No One Knows
A song featuring the vaudevillean ragtime extravagances
of the Billy Rubin Trio, tastefully rounded by Meloni’s
Hawaiian electric steel guitar and Meloni’s (the other one)
carefully placed whistles. The bass solo melody is a genuine
invention of Mr. Billy Rubin himself. |
Closer
Lady S. and Mr. Billy Rubin himself will sing us a
charming lovesong about hopes and desires, happily accelerated to a
fast swing tune, showcasing Meloni’s (the other one) virtuosity
and intuition on drums. Meloni (not the other one), again on
Hawaiian guitar, is quotating a marvelous melody from the early
Twenties, and also contributing same rapid banjo runs.

Fuck Forever
Just a slow cakewalk with a beat, featuring an
extraordinary fabulous Lady S. taking us to the deepest secrets of
her soul. Remarkable is the carefully assembled melody executed by
Meloni on the for this particular occasion constructed Melonium© -
for the first and supposedly last time ever in recording history.
|
Love Will Tear Us Apart
Lady S.’s wonderful singing and sighing will take us
through this beautiful ballad, clearly underlined by Meloni’s dry
and fluent electric jazz guitar statements. Mr. Billy Rubin himself
and Meloni (the other one) stay remarkably quiet throughout this
song.

Are
You Gonna Be My Man
Another brilliant arrangement by the Billy Rubin Trio,
permanently switching from bizarre harmonical oddities to
Ellingtonian elegance and vice versa, resting only for a few bluesy
moments of contemplation. Meloni takes one of his legendary double
solos on the grand piano and the baritone ukulele at the same time. |
