Tony, your rendition is a truly a classic presentation. Bravo. I especially loved the sound of that real orchestra playing behind you. No commerical midi backing sequence (including Tune-1000) or auto accomp mode keyboard (for that matter) comes close to sounding like this.

As a life long San Francisco Bay Area resident, I'm especially moved that both Tony and theWolf (Heikki) decided to record & share their personal rendition of my city's official song.

As I drove across the Golen Gate Bridge today listening to both Tony & Heikki's SF song renditions on my iPod, I have to admit to having to wipe away a few tears from my eyes, as I took in the majestic Pacific Ocean on my right, and the picturesque SF skyline on my left. I feel both proud and fortunate to be living in one of most beautiful places on earth, and invite everyone to visit here one day. Many thanks again to both Tony & Heikki for your music. - Scott

Tony:

Maybe you can clear up a rumor I heard years ago. I've heard it said that the reason there is so many Tony's in the states ,is because 100 years ago when the young men were sent by ship to the states from Italy, they had a stamp that they stamped each one's forehead with and it said

Ready.........TO: N.Y. and the dumb immagration people wrote this as their name.. ......Pose


JUST Joking...

Pose....You may have meant it as a good humored joke but in reallity, it was the truth...many people that came from Italy way back then had it that way T.O.N.Y. meaning to NY for the non English speaking Italian men...the slang "WOP" as referred to Italians was when the imigrants that didn't have papers in order were placed a sticker on their chest W.O.P. meaning
"WITH OUT PAPERS" this is where the slang WOP came from.....a litle bit of history, or better know as "NICKEL KNOWLEDGE" hehehe
