Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: jlp Date: 10 May 01 - 06:48 PM just a question: my mother just put me on to mudcatters. It is an interesting site. I have published a few CD's aon a cery small scale. Some of these have been recorded on location in West Africa and little Tibet. My goal is that the musicians, often living in poverty, can benefit from the sales of me CD's. Sometimes I play along on my flute. would it be interesting to have these CD's listed here? You can find more about them by going to my website: http://users.bart.nl/~jlpertz |
Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: Uncle Jaque Date: 11 May 01 - 12:17 PM Just last Saturday I experienced my first ever "professional" recording session, of which I intend to write in more detail as a seperate thread. For a 19th Century kinda guy it certainly was a mind-expanding, intense experience for which I was hardly prepared, and I think that many of you "Pros" to whom this is routine will find it amusing - kinda like "Festus goes to Nashville". What we apparantly ended up with was 16 (album length, they tell me) tracks of guitar, primitive flute (made it m'self) and Military Fife. Since the Technician (an MD who works with my Spouse weekdays and runs this studio in his spare time) had never seen a fife before (so as he knew what it was), he had me run a guitar track over a fife solo of "Battle Hymn". Was that ever weird!? The CD (I would classify it as a "demo" at this point, as it's a long way from perfection) is being "mastered" and whatever else they do with these things at this time and should be out in about a month. Unless it is a total embarrassment, I want to send a copy to those who have graciously sent me copies of their CDs (Susan in CA, I still owe ye an eval, don't I?) and hand out a few to friends & family who have been bugging me to record. This oughtta cure them of that fancy! The idea of a CD swap between Mudcatters rather appeals. If I do sell any I guess ten bucks is about the going (break-even?) rate for first-attempt "demo" CDs, isn't it? |
Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: hesperis Date: 11 May 01 - 08:36 PM jlp - sounds interesting. Here's your blue clicky: http://users.bart.nl/~jlpertz My mp3 CD is currently not available, and I am looking into how to reproduce the REAL CD (the one those mp3s came off of), and actually get them out to people. So, Springrise! will be available, hopefully soon. I will also be offering a compilation CD, some of my stuff, and some of Jande's. As soon as I figure out the one, they'll both be available. ~*hesperis*~ |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: Jim Krause Date: 07 Aug 01 - 12:32 PM I think I have probably made oblique references to my CD Going Up the Missouri: Songs & Dance Tunes from Old Fort Osage. You can find out all about it here atCD Baby.com.
I've been happy to play cuts from "Going Up the Missouri: Songs & Dance Tunes from Old Fort Osage" on my show. Jim Krause is a fine story-teller, who uses no "bells and whistles" to paint his pictures. The music is straightforward and engaging, with simple accompaniements that enhance the music. It's decidedly "UN-hyphenated" folk music. Rick Fielding Host, "Acoustic Workshop" CIUT fm. Toronto. Jim |
Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: Jim Krause Date: 07 Aug 01 - 12:44 PM PS So you really don't want to go about surfing the net looking up all this stuff, right? OK, here's the low-down, short and simple. Going Up the Missouri: Songs & Dance Tunes from Old Fort Osage is an anthology of folk songs, fiddle tunes and pop songs all dating from before 1820. If you go to rendezvous, if you are involved in living history, you'll like this record. Why? Because I recorded it using instruments common to the era, such as the wire strung 18th century Guittar. Want to know more about what that instrument sounds like? Maybe you'd enjoy listening to the CD. |

Subject: New Kathy Kallick CD - October 2001 From: BK Lick Date: 13 Aug 01 - 05:41 PM My Daughter Kathy has recorded a new album titled My Mother's Voice scheduled to be released October 1st on Copper Creek Records. It's a collection of standards that Kathy learned from her mom, Dodi Kallick. Kathy was joined in the studio by quite a few of her friends, many of them well known to Mudcatters. She writes in the liner notes: I was struck by how affected many of [them] were by singing and playing these often-familiar songs. They too had learned them from family members and early mentors, and some had forgotten what wonderful songs they are.A while back, Art Thieme remembered Dodi's singing Web of Birdsong, and Kathy thanks him in the liner notes for reminding her of it. Here's the track list: Kathy Kallick: lead vocals on all tracks, guitar on all tracks except The Tailor & the Mouse and Web Of Birdsong. All songs: Traditional, arranged by Kathy Kallick (Red Shirt Pub. Co./BMI), except as noted.

