Top Of The Pops circa 1972! Remember when all those bands in the early 70's where adding synth to every song but the lyrics meant something (sometimes)? Pure excitement, pure bubblegum, pure fun. Well, this is my offering and thanks to all of…
Well, after my conversation (if you could call it that) with my Seagull Mini-Jumbo, I started playing THIS song...
So now my guitar has filed for legal separation. I guess it never realized what true musicianship was all this time. It actually had the nerve to ask for Gary's email to see if he'd be at the Listening Party in Portsmouth (as if it thinks I'll still bring it along to meet Gary face-to-fretboard).
A brief glimpse, but that's all. Inspired by last April. It's for everyone, but no one in particular. Yes, this one gives more than a passing nod to Ham and Evans. Thanks gents!
Just by to listen to the awesomeness again... I actually had the crazy idea of trying to cover this song with just a stripped down arrangement on the acoustic, but when I mentioned it to my guitar it angrily asked if I was "friggin' nuts" and went off to gripe in the corner of the room, mumbling something about my inadequacies as a musician and foolishness to try to mess with perfection.
We aren't speaking now. I'll try to re-establish contact with the six-string's representation by offering to play some James Taylor on it later, but after hearing this track I don't think it'll be interested in my version of "mediocre guitar playing" (I quoted the guitar on that one) any time soon.
This one started as a the title line while driving in my car. All I had was the line and it's melody. I built the song around that about 6 months later. The lyrics are self explanatory.
It's about a few folks, some known, some known to me. I liked the chunkiness of the chord that starts it, but wanted to do something a little more 'spacey' than a pure rock number. It's all true too.

This one had better not be cr@p now lol...
And it's not... it's tingle-down-the-spine music.
A perfect finish to an utterly stunning album. Well done, very well done indeed.
This song started as the riff on my Strat while fooling around with some FX. I knew it needed to be a big dance number, and then realized there is a great story about the power of music and dance, which I hid in the lyrics. See if you can figure…

A little fun riff that came from noodling on my Epi whilst watching the idiot box one night. It's kind of written for a friend who is a little lost in a self-imposed exile from life.

This went by while I was musing on the earlier tracks...
Now I'm listening to it again. Another goodie. Stunning vox, and I'm liking the slide. The middle section is genius.

I've run out of words... I've broken me "Favourite" button...
And your rhythm guitar playing... wow... you've got the same thing going that Malcolm Young has.
Good grief... I'm only three songs into this album... this is just... just... fabulous.
Yep, that reverb is the one it needed.
Like DB sez, yes, ELO. But there's Mott The Hoople, etc, as well... much else... all that 70s goodness... and an excellent song as well.
Created all in one go with nothing to write on while I walked the Hilton Head beach in the rain last spring, this gentle little song more came through me than from me.

Cool KEYS!!

SO TRUE!!! Another great song!! Man you just spit great songs out!!
ROCK AND ROLL!!

Just Great! So dig the horns and strings at the end!!
Caught myself humming the chorus again and again, this has hit quality
Great song!!!!!
I second what Andy says. :) Regards, Steffen

I ain't got nuthin sensible left to say Faved
Sigh... :-)
And that guitar break!!

This is a stunner. Had to come back and listen twice. So well put together... unbelievably good listening.
Brilliant.
Yep, always listen to what the song says :-) Another superb one. On certain days, this would be my favourite of the album so far.

Comments made by Gary Fox
Great use of percussion on this number, and again, I love the use of space.
Your guitar work is so very, very tasty.
Reverb...so beautiful, so luscious. This song...wow.
I love the sound you have imbued in the record this year. This song makes such a great use of tone, space, and texture.
Yet another amazing piece of music. This record sounds beautiful.
Damn, this is a great song.
Within seconds of the song opening, I am hooked. This sounds amazing, absolutely amazing.
What a great collection, Keith. Magnificent.
I don't have words to describe how good this is.
Yeah, I love this one.
I love the warm, upfront sound of this. Great song!
Brilliant, my friend.
Brilliant tune! The band sounds killer!
This sounds fantastic. Totally loving the chords and the interplay with the bass.
Love the echo effects on the chorus. Cool tune, man!
Nice searing tone on that guitar. Sounds like the strings were on fire. Very cool...
Keys! Awesome tone, really like how the chorus comes in.
I like the pulsing bass, perfect offset to the groove. And, as always, great guitar work yet again!
Nice use of the Mixolydian mode! I like how it makes the songs have a positive musical tone against the darker aspect of the lyrics. Very cool KC!
Dude...killer. Loving the rhythm section on this...
