Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: mandotim Date: 05 Apr 06 - 06:10 AM Hi all; This is on the 'NorthernCDs' thread as well; is this ok Joe?Bit on the Side have a CD out called 'Running Through the Heart', and it's available at our gigs or by mail order. A Personal Message on this board will do, or you can go to http://www.myspace.com/bit_on_the_side where you can hear four tracks (MP3, not CD quality) before you decide. The CD is recorded so that we can reproduce it live, ie no megastar guests or 'wall of sound' overdubs; it sounds like we do if we play a gig at your folk club. A lot of the songs are about work, especially mining, and there is a blend of traditional stuff, contemporary songs and some of our own music. Tracks are; Black Veins (Rodgers) Blackleg Miner (Trad) World Turned Upside Down (Rosselson) Blind Mary/Planxty Irwin (O'Carolan) I End Up Drinking Alone (Rodgers) The Harvest Had Failed (Rodgers) King of the Faeries/Sally Gardens (Trad) Keep Your Feet Still Geordie Hinny (Wilson) Shabby Seaside Towns (Mundy) Salty Dog Blues (Trad) I Don't Know Where I'm Going (Rodgers) Weary Whaling Grounds (Trad) Buckets of Rain (Dylan) Willafjord/Pig Ankle Rag (Trad) Howay the Lads (Rodgers) Going Home (Rodgers) Hope to hear from some of you! Tim from Bit on the Side |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: closet-folkie Date: 26 Dec 05 - 02:49 PM I'd like to add my CD "Away For The Day" to the "Better Late Than Never" column, if I may. My songs are all self-penned and are not what you'd call trad. folk by any stretch. I suppose it's more of a folky-pop for poppy-folk sort of thing, really. You can read reviews at the link below if you'd like. Cheers then, Steve R. Steve Robinson |
Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: Barbara Shaw Date: 26 Dec 05 - 12:05 PM Our band ShoreGrass recently released our 2nd CD, "Songs of the Civil War Era," which I announced in another Mudcat thread: ShoreGrass: Songs of the Civil War Era It's available at CDbaby.com: http://cdbaby.com/cd/shoregrass The album contains 20 songs recorded live at a performance we did awhile ago and sound samples are available at cdbaby.com. Some of you might enjoy this collection of what people were singing and thinking then and now about an important period in American history. |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: Stephen L. Rich Date: 13 Nov 05 - 12:17 AM We finally did it!!! Sandy Andina and I have been promising to make a CD for the last six years. The promise has finally been kept. It's called Andina and Rich : Because We Can . The Songs A FINE ROMANCE – We open in a most un-folkie-like fashion with a treasured old showtune written by Dorothy Fields and Jerome Kern. You have to imagine, for a moment, that Sandy and I are Fred and Ginger (Fred Flintstones and Ginger Ale). TIME HAS NO MERCY – Early in the 19th century the United States fought a war against Mexico. Like all wars, it has its mythology (on either side of the Rio Grande). America's move west is no less steeped in folklore. This song tries to cut through some of it. BECAUSE WE CAN – The events described in this song actually happened to Sandy. This is for anyone who has been screwed by a bureaucracy. Even if you are part of a bureaucracy a bigger bureaucracy than your own has probably shafted you. This song is still for you. SHIRA – Sometimes it is easier to see the big issues more clearly if you look at them thorough the eyes of one person. In that spirit Sandy examines the thoughts of an Isaerli border guard. THE CONMAN – Amongst Sandy's talents is a knack for creating sharp parodies. We regularly perform this backspin on Michael Smith's "The Dutchman" in the ongoing hope that Michael will not have us drawn and quartered. MUDBALL – It is impossible to experience life's joys without having also known abject despair. SAFE HOME – Despite the Political Right's claims to the contrary, those of us who oppose the war in Iraq DO care about our soldiers in the line of fire. The one thing upon which we can all agree is that we want those kids to get home in one piece. MY GRANDFATHER"S CLOCK – Parodies are like potato chips. We couldn't do just one. ORANGE AND PINK PRAIRIE SKY – When driving long distances by yourself you may, at some point, get so caught in the rhythm of travel as to acieve a sort of zen; a moment when you feel more free than you have ever felt before. It happened to Sandy whilst driving from the airport in Joplin, MO to a gig in Coffeyville, KS. YOU CAN'T DO IT ALL ON YOUR OWN – Let's face it. We need each other for a lot of things. Even this song is a group effort. It was written by Stephen Lee, Sandy, and Alan Moorhouse (alanabit). It's already an international projrect. Join the fun. The more the merrier. We're hoping that it has a future as an organizing song. A FINE ROMANCE – We open in a most un-folkie-like fashion with a treasured old showtune written by Dorothy Fields and Jerome Kern.