Subject: Mudcatter CD's - Barbara Shaw From: Barbara Shaw Date: 06 Nov 01 - 09:25 AM My band "ShoreGrass" recently self-produced our VERY FIRST CD entitled "In Connecticut." The CD is available for $15 through me by sending me a PM or note to B.Shaw@snet.net. We do a mix of bluegrass /folk /traditional /original songs, with guitar, banjo, bass, mandolin and fiddle. Here's the song list with brief liner notes: 1. Six Wild Roses (Norman Schell) 2:51 Norman was a bandmate of Frank's in the 70's folk/rock group "Clean Living." We wonder if he recognizes the song since we put the grass to it. 2. Lonely Tombs (Traditional) 3:40 We first heard this on a Hobart Smith album recommended by Sandy Paton, and thought we had come up with a fresh new arrangement. Then someone told us this is just how Ralph did it. But only Paul can sing this high. 3. Connecticut Waltz (Barbara Shaw) 2:41 We sat around many a jam playing the Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky and other state waltzes. After looking and not finding one for Connecticut, Barbara wrote this for her home state. Lyrics still need to be de-corned. 4. Man in the Middle (Tom Harley Campbell) 2:38 We've heard this in G major, and liked a slightly minor slant to it. It's also known as Three Men on a Mountain. 5. One More Miner (Barbara Shaw) 2:23 This is a (mostly) true story about Barbara's grandfather, who died when her father was 10. There were miners out West, too. 6. Last Old Shovel (Traditional) 3:00 The guys at Hank's Garage always request "that shovel song," so we had to include this. 7. Against the Tide (Barbara Shaw) 4:27 Our friend Tex asked if there were any songs in minor keys in bluegrass. In response, Barbara set out to write a bluegrass gospel tune in a minor key. It turned out to be not bluegrass, probably not gospel, but it's definitely minor. 8. Jordan (Traditional) 2:10 Louis makes his singing cameo on this old gospel number. 9. Sing Away the Sorries (Barbara Shaw) 2:35 The guys in Clean Living had a reunion once and surprised everyone by doing this on stage. Since we didn't record that evening, we included this one. 10. Keep on the Sunnyside (Traditional) 2:48 Just about every jam includes this at least once. The Carters inspire much of our music. 11. A Waltz For You (Frank & Barbara Shaw) 2:11 Frank originally wrote the first verse of this song to Barbara. She collaborated and wrote the second verse by paraphrasing a stanza from Thomas Gray's "Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard." Larry's classical training got us through the modulations. 12. Cajun Rock (Norman Schell) 3:14 Norman lived this song. 13. Old Man at the Mill (Traditional) 2:16 Bluegrassers know this as an old Dillard's tune, and folkies know it as "The Jolly Miller." 14. I Can't Go Home (Barbara Shaw) 3:37 This was written after the hardware store closed in the town of Branford. It reflects the bluegrass festival lifestyle, rolling down the road in a camper. 15. Tear My Stillhouse Down (Gillian Welch) 3:22 Gillian went to Berklee, where Jonathan is a student, so we like to support the place and it's graduates. Easy to do with such a great song. |

The Society's membership is in the thousands and is not confined to the Philadelphia area. To summarize, Mike Miller, the reviewer, has reviewed: Bluegrass, Barbershop, Gospel, Klezmer, Celtic, French, Puerto Rican and Russian. He has recommended eclectics, revivalists, revisionists and free thinkers. He hears a lot of children's songs, labor songs, protests and parodies. He prefers traditional songs but will reccomend a singer/songwriter if he/she really knocks his socks off.
