Fans of Beatles, Badfinger, Fogelberg, Moody Blues, Raspberries and other Retro Classic rock.
I am a fan of the Beatles, Fogelberg, Raspberries, Badfinger, Moody Blues, solo Beatles, Eagles. Any music that has solid vocals, good harmonies and a hook! I also am developing a fascination with old jazz standards. I am self taught on everything I play which explains my limitations. LOL! Up until a few years ago I was all accoustic all the time and did very little recording on an old 4 trak. I had written a lot of songs over the years on my accoustic most of those are not here as I started using the computer to record and wanting a more electric sound so out came an electric guitar, then I wanted a beat so the cheap drum machine came next, then I needed a bottom so the cheap bass was bought, then my drums sucked so I needed loops. Then I wanted some strings/sax so my keyboard was bought. Well you know the drill the more you get the more you want and songs that took 3 hours now take 3 days. And so my one man 6th grade band was born. I have put samples of the music I have written here on this website. I use drum loops and all other instruments are live Course you probably can tell that, LOL). Anyway as Harry Chapin's Mr. Tanner would say music is my life not my livelihood. I have met some great artists on SC and continue to hear great artists on SC. Click on the stations link to find Soundclick Radio stations where my music is playing. My music playing on these stations has been a pleasant surprise as these stations are filled with great musicians. I have also had the opportunity to collaborate with some very good musicians here on SC. My brother Jim, Svenni Bjorgvins, Juri Rosenfeld, Johnny Proctor, His Masters Choice, DeAnn Sanders, Dawn Sinclair and most recently Dawn Diamond. I am very grateful to all these artists for helping me to have more fun than should be allowed for free. Writing/recording/producing music I find to be very rewarding. I am learning so much everyday about every facet. The exposure to so many great musicians has really helped me evolve as well. Well if you are still awake thanks for coming by. Other SoundClick Artists I recommend: Click on their links to hear some great music! Jim DeLecce my very talented brother Great Musician and great help to me in too many ways to count.

Story behind the song
George Harrison Cover. A friend of mine likes to request me to do covers once in awhile. If I can do it I will usually try...
Lyrics
I can see by your grin That you're trembling within It's all over town, cheer down And the smile on your face Is sometimes out of place Don't mind, no frowns, cheer down If your hair should fall If your shares should crash You'll get by even without getting a rash There's no tears to be shed I'm going to love you instead I want you around, cheer down When your teeth drop out You'll get by even without taking a bite If your dog should be dead I'm going to love you instead The world loves a clown, cheer down I want you around, cheer down

Was/is massive fan of George and first heard og sad to say via Lethal Weapon 16 (lol) Great rendition here and guitar/vocals are faithfully emulating the quietest Beatle for sure. You’d totally nail ‘this song’ for sure (from 33/3, ‘76) great work!

I must own up to not knowing this song. A 'Fabulous', version. I must check out George's version. This is truly awesome. Bravo Tony.

I think George was very underrated. Great song writer and guitar player . I’ve not heard this song but it sounds great and can imagine George singing it . Very well performed Tony .
