This is a remix of this song.
It was recorded in 2010, and I was in a hurry to post it elsewhere because I'm so fond of the song itself. But I've always hated the old mix - I lost the essence of the guitars and choirs during mastering because…
Well, here we go then...

Yeah you know what it is that I want

How many times did you wonder whether I would dare?
Oh never mind...

New original from me, hot off the old wotsit.
When it was half written yesterday, I was considering binning it as a throwaway exercise - I do that quite often. But I played the songwriting demo to someone else and, er, apparently I should finish…

I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…

This is a pretty intense listen for something written 25 years ago! You have a wonderful gift for making every word sound completely in the moment and real.

New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…

Mrs R is right . . . *"It's ready"*
You have acomplished what many can not; Offer a complete thought in a succinct manor.
Nice going Andrew! You make it sound easy.

When I tell people I am a terrible singer, this is what I'm talking about. Listening to myself here is making my teeth ache.
This was the first idea I had for the April 2020 RPM Challenge - Social Distance Edition. I used a 1x12 combo amp…
I live in a house with a river running at the bottom of the garden so i wrote a song about it.

When I get down by the river and I watch it flow
I Wonder where the hell it finally goes
Snaking…
Wow. That works. Really uplifting.
We've only got slugs down the bottom of our garden. And the top. And a lot of snails in the middle. No ants though - they all seem to have moved into the house in the last few days...
This one came to me as I was sleeping on a plane, delayed on a tarmac. I dreamt that McCartney was singing this, sort of. I came out of the dream abruptly when the pilot said we were finally cleared to take off. I racked my brain to figure out…
Reminds me of a song called Scrambled Eggs ;)
(That's the blurb, not the song itself)
And strangely, I can hear McCartney singing this too... lol
Love the little horn part on the end!
This one came solely as the chorus melody and the basic hook "So I'll sing my song for Carolina" It's all I had for months, but I thought it was a good chorus line so I kept humming it to see if it would sprout further ideas. The mid section is…
This one started as the verse chords and some rambling vox melody. My demo of just gtr and me mumbling resulted in something vaguely Lennon-esque in delivery, so I kept that aspect and took it further for the mid section. The harmonies in the…
The word agony and the basic melody for the first line came first. I sat on it for a while, then one evening tried to figure out the chords for it. The verse chords followed very quickly, effectively falling out of the gtr after I had discovered…
A total gtr inspired tune. The riff came first and I knew it needed thunderous drums. The rest fell into place. I envisioned this one being very Top of The Pops on a Saturday in 1971, or Granada TV in summer of' 70, depending on your point of…
I have never written a song about the RPM Challenge itself, until now. Have we really been here for 15 years? It needed to be fun, it needed to be a great dance number. I had the gtr riff, and realized it would be even better as a horn line. The…
Home from work for 9 days. How is everyone doing? Stay safe and have fun on this weird global time off! got a new FX peddle , super octave, that im using here instead of a bass guitar.
Enjoy! Reef
It's ok.
136 BPM Standard Tuning
If anyone is interested in trying their own lead on this track let me know i will upload just the backing track.
Take care everyone and stay safe
Ukulele and vocals performed by Jazz, 12.
She's starting to write her own stuff (proud!) but just to get her in the studio for the first time, here is a cover of a song by Vance Joy.
Haven’t uploaded any material in ages! I have been building custom guitars which has been taking up some of my spare time. This track features my first guitar build which I am playing over a backing track.
This was a collab between my old friend Joe and I from a couple years ago. I recorded the basic track and sent it to him so he could play the main melody/ guitar solo over it. I took the ending of the guitar solo section and reversed it to give…

The Bee Gees meet the big bad-ass wooolf. Very cool.
I like the guitar, and range of vocals
Great sound there
I really like this tune. Your music is super! Very, very cool! All of it!

Magic.

Very nice Andrew , must have been difficult to sing man , i think the length of the song suits the content and style , fab

Love it. What a vocal on this. You always connect the listener with the song. Another beauty added to the catalog.
Heart-felt springs to mind, love it
This one got to me right away. Wow, great song!

Dug this. Loved the lead break. And the vocals are a lot better than you think they are. My teeth aren't aching at all!

Have I heard this before? Don't seem to have commented before... I do seem to have favourited it... But anyways... Omigosh :)
Another utterly fabulous set of songs Mr Fox. Well done, big time.
Rocking. Am I imagining it, or is there a backing vocal that sounds like someone other than you?
Reminds me of a song called Scrambled Eggs ;) (That's the blurb, not the song itself) And strangely, I can hear McCartney singing this too... lol Love the little horn part on the end!
Run out of words to type... Wow
Yep. LOVED this one.
Love it. The lyrics are fabulous. I don't often notice lyrics on a first listen, but wow... Fab song
Woof! Yes
Love how you converted the guitar riff to horns - masterful decision (says a guitarist)
That works. Nice one.
Yep. Stay safe :)
Nice and laid back.
Oh yeah. Cool playing.
Nice one
Made me smile there Greg
Wow. That's mightily cool.
Mighty fine playing.
That's cool. The reversed solo at the end works really well.
