Name: How Much Did I Lose? by Tony Mecca
Duration: 3 min 57 s
Description: Stephanie Davis's performance achieves a beautiful melancholy in wondering what could have been, but also, the power attained via the strength that "moving-on" through life provides. Complimented by the wonderfully striking artwork from Steven Wiggs, this song has been a complete joy from the moment I started writing, until the final mix

Another great tune from an excellent songwriter. Amazing vocal performance!

How Much Did I Lose?

Riders On The Storm - Cover Song Gary Reed Trio live recording

This haunting and unique reading of THE DOORS classic maintains a close kinship with the original version while managing to sound - well, quite different.

Philadelphia singer/songwriter Tony Mecca serves wisdom from deep in the inner city via a delicious storytelling-based blueprint that inventively incorporates elements of Pop, Blues, Folk and plain old Rock 'n Roll. His stories fuse equal amounts of humor and sympathy to thoughtfully examine life experiences, personalities and real people dealing with ordinary and sometimes surreal circumstances.

"Only the slightest breeze from the swirling storm of humor, passion, hope, and reflection that emanates from these songs will send you rushing to introduce yourself to each and every one of the sumptuously eccentric characters that laugh, cry, love and cavort on the mean streets and avenues of Mecca’s beautiful urban American landscape."

Through live performances with his Heavy MeNtal Gypsys, and his steadily growing recorded output - Purple Monkeys (2003) / Princes of the New Dark Age (2005) / Hello, Goodbye & Everything in Between (2007) / Fun (2011) / Heavy Mental Gypsies (2016) / Fractured Poetry (2020) – Mecca has developed a loyal following in and around his hometown that is gradually beginning to infiltrate other regions both nationally and abroad. His music has been labeled Classic Rock, Singer-Songwriter and Adult Contemporary among others.

As anyone more than a little familiar with Tony Mecca’s music will tell you, his infectious raspy voice and hook laden melodies may initially confiscate most of your attention, but it is his sage commentary on the beauty and failings of the "human drill" that will eventually permeate your head, heart and soul.
