the last weeks of winter, from the end of February through the first weeks of March, always seem the longest.  That is true both figuratively and metaphorically!

Last Throes Of Winter

Back in the 80s the old Helmsley Hotel on the corner of Broadway and 42nd St. in NY was called the Harley Hotel. It was a pretty ritzy place and I used to walk by it every day on the way to work. I used to daydream how it would be pretty cool if it were invaded by bikers thinking it was their kind of place!

GG WTommy Vegas Ft. Terri Haas - I Don't Know Why

Until the day I met Terri. THE Love of My Life, I hated love songs. I used to watch all the other guys, hand in hand with their girlfriends, all lovey dovey. It made me think about all the love I was missing.

Faith in Something

This girl Caroline gave me her phone number. I called her several times and one day I spontaneously sang the chorus into her voicemail. She never did call me back...

Caroline

This song is about the many people who went to Las Vegas, :just passing through" on their way somewhere else. Twenty years later they're still in Vegas, they never got there.

George Gelish WTommy Vegas Ft. Matthew Searing - Just Passing Through

This song was written in the 1980s but it applies even more today, as Post-911 America quickly morphs into "Security Nation." I like the clever way my brother Joe worked all the tenets of "1984" into the verses - "War is Peace," "Ignorance is Strength," and "Freedom is Slavery."  It's always been one of my favorites from his songbook.  So I recorded it.

Big Brother is Watching You (Joe Gelish)

Cover of the Old Crow Medicine show song, later recorded by Darius Rucker with great success.  Monty Bopp recorded this to be played at his wedding to be the first dance with his new bride.  Of course it was a huge hit, but deserves to be heard so I am posting it here.
