wizard of oz jazz
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
A telling of the Wizard of OZ from Dorothys view. An ironic twist is that witches and wizards exist on both sides of the rainbow.
Lyrics
Witches and Wizards Words/Music Tony DeLecce July 2025 I met a girl named Dorothy Gail C7, C79, D7 G7 She told me a story a real tall tale She said it happened a long time ago VERSE2 How she got there I will let you know A Kansas twister took her away from home to the land of Oz, where anything goes CHorus Where Witches and wizards live side by side B7, A7, Dm, G7 and why oh why oh why can't I A7, Dm, G VERSE3 The house fell on the wicked witch of the East Dorothy opened the door and walked outside to colors and flowers she was completely mesmerized VERSE4 She looked around and wondered whats in store She knew that she wasnt in Kansas anymore Maybe she was in heaven or was this a dream CHorus Where Witches and wizards live side by side and why oh why oh why can't I BRIDGE I know the story sounds strange and a little bit insane Bm, Em, A7, D if you close your eyes you will start to believe Bm, Em, Cm, C, G MIDDLE LEAD VERSE4 Dorothy followed the Yellow Brick Road She met a scarecrow scaring crows He seemed like someone that she used to know VERSE5 Dorothy had a long way to go As she followed the Yellow brick Road With a tin Man and Lion to follow the Scarecrow CHorus Where Witches and wizards live side by side and why oh why oh why can't I VERSE6 Dorothy reaches the wizard of oz He tries to help her but he gets lost Glinda appears and says please listen to me VERSE7 The Ruby slippers can help you leave close your eyes and count to 3 And say that there is no place like home CHorus Where Witches and wizards live side by side B7, A7, Dm, G and why oh why oh why can't I A7, Dm, G
