No envy Keith. You play just as damn good my friend. I am glad you were one of the first to listen to that track, being an acoustic genius.
Actually most of that song is all my friend Lance. He showed me the tuning and the main riff, I just went for the ride.
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…
Finally, the finishing touches seem to be put on this three-year-old song thanks to some very talented people.
The band is:
Liam (age 13 at the time of recording) on drums
A Girl Named Sam (she's no kid!) with the backing vocals
Genevieve…

I knew I heard this before!
Great to come back to it!
What a Great Listen this Album has been!
I was Gonna crack open some Wine, but got into the music instead! Lol!
Awesome mr Landry... Awesome!
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…
A simple as it is musically, this song pretty much sums it all up for me. What started as the simple appreciation of a hiking t-shirt evolved into this song about the duality of this domesticated artist who recognizes the importance of wandering…
Great track... Rings so true.
I have been there my friend, and man does this song hit home so perfectly! And the outstanding upbeat nature of the song is just a perfect counterpoint to the harsh sentiments of the insane person.
I wrote this one after visiting my daughter in Daytona Beach and seeing all the homeless people ,I live in a small town in central NY I had never seen homeless people before it was a shock
I'm really thinking of renaming the upcoming "Burning Wood... The Bonfire Sessions" album "Stealing Genius." I write something simple, put down some picking at the beginning, some acoustic guitar and some vocals, and send it off to people with…
I Got the Idea for this tune when I left Geir at Stanstead Airport.
Recorded it Last night after a Gig....
For the Folk Fest...

REALLY clean work here! Great production quality on this track, Brian!... And clearly a great deal of time was spent on this... And the fun created truly does come through.
Well done!

The nights get so long
Turning embers

Thank you so much M.T.C. Music award committee for recognizing such a relatively simple acoustic track from such a relatively simple person... (puts hand over mic to ask presenter, "Are you sure I really won this... Did you read the wrong name?")...
I'd like to thank my new laptop for not crashing during the 2011 RPM process, and not developing an editing mind of it's own as the last one had. I'd also like to thank time, seeing as how I needed so friggin' much of it to get the fingerpicked portions of this song eventually done right.
A big thank you to the inspiration for the songs, my always-ready-to-go-no-matter-how-absurdly-cold-it-is daughters. And a special thank you to my beautiful (and extremely tolerant) wife Kimberly for taking these same terrific daughters off my hands during my February vacation (sorry, Florida, for the pink invasion).
Where's the after party!
Once upon a rainy day, we were out in the farm fields waiting on the sun to break through the gloom. We arrived in this dark world naked and were washed clean waiting for the sun. Little darling, here it comes...
I can always count on a little slice of perfection from Peter... Perfectly crafted song, my friend! I truly envy your mastery of your voice, virtuosity with your instruments, and flawless ear for arrangement.
This song is written by Keith Landry.
He asked me to sing it and off course I wanted that!!
Thank you Keith!
About "Keep It Simple (with Inge)"
Well, I wrote this song as a note to my wife (who makes lists from time to time). I thought…
Hey superstar! So glad to see this one posted on your page!... I'll be finding some time in the coming weeks to record yet another version (with my vocals alongside yours), but I don't think I could possibly top Willem's!
Along with her magnificent harmonizing vocal tracks, Inge sent me one track which was crashed by her 2-year old son Willem. He pretty much takes over the whole operation at about 3:00.
In the background you can hear the original rough vocals…
(@Reefwalker) I may go back and record a different version with the two of us singing together. It is daunting to try to keep up with her incredible vocal talents, though!
Corbin,
Just swinging by again to have a listen to this little piece of perfection. Hey, how many of the instruments are you playing on this? I'd love to hear the recording process for this song. It truly is one of the most perfectly crafted, arranged, and performed songs I have ever heard.
Be good and keep charging toward greatness!
Keith
My oldest is a serious mountain hiker, herself. I'll be playing this beautiful song for her later... If you want to hear my version of a hiking song (a day with my middle and youngest when they were really little), come on over for a listen!

I've got a bunch of other songs over there written about hiking in the mountains... But none so tremendously arranged as this gem of yours.
This evolved out of an exercise in a workbook I just got on music composition. The original task was to write a melody in the Dorian mode about water...
Oooooh... This is NICE. Faved almost instantly. I really will need to give your songs the serious time they deserve.
OUTSTANDING track... I have a feeling they're all gonna be this good.

Well, as night sets in on another great labor day, I just thought I'd bring this ode to the end of summer back into view. Enjoy!

Excellent arrangement!!! Love the acoustic sound. Faved when that third guitar dropped in at just the right time.
Faved for Kavin's slide guitar goodness!
How the hell did I miss this one! I gotta get my head out of my ass and swing by the osckilo part of the world more often! Well done, my friend!
REALLY clean work here! Great production quality on this track, Brian!... And clearly a great deal of time was spent on this... And the fun created truly does come through. Well done!

What incredible music, Craig! I can't believe I've missed out on these perfect tunes for so long!

Faved instantly!
I'm always blown away by what comes out of your mind, through your hands, in into a microphone. Such good sounds... Always such good sounds.
Oh goodness... How have I missed this all this time?!?!?! AMAZING.
My friend, you have a knowledge of your instrument that I could never hope to have. Magnificent piece of music.
Faved instantly.
Very nice haunting arrangement. Love the guitar coming in at around 1:20-ish. Really deftly handled orchestration throughout.
Oooooh... This is NICE. Faved almost instantly. I really will need to give your songs the serious time they deserve. OUTSTANDING track... I have a feeling they're all gonna be this good.
