One of the first songs I ever wrote... When we bought our first house, we had a nice big back yard on a 1/3 acre lot... With the train tracks just on the other side of the back fence.
Another "oldie but goodie" that had never really gotten the love it deserved... The original version came in at over six minutes (and even I recognize in looking back that it was WAY too long).

I have a soft spot for trains as well. In my hometown south of here I enjoyed the trains rolling by old route 66 all the time. Miss them some days.
Also really like the strumming pattern @ the :57 mark reminds me of the train horn
Written for a friend from days long past working in special needs summer camps... Now she's raising an autistic son, and doing an amazing job of it.
Still, none of it's fair.
The title track for this year's RPM album. One mic. Live take. Please forgive the missed notes.

A song about writing songs that isn't really about song-writing, and knows it is being written.
Written and sung by Tangmo. Arranged and performed by Phil Close. Additional guitars by Karl Cutruff.
Hey everybody, come out in the streets now
Hey everybody, let's have a good time
Bring along your cooler, there's good food to eat now…
Written and performed by Tangmo and Jay Jackson. If my voice sounds a little sickly, it's because it was. I went into the hospital with life-threatening heart and respiratory problems days after laying vocals for this song. It remains a 'spiritual…

Words and Music by Tharek Mokbul ( OsCKilO )
My heart will miss a beat
Each time
I see your pain
I know this is the end
But I
Will fight this tide
The battle is complete
Both sides
Have won this time
I will remember you
So proud…
We Didn't Get Time to do this in Norway.
Geir put down great the Guitars.
I took the Vox and Lyrics...
This is called "Your Heart"
-Your Heart-
Your shout is silent now
It feels I’m missing out
This void is lasting evermore…
This song described my co-workers at one company during a temporary assignment. I won't mention the company for fear of being sued, but you get the idea what they were like.

This is my first musical expedition into the midi keyboard. Having never played the piano its a fun learning experience. Thanks to Norm for lending me Stinkbug!
Very cool. So this is what music sounds like when you're just learning something new, Rick. I can't wait to hear when you really know what you're doing!
Steve and I on a Sunday afternoon jam. haven't changed it a lick. Minimally processed it. I liked the openess of it, so I left it alone. Went to Crater Lake, and found this songs home. Played it to the stars the moon and the waters, as the moon…

Great stuff Keith! One day i will get to re-recording that track for you to use, but for now this is jammin. :)
Great stuff Keith! Love your guitar accompaniments. This one sounds like there's a second high part. Almost sounds like a mandolin
Nice one Keith. Understated guitar, mellow tone. Brilliant lyric and well sung.

Another quickly faved track, this one is!
Faved at 0:02.
This one had me at 15 seconds or so... How have I not run into your music before today?!?! Every track has its own great sound.
Thanks, Bee, for bringing FTB to the front page! This is great stuff... I may need to have a FTB listening night later this week!
Excellent track! Great songwriting!
Hey Tharek, I'm at KeithLandryAcoustic@gmail.com I'd love to hear anything you have in mind! Keith
...And just back to listen to this perfect little song.
Absurdly good. These Irish reels of yours are just outstanding!
Very nicely arranged, ER! Cool track, sir! Oh yes, just hit the chorus. Been listening to dozens of your tracks, and this may be the best one yet.
"The morality field lies fallow"... Great line! "Just enough to feed me and my cat"... This is a very well crafted commentary on the working world.
This is a great track, ER! Definitely one of your best.
Wow... Just outstanding.
So nice. You get a great sound out of those six strings, sir.
Very cool. So this is what music sounds like when you're just learning something new, Rick. I can't wait to hear when you really know what you're doing!
Just outstanding. I'm always in awe of the musical talent here on Alonetone, and this is right at the top.
As always, great delivery... Very nice song and soooo listenable!
Outstanding... So so so true.
Great track, Tharek!
This is such a great track as well... So damn pure.
Just dropping back in to listen to this perfect little song.
