His new album will be out this Autumn on Joe Bonamassa\u2019s independent label KTBA Records but we\u2019re trusting that \u201cI\u2019ve Got To Get To You\u201d will scratch your Dion itch in the interim.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve Got To Get To You\u201d was written by Dion with long-time collaborator Mike Aquilina. As far as the song\u2019s lyric is concerned, Dion remarked, \u201cI tried to get every form of transportation imaginable in this one\u201d and that\u2019s certainly the case with mention of elevators and Concord jets among many means of transport referenced.<\/p>\n

He notes, \u201cBoz Scaggs is one of my wife Susan’s favourite singers, and I’m right there with her. For decades I\u2019ve wanted to record a song with this guy. There’s no mistaking his voice for anyone else’s \u2014 and here it is, as pure and clear as ever, on \u2018I\u2019ve Got To Get To You.\u2019<\/p>\n

I was inspired to write this song after a conversation with Roy Orbison more than fifty years ago. Now that Boz has sung on it, it’s finally done. It doesn’t get any better than this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Boz Scaggs was equivalently effusive. He remarked, \u201cDion is one of my favourite singers. With a single phrase he can open up a wide range of musical experiences. His early rock foundation and doo-wop sets me free. His style — in words and music — is timeless and beautiful to me.\u201d Boz went on to call \u2018I\u2019ve Got To Get To You\u2019 \u201ca fun track\u2026 rockin’ guitars and Dion\u2019s lyrics are wild. Our voices are a natural blend.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dion sums up his recent creative efforts most succinctly, \u201cTo make music with friends, and make friends through music: I can\u2019t imagine a better life than this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Listen to new track \u201cI\u2019ve Got To Get To You\u201d featuring Boz Scaggs and Joe and Mike Menza.<\/p>\n
