Great luck having been born in the US 71 years ago where soldiers made it possible for me to be a musician! The cd above is music from 1975, 1,2,4,5,6,7+16 composed by yours truly. Available now!
SHIRLEY, SCHWAB and SANTA MARIA
From 1975: I finally restored these tunes a good as I am ever likely to be able to, so here they are, plus one song that at this moment I do not have a recording of us doing, but did myself as a Johnny Smith duet.
For those of you who are still alive now 50 years later, I hope you enjoy this release.
Recorded mostly at Trackmaster Audio (and one in Jerry Keating's basement!) this is the audio that was chosen to debut Trackmaster's new studio to industry pro's and NOT the new TALAS record.
Our 2 bands were the only ones invited to this drinks and food soiree and boy was Billy Sheehan and the the other 2 PISSED OFF...Sheehan got the last laugh though 'cuz he became famous while Chick Corea's dick biz partner denied the recording /publishing deal Chick offered me. Oh well.
All I know is, we were fucking GREAT and you all missed a monster band. ~ Pauly 03/23/2025
A Note to the Visitor:
Hope you like my site. If you see artwork (pencil, paint, stipple, photoshop paintings) then I did them. I do NOT use A.I. to create artwork, (or music) and you have to actually SAY THAT these days - I was always such an amazing pencil artist that even 40+ years ago, people were unsure if they were photos or - what?
If you hear something, I wrote it or played it unless otherwise noted. At the bottom of the Music Catalogue page, there is a list of the 20+ people who have been on my tunes over 45 years, but if they are not on there, then I wrote, arranged, performed, engineered / mastered it. Yes, I'm proud - who else speaks for me?

TRUTH
Not funny - but FUNNY!!
Wish I had made this!!
This is why I don't perform live anymore, in case you cared.
NEW - THE STUPID HUMANS SECTION!!
...and now, A Testament to TRULY Monumental Stupidity !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Since this is MY website, and I PAY for it and I MAINTAIN it, then allow me to focus on this mook Paul Jones. This is the kind of BLATANT STUPIDITY that makes people turn away from something new - in this case, 2 of the greatest songwriters ever. The Beatles went on to generate TRILLIONS of dollars in many businesses besides the "music" business - to be fair, how could he have know they would - that's NOT the point (although the screeching girls at the airport / venues and Ed Sullivan's display of them MIGHT have been a SUBTLE CLUE...!!)
No the point would be that he DISMISSED THEM OUT OF HAND - and HE INSULTED THE 3 STOOGES AS WELL. This guy never had any clue what was good or bad (just like the numerous record labels that turned down The Beatles and myself as well) and by giving his BULLSHIT USELESS opinion he diverted people from the FUN of what the Beatles were. Him and DICK JAMES - another idiot in history.
For all Beatle fans everywhere, Mr. STOOPID Jones ...
F you and everyone like you. ~ Paul Santa Maria, 2.10.2023
* UPDATE 10.23.2023: EFF YOU AGAIN, YOU MOOK, on behalf of songwriters everywhere ... And I'm sorry your name was PAUL.
UPDATE 4.26.24: EFF YOU AGAIN. 3.02.25 - EFF YOU AGAIN.
