Hi, This is Ron Gletherow introducing you to my good friend Tom Orecchio. I will be "caretaking" Tom's site, due to his ill health. Tom suffered a stroke last year, leaving him partially paralysed and almost totally blind. That's a pretty hard blow to take for a 43 year old family man, but Tom has the courage to carry on, "With A Little Help From My Friends", and also the devotion of his loving wife, Chris. Tom and I have been friends since 1998, when I met him at a Jim Croce fan gathering that he organized. I now help Tom to run the Jim Croce Tribute Page at www.jimcrocefans.com. Some time ago, Tom sent me a rough "Real Audio" file of a song he'd written called "Who Knew". I was knocked out by the song, and it appears as the acoustic version on Tom's music page (I've added a little piano and harmony vocal). Recently, another tape came into our possession, of some of Tom's other compositions, recorded by himself, and VERY ably assisted by his friends, themselves great musicians:- Frank Rokob - Lead Guitar Dave Kondas - Lead Guitar Anthony Nittoli - Bass / Keyboards Chris McIntosh - Tenor Sax / Flute Sit back and enjoy some great music by Tom Orecchio and his friends. I know you'll be as impressed as I was.

Story behind the song
Excellent guitar solo on this one by Dave Kondas
Lyrics
(Music & Lyrics by Tom Orecchio) Lately I feel that I’m caught in a world full of doubt and misunderstanding Today I realized you’re gone, ‘cos this old heart of mine is too damned demanding I tried to love you but you pushed me away Was it something I did, or I didn’t say? So far away I can remember, seems like yesterday, when I held your hand in mine Whatever happened to the you and me that could stand the test of time? How did it start? Why did it end? It’s the same old answer again and again So far away
