We're charging $15.00. I'll give you the details with the CD in the mail, I'll pay the postage. Or if you'd care to wait, the website will be up and it'll have links to CD Baby and CD Street, and ultimately Amazon.com, but, of course, the best way for us is just to PM me your mailing address and do it directly. Big hug, Chance |

26 Jun 03 - 02:32 PM (#972853) Subject: CD Review: Joe Hickerson From: Fortunato 1,000,000 thanks to Joe for our first formal review of the CD: "Chance and Susette Shiver, have issued a new CD, THE SHIVERS ON THE AIR, and I am happy to declaim: IT IS GREAT! But, what is it? Is it a neat selection of well-performed old-time country songs? It is indeed that. Or is it a delightfully funny old-time radio program? It is certainly that too. Well, to tell the truth, it is both! Chance and Susette have joined together with fellow musicians Scottie Giambusso, Robert Spates, and Robbie Robinson, radio announcer Michael Scanlan, and producer/engineer Bob Hitchcock to record a well-paced, old-time rural radio program complete with mock commercials, hilarious dialogues, and great songs, with appropriate live audience responses. The selection and performances are all good. My current favorites are "Cannonball Blues" (great guitar work and play), "Crow Black Chicken" (makes me hungry), the story of Aunt Flory's abduction by aliens (they returned her to earth after she cooked them a meal), and the commercial about the wind-up vacuum cleaner, the Honeyville Hummer ("It really sucks!"). And Susette's vocal on "Foggy Mountain Top" reminds me very much of one of the Kossoy Sisters (but I can't tell which one). All in all, and in a word: "It's Great Music and Great Fun!" and "Don't Miss It If You Can!" Commentary by: Joe Hickerson, retired (would you believe five years ago!) Head of the Library of Congress Archive of Folk Culture. |

30 Jun 03 - 08:25 PM (#974778) Subject: RE: CD Release: The Shivers (Fortunato) From: SINSULL OUCH! "She broke her arm in two places - the back porch and ..." This is my first time hearing Susette and Chance together and I loved it. Best line - the Arabian horse. Best song - tough one. Sorry Chance but Susette's "Foggy Mountain Top" did it for me. But then, so did Cannonball Blues. This CD has all the music and charm of an old time Country radio show minus the static. Wonderful tunes, great musicians (an amazing fiddle), and just plain fun. I do love hearing those old time harmonies. Thanks for my copy. SINS PS Add a tearjerker or two to the next one. Just doesn't seem right to miss the opportunity. M. |

30 Jun 03 - 08:34 PM (#974784) Subject: RE: CD Release: The Shivers (Fortunato) From: SINSULL I almost forgot: For those of you who melt at the sound of a lonesome yodeller, don't miss "Peach Pickin' Time In Georgia". Maybe that's my favorite. |

02 Jul 03 - 09:15 AM (#975114) Subject: RE: CD Release: The Shivers (Fortunato) From: Fortunato SINSULL, We're proud you liked it. Foggy Mountain Top is a favorite of mine as well, and now she's added a yodel that really rings, when she finishes, that song is SUNG. Thanks very much. Chance |

19 Jul 03 - 10:19 PM (#986811) Subject: RE: CD Release: The Shivers (Fortunato) From: Fortunato May I please deliver a low sweeping bow to the lovely and talented catsPHizzle. Susette and I are so glad you enjoy the CD. Now, we only want to hear that you will be coming to stay with us this fall for the Getaway, and indeed the lovely Noreen and the Shellbacks will be here as well. Give the little micca a kiss for us on his face and one for you, as well. Until we see you. Thanks, Chance |

20 Jul 03 - 07:41 AM (#986937) Subject: RE: CD Release: The Shivers (Fortunato) From: Jerry Rasmussen More huzzahs from Ruth and me, Chance and Susette! The Cd is great fun. I hope that it is a wonderful door opener for both of you! There's nothing like the two of you around, so I'm not sure who to compare you to. The closest I can come is to the New Lost City Ramblers, who sprinkled their performance with old groaners that could make even the most determined grouch laugh. I still remember some of them, and I hear them in 1961! Thanks so much for sharing it with us! Love, Jerry and Ruth |

20 Jul 03 - 09:52 AM (#986972) Subject: RE: CD Release: The Shivers (Fortunato) From: Fortunato Jerry, my friend, thanks so much. I never heard the NLCR live, but they are great sources for the lyrics and history of tunes and we are great admirers of theirs. I had no idea they told some old groaners, but they know the genre better than anyone, and I'm not surprised if threw in some Uncle Dave Macon and Skillet Licker's 'groaners'. I'm very proud that you and Ruth enjoy the CD. Please give her our best. Hope to see you guys sometime. Cheers, Chance |
