It's hard to believe that it's been (over) 25
years since GetbacK band ruled the rock and roll world! OK, maybe not your world...but a darn big chunk of ours!
There were a lot of talented musicians who joined various editions of the
GetbacK band throughout the 80's and 90's, as well as the other bands which preceded it in the 60's and 70's.
I
take this opportunity to publicly thank them all most sincerely for their
talent and comradery. It was a blast to play with you all in
The Aztecs, The Executives, and
the GetbacK band!

Back in 1989
GetbacK went into the recording studio. The intention was just to cut a couple of demo's to be used as a marketing
tool. It was so much fun that we did it again two years later in 1991.
Before we knew it, we had enough tunes for a small "album". And so,
Cover
Me! was born.
Back then, things were recorded on digital audio tape
(DAT) which was then used to make tape cassettes! (ask your
grandfather about those)
Cover Me was therefore distributed on a very limited basis. The master sat in a drawer for the last
15-20 years. |
We
now live in the Internet age where all things are possible and the DAT contents
have finally been transferred to CD-ROM! Thanks to cheap
MP3 technology these old tunes can live again, right here in your computer.
Published to the peoples at last!
Click on Album in the menu bar at the top of the page I hope you enjoy it.
