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...
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.
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…

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…

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,

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…

I was going of to bed but when I saw this track by Redler on the collaborations board over on Songcrafters http://songcrafters.org/community/index.php?topic=19632.0 i had to investigate ....i heard it.....and jumped on it ....i can always have…
Quick recording of a new set of pipes I'm working on. Long winded explanation- prior to the late 19nth century most Irish pipes featured very small bores and finger holes and were pitched well below modern concert pitch. I've always loved them…
Just an experiment from a while back using multiple delay units. I hated it initially, but after not hearing it for a few months I decided there were enough interesting moments to warrant sharing.
This is a Phil Keaggy tune. I swiped his original loop and then built my own thing on top of it. Might have been longer, but my volume swell effect keeps slipping out of sync with everything else. May work on it more at a later date
Hi everyone.. I wrote this song for Archie Watson, son of my dear friends Lauren and Bradley Watson, who sadly was diagnosed with Tay-Sachs disease just before Christmas. Tay-sachs is a rare genetic disorder for which there is currently no cure…
Nice groove, great feel. Love the strut to this one. Great collection of songs; thanks for brightening this Saturday morning. Perfect fit for the day here...
Let me introduce to you
Every woman child and man
The place I did my growing up
Raised by grandma's hand
I think you'll find
That folks are kind
They're sure to ask you in
Enter the warmth
Close the door
And my story will begin…
A dramatisation of events from school.. hope 'Shaun' never hears this, and if he does, that he likes it in someway, and that things turned out alright in the end..
It was always rainin.
It filled him up
It summed it up
So perfectly
How nothing…
Tell me can you teach me bout your finely written poetry
Dont care about the content I just want to make em notice me
Such a fine hand they'd say wooo, study it closely
Been practicing all day I think I'm ready least I aughta be.
Caligraphy…
It aint like no ones done this before
But how can you tire of beautiful chords
In the fifties
In Tenessee
Where my love
was born
Two young men upped and
crossed the yard
both cold cos it was rainin hard.
One of them turned said…
Getting kind of sci-fi here, and I really went overboard with the samples.
It's like if George Clinton and Arjen Lucassen collaborated on a funk electronica piece after watching The 13th Floor on nonstop repeat for three weeks.
Freesound…
I went a little sample crazy this year for the RPM challenge. (This song is the tip of the iceberg, and then it gets far worse.)
Thematically, I guess this one resulted from spending a month between the hospital and a rehab facility last year…

Comments made by Gary Fox
Great stomping feel on this, cool number!
Great song!
Very nice!
Just perfect.
I like the swirling nature of this. Glad you decided to put it out for us to hear.
Another fine piece of music! Volume pedal and e-bow? Not sure, doesn't matter anyway. Sounds so open and spacious. Love it...
Great sounds, great piece! Is that a volume pedal I hear? Excellent all around, Kirk! Cheers, Gary
I just love this song. In a musical sense, I fall in love with it all over again every time I hear it.
Nice work Lady Jane!
Love the tones...
Cool experimental stuff 34!
Nice groove, great feel. Love the strut to this one. Great collection of songs; thanks for brightening this Saturday morning. Perfect fit for the day here...

Great twang and slide. Cool song, very cool.
Wow, what a great use of reverb. This has a fantastic mood. And the bells. Awesome.
Great number.
Great playing, killer lyrics. Very, very tasty.
Sweet creamy music. Sounds like a hot day driving through the country. Excellent.
