      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.

No One Knows (Video)

 

There was this guy called Stefano. Haphazardly he stumbled across that secret backdoor swing party somewhere in Downtown Chicago (but this never took place - the gatekeeper now sleeps with the fishes...). Accidentally he brought a camera along with him. By sheer chance he pressed the record button while the objective had it's stochastical sight on a very special live performance of the Billy Rubin Trio and the beloved Patentochter of the Don, Lady S.

He now happens to be a VERY close friend to the family.