Send CD and information to: Be sure to include information on purchasing the CD. Is it available in stores? Do you have a website? What is the price? FMI, e-mail Mike Miller, musicmic@rcn.com ~Susan |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: CRANKY YANKEE Date: 06 Jan 02 - 11:56 AM Jody Gibson "Spanning the Decades 1957-2001" Mostly Folk, some C&W. Contains commercial recordings on TETRA (Good Morning Captain, my one "hit") Good Morning Captain is simply my way of singing "Muleskinner Blues" It was only released in New England, NY, NJ and (maybe) Pennsylania. Sold 400,000+ 45's and 25,000 78's. (or 75,000 78's, depending on who is counting) I was a USAF T/Sgt Air Traffic Controller when I made all of my commercial recordings. I was chief controller at Suffolk County AFB, NY when Good Morning Captain was released. one of the reasons for it's (unexpected) success is that Alan Freed was my manager's father in law and it got a lot of play on the pop and Rock stations. This one was released in May 1957. almost immediately after it's release I was transferred to England. While I was stationed at RAF Bruntingthorpe I formed the first integrated C&W group to record for a major lable (Parlophone) Sir George Martin was head of A&R at Parlophone. All my Parlophone recordings are included in this CD. I was transferred to RAF Lakenheath in 1958. The flip side of Good Morning Captain was poorly produced with too much echo which made the singing sound sour. The echo from each note fed over to the notes on either side and prroduced a cacaphony. This "Dud", though recorded at a first class studio (Bell Sound) was released over my objections. It was entitled "21 years" but was a lousy re-write of Worried Man Blues. Jay Stump's arrangement and electric guitar background and my 5 string banjo lead and instrumental solo were, too good to just throw away. So, I made a composite using the instrumental break for background (twice) added an acoustic guitar rhythm throughout, and sang the traditional lyrics with this composite, (also harmony on the chorus) This bit of magic was accomplished at the Rose Island recording Co. studio (my attic) and is track #3 on the CD Similar technique was used for "San Antonio Rose", but, for a different reason. All I had of this excellent "Parlophone" recording was a tape that I'd sent to my parents. The first 16 bars had been accidentally erased. The instrumental break is 16 bars long, so, lead in and the first 16 bars of background were constructed from the instrumental break. I sang along with this background and sang harmony with myself on the middle 8 so the change in voice isn't too startling, and then let the original run itself out. This worked even better than "Worried Man" I can't find the exact spot where the pieces are "punched in" even though I know where they are. Oh! Yes, The original "flip side" of Good Morning Captain" is included (track 21) to show where the pieces of the composite came from. All instruments and all voices on the "Rose Island" tracks were done by me. This was a lot of fun. Only the best of this lot are on the CD. The others are (to put it simply) not quite up to standard. (realy lousy) Donna and I laughed a lot when I did these. On Paddy Lay Back, the "bunch of semi-sober sailors " in the chorus (deliberate) include imitations of Porky Pig, Capt Herb Spinney, Capt Barclay Warburton III, Popeye and Buggs Bunny. The tracks on this CD are: 1.Good Morning Captain (TETRA 1957) 2. Heave Away Johnny (Trad. Capstan Chantey) (Rose Island 2000) 3. Worried Man Blues (Trad. composite TETRA 1957-Rose Island2001) 4. Farewell to Tarwaithe (trad. Rose Island 2001) 5. Kissin' Time (Mann-Lowe) Parlophone 1959 6. Providence Waltz (Jon Campbell) Rose Island 2000 7. San Antonio Rose (Wills) composite Parlophone 1959 and Rose Island 2001 8. Foxwood Polka (Jon Campbell) Rose Island 2001 9. Man on My Trail (Loudin) Parlophone 1959 10.Company's Comin' (w/"The Muleskinners") Parlophone 195911. Hillbilly Fever (w/"The Muleskinners") Parlophone 1959 12. That's All (Merle Travis) recorded in the laundry room of AMQ 825A, RAF Lakenheath 1958 (AMQ-Airmen's Married Quarters) 13. So You Think You've Got Troubles (Marvin Rainwater) Parlophone, 1960 14.

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: musicmick Date: 19 Jan 02 - 01:51 AM What Susan says is what I say. I would like to add that I have received CDs from eight Mudcatters and I reviewed two in the January issue. I will be reviewing the others in the next couple of months. I'll be sending a copy of each column to Susan, who has offered to post it on Mudcat. The columns appear in Tune Up, a publication of the Philadelphia Folksong Society available, only, to its members. The readership is around ten thousand, all of whom have an interest in folk music and most of whom buy CDs. The PFS produces the Philadelphia Folk Festival, the oldest, most successful folk festival in the USA. The society also presents such diverse programs as the Odyssey, which sends folksingers into public schools, a series of concerts, house concerts, workshops, library programs, children's concerts and community services, just to name a few. I look forward to hearing more folk music CDs from Mudcatters. So far, there hasn't been an inappropriate one in the bunch. I love it when a plan works out. For those who didn't get the earlier thread, I prefer traditional music but I don't reject traditionally based originals, out of hand. I am narrow-minded but lovable. Best of all, I never write an unfavorable review. If I dont like a CD or, more likely, if I find the contents inappropriate for my column, I pretend I never heard it. A pan serves no one except the reviewer. The purpose of the column is to encourage and reccomend. I dont have enough space on the one page to waste on stroking my ego at the expense of the artist. I save my strokes for more appreciative areas of my body. So, if you think you'd like some publicity for your CD and, if you think it appropriate for my column, send it to me at the office.

