Album US 2016 on F of X Records label
(AOR, Art Rock, Beat, Alternative Rock, Eurodance)
This collection was the last CD to be realized at 21 Walnut Ave. aka Sonic Underground Studios. It was completed in August 2004 just before I left to work at George Benson's studio in Lahina, Maui. Six of the tunes : Seeking That Bitter Clown, I Can Crawl Again, Hitman From Hicksville, Now You're On The Inside. Chaos Is Calling, The Day I Died were derived from these little demonstration tracks I was constructing for a possible recording client who had connections with SONY Music. That particular client dropped off the face of the Earth leaving me with all this unfinished music. So what else was an ambitious songwriter suppose to do? I completed them. It was easy. At one the time, this was a two CD set, but the logistics of putting out a double CD was too complicated to deal with in the early days of digital distribution so I broke them up. It's sister disc "Rubber Solstice" came out a little while later. In fact, the Rubber Solstice tune "Why You Have To Be So Cruel?" was derived from these demo tracks as well as the "Eros Ebb & Flow" song "Love Me, Love Me Not". That song was presented to Nicole Placco to finish but she kind of let it slide. Two years later I played it for Susan DeVita who immediately knew what to do with it. Once again proving that nothing goes to waste here in my musical universe. -JT Final Musical Diary From Sonic Underground Studios, Stony Brook, NY (1992 - 2004) Realized and fussed with by John Tabacco : Lyric-coloratura tenor, general programmer and instigator SA3 Mastering Cover photography of JT at Blydenberg Park, Smithtown, 2003 by Eric Weaver CD Design and Various Pict Files by Arty Rukidin © 2004 by Farben Fosfeen Art All Music and Words © 2001-2003 by John Tabacco Published by It Iz What It Iz Music (SESAC) except: Hitman From Hicksville Words © 2003 by Nigey Lennon and John Tabacco Music © 2003 by John Tabacco Published by Nylon Music (ASCAP) / It Iz What It Iz Music (SESAC) Don't Fall Silent Words © 2003 by Nigey Lennon and John Tabacco Music © 2003 by John Tabacco Published by Nylon Music (ASCAP) / It Iz What It Iz Music (SESAC) I've Known You Before I Met You Words © 2004 by John Tabacco Music © 2004 by John Tabacco and Natalie Pierro Published by It Iz What It Iz Music (SESAC) Goodnight New York / Now You're On The Inside Words and Music for "Now You're On The Inside" © 2004 by John Tabacco Published by It Iz What It Iz Music (SESAC) Words and Melody for "Good Night New York" © 1993 by Julie Gold Published by Irving Music Inc./Julie Gold Music (BMI)
