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
Johns tribute to his mother.. My tribute to him and another travis PIcking exercise..
Lyrics
Julia Lennon/Mccartney Half of what I say is meaningless But I say it just to reach you, Julia Julia, Julia Ocean child calls me So I sing the song of love Julia Julia, seashell eyes Windy smile calls me So I sing the song of love Julia Her hair of floating sky is shimmering Glimmering in the sun Julia, Julia Morning moon touch me So I sing the song of love Julia When I cannot sing my heart I can only speak my mind Julia Julia, sleeping sand, silent cloud Touch me So I sing a song of love Julia Hmm, hmm, hmm Calls me So I sing the song of love for Julia, Julia, Julia

Brilliant rendition! so many times I'd play White sides one and two over and over again and this was one of my faves (in contrast to say something like Ob-la-di which also brilliant piece), the sweet and sour of that Lp is what made it a masterpiece! well done!

Hi Tony, this is a very nice version. Your vocals and harmonies are excellent. This song by John, 'I Will', by Paul and 'Colours', by Donovan are three songs that I learnt to play when I was first started out on guitar. Great stuff Tony.

Blown away by this cover! Very impressive vocals & guitar work. There is quite a melancholy story behind this song and you've captured the emotion perfectly. Brilliant stuff.
