So I'm watching Ken Burns' documentary on the National Parks and realize that I'd never written that John Muir song I had been meaning to get to... So I got to it. Tim Alexander (Letter Seventeen) mentioned that he thought the song needed a…
Vocal excellence from girl named Sam... Do you really need any other reason to listen?

A few years back (when I lived it Texas), I drove out to an open field to watch the Geminids meteor shower... I really need to remember to look up at the night sky more often.

Inspired by a picture of my sister at the top of the Estes Cone (I was too out of shape to get up there myself... something I need to do when I return to RMNP).

When the girl in the room is just too cute for me to concentrate on whatever it was I was trying to do.
Anything Done

With you looking like that
I'm so far gone
I'm forgetting where I'm at

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…
there's something about the way you sing "cool wind BLOWing"
and "satchel full of WORRies" that i really realy like. Gets me right down into the heart of the matter. Bravo.
Another formerly poorly recorded song... Really a piece of poetry that was put to music (a hit-or-miss approach for me that seemed to work well on this one).

Bookending the "Late December" CD, this song about my little girls on Christmas morning holds a special place in my heart. Thanks to Sam and Mick for making it perfect.

Keith - I've been listening to your songs and I want to say I have liked every one of them. I'll keep listening, but family is interrupting me at the moment. I'll be back.

Roughly recorded years ago... A little more properly recorded now.

Landing hard'll change your view of time

A crazy little song written while considering Ed Robertson's plane crash from a few years back, "Any Landing" is given much legitimacy by Ashley's incredible voice and Kavin Allenson's (Kavin S. Acoustic Church) guitar.

Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…
Turn this one up REALLY FREAKING LOUD!
Written, recorded and polished off in about 45 minutes or so. Clearly my British influence shines forth in this one, right down to the SG through a Vox amp tones and backward riffs here and there. (and…
Borrowed Keith Landry's dynamic acoustic guitar part to help me write the most personal song I've ever written. Recorded last February for the RPM challenge, but didn't feel right putting it up until now.
Don't tell me how it is, I'm good, I got it, I got it. But are we blind, and are there cracks in a facade? The riff was what came first, probably while watching the idiot box one evening. I am pretty sure it came very soon after RPM '15, and I…
Man, we need to find a way to stop time. I suspect a month outside of reality would yield some pretty amazing music if we got all of our musical cronies together in a studio house in the mountains.
A love song about fate.
Tim - guitar and vocal.
Before I knew you I felt the gravity
Something beyond control I knew was pulling me
Binding us together in ways I couldn’t see
And i would come to know there was only you for me (you for…
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis.
Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
Finally remembered to log in (yeah, the comments on the other tracks were me). I always do especially love the stripped-down singer-songwriter tracks. This is one of the best.
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
You caught the sense of the space-time being plentiful beautifully.
i had to play this again imeeediately
Masterful. That's a great image of lying down aligned to the Pole star and the big dipper. Faved.
Wow... this is a stunner... a complete stunner.
Another excellent song/performance. Your voice, guitar, and songs just hit the spot for me.

This one's a bit special.
You can't do anything but smile :) w;-)
This is beautiful! w;-)

like!
Killer track man!
Your music makes me say "aaaaahhhhhhh". Very chill.
Ah, glad this one made it! This album is a total gem, Mr L! Kudos to the man in the hat!
Love that folky feel, and oh my goodness, Ashley's voice works gorgeously here.
Brilliant!
Wow, love the thickening of the guitar sound at around 1 minute - very effective and emotive!
Lovely duet! You have great chemistry, guys!
This is a great song. Fabulous vocals also! My fave on the album so far.
Beautiful playing - lovely warm summer feelings here...maybe your Decembers are warmer than ours. :)
Comments made by Keith Landry
Oh, there's the love.
Oh, hell yes.
Love it! Man, I was just thinking about your stuff... Mentioned you over at RPM a couple of days ago. Always blown away by your arrangements.
Ah.... I needed this.
This should be on the radio. Period.
Lovely.
Dude. Sooooooo good.
Faved instantly
This is just crazy good. I wish I'd written it.
Man, we need to find a way to stop time. I suspect a month outside of reality would yield some pretty amazing music if we got all of our musical cronies together in a studio house in the mountains.
Awaiting the all Letter Seventeen all-acoustic singer/songwriter album.
Just back for another listen to this piece of awsomeness.
Mic drop. Rap battle O.V.E.R.
You need help. But please please please don't ever seek it.
Ah. Love that chord progression. I await an album full of these songs. Then again, that would likely make the world would fly off its axis. Seriously, man, first rate all the way.
Dude, your vocals are spot on. Really impressed.
Ah, love that Andy Samford lead guitar. Crazy good as always.
Yes. I am home.
GREAT arrangement.
