This Lovin’ Cup- I was watching the idiot box and just holding my guitar when this little vamp on a B chord came out of nowhere. Using the same recorder, I recorded about 20 seconds of the riff. The lyrical idea came on the trip to Chicago, while…
Matter Of Fate- This song started as a riff I was doing while tuning my guitar. It sounded cool, so I happened to record it on a small dictation recorder I have so I wouldn’t forget it. When I listened to the riff it just screamed Sticky Fingers…
We all know someone like this. Sometimes I'm like this. Anyway, recorded using my Epiphone semi-hollowbody. I love the gtr sound on this one. Again, it's older, so the sonic quality isn't anywhere near what I do now.
Hold On- Ok, this one is really hard. Not in a rock sense, but other ways. Musically, this song really dances on the line of schmaltz, and a few times, trips over it. I had a hard time singing some of the lines, since I don’t have a pretty voice…

Great tune, Gary. Reminds me a bit of the Boo Radleys. Vocals are really nice, wouldn't know you struggled with any of it if you hadn't said. And personally I don't detect an ounce of schmaltz!

Derivative- This one was not supposed to be on the album, but I changed my mind and worked on it. The reason for the intended omission was because the riff, which I have been playing with for a few months, just sounded so derivative of Dear Prudence…

A Song About an old Saying......
Sh*t Happens......
Lyrics
T.Mokbul 2010
-In A Day-
Half a Glass of Gasoline
Mixed with Some Kerosene
Stirred in with Coffee
Laced with amphetamine
All That it Takes in A Day
To get by…
From the archives. Traditional Irish slow air. Myself on the Uilleann pipes with synth backing. This was recorded at a concert here in Weston back in I think '92. Originally recorded on an ancient 4 track machine and then transferred to cassette…
all the pounding waves
drowning out the sound
the sound is poison
diving down below
sinking very slow
drown away the sound
if I, can't make it
stop your soliloquy
I feel the death inside me
in this succession
the still and quiet
I will succumb…
I found this while doing some clearing out. Its the only demo me and a friend Ben Price recorded when we were briefly looking to form a band in about 2005/2006. Listening back to it, strained vocals aside I kinda liked it so thought I should give…
Comments on Gary Fox's stuff
Mr. Fox I really loved this song.
This is so good!
love this, especially your choir.
fan-tastic.
Like this 'un. Very Tragically Hip if you don't mind the comparison.
Reminds me of You Never Give Me Your Money from Abbey Road. Excellent.
Great tune, Gary. Reminds me a bit of the Boo Radleys. Vocals are really nice, wouldn't know you struggled with any of it if you hadn't said. And personally I don't detect an ounce of schmaltz!
This song is really great, Gary. Underestimated, I should say. Excellent work!
Bit more keyboards :-) and "Boston" will reborn here. I like it. You're American Rocker, yeahh...
Nice Stonesy riff and production. Like all the vocals too...
Very cool! Yes, Stones-ish but "happier" than most of their stuff. Nice slide part too.
Great track mate excellent, brilliant.
OMG! This is Superb!!! Faved!
Great song, and I love the guitar solo
Oh, just read when i clicked the send button already, someone said Rundgreen :-) Yes, that is a far better comparison!
Love the vocal harmonies on this track, and the guitar riff as well ( no, it is not stones, it is more enjoyable)
Awesome twisted genius here. Love it.
This track is special. Really brilliant!
This is gorgeous, Gary.
Calls to mind 'Blue Nile' for some reason. Beautiful song! :)
Comments made by Gary Fox
Cool song brother. I like the simplicity of the guitar mixed with the dark lyrics.
The slide gtr parts have this great earthy tone to them. This song has a great feel. I love the suspensions and country blues overtones.
And yet again, more brilliant finger style playing. Beautiful work, Kavin.
Such great finger-picking... I love the song and all of the changes. Great one Kavin, simply great.
Love the Univibe effect here...
Tasty, very tasty.
I like the raw energy you put into your songs Rob. I would come see you live in heartbeat. Cheers, Gary
This has kind of a cool Revolver goes country feel to it. Nice work Rob. Cheers, Gary...
Kirk, Your versatility and skill with different styles, instruments and moods never ceases to amaze me. Cheers, Gary
Great song Mr. Moody. Excellent vox on this one.
Alex, I need to listen to you a lot more.
Cool piece, love the textures. The classical gtr interplay with the synth, the pads...all of it. Cheers! Gary
Большие песни. Cheers, Gary
This is an excellent piece. I love the melody and the tone of the piano.
I like the interplay between the clarinets and violins (violas?) And kirk is right, the cello is beautiful.
This one has a cool vibe and tone to it. Excellent work. I like the solo parts, they feel like you could float on them.
This is a very cool tune. Great falsettos... Wow, what a great voice. Organ is killer...
Bethan's right. Great track.
Great vibe here Skidoo! It's rainy here and around 1am. I have the windows wide open and this is up loud.
I like where this is going Alex
