Well, screw the metronome, damn the torpedoes, and grab a capo!
Sometimes the best versions are the ones played fast and loose. Hope you enjoy this song adapted from one of my all-time favorite poems (I'm a bit biased since my dad wrote it…
A few months back, Jim (MTC) posted an outstanding acoustic track which summoned up a clear-as-day memory from my childhood. The vividness of that memory resulted in this song... Amazing how such significant events in your life (like recognizing…
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…

Demo version of a song I've been messing with.
I know what they're missing... The only girl.
I know what they're missing... The one and only in the world.

WATER UNDER WATER
So near the surface
So near the end
So near the purpose
Time and again
Just barely breathing
I’ll need you when
I’m floating in the water under water
Holding on loosely
Without letting…
Red string of fate... Go look it up!
ONE RED STRING
One red string
Forever tied
Through everything
I’ve ever tried
You can always bring be back to life
Just by coming ‘round
There’s something magic in your eyes
Or maybe something…

Final version
Every so often when i'm thinking of something else a western song pops up as if there is a soundtrack to a movie running in the back of my head. I might have to gather em all up into a playlist some day.
track nine, or at least…
So I dropped the guitar into DADGAD tuning for the first time, threw a capo on the third fret, rifled off something nice, and sent it to Movement to Contact for his contribution, got it back, did some mixing...
Here is the result.
YOU NEED…
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
Thank you for being you
No one else would do
Thank you for being you
You're all I ask for
Too many nights alone
tonight I'm coming home
open up the wine cos I'm
gonna be with the one who's shown
Me the ways of old
Women into wives…
Nine cans of Guinness....
One beaten up old Guitar.....
An MBR....
A Great night out...
Then Some time time my self...
This is the result...
Peace

Maybe it’s Something…
3rd one for RPM2011. This is an 'oh you'll never get to heaven' type affair inspired by a beer my mate introduced me too. The song is basically about drinking yourself to death and having one up on the healthy brigade having made a rather spectacular…
An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track
This is me live....
No frills....
I Play a classical because my fingers are too big... Lol!!
Sorry if it is a bit rough...
was a tough night...
30/12/10
I like it though...

Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
Very good! ...and well done.
Hmm.. Wonder where this idea came from...
Real sweet one there guys!
Hit the spot. Really good track.
I had to fave it for Kavin's brilliant bass and slide work. I can't imagine this song without it.
I love how this turned out Keith. Thanks for letting me participate.
Just stopped by to listen to your latest. Love your music. ER
This is simply gorgeous :)
Enjoyed!
This is wonderful, Keith. w;-)
Oh my Keith, this is just fantastic! One of your best ever! w;-)
I did go look it up. This is really nice Keith. That a nylon string in there?
Very cool, gonna be a good rpm for you if this is an indication. I can hear some atmospheric guitarplay under this..
Excellent songmenship here Keith. Really enjoying the chord/vocal progressions.

Another great track from Gumbo!
I had to give it a favorite tag just for MTC's out of control guitar work.
OUTSTANDING!!!
What a sound!!! Man, Kavin, just how freakin' good are you gonna get?
This is outstanding! I'm loving the free-and-easy tracks this RPM, Kavin!
Damn, Tharek. Just a great song... As always, envious of that incredible picking of yours.
Faved from the opening notes... Reminiscent of some of Matthew Sweet's best stuff! Great track, Alex!
Great song in every way, Tharek!
Instant fave.
Great song... perfectly arranged and performed! Classic Fedofsky with the tempo-changed bridge... So good.
Another gem, Peter. The more I try to push my vocal limitations, the more I keep coming back to listen to your stuff with envy and awe!
Outstanding!
...And I love the higher level conversations that will surely ensue from the "physics degrees."
Love it. Absolutely love it. This will be an instant classic in the Landry household before the week is out.
Colin, Really excited for this kids album. Great track, man!
Faved at the first note. Jeez, Kirk, this "way back" stuff is fantastic!!!
Always appreciative of the live stuff! Well done, Tharek!!!
Great stripped down track, Colin! No imaginary rock band necessary!
Really like the energy of this one, Dave! Nice collection of tunes you have here... I'll be following in the future.
Hey, great rich full sound to this track, Tharek!
