Comments on Gary Fox's stuff

The riff came to me in a flash and was probably the first time I recorded an idea on my (then) new micro-cassette player. It was supposed to be one of those spoken songs, complete with 70's backing vocals. I don't know if I pulled it off, but…

Very nice gritty guitar sounds!

Oh my God, I'm really sucking up to Gary Fox today, oh well better get it over and done with, another fave!

I really debated uploading this one. It's kind of weak production wise, but it was part of the album. You may love it, hate it, but I decided to keep everything intact. Warts and all...

Hardly a wart, Gary, this is great.

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.

Yes, the guitar does sound great on this track. It takes me back to when my late husband had an Epiphone semi acoustic, I always preferred it to the others.

A song for someone you know. A song for everyone you know. A song about denial, and denial of denial.

Oooo, cool guitar. Niiice!

Well, this is why I don't play drums. It's the best Moon I could pull off. I keep hammering the gtr riff over and over, but it's because it was so much fun to play. Its structure is a little too meandering in hindsight, but oh well. For whatever…

Love that intro.

So, I get this e-mail from a friend who had gone to NYC for a conference. At this conference she meets the love of her life, and the weekend turns into a steamy one spent locked in a hotel room. Slight problem...she was already married. She didn…

Venti Fox, please.

Turn this one up REALLY FREAKING LOUD! Written, recorded and polished off in about 45 minutes or so. Clearly my British influence shines forth in this one, right down to the SG through a Vox amp tones and backward riffs here and there. (and…

This song just gets better with every listen!

Well, this one is b***s to the wall rock and roll, gfox style. ;P I just wanted to do this basic loud chunka-chunka riff with the thumping kick-drum. However, the refrain (this song has no chorus) was something that I really liked singing. For…

I listened to this playlist about 4 times. Excellent stuff!

This was supposed to be keyboard only, then the gtr part came and just kind of took it over. You should hear the original demo, it is very, very different. I happen to really like this song though, and for some reason love my little keys solo…

This song is one that got left on the cutting room floor back in early 2005. It's fun to play, but the drums are almost too mechanical (they're real) for my taste. I thought I would finally let it out of the attic, even though it doesn't have…

Love that refrain - fantastic hook! Classic Fox.

Had the chorus idea floating in my head for a number of years, but never had the inspiration to do anything with it. Then a friend died and this song came out of me staring out the window in the cold of January 2005 wondering what the hell to…

Great track Gary, love the vocals.

This song has a tale similar to Left Me Wondering. This was made up on the mic, both gtr and vox. Unlike Left Me Wondering however, I went back and overdubbed some backing harmonies and I also did a little extra GTR on it too. What's fun about…

Thanks man...you've got some awesome songs yourself...like this one...great tune...kinda "Kinks"-y....I love the vocal harmonies on your stuff... cheers, damian

Originally conceived as a mellow-ish, Stephen Stills sounding number (at least the verses), then the chorus came to me out of nowhere and turned the whole song on it's ear. I think that was for the better. I have to admit that I surprised myself…

This one is a personal favorite of mine, though it got savaged on Garageband.com. Ah well... It has a lot of parts, lots of gtrs, and boatloads of harmonies. Actually, one guy on Garageband loved it. Maybe some day I will buy him a drink. Listen…
