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
Written in 1985 for my daughter Tara's first Christmas and updated for my 2nd daughter Bethany. Seems like yesterday to me! It is all accoustic as that is the way I played back then. All these years later (2011) this song brings a lot of memories to me. And without question the greatest accomplishment of my life has been these two wonderful girls who are now young ladies. And I am blessed to have them in my life.
Lyrics
Christmas Time Again Words/Music Tony DeLecce 1985 It?s Christmas time again, It?s Tara?s time of Year When little girls and little boys Wait for Santa to appear And they hope in their hearts He?ll be kind to them Because they?ve tried to be good It?s not easy to be good As the years go by Even though we know we should It?s easy to be nice As the holidays draw near But the Christmas spirit is gone When the new year moves on. So open your hearts And let Christmas in And keep it all year through It?s not asking too much to keep in touch With the little child inside of you It?s Christmas time again, It?s Bethany?s time of Year When little girls and little boys Wait for Santa to appear And they hope in their hearts He will be kind to them Because they?ve tried to be good It?s not easy to be good As the years go by Even though we know we should

This song brings back some very good memories for me and hard to believe where things are after all these years. Tara is now 28 and and Bethany 25. Merry Christmas girls.

Great song with a purpose. Well written Tony. Good to see your big on Christmas. Very touching Tony this song. As an aside, yes the Occupy movement your right seems to be a chicken running around with no head. But this is a movement that is found across the world. Not just in Wall Street or Seattle. And I see a lot of revolution people standing up to governments in many other places. I think your also right about where the movement should head. But just cause the press in both Canada and the United States haven't paid it much heed don't underestimate it. Louis the XVI did the same thing, and look what happened to him. In the end the people will speak or not on these issues. I cant see Corporations as people, They cant be, yet somehow it is so. When corruption is so gol dang open like that change is a going to come.....or a lot of people going to be in chains.
