Subject: The Older I Get the Better I Was From: BSeedkratz Date: 05 Oct 98 - 01:35 PM Art, Amazon.com still doesn't have your CD. So many great things were said about it in the earlier thread about it I can't wait. I can't find that prior thread to check where you said it was available--can you update me (us) on that? --seed |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Roger Himler Date: 16 Sep 98 - 07:12 PM Anne, You might be thinking of Steve's song, The Old Trail. It's in the DT CLICK HERE. Roger in Baltimore |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Anne Date: 16 Sep 98 - 02:19 AM Art: I'm leaving for Winfield tomorrow morning (WEDS) from Connecticut. I can't wait to pick up your CD. Also, I'm going to find the Chisholm Trail that you mentioned in a previous thread. I think Steve Gillette has a song (could just be stage banter) about takin the byways instead of the highways. And don't worry ART, you will be at Winfield. Anne |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Art Thieme Date: 15 Sep 98 - 11:55 PM Johnny, Please accept my humble thanks. A bunch of the CDs will be at Winfield this weekend---thanks to the amazing Mr. Bob Redford. (As I've said here a few times, I sure do miss being there---and the grand drive down through the Flint Hills...) |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Rockaday Johnny Date: 15 Sep 98 - 09:51 PM The new CD is wonderful, a great choice of songs made even better by a great set notes that shed light on the songs -Craig Johnson's North Country Tragedy is a wonderful poke at traditional ballads and contemporary life --Great pickin' on guitar and banjo throughout -best $3.00 guitar I've ever heard. All you mudcatter's should get this for yourself and to send to all your singer/songwriter friends to tell 'em what folk really is --the only bad thing is the discography --it says "live at Winfield" is out of print --folks this is a great cassette - if you see it get it to...Nothing recorded at the "Spot" tho....... |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Alice Date: 15 Sep 98 - 03:07 PM Hi Art,
It was neat to be able to download an audio clip and hear your voice singing. I look forward to the day when we can share a real song circle around the world on the internet, rather than our wishful 'fantasy' song circle that we carried on last year on the Mudcat. I would love to hear the voices of the other Mudcatters I have met in this cyber gathering. alice in montana |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Barbara Date: 15 Sep 98 - 12:11 PM Hey Art, congrats on getting the CD out! The tune to Master of the Sheepfold is very similar to the one I know, and I learned it with just a little black dialect in it (Massah; brung in; gloomin' nightpath) from my college friend Charlie Ipcar who lived on an island near Bath, Maine, (Robinhood Cove) and I'll bet money he learned it from Bill Bonyun. Charlie actually sang highland shepherd, not hireling,which is what happens when you have an oral tradition. Blessings, Barbara |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Dale Rose Date: 15 Sep 98 - 03:40 AM No, it's mentioned on the Waterbug website that Joe pointed to. There are sound clips and recording info for In & Around Nashville, North County Tragedy, and Master of the Sheepfold. (one of my very favorite songs) You're quite right, it just would not work in dialect. |
Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Art Thieme Date: 15 Sep 98 - 02:15 AM Joe & Dale, thanks for the nice comments. I truly appreciate 'em. I do hope Max doesn't mind this blatant commercial ploy. Waterbug Records is run by Andrew Calhoun & Kat Eggleston in Chicago--fine people--incandescent singers---at least Kat is that ;-)---and both are wondrous songwriters and poets. Andrew is doing ALL distribution from there. That way I don't have to take mailorders to the post office as I'm rather limited physically now. Dale, do you have it already? How did you know about that track being recorded in St.Louis? Again, THANKS ! Art

Subject: RE: Art Thieme's New CD From: Dale Rose Date: 15 Sep 98 - 01:23 AM Hey, Art! Sorry I was not there at the Focal Point on June 20, 1981, to hear you do In & Around Nashville and no telling what other nifty things. Funny, but I don't remember now what might have been so important that I missed it. I have been to a good many shows at the Focal Point, and may well go to see the Gordons and the Buckhannons on September 25, while I am up in Illinois. |
Subject: Thieme Thong.... From: Joe Offer Date: 14 Sep 98 - 03:25 PM Click hereAs far as I can see, the CD isn't yet available on any of the "Support the Mudcat" distributors. It's listed on Amazon, but as "not yet available." I can't wait. I'm going to order mine from Waterbug today. I wanna be the first kid on my block to have an Art Thieme CD. -Joe Offer- |
