A song for my daughter.
My blue-eyed girl
Living in your blue-sky world
I'll do my best to keep the clouds away
Life is better on a sunny day
Smooth the road out where you go
Let your light shine and watch you grow
Believe it or not, this track was written as a pretty tame little song... Then I put new strings on the guitar and it simply refused to be played slow. Enjoy it for the drive and energy. Listen to the lyrics. For whatever reason, I hope you…
F*ck Yeah!!!!!
This is where the Sauce is at Bro!
The arrangement is Amazing!
"dark just before the Dawn"
Love the Feeling of redemption and Victory in this track! And I Love the way You use the dark times to highlight the Good!
F*cking superb track!
My wife woke up one morning and said "I had a dream about (someone we'd just lost) the other night." When I asked her if she was okay, she replied, "Yeah, it was good to see her again."
Real emotional and honest track bro...
Mortality is a subject you have tackled well here.
Sublime Mr Landry.
I love the connection you have with nature in your music. It really creates a counterpoint to put against the subject which defines it so clearly.

Some girls have had it far too rough for their very few years.
How old were you when you'd seen enough
How old were you when your hide got tough
Your wounds have scarred
Sometimes they still sting
Close your eyes and hear her sing
Some girls have had it far too rough for their very few years.
How old were you when you'd seen enough
How old were you when your hide got tough
Your wounds have scarred
Sometimes they still sting
Close your eyes and hear her sing
A quick little tune written in appreciation of a small expression of contentedness.
I can see in that little smile
You're living for the moment
Every once in a little while I catch it
No one else could match it
You're more than meets the eye
I find it heard to write straight up love songs like this.
Takes a lot to stop them sounding Cheesy.
This has a distinct lack of cheese.
It's SUBLIME!
Like all your songs, there is a deep resolve and appriciation for life entrenched in the writing.
Quality Bro! Quality!
My response to John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High."
The first time I dropped my lowest string
Was for Rocky Mountain High
Last night I caught a flight
To see the fire in the sky
Where John found twenty-seven
Now I'm turning thirty-five…
Drop D always makes for a song that means business!
This sure does!
Again... This song is Majestic!!
Love those drums!!!!!!!!!!!
The Just weave in and out of the Guitar to the extent they become one.
Totally Awesome!
Faved.
Hiking in Rocky Mountain National Park, the opening melodies to this song found their way into my head... A song of hiking, love, and life... Won't you come with me on the trail?
It's Landry night again!
Yep... From the opening notes, I see this Album is gonna be a good one!
I love that Chord progression. It is one that Always sounds different depending who plays them. I got a song called "on the fence" that follows them... But not as majestic as this!!!!
Love the bridge to the chorus!
Lyrics suit the Awesome feel of the song!
I'll be walking this trail bro...Great Opener!!
Well, I realized while listening to so many other great rough cuts and demos (and how much I enjoyed listening to them), that it was about time I contributed to the process. Rather than posting only completed songs, I decided to put up the rough…

This is some Superb Guitar bro!

I Love what you are doing here with the song writing snap-shots!
Reminds us all that music should be fun!
Peace bro!

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…
Another old song that got a little country twang when it became obvious that the horn section wouldn't be showing up on my doorstep any time soon.
"You fools don't know what's going on inside her head"
BETWEEN - 11-27/28-12
I step out of the car
I don't know where we are
Somewhere between a planet
A planet and a star
I never dreamed I'd end up
in a place like this
The Multnomah Falls is up the Columbia Gorge
Somewhere between Portland…
A bit of improv done yesterday with my newly refurbished fretless guitar. Finally got the midi pickup to track almost right! Part of the sounds were gotten by rubbing a teaspoon on the strings.
i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,
Richard!
The song seems to be playing here on the site okay for me, so something must be up on your end. As for the RPM site, if you look under "Latest Discussions" halfway down the right side of the page, you should find reference to the Holiday Challenge...
...And if the song won't play for you on Alonetone, you should be able to listen to it in my player.

Texas hold em poker, and going for it all. Open mic acoustic with some alt tuning. Percussion by Norm.
The kokiriko? Norms playing in there actually sounds like shuffling cards- particularly loving the glockenspiel addition he did…
I'm not sure if John really had intended to write a funny lyric, but we thought it was funny - and so this became a funny song. At least I think so. :)
In the beginning there was a stupid little synth demo. This is what became of it with a…
...But now as I listen to this version, I think I prefer it... And I suspect that's how I'll feel every time I listen to either version. Ah, the beauty of great music.
Outstanding. I think I prefer this version as well. Both are outstanding. I say keep uploading multiple versions. Seeing the same great artist sing the same song on a different night is always a little bit different... And always worth hearing.
For Elly Barnes
Thanks for the moment to think......
-My part of peace-
To think for a moment
Is the greatest of gift to me.
To think without fear
Better still....

Faved instantly... GREAT arrangement, T!!!... Sorry I haven't been around... Busy time in the classroom, September is. This track is a spectacular reminder of why I need to listen more often.

Theres something I would share with you, if you ever asked me to.
Perhaps it is a secret, perhaps you already know.
Im not the boy you look for now, but I could change.
Im not in love with myself, but I think I am with you.

Sometimes I can find solace in the sky.
Knowing we are all here...
Under the same sky......
Under the same sky by OSCKILO
Under the same sky
We can share a light
At any time
Or stoke it
till its heat holds no delight
Under the same sky…
Faved instantly. Y'all are the most original, unfettered, and uninhibited artists I know. Truly brilliant track.
Seriously floored by this one. I need to do exactly as Gary says.
Noodling with the "art guitar" in DADGAD tuning in the Serra sculpture Vortex at the FW MOMA. No fx added, all natural reverb/delay inside the structure.

There are a good many (like myself) who merely play (or at times fight with) the guitar. Then there are a very few (like Kavin) who truly are the guitar.
Kavin, both this track and you as an artist are simply magnificent.
Man, I get out of the loop for just a little while and Kavin drops all of this amazing guitar work her on Alonetone. There is no better, "Hey, welcome back, where've you been?" that I could have asked for.

Your Daughter is a Lucky Person. There is so much love and protection in this Track. Awesome bro. What an awesome thing to give to your child!
Your Tunes are so full of hope my friend. I sense that you write to help others. That is a great thing. Love the Carefree "Na na na's" by the way.

A very sad song bro.... You really know how to tell a storey through music bro... True Talent...
Powerful message bro.... Very well done!
Mirrors my comment for "Come on home"... Appreciation and love! Superb performance! Sublime Mr Landry!

This is some Superb Guitar bro! Sooooo Majestic! I Love what you are doing here with the song writing snap-shots! Reminds us all that music should be fun! Peace bro! T
That was fun. Looking forward to the finished tune!
I wish I could strum like that, I'm rubbish. I like your little glitches and the laughes that follow. Yeah, looking forward to it!
Nice mate really enjoyed this one.
Anytime you need some bass let me know. I'm always ready for a collab. I've been playing bass more and more these days, and love it.
Nice change ups Keith. Diggin it ;)
Another in a long list of songs I wished I'd written. Well done, both of you. ER
wholesome downhome country feel...very sweet.

Faved instantly. Sooooooo good. I need to take a day, do myself a favor, and go back through the Reefwalker catalog of musical goodness.
I need to get my ass to Texas for one of these live gigs and get my head properly fed. GREAT track.
Great production! Grinning through the whole thing.

Just outstanding. Beautiful tone. Just first rate listening, Kavin.
Double woot!
