Let George Do It (2024 remix)

Some people just never seem to go away.  

OH WOW, IT’S YOU AGAIN

When I'm sure you're gone at last
I make believe that I have no past
I make a cheer and wipe away all the tears
Take another room - Find another friend
And when I feel that you're not real
I stop and then

Oh wow, it's you again
How odd I should meet you here
Oh wow, it's you again
You haunt me - You taunt me
Why don't you disappear?

This hotel had a view
One brick wall and shades of blue
I paid my bill and started over again
I flipped another penny - counted up to ten
I let her rip just like a gypsy dog and then

( chorus )

In this warm foreign place
There's not one familiar face
It seems this time I left myself far behind
I write another letter I know I'll never send
I lock the door and walk out for some air
and then...

Oh wow, it's you again
How odd I should meet you here
Oh wow, it's you again
You haunt me - You taunt me
Why don't you disappear?

*In my head it seems so easy
to work the pieces in
We had much in common you and I
But the picture becomes ugly
As the truth solidifies
And just when I should realize
That it's me I've got to find...

Oh wow, it's you again
How odd I should meet you here
Oh wow, it's you again
You haunt me - You taunt me
Why don't you disappear?

Oh Wow, It's You Again

A cover of the shortest Steely Dan song officially released.  A Becker and Fagen classic this time with Tuba.

Through With Buzz

Another great "early years" tune from Becker and Fagen circa 1970. Yet again, studio downtime afforded me the time to arrange this piece. The drums were set up for some other project and I just improvised the song in one take. I added a few measures where I thought things could open up a bit with a solo. In this case, it's a thought out guitar solo performed in the cheesiest of ways (of course it's me playing).

PETER GEE - Sunset Blue

Baxie talks with Steely Dan biographer Brian Sweet. His book “Steely Dan: Reeling in the Years” is about to be released on paperback this August. The book is the definitive story about how Donald Fagan and Walter Becker became two of the most unlikely Rock Stars in history. Brian follows the story that took them from being reclusive song writers at Bard College, to reluctantly performing on stage, to refusing to play live so that they could focus all of their attention on writing and producing some of the most flawless albums ever recorded. Such an amazing story! Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and on the Rock102 app!

John Tabacco is an American composer, singer songwriter, producer, recording engineer, multi instrumentalist and graphic artist. He has engineered /mixed and mastered music for hundreds of New York recording artists as well as projects released on BMG: The Kemelions, RCA: Faze, Rampage/Rhino: Rhett Forrester, Columbia: Rebbie Jackson, Rykodisc : Bob Marley, Columbia: Chris Jasper, Electra: Sonia Dada and Nickleodeon’s Are You Afraid Of The Dark? He is the CEO of It Iz What It Iz Music Publishing which currently holds over 750 songs in its catalog. He has been an associate producer for IndiMusic TV and hosts a bi-weekly radio program (CLAM RADIO) on college radio WUSB.fm since 1999. He is currently the head of A&R at Modern Voices Digital Distribution.

His musical background consists of extensive study of orchestration with noted 20th century composer John Lessard, harmony with the late electronic music maverick Bulent Arel, and composition with Stony Brook University professor Peter Winkler. He received his BA in Music from Stony Brook University in 1983. 

Like an unfolding musical diary / puzzle, Tabacco’s music and art are constantly being re-worked, juxtaposed and intertwined. His style is a melding of pop - jazz -rock - avant garde / aleatory, classical and comedy.  He has been recording his music non stop since 1979.

Of note: In 1989 the satirical, absurd house song "Go House Yourself" co-written by Tabacco, Pati and DiMauro reached position 39 on Billboard's dance chart. 

In 2014 Tabacco signed a record deal with Texas, indie label, Muffin Records. They released his CD “Unfulfilled Shopping Carts Syndrome” internationally.
