Summer Grass- I didn’t originally intend for this to be the title track, but since most, though not all, of the songs on this album sound like summer to me, I decided, why not? The guitar even sounds humid and warm, but in that nice July way…
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…

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…

Figure Out- There are about 4-5 takes of this song, all different. The song started off in the key of D, but I couldn’t hit the notes in the chorus. I then tried it in A, but it was lacking drive and energy. I tried it in G, but I couldn’t get…

Well, Well, Well- There is still unadulterated, unabashed love in the world. Yes, the song is masculine sounding, no shock there, since I am a guy. However, despite a friend’s comments to the contrary, I didn’t intend this song to be about getting…

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…
Keep Shining Through- Last minute lyrics…kind of a cop-out, since it’s a song about song-writing. I didn’t have any better ideas and after losing so much time from the outage I had to just bust out what I could. It was pretty much written on the…

A long one, something of a centrepiece for the record. Open tuning and ebow fun.

Fancied trying some fast piano. This one sounds like the single to me.
This is the first piece that I recorded - just after midnite on Feb. 1st. with Anne Cozean in mind as vocalist. Anne and I have worked together before and she delivered a great performance across two tracks. I was thinking Portishead going in…

thought surveillance, the fighting on the ground

billy boy where did you go

None of us knows where we'll be tomorrow,
Let alone 2 weeks from this date.
Will I still be in this place?

Comments on Gary Fox's stuff
I just love this, good call with the faint organ
The extra percussion really adds to this groove nicely. Classic rock and roll. Cool!
Well done.
Fantastic Gary!
really works.. glad it didnt get lost along the way. and even if the the riff was derivative, where it headed certainly wasnt. nice one chappy
especially love the vocals on this one. Apart from the fact that its a brilliantly written song. excellent
really like the chorus melody on this one
Really brings back the sound of my teens. I liked it. Great vocals as well.
Man of many talents! Good job!
Love the guitar tone on this! (and the song!)
definitely a stones groove...keith richards should listen to you to remember what its like
Am I the only one who's noticing the Todd Rundgren vibe going on here? Awesome.
This track slays me. It is firmly lodged in my head. I would pay money to see this played live.

Great liquid groove; great change-ups and harmonies. Smooth...and amazing harmonies...
This is awesome. I love the chorus, especially the backing vox. Brilliant S-dude!
Great song, love the harmonies.
I was about to say this was nice and delicate, and then I glanced at the title again. Great minds I suppose? Wonderful playing.
Great sound on that acoustic. It's fantastic. Cool chord prog and cool song all around. Nice...
Nice guitar work, Rog. Cool song.
Great chorus...good movement on this.
So this is how you kick ***. Nice track, great tones here. Right in the pocket...
Such a great song, such great playing. The dynamics are brilliant.
Nice moody piece. Very cool.
Great song, great tones and great arrangements. Excellent hook, nice work!
This is a very tasty piece of guitar work.
This has a great tone and feel to it. Excellent playing, excellent playing.
Very cool.
Great melody! I like the backing synth tracks as well coupled with the crunching gtr.
Great instrumentation and use of space on this song. The vox is great.
Awesome.
Great song, great performance. Nice work.
Better than the original. I speak with authority here. ;)
Damn Alex, is there anything you don't play? This is great.
