Holding down the borders
What's mine is yours
Folding down the corners
Of pages meaning more
Walking on the wire
Never thought to look for…

Gary and I did something good.
ONE AND ONLY
How many times have you been captured by a camera
With no one really knowing who you are
Caught in the sight lines in the background
In the corner of their eyes
Never looking closely at the…
oh ya,,,,,about 3 seconds into this your playing alone, had won my heart, this is,,, something i must listen to... right away again,(and i don't usually do this), the music/play/arrangement is brilliant.. and the lyrics are poetry that goes right to heart,, (on the level of a P Simon or J Mitchell, in my view),, most wonderful! congrats two both r

My first completed 2013 RPM track. Thanks to Kavin for turning a simple acoustic song into what you hear today.
ONE LAST DANCE
I never got to tell you what's been on my mind
It might be just as well now that we're running out of time…

A quick little tune written in appreciation of a small expression of contentedness.
I can see in that little smile
You're living for the moment
Every once in a little while I catch it
No one else could match it
You're more than meets the eye
We're so quick to judge others. We really shouldn't.
This one follows the tone of It Mattered To No One Else. I actually had a lot more song ideas like these two that I thought would end up being the whole record. But it didn't happen that…
Similar to a couple of other tunes this year, the How Many More? chorus idea has been floating around my addled head for a few years, but again, it wouldn't come to shore. But in promising my ideas that I never give up on them, I tried it again…
The Again, Again, Again line and melody has been flowing through my brain since 2017 or so. But if we are merely vessels for songs that are waiting to come to our shores, I was a leaky boat for a very long time and couldn't make the journey without…

Another one where the riff came first, on the last day of RPM 2020 actually. Before all the craziness struck. I thought to myself "Oh self! That's a good riff! I will need to revisit it next year for RPM 2021." So I did. It also has a call-back…
Never forget the simple pleasure of just listening to music. I wrote a whole album about it a few years ago called The Lost Art Of Listening. This one's about how a song can simultaneously take you away from the concerns of life, yet make you…
I can actually hear Daltrey sing this with Townsend providing harmonies. Dang, Gary. And the song just gets better and better as it progresses. Just, dang.
What else can be said of the last 12 months? Everybody wants a piece of my time. Get in line.
The riff came first and I walked around for days just banging it out non-stop. Hammer-ons for fun and pleasure...
Originally I had a Motown idea in mind, and I kept my stomping and clapping, but the song seemed to lend itself to a more spacey-synthey feel, so I ran with it. I also am hinting a tiny (very tiny) bit at Joe Jackson's band's backing vocal styles…
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
I just favoured this but it's not showing. Perfect opportunity to listen again.
Sheer class, captures the fragility of a worsening relationship perfectly.
Jana and Andrea are just out-of-control good.

Yeah, Gary's that good.
Ooh, that's nice.
Musically so sparse but emotionally filled to the brim. Love it.

Comments made by Keith Landry
Yup. This is good. This is very, very good.
...but Pete Townsend definitely had final say.
It just hit me. This album is what would happen if The Who and Styx were put in a room and told, "Don't come out until you've made something amazing."
Favorited with the opening notes.
Yup. This is good. Damn, Gary, this is one hell of a cleanly produced album. Always amazed by what you do.
I can actually hear Daltrey sing this with Townsend providing harmonies. Dang, Gary. And the song just gets better and better as it progresses. Just, dang.
Righteous! Righteous!
First one in! Let's do this!!!
Yup. This is my favorite so far - but you likely knew I'd like this one best when you recorded it.
Just back to listen to the original. Damn, soooooooo good.
Just so spectacularly beautiful. Truly, one of my all-time favorite songs by any artist ever. Period.
My all-time favorite from you. Just spectacular.
This is such a classic.
Dang. Well, it appears that your family has hogged all the talent. Just SPECTACULAR.
Love it from the first note!
...and of course, it's BRILLIANT.
First one in! So good to see a new song up from you, my friend.
Loooooving this.
GREAT album! It just keeps getting stronger and stronger and closes with this outstanding track. Well done!!!
Nope. I lied. New favorite, this one.
