Maria Muldaur's self-titled debut record instantly established Muldaur as a major talent and began a career-long melding of American musical styles. Fun, cheerful, and full of the sheer love of playing music, MARIA MULDAUR uses bits of country, pop, blues, rock & roll, jug band, early jazz, and all other manner of roots music to create what could be called one of the first true Americana albums. The record also produced the New York-born vocalist's biggest hit, the sultry Top 10 single, "Midnight at the Oasis," which features the languid, spine-tingling guitar work of the great Amos Garrett. A landmark album in both Muldaur's career and the 1970's music scene, MARIA MULDAUR is that rare combination of brilliant interpreter matched with top-notch tunes and sympathetic sidemen.
From the sweet to the salacious to the poignant, Maria Muldaur's eponymous, strong debut features savvy studio vets, talented guests, strong tunes, and Muldaur's lissome pipes. The outstanding players include Ry Cooder, David Grisman, Clarence White, and Mac Rebennack, better known as Dr. John. A tasteful guitar solo by the underrated Amos Garrett elevates the charming surprise hit single "Midnight at the Oasis." Although she later gravitated to jazz and gospel, Muldaur's first outing is heavy on songs derived from country and blues. A rousing "Work Song," borrowed from Kate & Anna McGarrigle, is only one of several highlights. ~ Mark Allan

Tinsley Ellis has worked hard since the early 1980s to establish himself on the contemporary blues scene. As a result, he has become one of the most consistent, and therefore quintessential, electric blues men. He's also a good songwriter in that he stretches the blues form as far as it will go, and occasionally he crosses into solid hard rock territory. On SPEAK NO EVIL, it seems as though Ellis has been listening to some of Robin Trower's early to mid-period records. And what seems to be at work on SPEAK NO EVIL is Ellis trying to push the blues form in a decidedly more rockist direction without losing its emotional feel. Check out the opening track, "Sunlight of Love" With its hard-driven wah-wah pedals ...
| | Memphis Jug Band 1932-1934 CD (2002)
Maria Muldaur
$14.05
Personnel: Charlie Burse (vocals, guitar, mandolin); Vol Stevens (vocals, mandolin); Jab Jones (vocals, piano); Robert Burse (vocals, drums); Charlie Pierce (violin); Will Shade (harmonica); Otto Gilmore (drums, wood block).
Liner Note Author: Chris Smith .
Recording information: 08/03/1932-11/08/1934.
One of the great cultural achievements of the late 20th century was the reissuing of the Memphis Jug Band's complete recorded output on Document in four volumes with an appendix on Wolf records reserved for alternate takes. The fourth installment picks up the trail of this gutsy little group two years after they were eliminated from Victor's roster of regularly recorded talent. Tracks 1-5 were recorded in Richmond, Indiana on August 3, 1932. These records were released (as by the Picaninny Jug Band) on Gennett's low-budget subsidiary Champion, but didn't sell very well because most regular people at that time were scuffling just to be able to buy essentials like food and shoes. Tracks 6-21, recorded in Chicago on November 6, 7, and 8, 1934 and released on Okeh and Vocalion, represent the last go-round for the Memphis Jug Band. Most everything on this wonderful disc sounds jazzier and more slaphappy than much of their earlier work. Will Shade's harmonica is very prominent, as is the jug of Jab Jones, who plays piano on his own "Mary Anna Cutoff," named for Marianna, Arkansas, a town that exists on the banks of the L'Anguille river southwest of Memphis. Other members of the band during these final sessions were Charlie Burse, a guitarist who doubled on mandolin; Vol Stevens, a mandolin player who also played the jug; violinist Charlie Pierce, who originally worked with W.C. Handy's Memphis Blues Band; and several percussionists including an unidentified washboard player, Robert Burse and Otto Gilmore. These are some of the most entertaining and hokum-stoked records in the entire Memphis Jug Band discography, especially "The Gator Wobble," "The Jazzbo Stomp," "Bottle It Up and Go," and "The Memphis Shakedown." In 1940 the joyous ebullience of "The Insane Crazy Blues" and "Little Green Slippers" would be rekindled by "Big" Joe McCoy and his washboard band. And the marvelous "Jug Band Quartette," a sanguine salute to this type of entertainment, was revisited during the '60s on a long-playing phonograph record by the Jim Kweskin Jug Band.

Kennebec—(ken-e-bek) n.—1. fusion of five talented musicians whose musical roots and influences, from groundbreaking punk to metal and alternative to heavy rock, create a lucid, almost liquid, montage of rich Rock N' Roll to cultivate the senses. Keith Hovis and Nate Baier, began the new millennium playing music with a college ministry and found that music was the ultimate form of communication. As fate would have it, Rick Gilbreath joined the band lending his ripping leads. Matt Brown joined the band, bringing progressive perspective, rhythm and percussion. And Kennebec was complete when John O'Leary followed bringing the bass line and groove.The members of Kennebec have dedicated their lives to music and ministry. Keithexplained: "In our music and in our lives, we are constantly searching for something, it's in the journey. Its like Einstein said, '…the most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It's the source of all true art.' And it's in Christ that we find the answers to life's many mysteries." Kennebec's vision is to use their ...
