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…

Eerie, mournful, beautiful, but so, so lonely.
These are the words of a friend listening to it. When you make a conscious choice as to who you should be, what you were meant to be, what you have failed to be, until now...
This one is meant…
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…

Ok, before I go any further, I need to thank Alonetoner Greg Connor. He proposed a song-writing challenge around the theme of "Who Knew" in early/mid December. Many musicians here in the Alonetone community wrote some amazing songs around this…
A somber holiday tune written through the eyes of someone that may not be in the position to celebrate the holidays, but must look on as others do.
Recorded Nov - Dec 2018
Woot! It was a pleasure to work on this brilliantly written song. This definitely pushed my recording and arranging process beyond it typical boundaries. Much appreciation for trusting me with this beautiful little gem.
Newest song Ive written and recorded. Recorded at my sons home studio. My son produced, co wrote, and he plays the great lead guitar on the tune. Copyright by R.J. Garn and Jim Garn, December 2017.
I enjoyed this thoroughly, and as for the "guest" and his moronic comment... He has no understanding of that which he is listening. It’s sad when the idiots of the world run around giving their uninformed, unfounded, and just plain stupid opinions - all while maintaining anonymity. Go to hell, guest. Please, go to hell.
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?

Definitely darker than the typical Gary Fox selection. Crazy production quality. Damn fine top five playlist, Gary.
...And one of these days you're going to make an all acoustic album. Or else.
This is one of the first of your songs I ever heard. Instant fan. Been stalking you ever since.
Love when the band kicks in. How have I not favorited this before?
I can see why you chose this excellent song for the ultimate Gary Fox playlist. Getting more and more jealous by the minute.
Yup. Definitely a top fiver. Such a ridiculously good opening riff... And then the song gets better. And better. And better.
Loved this from the opening note.
Dang, man. This is good. Like really really good.
I love this treatment of what was originally the roughest Landry demo ever recorded.
Woot! It was a pleasure to work on this brilliantly written song. This definitely pushed my recording and arranging process beyond it typical boundaries. Much appreciation for trusting me with this beautiful little gem.
Man, GREAT to hear from Garn studios!!!
I ordered the fish and I got the stupid. Great album, Matt!
This is soooooo good.
"I still will buy him!" And the geek shall rule the Earth.
I was happy at the start, happier with the banjo, and sent to another level when the band kicked in.
Lin Manuel Miranda has nothing on you. Damn.
OUTSTANDING FROM THE FIRST NOTE. Holy crap, Matt. This is incredible.
Seriously, this is indi film soundtrack gold.
Dude, I love this from the get.
