about
Bazar, from longtime cabaret rockers Lorenzo's Music, is a surreal sonic safari that finds leaders Tom Ray and Mark Whitcomb fiddling about with both discombobulated pop tunes and slew-footed R&B-inflected rockers that owe a lot to everyone's favorite ash can saint, Tom Waits. The CD's bass-heavy lead cut, "Old Old Story," has a bittersweet swagger about it that ought to appeal to both Waits fans and the legions of folks who were thrilled by Leonard Cohen's mid-life move into contemporary cabaret fare.
The same is true of the louche rumba "All's Good That Ends Well." As always, Lorenzo's stylish, gravel-voiced singer Ray is in complete control of his striking pipes as he dips and sways through a fractured musical landscape peopled by beautiful losers, tempestuous lovers and twisted back-alley creatures who look good even when they're falling hard.
The CD's packaging may be simple, but don't let that fool you. These guys are one of the most sophisticated outfits in the area. If they were based on one of the coasts, they'd be penning soundtracks.

Old Old story
What did you have in mind
Should, should I think of everything
well I'm already blind
and that's, that's how I do things
Old, Old story and the same old song
Making the same mistakes
why do i even try
can't put my finger on it, now
and yet, and yet here I go again
Old, Old story and the same old song
all of the weeks I spent
fighting and socializing
and just, and just where did it get me
older, but not much wiser
Old, Old story and the same old song
What did you have in mind
Should I think of everything
Old, Old story and the same old song - Track Name: Inamorata
-
Inamorata
Found and put it down
I'm tired enough
Off the top of your head
Take 'em by the shore
Bind up your easy mark
What's it gonna fix
Mistimed your play
The random hour
Just put your name on the thing
Used to understand
It's sorry we're shut
not sorry we're closed
tonight is up or so I wanna tell you
my whisper wire companion schill
Chorus
This time around
with your chin against the curb
you nail your colors to the pole
this time around, you can't see behind
no matter, you gotta, wanna,
Inamorata
Did the song
carry it along
I turned it up
see where it shows
side by, side by
side by, side by
side by, side by
side by, side
Turn on the tap
go on with you
what ought'a be done
what ought to be
Chorus 2x - Track Name: Indian Summer
-
Indian Summers
are always awkward, I think
warm orange air
cold apartments
open windows and cars
sharing a city and basement floors
don't waste time in case we think twice
don't waste time, in case we think twice
Tore my shirt
living a lie
shed my guilt til there was no regret
messed up a situation by not making it happen
together on Sundays
west coast states are a dream
don't waste time in case we think twice
Indian Summers
are always awkward, I think
warm orange air
cold apartments
open windows and cars
together on Sundays
west coast states are a dream
don't waste time in case we think twice - Track Name: Downtown
-
Downtown
We been runnin' round goin' downtown

Something got visual KO
I dig it fast

and then a who can not feel the same?
chasin' tail away we go
and do you want say come

long sent home from Boston

We been runnin' round goin' downtown

It ends already

We been runnin' round goin' downtown
downtown downtown - Track Name: All's Good That Ends Well
-
All's good that ends well
Got to see was I in love
and what her hands held on
that it would only hold so long
but i was all wrong

does it want of its own
does it want of its own
oh no, no, no, no
don't, done

why can't you show me how you did that
Note well I'm steady i do that
don't, done, done
thrill is gone
why did you do that
went into blind
and do the time
Soon, and what would you do
hand it off
to what your hands held on
ran it in
when did it run
did it run
oh no, no
gone, where did it go
was it, don't know
was it one of it's own
was it one of it's own
oh no, oh no, no
I know now
Oh, unreliable
Oh, irresponsible
Oh, undeniable
Oh yeah

why can't you show me how you did that
Note well I'm steady i do that

went into blind
and do the time
Oh, unreliable
Oh, irresponsible

Note well I'm steady i do that

went into blind
and do the time - Track Name: Oh Oh Oh
-
Oh,oh,oh
Comin' loose, not holding back
It's all everyone has left
Letting it out not letting it down
at least tonight
hit it high for something more
Lose it all to lose everything
give it all for free, though i already did
tell me what happened
it could be better
Oh, oh, oh
hit it high for something more
Lose it all to lose everything
give it all for free, though i already did
tell me what happened
it could be better
Oh, oh, oh
come in 2 minutes, I've lost
pearly whites and formal grab
it's been open its been had
It leaves you blind
hit it high for something more
Lose it all to lose everything
give it all for free, though i already did
tell me what happened
it could be better
Oh, oh, oh - Track Name: Voomp Boomp
-
Voomp-boop
Outside and light
got four, no more
so bide in time
standing sideways
threadbare, dirty, and faded
wax on outdated
folded metal shown through
sullied + simple too
voomp-boop
How two can't do
bright chord, no more
It's fine it's mine
shifting simply
joyride, cuts and I'm taken
Hold on maintain it
Like found raided its true
shaped it and played it too
voomp-boop
ah one ah, ah two ah, ah three ah, ah four ah, ah five ah
six seminal
one is short, one is low
genuine and in a row
folded metal shows through
sorted + simple too
voomp-boop - Track Name: After All That's Happened
-
after all
It's now forever and how
there's no turning back now
and which one of us won?
or did we both lose
tattered in our new clothes, uh huh
and keeping our space
But we are still fond, after all
thats happened
I drink and swear it's shame
still you care about me,
how could you put up with it
when i aint worth shit
I'm always gone all the time
But remembered to lock the doors
But we are still fond, after all
thats happened
I know sometimes I tick you off
I should really think before i talk
just take my word it was just a joke
you know I'll never leave you dear,
Because all of my stuff is here
I come home, cuz I know you're there
asleep in our bed
and it will go on that way
after all that's happened
cuz we are still fond,
after all that's happened
cuz we are still fond,
after all that's happened - Track Name: Fervor
-
Fervor
Do you get,
feature of what you sow
fervor a love affair
spec to a stopping point
don't, don't, don't, don't
nest a weir
fervor a love affair
It's always good, it's good to find other ways
Chorus
Wait for a wheel, will he roll-o
time to re-learn, same as yours
Talk to them, come to hand
will he roll-o
But at what cost, best at first
go, but i go
find a wire as i go
day before another day
it's always good, good to find better ways
Chorus
Called a little
a little calm, called away
you hold and it's over
fervor a love affair
Chorus 2X - Track Name: It Could Be You
-
It could be you
Chorus
It could be you
It could be me
it could be everything we see
given the day, given the time, given the moment
Some of it comes
consequence flows
keep your legs on
iron bound, turn to spurn
Could you be, in a world
But not of any world
Could you stand in the center
of a space and beware
Chorus
Some of it comes
consequence flows
keep your legs on
iron bound, turn to spurn
could you be
anything, anywhere
up above
down below
would you stand
would you think on the zone?
And the morning could be yours
and the dog could be ours
and the night we could give it away
Chorus - Track Name: Feed The One
-
Feed The One
Come unglued someway
come on calm, as to convey,
even fine, ever fair
wait and then they'll see
then they'll find
then they'll know.
then they'll see
then they'll find
then they'll know.
And to feed the one, again.
to feed the one, again.
Down letter, phone rang
Kinda got a roll a vote of no
found under pressure
gotta go, gotta go.
then they'll see
then they'll find
then they'll know.
then they'll see
then they'll find
then they'll know.
And to feed the one, again.
to feed the one, again.
