It's Not the Same was not the same!
Our song, "It's Not the Same" was recorded on multi-track in the basement of our community house at 505 Pleasant circa 1985. This salvaged work is what you hear on our sites now. But, just as a point of ironic interest, that song was NOT the same in years after that recording! After the chorus coming out of the bridge, there is a lead-in to Greg's rock-and-roll style lead. On the recording Tony and Dave continue to play straight, blending, rhythmic backing. But soon after this time and for the rest of our concert days that part changed into your classic sharp staccato transition, with drums & bass playing like "ONE (x-x-x), ONE (x-x-x), ONE x THREE x, ONE TWO THREE FOUR like Chuck Berry in "Johnny B. Goode" . And after I said "Get back, Jo", I used to also say "Johnny B Goode" and "Go home!", and other improvised classic rock n roll references. Ok, so, go ahead and listen to this, but, just remember: it's not the same!!