We are planning how to include his reviews on a regular basis, and whether to run them each in a separate thread or to batch them here or anywhere-- I want to know what Joe Offer thinks and he hasn't waded in yet on that point. But the publication they appear in is actually a membership-only, printed & mailed publication of the Philadelphia Folksong Society. The draft ones we ran were for the February print publication so actually they ran here early and I think in future they should run AFTER the print version is published and distributed to the PFS membership. Unless Mike wants to say in his column, "as reviewed at the Mudcat Cafe," whcih seems a bit backwards to me! *G* ~Susan |
Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: Joe Offer Date: 07 Feb 02 - 06:28 PM Hi, Susan - I think I'd like to see reviews grouped together whenever possible, or in a thread already started to announce the release the CD. I'm afraid if we had a separate review thread for each CD, the review would stay up for a day and then disappear. A thread for reviews for the month or the quarter would be another idea. Be sure to put Review: in the title of the message posting a review. -Joe Offer- Note that this is a PermaThread on Mudcatter CD's. It might be better to continue the discussion here (click). |
Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: musicmick Date: 08 Feb 02 - 03:14 AM Hi Susan, it's Mike again. I reviewed two Mudcatters, Kendall Morse and Jody Gibson, for the February issue. Did you get the copy I emailed to you? If not, let me know, and I'll send it off again. If I have room, I'll add a mention of Bron Yale's CD. If I am full, it will have to wait until March. I'd like to cover two or three CDs each month. I do get submissions from other sources but I love what I'm getting from Mudcat. I just knew that there were still a few folksingers left. |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's From: musicmick Date: 31 Jul 02 - 11:55 PM Hail and ave to all you CD makin' Mudcatters. I am still here though I will not be reviewing until TUNE UP revs up again, after the festival. Our festival is the oldest and one of the biggest in the US. The profits from the ticket sales fund the myriad of programs and grants that the PFS has been offering for the past forty-five years. Of interest to this thread, our monthly publication, TUNE UP, is read by thousands of folksong fans on the East Coast. In addition, the PFS is the major employer of folksingers in this area (or any other that I know). Besides our festival, in August, we present monthly concerts, house concerts, workshops, school programs. library programs, community service programs and our Please Touch Museum series. I have a backlog of wonderful CDs to review in October but there's always room for one more. You can send me your product for review at the PFS office or, if you have questions, you can e-mail me (musicmic@rcn.com) Mike Miller Philadelphia Folksong Society 7113 Emlen St. Phila PA 19119 |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: reggie miles Date: 19 Oct 02 - 03:26 PM Okay kids, I've got a new one that some here have gotten an earful of and they've told me it passes muster or, no, wait a minute, maybe they were asking me to pass the mustard. I'm not sure, but that could mean that many parts are edible with the right condiments or maybe it's difficult to swallow without something to kill the taste. So, if you're lookin for something to listen to that lacks relish and needs mustard by all means give my cd a spin. It's called At The Crossroads and features a couple of friends, Jack Cook and Hugh Sutton, playing along with guitars and keyboards. It's an eclectic mishmash of obscurities from the dimly lit archives of America's waste land, resuscitated for your perusal. So, act now! Don't wait! Be the first one on your block to run out your door screaming wildly, I got it! Then when your neighbors calm down, and you convince them that you haven't contracted some contagious infirmaty, you can tell them all about the many gems therein like, The Man With The Weird Beard, The Girl With The Shimmy In Her Pants, Mama Don't Give All The Lard Away, and Some Little Bug. Don't be surprised though if they turn away with fearful expressions running and shrieking and threatening to call the Hasmat team or the men in white coats to come and take you away. It's just their way of saying that they've already got a copy. Oops! I guess I should have included some kind of contact info as a part of that post. Thanks Stephan for keepin' my nose to the grindstone. I start having too much fun and lose all my sensibities. So, here it is. The easiest way to contact me regarding the procurement of said disc is at this email address: shilo.windsor@verizon.net Have a silly day, ;~) Reg |
