Album Notes

Originals is a refreshing kick back to the story telling musical styles of piano men that come before Paul Marturano like Elton John, Billy Joel, and maybe even a slight touch of Jerry Lee Lewis and Ben Folds.

Originals contains 8 original Paul Marturano piano based rock and ballad tracks performed by Paul Marturano and a host of other musicians.

Originals touches on unique themes that are common to all of us and will remind you of your own life experiences. The CD is full of tunes that will have you grooving in your car, slow dancing with a significant other, laughing with the bar crowd, screaming your head off at the hockey game, and maybe even getting a bit emotionally choked up here and there.

Each song on Originals is a way of communicating a thought, story or theme through voice and instrumentation as opposed to today's industry standard of a techno beat with some one screaming nonsensical gibberish over the top of it.

The CD was recorded in Nashville, TN and in Conshocken, PA with 4 tracks (I Drink, Broad Street, Every Time It Rains & Something Real) produced by Grammy Award Winning Producer, Ted Greenberg.

Paul Marturano, had the pleasure of performing a solo version of the very first track on Originals, (Other Piece of You), live at the Iridium Jazz club in New York City for the legendary LES PAUL. To which LES PAUL replied, You have some talent there. You remind me of another Paul who was in here last week to see me. LES PAUL was referring to PAUL McCARTNEY, who had visited the week before.

Paul Marturano began playing piano at age 3 and has been writing songs since age 10. He has received extensive radio airplay on Y-100-FM, 104.5-FM, 88.5-FM, 89.1-FM in the Philadelphia Area.
