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…
The title track. At one point I had visions of everyone singing at the end of the album (and thank you to those of you that did), but I just couldn't get it to sound right (I don't really know what I'm doing after all). So instead of voices…
You could sing the phone book, and I'd probably be amazed.
I hear elements of Garth Brooks, Don McLean, and - of course - a lot of original Keith Landry in this song. Great work, as usual!

Bonfire Lullaby
Dannah studies my hands while I play
With heavy eyes at the end of a runaround day
Fading fast ‘neath a summer night’s sky
No need to wonder why
Time stands still in her…
Sometimes, all you need to do is decide that you're gonna save yourself.
COMING UP OVER THE RISE
So low I couldn't see the skies
The shadows had me hypnotized
Climbing high, sun in my eyes
I was down, but now I'm coming up over the rise…

This song just completely turned my day around. Very simple and cheerful, and still leaves me feeling a bit of inspiration and optimism. Good work, Keith.

Keith - this is lovely - not only the song / guitar / vocals but also the sentiment and the slice of real life. This is a definition of beauty and serenity and... Love.

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…

Well, my friend, I find myself back in your playlist - somewhere I need to be more frequently. As I put the finishing touches on another album, I wonder if there's any music left in me. Then I listen to your magnificent music - spectacular songwriting from a tremendous mind who cares about the world in the same way but expresses it differently - and I want to see the world differently, write about it differently, sing about it differently.
I thank you from across the Atlantic for your musical support in the past and the way I know your music will continue to inspire me in the future.
This is a song of hope. I hope ya'll enjoy. I used reason for the backing track and my phone to record guitar and vox.

Guess I didn't get the hint
Still trippin' on my footprints
Clean my cuts and reminisce,

Mr. Keith Landry was kind enough to let me have a play around with the title track from his very excellent rpm album.. This was the outcome. If you haven't, check out Keith's album.. Tis truly a thing of beauty
This song is written by Keith Landry.
He asked me to sing it and off course I wanted that!!
Thank you Keith!

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!
Well, Well, Well- There is still unadulterated, unabashed love in the world. Yes, the song is masculine sounding, no shock there, since I am a guy. However, despite a friend’s comments to the contrary, I didn’t intend this song to be about getting…
My song for the 2014 RPM Christmas Challenge. It's all over the place with style, kind of like random presents under the tree. ;)
Merry Christmas to you!

Sounds lovely Keith. Very nice!
Wow! How did I miss this? Great stuff Keith!
You could sing the phone book, and I'd probably be amazed. I hear elements of Garth Brooks, Don McLean, and - of course - a lot of original Keith Landry in this song. Great work, as usual! Regards, Steffen

Hell YEAH!
Oh my. I've been away far too long. Brilliant from the opening notes. I need to go back to songwriting school. Tharek 101 is in session.

Just back to listen to this little slice of goodness.
Oh, yeah. That's the spot.
Dang.
LOVE it.

Hey, nice work making my little acoustic track into something so much more! NICE groove.
Time to start recording and posting more music Inge. Don't keep that angel's voice of yours hidden.
I love this today as much as I did the first time I heard you sing it!
Nope. Wrong again. THIS is the best of the best.
I was wrong before. THIS is the best of the best.
This might be the best of the best.
Soooooo good.
Seriously, man. This is just so right.
Oh, now that I'm logged in (yes, you may have guessed that the "Dang" comment came from me), I can properly fave this track.
Yeah, this one turned out pretty amazing.
Oooo... Love the stuff at 1:30 or so!
First rate track...
