The song started off in the key of D, but I couldn’t hit the notes in the chorus. I then tried it in A, but it was lacking drive and energy. I tried it in G, but I couldn’t get…

Keep Shining Through- Last minute lyrics…kind of a cop-out, since it’s a song about song-writing. I didn’t have any better ideas and after losing so much time from the outage I had to just bust out what I could. It was pretty much written on the…
Amazing foxy RPM album! How can so much fun be free?
2010 is an awesome year. Can feel summer early. Also loving the retro vibe - maybe it's just me, but there's a great 60s feelgood vibe in here.

"I didn’t intend this song to be about getting naked and f*ing in the grass somewhere. If that’s what someone wants it to be, fine with me, enjoy yourself or, preferably, you and your partner enjoy yourselves with this song as the soundtrack."

Derivative- This one was not supposed to be on the album, but I changed my mind and worked on it. The reason for the intended omission was because the riff, which I have been playing with for a few months, just sounded so derivative of Dear Prudence…
Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…

Love’s Standing- A good change up for the flow of the album, this one is vaguely, very vaguely, country-esque. That’s mainly because of the heavily reverbed slide underneath the acoustic in the verses. I love pounding the strings on the acoustic…

Written/recorded for RPM2017 (album in a month).
The last song I wrote for RPM2017 (being entirely written and recorded on 26th and 28th Feb). It should be obvious that this is a tribute to George Harrison - I'd listened to the album "Brainwashed…
Here's my last studio effort of the summer, as we roll into fall!
I wrote this one earlier in the year sipping mojito's at the proverbial beach bar and then posted it here.... I thought I'd give it a little sprucing up with the help from my…
Here's the second song I recently decided to do with a studio recording from one I wrote and posted here a while ago as a purely vocal version. It's one of my favorites.... I hope you'll enjoy it too
Singing In The Silence
Verse 1:
Singing…
Yes, I really did see the old Ford years later.
HERE AT LAST
Keith Landry: Vocals, Guitar
Liam Byrne: Drums
Brian Martin: Bass
They say the good times are gone
And they ain't coming back
They say it's been too long
And we're way…
Rendition of Stepping Out originally by John Mayall and the Blues Breakers. A little tone secret that Eric used on some of these tracks is he set his toggle switch to the middle position and turned his neck pickup volume down to about 7 or 8 by…
Just a taste of the ongoing project - a sweet little song about finding love later in life. Ultimately, Jessica will be singing the first verse, I'll keep the second, and she'll be harmonizing with me the rest of the way. The whistling will…
I've said it before, I'll say it again. This song is great just as is, so I look forward to what you'll do with it in a 'group' setting. An album I eagerly anticipate...
Recorded this one as a test track to sync with the video I shot for it. I am not happy with the computer virtual amp guitar sound on this. I will re-record this and mic my amp for that real cranked 100 watt tube sound.

A song about exactly how ugly local politics can be.
It’s time to play the blame game
Another chance for calling people names
Ignore the facts, they just get in the way
You see your chance to say what…
Countin' dem pennies from youtube clips
As I try to get rich in the music biz
Stream this, click that, a download or two
These days it seems it’s what we all do
Pre-Chorus
Micro pay me in slices of a cent
Hope to get enough so I can pay…

Excellent! Loving the new tracks man! They're helping me through the tedium of the shop today!
Good riff!! Handclaps are a nice touch too!
Very cool textures with all those guitar parts!
Nice one man!

Wow...this is incredibly inventive! Bet it was tricky getting it right, but you completely nailed it!
Gorgeous - sublime song-writing. Maybe would work as a duet also? Excellent...
What a summer anthem! And GREAT driving music!
I love those melodic flourishes you just casually throw in to your music. Very clever and a complete delight to hear.
The whole production and performance on this track (and probably all of them!) is fantastic, but I love the chorus especially. Vocals are top notch!
Classy old skool feel-good rock! Rock how it's meant to be.
Guitartastic :)
I'm picking up serious Boston vibes from this.. Maybe throw in a little Rolling Stones for good measure.
Ya'll nailed this tune.

My, oh my, oh my...what a perfect piece of music.
The bass on this is really tasty.
This is beautiful.
Great song, great song.
I feel like I am back in London, in 1966. What a great sound..
Love the feel on this one. Very summery, it almost 'sounds' humid. Great number.
Damn, James...Makes me want to quit playing guitar. Great playing, my good sir!
Brilliant...absolutely brilliant.
Tasty playing there, my good sir!
Great collection of songs, Keith!
Love the various keys parts on this one!
This is a killer collection.
Great song!
I love how your playing always sounds like fire blazing out of the strings...Fan-f***ing-tastic...
I've said it before, I'll say it again. This song is great just as is, so I look forward to what you'll do with it in a 'group' setting. An album I eagerly anticipate...
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant...
I like the sound of this, I can almost hear the beach. Great number!
Great playing. I miss Edinburgh!
I love the backing voxes and the gtr riff parts in this. GREAT song...
Kille chorus...
