DREAMS OF THE OCEAN
Your kids'll be waking up in the morning
Just a couple of hours after mine have gone to bed
I've got the coffee warming
While dreams of the ocean are in your daughters' heads
I taught them all 'bout it late last evening…
Some reflections after recording this song:
1. Mic positioning for a live take can drive you crazy
2. The lowest note I can comfortably sing is an A
3. A tortured soul can somehow write an amazing love song
4. I still have much to learn

Very silly.
Well, can’t you see the baby’s crawling
And pulling up all by herself
I can’t imagine what will be falling
When she climbs up on the shelf
See how much she likes to…

Black Cat
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…
A Song I wrote about a friend of mine who used to Jump out of planes a lot.
This is one of the hidden tracks on my new album "Black Cat" which features Beth, Keith and Reewfwalker from alonetone and Geir and Jim from Songcrafters.
Here is a…
Wow... Outstanding arrangement. I'm always floored by the perfect acoustic guitar on these tracks, and the violin (and other instruments) fill this tune out beautifully!
written on a Bad day with Chicken pox....
But Spent a Great Day with my Son who also had it.
Jim Called later that day.
He added a vocal/Lyric the day after as my voice is shot...
This is a song about good times with your wee ones..
This is really a true story.
No, really...
And our holiday gift to you & your friends. (Feel free to download it and share it with anyone who you think might enjoy it.)
Oh... by the way... acl is finally waking from a very deep slumber…

This one was inspired by Wen's mom; and is therefore dedicated to all those musicians doing RPM, and all musicians who toil away at home to make their music despite what their friends & co-workers might think of their efforts.
Well, I was introduced to this outstanding track by a couple of hyperactive rabbits and thought I should listen to the pre-bunny funk version. Outstanding track! Great work!!!
Fast forward time, 9 years to the day, and I am in a check-out lane.
You're standing there 3 or 4 feet away, pretending not to notice.
You look so beautiful in the winter,
Just like I remember.
Nothing really changes when it comes to the…
The contrast of this aging "summer boy" and his outdoors-loving daughter who is more than happy to run out into the cold.

The nights get so long
Turning embers
In the dark before dawn

Finally got this song balanced properly (after so many weeks of listening and editing, listening and editing). It somehow seems so long ago that we were all covered in snow now that winter has finally relented.
Ah... Glad I thought to come looking for this track again!... I thought you might like to hear my song with the same name (about one of my former students / piano players... who very much likes your music, by the way).

Well, after my conversation (if you could call it that) with my Seagull Mini-Jumbo, I started playing THIS song...
So now my guitar has filed for legal separation. I guess it never realized what true musicianship was all this time. It actually had the nerve to ask for Gary's email to see if he'd be at the Listening Party in Portsmouth (as if it thinks I'll still bring it along to meet Gary face-to-fretboard).
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
Just by to listen to the awesomeness again... I actually had the crazy idea of trying to cover this song with just a stripped down arrangement on the acoustic, but when I mentioned it to my guitar it angrily asked if I was "friggin' nuts" and went off to gripe in the corner of the room, mumbling something about my inadequacies as a musician and foolishness to try to mess with perfection.
We aren't speaking now. I'll try to re-establish contact with the six-string's representation by offering to play some James Taylor on it later, but after hearing this track I don't think it'll be interested in my version of "mediocre guitar playing" (I quoted the guitar on that one) any time soon.
In 1979, my father came home from the record store with an album that forever changed my life, Pete Seeger's Circles & Seasons. Before I knew Pete to be the blacklisted folk icon that had been on the humanitarian side of every fight since…
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
That's a nice one Keith! Love the way you vary the guitar part.
A departure on the intro guitar,really liked the instrumental contrast.
This is intimate, I felt intrusive just listening, Wow two of my faved people making me blush
Lovely tone, Mr Landry. Perfect choice for a cover - beautiful.
Beautiful lyrics, so tenderly sung. Good choice of cover.
great song! great cover!
Very nice!
1. Yes it can. 2. :) 3. To true. 4. We are always learning, everyday. This is a great version. Go man go.
Superb Keith! Great interpretation !!!!!
Exquisite...
Nice light-hearted tune
Lovely stuff Keith!
Great versh. I'd like more details on the mic placement. Are you just using one mic? More is better when recording acoustic.
Real creative sounds. Solid gold storytelling as usual.
Excellent!
Great stuff Keith! Love that percussion!
Nice knife work!
Good to see a new track up from you buddy. Take care :)
I love this! The percussion is great! Put a big smile on my face! w;-)
The lyrics speak to me bro! Superb track!! Are you hitting the bottles with a knife?

Looking forward to an Osckilo night at the Landry house to hear this album in its entirety.
Wow... Outstanding arrangement. I'm always floored by the perfect acoustic guitar on these tracks, and the violin (and other instruments) fill this tune out beautifully!
This is the goods! Once again, you find the perfect words and arrangement. Well done, my friend.
Too good for radio.
Left speechless by this album.
Damn... This is one hell of an album... Sorry I missed you at the listening party for a CD trade! Will be doing some downloading here instead!
Oh, the best one yet... Magnificent piece in every way.
Another gem, this one.
Excellent track!
Good to see this up in the #1 spot. Just absurd talent. Incredible stuff, Kavin.
Absolutely brilliant.
So where's the ACL fan club? Do I need to start a chapter? HA, the Toby Keith T-shirt!!!

Just giving this a little bump in honor of the release of Pete Seeger's "Circles & Seasons" album on CD... About to play my newly acquired copy!
