Hi All, We were inspired last year by David Snyder’s great song “Eduardo’s Bodega”. David's backstory & original version is here. I told David that we would love to do a cover. This is our version complete with a video that we had a bit of fun with. You’ll see Joliz and me in the doorway of Eduardo’s, and an advertisement poster for David appearing “live” somewhere in town.  This one is for you David! SoundCloud: Eduardo's BodegaCopyright © 2025 by David Snyder, ASCAP/Day of Faith Records Eduardo's Bodega The lights are out No more cigarette packs What's that all about No more Nico in Chelsea Or the ghost of Lou Reed Eduardo's Bodega Used to have what I need Now I look in the dumpster I look on the street No more butts in my pocket So I look at my feet Could go to the east side Take the uptown train Maybe jump a few turnstiles Not stay in the rain Maybe take Jane Street But I don't know why Go over to Carmine With the mafia guys Just don't go down Bank Street At this time of night It's too dark on Barrow Since they shut out the lights Eduardo's Bodega I'm saying goodbye But I can't find a taxi Yeah I can't catch a ride Can't call an Uber Cause I'm blacklisted now Stuck here on Gay Street Guess I can't leave town And Eduardo's Bodega Man they're tearing it down One more line in my song now Guess I'll see you around One more line in my song now Guess I'll see you around BIAB Tracks: 0700: Bass, Electric, Pop 3912: Guitar, Nylon, Rhythm 2364: Synth, ElectroFlutes Loop: Chillout/Chillout_145 RealDrums: Mallets and Cajon Other Notes: Bob Mic: Logitech Blue Yeti Bob Vocals: Logic Pro Bob Acoustic Guitar: Gibson LG-2 Bob Electric Guitar: Collings Ladybird Joliz Mic: Audio Technica AT2020USB+ Joliz Vocals: GarageBand Waves Vocal Rider: All Vocals Pre-Production: Track Editing GarageBand & Logic Pro Izotope Nectar 3 Elements for Vocals Izotope Plasma for Instrument Tracks Processing Izotope Vinyl Processing Final Track Mix & Master: Logic Pro & Izotope Ozone 11 Video: Adobe Firefly, iMovie & Final Cut Pro As always - thanks for listening!

Ha! Awesomeness indeed.
Love David's version, but the two of you have really grabbed it, pulled it close and made it your own.
Love everything about this. Just everything.
Watched the excellent video but had to go straight to SoundCloud so I could register my "like" there, too.
Outstanding craftsmanship by all.

Brilliant song by David! And a brilliant performance from you two.
Enjoyed the video, nice seeing you and Joliz in the doorway, and the poster of David up on the wall.

A natural for you to do this one, almost sounds like a BD write. Liked the simple but oh so effective video, and the main vocal was perfect. Great job, Bob!

Very nicely done.
I like to see folks here covering the songs of other folks here.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

AH, this is so... amazing, wonderful, and a fine tribute from the song writing machine to the man in the machine. Love this song. You and Joliz are a very talented duo.
