Ok, before I go any further, I need to thank Alonetoner Greg Connor. He proposed a song-writing challenge around the theme of "Who Knew" in early/mid December. Many musicians here in the Alonetone community wrote some amazing songs around this…
I’d love to talk to you some time about how you get your vocals to sound this good (I mean besides just being a much better singer than me). I’m always jealous of how good it all sounds.
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...

Every year a few of us RPM Challenge aficionados record a Christmas track for fun. It's partially to dust off the cobwebs before February, partially just a chance to do something different. This year I decided to do a version of this number, since…

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…
Can i get a little whisky in this water said John
The day the world stopped being fair
I didnt know what to say so I said yeah.
I poured a double whisky and I placed it in his hand
And said friend, only true friends understand
He said friend…
Well I been playing the blues for so long
Kinda feel like playing jazz x 2
I dig the random instrumentation.
Play this in eight over three and a half
I been playing the blues for so long, make me feel like tryna rap x 2
I think I'll call…
Hey Alex...this track made me turn green with envy. Your voice is f***ing awesome. The trade-off of the gtr and the keys is perfect, well balanced. Laid back back-beat groove. Yeah, just checked the mirror, I am pure green.
Cheers,

Jay, you should try to get movie soundtrack work. This song would be great for some of the darker horror movies. You really have an original flair, and this screams "Welcome to my altered state, dark, dark world." Brilliant. DO something with this music, it needs to be out there.
This track was born out of an annual project or "artbomb" at New Year's, where a bunch of artists get together, pick a word or "theme" and all upload our musical interpretations of said word or theme. This was from a couple of years ago when the…
I love the dark, moody tone of this one. There is a certain cacophony happening here, but in a sort of creative destruction way. It has that non sequiter feeling of a real dream. That's challenging to do, and I think you pulled it off.
John Lennon started it with God pt.I, U2 followed with God pt.II, and I was presumptuous enough to think I could do God pt.III. A wee nod here and there to the first two tracks with my own twist.
Comments on Gary Fox's stuff

Heavy duty rock
Beautiful song Gary!
Never heard this one before. Shame on me. Glad I have now. Great song, love the acoustic guitar. Gonna hit that heart and favorite this for revisits.
Killer!
I’d love to talk to you some time about how you get your vocals to sound this good (I mean besides just being a much better singer than me). I’m always jealous of how good it all sounds.
I love this one, Gary.
I love...
Definitely darker than the typical Gary Fox selection. Crazy production quality. Damn fine top five playlist, Gary.
...And one of these days you're going to make an all acoustic album. Or else.
This is one of the first of your songs I ever heard. Instant fan. Been stalking you ever since.
Love when the band kicks in. How have I not favorited this before?
I can see why you chose this excellent song for the ultimate Gary Fox playlist. Getting more and more jealous by the minute.
Yup. Definitely a top fiver. Such a ridiculously good opening riff... And then the song gets better. And better. And better.
cool, dreamy song fine guitarwork enjoyed! KC
beautiful guitars here wonderful song! KC
great song, Gary very much enjoyed best wishes for 2019 KC
Another fine tune, Gary I really like your stuff KC
Proof there aren't enough prog angels! Tight like a festive drum (as always).
Well done my friend!

Ok, I just got a little greener. I love big soaring songs like this. So open, so wide. Great song Alex, great song.
Another great song...it sounds like Blind Faith wants to be you. I love the tone of this song. The gtr riffs are pure ear candy. Very tasty.

Love the gtrs, dark, vibrato tones. Cool Tom Waits vibe here with the vox. This is cool Jay, very cool.
