Passion Play (Joni Mitchell) Kathy Geary, voice and guitar, at the Western Jan 13, 2017
"Woodstock" (Joni Mitchell) Kathy Geary, voice and guitar, at the Western Jan 13, 2017
This song was written by Steve Chinske in New York City in 1990. I performed it at the Speakeasy on MacDougal St in the Village on May 30, 1990. There's a lot of tape hiss but it's the only recording made. And it also speeds up and down a little... Lovely song!

ROAD TO HEAVEN (Ron English / Kathy Geary)
Kathy Geary - vocals, piano
Produced by Kathy Geary & Ron English
recorded at Night Owl Studios, NYC 2001
This is the last piece I worked on with Ron English, after a series of collaborations for three different projects, from English 101, Popaganda and Revelations Book II. Ron wrote the lyrics for this song as a tribute and personal message to his long time friend Daniel Johnston. It mentions some of the icons and images that appear in Daniel's own songs. When I composed this song I was thinking about George Harrison's "Blue Jay Way". The crowd sounds were Ron's idea, he called them the "New Situationist Choir".

Bleecker St. Reality Band "Fourth of July, 1993"
My friend and business partner David Sokol and I formed a band in the early 1990's named "Bleecker St Reality Band". We both lived in the same building on Bleecker St down in the West Village in NYC and we were partners in Euphoria Studios, a music rehearsal studio that is still running strong to this day. We met our bassist Dan Martin, a gifted singer songwriter with Cuban heritage, and together we placed an ad in the Village Voice looking for a lead guitarist. We found Kevin Giordano and made our first recordings within two weeks of meeting him, after maybe two or three rehearsals we produced "Fourth Of July", which was the actual recording date. Dan Martin's girlfriend Linda Rabiet made a video of the session.
We recorded covers. I had been a huge fan of Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks and we did two of his songs.
Reelin' Down (Dan Hicks)
Caught in the Rain (Dan Hicks)

True Blue Lou (Robin, Coslow, Whiting)
