So, I did multiple demos of this in my bathroom (for the echo) in the days before recording it. It is fun to play on acoustic. I record the real thing and it just screamed string quartet (or the Fox version of said quartet) I had never done strings…
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…

I am Ironman.
With this one, I purposely kept it stripped down. I could have lavished it up, but I wanted the tone to match the stark clarity of realization. Sometimes this one sounds thin to me, but stark clarity sometimes has the same: "That…
A chance gtr line turns into a big production. This is a song I wrote for myself, meaning it's probably too long, it probably has too many parts and it probably has too much going on in it. YET, I don't care. I wrote it for me. Oh, and I am very…
Bouncy, with ear candy. Wanted to do something different with this one, keep it from being too predictable. I think I succeeded. I also happen to really like my "squawk, squawk" gtr stabs in the verses.
Eerie, mournful, beautiful, but so, so lonely.
These are the words of a friend listening to it. When you make a conscious choice as to who you should be, what you were meant to be, what you have failed to be, until now...
This one is meant…
Stripped down, I almost did this one as a live, one take vox and gtr "on-mike" bit. I did the song, kind of liked, but decided to do a tracked version, just to see what it would sound like. Ended up liking it more.
This is a track of serendipity (is that how you spell that?) I was hours from deadline, lots of mixing left to do, and this track was FAR from done. I love the congas in this one. In general, this is a fun one for me. For once I actually don't…

This is a fun track Gary, I really dig it. Lot's space for the guitars and vox to breathe here, it serves the song well. Didn't see that breakdown coming, cool surprise!
Yay!! with Feb over and life almost back to normal, I get to check out a whole new Gary Fox album!! Great track to kick it off with! Wonderful cover art btw Gary.

They say you drive…
I struggled to get this thing completed. I've been sat on it for weeks, finished, debating whether I was really prepared to let it go.
I loved the song when I wrote it, inspired by a wonderful week at the end of September. But the recording…
Matt, this album is really something special. Your singing is great, the performances are top notch, and I love the production. Be proud of this, be really proud. Great ****ing record, my good sir.
An afternoon on the Saco with Karen always leads to delusions of grandeur. Now where did I leave that eye patch?

Another cool groove from KC's Groove. Love the guitar in this!
Fantastic spread and air in this mix. Loving the groove on the gtr coming out of the far right speaker. Nice!
Instant hit. Love the intro!
I love the guitars on this. Great tone!
Still love this tune...
This is a really cool number, Brett!
Cool, different textures on this one, very smooth and subversive. Nice work!
Nice riff, cool tune!
Dude...I love this, and not just because of the subject matter...

This intro is fantastic.
Cool number. For some reason it sounds like it could have been part of School House Rock back in the day...
The production quality on your record this year is over the top, Matt. Really stellar job.
Cool departure from the rest of the record. Bass is awesome.
Love the syncopation. Matt, this record is kick-arse.
This. Is. F***ing. Awesome.
Brilliant.
Damn, Matt. You have nailed a great vibe and sound here.
Dude, this sounds fantastic!
Wow...great, great record, Keith. Every number was so very good; you captured a mood here. Congrats!