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: Briagha Date: 11 Nov 05 - 02:29 PM I finally got my stuff together and recorded the CD that's been in my head for the past few years! Wish I'd done it ages ago. Much of the credit goes to the encouragement of friends & mentors who played on the recording: Donnie Macdonald, Jimmy Keigher, John Taylor and Glenn Cornick. Release party will be December 3 at CTMS in Encino, CA thanks to FolkWorks. It's on CD Baby at Where The Heart Is now. Feels a little funny to be "blowing my own horn," but I actually like the finished product and felt like telling someone. |

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: Stephen L. Rich Date: 11 Nov 05 - 02:25 AM In this business one has to re-invent one's self regularly. Toward that end I have taken the plunge and become a record producer. My first effort in that direction is an anthology of performers based in the American Midwest (for the most part Madison, WI and Chicago in this volume, but in future we will expand the focus). It's called Tappin' Out A Rhythm. Pickin' Out A Tune. I'm kind of proud of it, but, then again, I'm the producer. Songs: Eleven Below - Sof Sof Sos Sof (pronounced with the long "o" sound) are Miriam Brosseau and Alan Sufrin. Whereas most dous tend to bang out the exact same chords at the same time and sing only half-step harmonies, these two both play guitar well and write for vocal counterpoint. Eleven Below is, believe it or not, a love song. They're from Wisconsin. It's cold up here. What amazes me is the level of sophistication that they have achieved at such a young age (they both just got legal to buy beer). When they get to my age (50-ish) they are going to be genuine powerhouses as songwriters. Tera's Tune - Bowen Marvik There are few good guitar instrumentalists (remember I said "good"). Fewer still who compose thier own material. Bowen is both. This tune and Luck Of Lily J, later in the disc, prove that beyond a doubt. Because We Can - Andina and Rich Yes. I am the second half of this team. Sandy Andina and I have been sitting in on one another's sets for twenty years. We finally decided to make a formal act out of it. This is one of Sandy's originals. It will be the title track to the upcoming Andina and Rich CD. Be careful if you are sensitive about bad lnguage. This one has some English and Yiddish curse words in it. However, all of the incidents described in the song are true! Black Is The Colour - Jeremy O'Sullivan Note the British spelling. Jeremy is genuinely Irish (as opposed to being Irish-American or some other such hyphenate). As a singer I am always surprised, pleased and more than a bit surprised when someone has sufficient command of the gift to breathe new life into an old song (especially when it's one which has been as regularly brutalized as this one). Jeremy's version is a breath of fresh air. Moj dilbere - Mazurka Wojciechowska Maz collects and performs the songs of Eastern Europe. This one is from a CD she did with the Slavic Projection Folk Ensemble. The translation: My sweetheart, where did you go that you did not visit me this evening? Were you ill or did you fall in love with another? I'd rather find out that you were sick than courting someone else. I've Had That Happen To Me - Stephen Lee Rich You didn't think that I was going to do this whole thing without throwing one of my own song in here, did you? If you bought the Mudcat collection or my solo CD you've heard this one. If not, you need to, at least, get a copy of the Mudcat collection (six wonderful volumes, available from this site). This is a song about the world's worst hangover. Old Wisconsin River - The Dustbunnies I had the same reaction as you just did when I first heard the name. The Dustbunnies are Bill Fallon and Ben Doran. This nostalgic song was written by