Again, apologies for the silence before this song gets going as well as for the inconsistent vocals... I hope the message overrides any lack of ability with respect to the song's execution.

Recorded a while ago when I really didn't have any idea what I was doing... Even so, the talent of the kid in the duet comes through. Apologies for the opening seven seconds of silence (hmmm... I may need to name my next album that).
After listening to Brian's beautiful guitar piece "Mellow," Brian was kind enough to allow me to sing along...
Never saw you coming
Down my lonely road
I never saw you coming
Can't be sure you'll never go
I know you'll be leaving
But I keep believing…
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."
wow, you have so many songs!
Thank you so much for you warm comments on my songs, I realy appreciated!
I like your "life" songs. And don't you worry about you vocals ( as you do in amy pond) it's about your emotion! And that strikes in the heart.
I will listen to you more often.
Wit a smile,
Inge

From one Doctor Who nerd to another, I've been thinking of writing something like this for some time. You beat me to it! But what about Rose Tyler? Did that end when David Tennant left the show? Great song. Will be back to listen to more.

Cant sleep....
Thought I'd write a Tune....
Had to be fairly Quiet on this, so as not to wake the Baby...
Hope you Like it.

“It Allâ€
By Tharek Mokbul 2010
I can’t find the,
Place where I kept,
My Love…
Oh wow, this is good right from the start. I had already faved this one a while back. Just a great love song from the amazing perspective of recall. INCREDIBLE guitarwork. What is your music background, Tharek? This is as good as it gets.
Had to do this one on the fly before an open mic night....
Sorry about the quality...
Came up with the song this morning ......
One take... GTR+MIC on one tracks (doubled up), Played live....
Not much time to record music or…
Beautiful opening picking, Tharek! What a genuine voice... Talk about honest music. Wow. I have a feeling that your music will soon begin to influence mine in some pretty profound ways.
I cant seem to play this unless I do it live....
That is something new to me...
Used to be the other way around....
This is called "Do or die"...
Do or Die
(words and music by Tharek Mokbul)
Do or die, that’s what Everyone here is…
How do you do your recording? Do you have separate mics for the vocals and guitar? I'd love to know since it sounds so good (I'm always looking for good ideas in an effort to make my music sound better).
I cant seem to play this unless I do it live....

Just a fantastic use of "ours is not to reason why." Great guitarwork and chord progression as always... If you don't come away from this song thinking hard, then there must be something wrong with you.
For those I call my friends....
Where ever in the world you are...
My Son Opens up this tune with a sound check... :)

Just fantastic. So many powerful verses and every one is so meaningful and necessary. Whereas I find it hard to fill out "that dreaded third verse," it seems to me that meaningful words just pour out of Tharek effortlessly as he plays. I wish there were a way to "double favorite" a song when it's this good.
Had to do this in Live....
Not Much time to Record Lately..
One track through the MBR onboard mic..
Hope you Like it!
Peace
Tharek (OsCKilO)

Crown of Dust
By T.Mokbul
If wealth was found in Shitty eyes
A thousand diamonds…
The Wife is a self confessed “Not a morning personâ€.....
I am a morning person (well... Wake up happy person).... and so is the boy....
This causes some friction sometimes.... LOL!!!!!!!
We went to a church fate today... Was…
All right, well I'm starting my OsCKilO music experience listenting to the playlist "Arise (Live and Acoustic)"... Mostly becuase I already love the title track. This is just a magnificent piece of songwriting. The straightforward simple arrangement and up-front vocals are just terrific. I am such a fan of the live recording, and this is one of the best.
For those I call my friends....

What a great song... Beautiful delicate arrangement. And yes, I see what you mean about the similarity in the feeling of our songs! Fantastic use of multiple vocals! I could never pull it off as you have! You are one hell of a songwriter... I am in awe when I listen to the freeness of your music and the heart that is poured into them.
An intrumental Track I put together when Thinking about my family.
One Guitar represents my son, one my wife and one me......
Two Versions with Vox (Jim Higgins and Geir Alfsen) are also in existance.. not sure how to link to this site…
Just playing around - wasn't too upset with what I ended up with. Sort of an intermission to something... if I decide to pursue this one, I'll get rid of that annoying buzz, I promise.
When I wrote this it was a cold cloudy and dark winter night here in vancouver but I was sitting in my room and was just in a sunny state of mind. I then picked up my Uke and started fiddlin around searching for a breezy chord progression, then…
Your "studio floor" as you call it must be one nice-sounding place. I hope you come back to this to flush it out further... It would be so easy to sing to this (and I hope you do at some point).
Sorry for the multiplicity. In the future, I should probably refrain from uploading until I have something more of a finished product. I doubt I'm finished with this... but it is, indeed, something more.
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
superb work here man. Cool accent too. Guitar progressions and slides are *PERFECT*. Flows like a river...
Big thanks to Kavin for making this song more than I could have possibly imagined with his incredible slide guitar.
Most enjoyable song, Keith and Love the lyrics.
Lovely songwriting!
very nicely done, thanks for putting the lyrics down R
Haha, I read that as 'Pass on Love', as in 'Love? I'll pass.' Anyway! Lovely song, affectionately performed, as ever, Mr L!
Again, apologies for the silence before this song gets going as well as for the inconsistent vocals... I hope the message overrides any lack of ability with respect to the song's execution.
very well done,,,a moving story line,,, as told by two talented people,, i'll go north with you
veeery nice song :)
This just makes me feel good. Thanks for that! Ashley's voice is incredible!
Sometimes WOW still works. This is a WOW. I really like this one. Nice song Keith.
Lovely stuff! Beautiful voices, great song!
This is so lovely. Love Ashley's voice.
This is great! My question is, are you gonna write a tribute to Rory? If you do, I promise to write the "ballad of the Dalek". Jim
what a beaut!
Great tune.
Recorded a while ago when I really didn't have any idea what I was doing... Even so, the talent of the kid in the duet comes through. Apologies for the opening seven seconds of silence (hmmm... I may need to name my next album that).
nicely recorded ...... and a nice natural reverb mate .... ill give it a master and its done :D

Wow. Just terrific guitarwork counterpointed by lower edgy vocals... What a sound! For me, this is a course in guitar 101... Great track.

Soooooooooo good. Just brilliant lyrics, incredible delivery. So real. I am in awe. Wow.

I could never pull it off as you have! You are one hell of a songwriter... I am in awe when I listen to the freeness of your music and the heart that is poured into them.
Oh my, this is incredible.
Wow. Amazing and powerful. Just magnificently performed and so undeniably real. Beautiful simple arrangement. Well done, Braeden.
Wow... Great song, great feeling. What a voice and powerful delivery. I hope to hear more music from you, Rachel!
As always, Gumbo, just terrific musicianship! Holy friggin' Woody Guthrie reincarnated!
Great stuff... Very haunting sound, I can imagine the artistic movie scenes that this could play magnificently behind.
One of the best songs I've ever heard. Period.
Man, this stuff is so Jud Caswell-esque... just good in every way. Great talent!
Your "studio floor" as you call it must be one nice-sounding place. I hope you come back to this to flush it out further... It would be so easy to sing to this (and I hope you do at some point).
Again, just great from the start... Fave'd at the 12-second mark.
Yup, another great track right from the start.
Wow right from the start on this one... So smooth and delicate and poignant. Instant favorite.
