Radio
RADIO, the second album from Mario Resto is now available. It is a much sharper edged album than his first release "Scenes From The Reality" which was a more keyboard composed collection. Going back to his guitar roots to compose RADIO, Mario again shines with his skillful songwriting, arranging and storytelling. This new release features the extraordinary harmonica talents of Peter "Madcat" Ruth, and Oscar-Award Winner Luis Resto on piano and synthesizer. Coming naturally from his many years post-scoring for T.V., radio and film, this production is much more varied in mood, dynamic and music styles. Far from predictable, RADIO takes you on a journey. As if turning the radio dial, Mario offers you a landscape of musical styles. From the hard-hitting opening tune "All These Things" to the romantic power ballad "Special" or introspective instrumental "What You Said", he never lets you slip away. This album shows beyond a shadow of a doubt the musical growth and maturity of this veteran musician, performer, producer and composer. The newest release from Mario Resto and the "2MCD Project" is a musical must. Sit back and turn up the "RADIO".

May it never stop. * my musical brother Dave Tatro - for all your time, motivation, creative input, support, and incredibly tolerant family. Thanks Edie!!! Hope nobody's hearing has been effected. * Peter "Madcat" Ruth - for coming over and absolutely "tearing it up". What a cool afternoon. * Claire Derks - for your wonderful voice and helping me get "real" female vocals in the mix. * Steve King - for lending me your mandolin. I have got to get one of those! * My son Dominic - for being my drum recording engineer. You have no idea how much I enjoy your help. Love You. * Pam W.

This record is dedicated to my family and friends (of course the G.C.C.) and to the memory of my father Andres Resto-Soto and friend Denny Burton.

 

If I could, I would move a mountain for you

With the slight of my hand, make the problems go away

But I'm only one man, with one plan

That's to see your life

In a world where no-one cares about Brother to Brother

I'm a lonely man walking in a desert of hate

But you're the arms that I run to

When all of the world has run me through

And I need some Life

'cause You've got a smile that lights up the night

And touches my soul

Makes me feel completely Alive .....

And it's for you

That I am

I'm only one.....I'll give my life

"Alive" : dedicated to Annalise and Dominic

The "2MCD Project" is the live vehicle for my music. Dave and I had been getting together and playing the tunes in a 2 man fashion. Wanting to have more of the full band feel around us I began laying down backing tracks for us to perform with. It's an easily portable and hard hitting show. Thank you for spending time listening to RADIO.
