So tender and perfect! I'm going to be listening to you at breakfast again tomorrow.
"Out of ALL the boys, DADDY was your favourite???!!!!" is my fave so far.
Written for my youngest when she was very little, almost everyone who's had a kid that just would rather not sleep can identify with this song. Originally, there was a line in there about "Staying up this late at night makes me consider drinking…
Probably my absolute favourite of yours.
And, that chorus is stunning - especially now I know who those pretty girls are. You're one gifted singer song-writer, Mr Landry.
All right, so one of those silly songs needed to find its way onto the album. In an effort to teach the students on my middle school team about rhythm in poetry, I wrote this little bit of foolishness about a fictional character (so yes, you…

On your recommend, I'll dive into newer songs. Keith, you are a great story-driven songsmith. The stories in your songs are always interesting and well formed. Keep it up!
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…

well done,,, this songs lyrics are very rich in the story telling, it takes a little more thought/ quietness to listen to,, It is well worth it, listen more than once and you will be rewarded in a quiet peacefulness... interesting, creative and very well played!!

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!
Love this song, Keith. Thanks for the invitation!
Was an absolute pleasure to work with you. Even if it *was* without reverb... ;-)
(And this is my first boy/girl duet.) Looking forward to hearing this develop!
Final version
Every so often when i'm thinking of something else a western song pops up as if there is a soundtrack to a movie running in the back of my head. I might have to gather em all up into a playlist some day.
track nine, or at least…
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…
Got bumps on my body
One under my eye
Been there since birth
I don't know why
Have one on my leg and one on my back
I guess it's better than having a heart attack
Someone said "Know thyself" he was pretty wise
I thought I knew me pretty…
Lyrics
Take the lift and your half way up....
Reach the top and your half way up...
You didn’t see your rise, and Lost your way.....
Looking down on the world your tears fall...
You Missed the Beauty of the climb.
And now you’re…
Thank you for being you
No one else would do
Thank you for being you
You're all I ask for
Too many nights alone
tonight I'm coming home
open up the wine cos I'm
gonna be with the one who's shown
Me the ways of old
Women into wives…
Nine cans of Guinness....
One beaten up old Guitar.....
An MBR....
A Great night out...
Then Some time time my self...
This is the result...
Peace

Maybe it’s Something…
3rd one for RPM2011. This is an 'oh you'll never get to heaven' type affair inspired by a beer my mate introduced me too. The song is basically about drinking yourself to death and having one up on the healthy brigade having made a rather spectacular…
An unusual traditional tune from the first Scartaglen album way back in 1984. Going through stuff the other day and ran across the LP and couldn't even remember the tune or having recorded it. I played guitar on this track
This is me live....
No frills....
I Play a classical because my fingers are too big... Lol!!
Sorry if it is a bit rough...
was a tough night...
30/12/10
I like it though...
Peace

Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
one word... Chills.
So tender and perfect! I'm going to be listening to you at breakfast again tomorrow. "Out of ALL the boys, DADDY was your favourite???!!!!" is my fave so far.
Great playing, great singing, beautiful, funny song. (Both of mine slept through at 3 weeks, hahahahaha!)
Probably my absolute favourite of yours. And, that chorus is stunning - especially now I know who those pretty girls are. You're one gifted singer song-writer, Mr Landry.
Love your voice. And thin crust pizza.
Great song/ love the lyrics.:)
On your recommend, I'll dive into newer songs. Keith, you are a great story-driven songsmith. The stories in your songs are always interesting and well formed. Keep it up!
Oh My! What a wonderful collaboration! Almost missed this one
Your voices really compliment each other beautifully. This is a wonderful track. More please !!! : )
Thanks to everyone for listening to this stripped-down first run of this song with Tess' amazing vocals.
great idea. I enjoyed listening.
Wow very cool great lyrics well done. Beautiful vocals as always Tess. And Keith's are good too. This is brilliant.
cool tune.
Your voices are wonderful together. I love the concept too. This is a beautiful song really well performed.
Very nice. Loved the interplay between you both and the time zone difference lyrics, the parent/children aspect too. Good work
I think your ready to take these soft hearts to prime time. This is very easy listening and I just loved it.
I always wanted to hear Sis sing with a guy. This is really, really, well done. Tip of the hat to Mr. Landry. Bravo! ~WG
Fave'd because of Tess' incredible vocals! Damn, that girl can sing.

Another great track from Gumbo!
I had to give it a favorite tag just for MTC's out of control guitar work.
OUTSTANDING!!!
What a sound!!! Man, Kavin, just how freakin' good are you gonna get?
This is outstanding! I'm loving the free-and-easy tracks this RPM, Kavin!
Damn, Tharek. Just a great song... As always, envious of that incredible picking of yours.
Faved from the opening notes... Reminiscent of some of Matthew Sweet's best stuff! Great track, Alex!
Great song in every way, Tharek!
Instant fave.
Great song... perfectly arranged and performed! Classic Fedofsky with the tempo-changed bridge... So good.
Another gem, Peter. The more I try to push my vocal limitations, the more I keep coming back to listen to your stuff with envy and awe!
Outstanding!
...And I love the higher level conversations that will surely ensue from the "physics degrees."
Love it. Absolutely love it. This will be an instant classic in the Landry household before the week is out.
Colin, Really excited for this kids album. Great track, man!
Faved at the first note. Jeez, Kirk, this "way back" stuff is fantastic!!!
Always appreciative of the live stuff! Well done, Tharek!!!
Great stripped down track, Colin! No imaginary rock band necessary!
Really like the energy of this one, Dave! Nice collection of tunes you have here... I'll be following in the future.
Hey, great rich full sound to this track, Tharek!