Bill, Ben, and Ben's grandfather, Ben Queen. Fire On The Prairie - Aaron Nathans Aaron is a working journalist by day and a fine songwriter and performer by night (don't ask about the full moon).This is a talent to watch. He'll be with us for a long time to come. BTW, as far as I know his song, I Remember Howard Dean, is still downloadable from the All Songs Considered website (I don't know the URL for that). Spirit of Life - Ingrid Frances Stark Ingrid is a songwriter, poet, artist, craftsmaker, and photographer based in Madison, WI. Given that she is also my life partner I risk a prepostoerous level of hyperbole if I say any more. It might call my objectivity into question. Calling the Shamrock - Jeremy O'Sullivan This is a homesickness song which could only have been written by an Irishman in Wisconsin. You Called? - Ingrid Frances Stark A bit of inspired silliness from Ingrid. It's the outbound message on her telephone answering machine. Luck of Lily J - Bowen Marvik Shira - Sandy Andina Sandy's insightful and moving song told from the point of view of an Isreali border gaurd. It was recorded live at Wild Hog In The Woods Coffeehouse in Madison, Wisconsin in September of 2003. Muck - Andina and Rich Just for fun You may have noticed that the title (above) is a blue clicky. It links to the CD Baby.com page for this CD. You can hear portions of most of the songs on streaming audio on that page. This thing was a labor of love. While the above comments may seem like ad copy, I meant every word. Let me know what you think. Be well. Stephen Lee I have an update on the anthology "Tappin' Out A Rhythm. Pickin' Out A Tune" on Travenia Records. It is now available for online download (as a full album or one song at a time) from AppleiTunes and from MP3.com!!! Details about the anthology itself are posted earlier in this thread. I posted that when the CD became available through CD Baby.com. The link for the MP3.com page is below. Click here and enjoy!

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: chris nightbird childs Date: 29 Mar 05 - 01:05 PM My disc is called Blues For Nightowls, and it contains original songs with the exception of two covers, "Brokedown Engine" by Blind Willie McTell and "One More Cup of Coffee" by Bob Dylan. The mostly acoustic originals are performed by myself, and are a combination of Blues, American Folk & Rock. Together these types of music are comprised to create my style, which I have spent the past couple years perfecting (I hope). Most of these were written with my wife Brigitte. I perform with 6- & 12- string guitars and occasional percussion. The tracklist is as follows : 1.Figment 2.Tomorrow's Calling 3.3,000 Miles 4.Take These Chains (sung with Brigitte) 5.Brokedown Engine (Willie McTell) 6.No Yesterdays 7.Duet in the Aftermath 8.One More Cup of Coffee (Bob Dylan) 9.Witchseason (Instrumental) 10.Ballad of the Wasted Wind 11.Gray Skies 12.Lesson of Love & Hate To purchase a copy of my CD for $5 just goto the link below...

Subject: RE: Mudcatter CD's PermaThread From: Cool Beans Date: 27 Nov 04 - 11:56 AM Marty Kohn: "Drawerful of Fives" cdbaby.com/martykohn Yes, those are real five-dollar bills on the cover. Two years of collecting fives, instead of raiding the kids' college fund, went into making this CD. Check out "Home on the Range" in Yiddish. Discover how "Chopsticks" sounds on the guitar. Find out where "40th and Plum" really is. Go down to "Repo Depot," home of cheap vehicles, where another man's misfortune might be your ticket out of town. Toss in traditional and quasi-traditional favorites like "Candy Man," "Freight Train'' and "Under the Double Eagle." "Mauna Loa" from Hawaii, "Guabi Guabi" from South Africa, "Castle on a Cloud" from Paris by way of Broadway (singable only by waifs, this is a guitar solo). Plus a surprise or two. |
