Vocal excellence from girl named Sam... Do you really need any other reason to listen?
A Little Playing

Only getting clearer

Like looking in a mirror

By that tiny little flicker…
A few years back (when I lived it Texas), I drove out to an open field to watch the Geminids meteor shower... I really need to remember to look up at the night sky more often.

Inspired by a picture of my sister at the top of the Estes Cone (I was too out of shape to get up there myself... something I need to do when I return to RMNP).

When the girl in the room is just too cute for me to concentrate on whatever it was I was trying to do.
Anything Done
How am I supposed to get anything done
With you looking like that
I'm so far gone
I'm forgetting where I'm at

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.

there's something about the way you sing "cool wind BLOWing"
and "satchel full of WORRies" that i really realy like. Gets me right down into the heart of the matter. Bravo.
Another formerly poorly recorded song... Really a piece of poetry that was put to music (a hit-or-miss approach for me that seemed to work well on this one).

Bookending the "Late December" CD, this song about my little girls on Christmas morning holds a special place in my heart. Thanks to Sam and Mick for making it perfect.

Keith - I've been listening to your songs and I want to say I have liked every one of them. I'll keep listening, but family is interrupting me at the moment. I'll be back.

Roughly recorded years ago... A little more properly recorded now.

Landing hard'll change your view of time
The minutes left in life will count down slowly

A crazy little song written while considering Ed Robertson's plane crash from a few years back, "Any Landing" is given much legitimacy by Ashley's incredible voice and Kavin Allenson's (Kavin S. Acoustic Church) guitar.

YOU NEED…
When the morning sun is
On the horizon
And the birds sing softly
From the trees
As the new day dawns
It welcomes me
And I breathe the air
Of a brand-new day
Well, it’s because I’m in love
In love and sharing life with you
As…
RPM 2k22
it's all you know
so why don't you show me
just how it's done
i'm mesmerized
the way that you lie
mostly to yourself
as if you're someone else
it's killing you
these things that you do to
simply remain
not breaking ground…
RPM 2k22
sigh
waiting through the night
but you're not coming over
thought you were my lover
same
every night and day
every single moment
now you have to own it
sighing, the emptiness
the last caress, fading away
crying, the tears…
RPM 2k22
you can't remember anything tonight
cause you lost the feeling, lost the feeling
the tide is turning, the shoreline is in sight
but you've lost the feeling, lost the feeling
whenever all seems hopeless try
to remember all…
RPM 2k22
been so long, without your touch
been so long, I want so much
to finally feel anything at all
to finally feel anything at all
as I brush against you walking down the hall
soon all my waiting will be over
patiently await the…
RPM 2k22
never need to convince myself
I always knew
surrounded by you
I am at peace where I am
can you say it too
the past is a clue
stop waiting, for things to change
just change, anything that you want
change, anything that you…
Lyrics - CM / Music - TB, SM
You’re all alright, I can rest now
Now you’re alright, I can rest
I’ve tried so hard, did my best now
Now you’ve tried hard, did you’re best
My mind’s eye watches from afar
I love you all for all you are…
2022 RPM Challenge song number 15.
Not too bad. I can live with most of it. The vocals are kinda spotty and I don't think I'll ever use the setup I used for the first guitar solo again (vibe after fuzz? Not this red head!) but I'm mildly…
Pointed sextant toward the north star
True direction is where you are
Roads of Rome lead to elsewhere
Can we go, no echo, no opinion
Unreal show, on your phone, no one’s watching
A din of quiet desperation
Soothing blanket fort vacation…
In the fading light, I compose a line
And then tongue tied tangled down upside
Unbroken
Unspoken
Better than the words I would have stumbled over
If you read my eyes, you could catch my vibe
Then I wouldn’t have to die inside
I came awake to watch the sun drop
Counting fortunes in the stars
hope for aurora borealis
Or freeze inside just where we are
I don’t know what you know
There is no Rosetta Stone
We left the party in the garden
I’d stay, but couldn…
Where did you go, man on a mission, path of omission
Out of control, lack of contrition, where did you go
You hid the clouds, black helicopter, waiting forever
A man the crowd, a plant or an actor, where did he go
You were caught there…
RPM 2k22
farewell my concubine
there's no need to get the door
but i'm bored
waiting for your big surprise
I can't wait for tomorrow
for a heart to appear
my dear
and by then you know i'll be gone
there are no words left
no convincing…
Comments on Keith Landry's stuff
i had to play this again imeeediately
Masterful. That's a great image of lying down aligned to the Pole star and the big dipper. Faved.
Wow... this is a stunner... a complete stunner.
Another excellent song/performance. Your voice, guitar, and songs just hit the spot for me.
there's something about the way you sing "cool wind BLOWing" and "satchel full of WORRies" that i really realy like. Gets me right down into the heart of the matter. Bravo.
This one's a bit special.
You can't do anything but smile :) w;-)
This is beautiful! w;-)

Killer track man!
Your music makes me say "aaaaahhhhhhh". Very chill.
Ah, glad this one made it! This album is a total gem, Mr L! Kudos to the man in the hat!
Love that folky feel, and oh my goodness, Ashley's voice works gorgeously here.
Brilliant!
Wow, love the thickening of the guitar sound at around 1 minute - very effective and emotive!
Lovely duet! You have great chemistry, guys!
This is a great song. Fabulous vocals also! My fave on the album so far.
Beautiful playing - lovely warm summer feelings here...maybe your Decembers are warmer than ours. :)
OOOOH and that guitar!!!!
Comments made by Keith Landry
Well, THIS is lovely.
This is about as spectacularly arranged an album as is humanly possible. Dang, man.
LOVING this arrangement.
Niiiiiiiice groooooooove.
This album is already feeling "Tour-de-force-y"
Dang, brother. This is OUTSTANDING.
Digging this.
Well, THAT has a nice sound... Instantly reminds me of Squeeze's Black Coffee in Bed in all the right ways!
Well, this track is just spectacular in every way.
Really digging these harmonica tracks. Seriously, first rate, y'all.
Oh, now THIS is pretty spectacular.
This might be my favorite song on the album. Really first rate production, this collection of songs.
Well, now THAT'S pretty spectacular.
Dang. Just, dang.
Dang. What a terrific sound on this track. Spectacular in every way.
I know what album I'll be dialing up later tonight!
Spectacular journey, my friend.
Seriously, Matt, this is brilliant.
Dude, this is SPECTACULAR.
Another excellent track!
