I was singing along to this one! Was ready to ask for a spot on this track before I read the about & saw you already had something in the works... can't wait to hear it!

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…
We decided to give the kids an outlet that wasn’t pandemic or lockdown based this February, and made an album as a family for the RPM Challenge 2021. It was just the most precious, funny, brilliant month.
Spectacular album! This is a pretty perfect track as well, and a close second to Supernova to my ear. Great stuff, gang! Those girls have come a long way since the little munchkins I was first aware of years ago!!!

As I have mentioned in other years, I am so very blessed to have some songs come to me in my dreams. Grace is one of them. The specific line "Grace, grace, grace! You don't have to be a lonely child" is what I retained in my waking moments so…
We're so quick to judge others. We really shouldn't.
This one follows the tone of It Mattered To No One Else. I actually had a lot more song ideas like these two that I thought would end up being the whole record. But it didn't happen that…
Similar to a couple of other tunes this year, the How Many More? chorus idea has been floating around my addled head for a few years, but again, it wouldn't come to shore. But in promising my ideas that I never give up on them, I tried it again…
The Again, Again, Again line and melody has been flowing through my brain since 2017 or so. But if we are merely vessels for songs that are waiting to come to our shores, I was a leaky boat for a very long time and couldn't make the journey without…

Another one where the riff came first, on the last day of RPM 2020 actually. Before all the craziness struck. I thought to myself "Oh self! That's a good riff! I will need to revisit it next year for RPM 2021." So I did. It also has a call-back…
Never forget the simple pleasure of just listening to music. I wrote a whole album about it a few years ago called The Lost Art Of Listening. This one's about how a song can simultaneously take you away from the concerns of life, yet make you…
I can actually hear Daltrey sing this with Townsend providing harmonies. Dang, Gary. And the song just gets better and better as it progresses. Just, dang.
What else can be said of the last 12 months? Everybody wants a piece of my time. Get in line.
The riff came first and I walked around for days just banging it out non-stop. Hammer-ons for fun and pleasure...
Originally I had a Motown idea in mind, and I kept my stomping and clapping, but the song seemed to lend itself to a more spacey-synthey feel, so I ran with it. I also am hinting a tiny (very tiny) bit at Joe Jackson's band's backing vocal styles…
Written and recorded as part of our family RPM project this year. :-D
13 year old Jasmine on vocals and ukulele.
We wrote and recorded 10 songs under the name Cattica. It was just the best month of lockdown imaginable.

Back for more. Great song so far. It stands up on its own.
I was singing along to this one! Was ready to ask for a spot on this track before I read the about & saw you already had something in the works... can't wait to hear it!
That sounds Freaking Sweet! Love the chord progressions and the sublime picking!
looking forward to the lyrics!
Great so far man! Looking forward to the next stage!
Well mate she sounds good so far, top job mate really cool.
"Little Ditty in the Works" in it's next stage of evolution!
Very cool one Keith!
Whats not to like, sounds real good.
very nice - very catchy - can't wait to hear the whole thing!
Ah-Yes! This will be something to look forward to. Great acoustic sound!
Yes mate this is good great sound.
this sounds great!
It's got my ceative interest working. Really looking forward to the finished song.

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!
strumming fun. always already.
To Sum the Album up.... Majestic, Worldly and Wise. You must really Love life my friend!
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!

This is BY FAR my favorite track. Just outstanding in every way.
I would love to hear the creative process in the making of this album!
This is lovely.
Another brilliant album, Gary. Seriously, wonderfully done.
Yup. This is good. This is very, very good.
...but Pete Townsend definitely had final say.
It just hit me. This album is what would happen if The Who and Styx were put in a room and told, "Don't come out until you've made something amazing."
Favorited with the opening notes.
Yup. This is good. Damn, Gary, this is one hell of a cleanly produced album. Always amazed by what you do.
I can actually hear Daltrey sing this with Townsend providing harmonies. Dang, Gary. And the song just gets better and better as it progresses. Just, dang.
Righteous! Righteous!
First one in! Let's do this!!!
Yup. This is my favorite so far - but you likely knew I'd like this one best when you recorded it.
Just back to listen to the original. Damn, soooooooo good.
Just so spectacularly beautiful. Truly, one of my all-time favorite songs by any artist ever. Period.
My all-time favorite from you. Just spectacular.
This is such a classic.
Dang. Well, it appears that your family has hogged all the talent. Just SPECTACULAR.
Love it from the first note!
