SIMPLE GIFTS features instrumental arrangements of Shaker melodies.

Simple Gifts is a collection of instrumental versions of the songs of the Shakers, a charismatic Christian sect that flourished in the United States in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Guitarist William Coulter and cellist Barry Phillips are both members of the acoustic group Orison, and they draw on a pool of fellow Gourd-label musicians to support them, as well as Windham Hill artist Mike Marshall who appears on nearly all the tracks playing mandolin, mandocello, violin or viola. From the very familiar to the relatively obscure, this is a charming album that mixes the simplicity and liveliness of American folk music with the elegant reverence of hymns. ~ Backroads Music/Heartbeats

Recorded at Bear Creek Studio, Santa Cruz, California in 1990. Includes liner notes by Daniel W. Patterson.

Personnel: William Coulter (guitar), Barry Phillips (cello, bowed psaltery, spoons, harmonium), Robin Petrie (hammered dulcimer), Neal Hellman (mountain dulcimer), Kaila Flexer (violin), Esther Landau (flute), Shelley Phillips (English horn, Irish harp).

5 stars Authentic sound
This is a lovely and lively set of arrangements, authentically performed in a manner to evoke the century before the one before. Beautifully done, and very moving.

You might not expect much from a Dylan tribute album limited to the artists of one small label, but if so, you're in for a surprise: This CD turns out to be every bit as inspired as anything on the all-star Madison Square Garden tribute that marked Dylan's 30th year in the music business. One reason is that the artists on the Red House label (which happens to be based in the state Dylan hails from) prove extremely well-suited to the task and well-matched to the material. Another is that that material is just so darn wonderful. There's no way a single disc could do justice ...

Scottish singer/songwriter Joseph Malik and his collaborator and producer David Donnelly have been on the underground scene since the late 1990s. They began as the duo MF Outa National, recorded an album for Mo' Wax Headz, and issued a number of EPs on Stereo MC's Response label as Black Anized. But it wasn't until Malik conceived his "Futuristica" project -- where he not only began to actively encounter, but also to incorporate, elements of nu-jazz and the sound coming out of Manchester's New Century Soul Club into his work, along with organic textures and acoustic instruments -- that it all came together into something wildly original and wonderfully wrought. Produced by Donnelly, Malik issued the brilliant Diverse in 2002. That set was filled with acoustic folk/soul/jazz tunes that took the nod from pioneers like Terry Callier and Sheree Brown, and turned into something distinct and modern. On Aquarius Songs, Malik -- again with Donnelly producing and co-writing -- looks to history ...

The Hits Vol 1
Boys Named Sue The Hits Vol 1 CD  (2008)

CD $12.39
When it comes to country music in Dallas the Boys Named Sue are what you would call a “big deal.” As the self-proclaimed "Best Band Ever", the Sues have yet to play for a crowd that they could not win over. While playing the music that folks like to hear, or "the Hits" as they like to call them, these beer swilling, Tuaca shooting ruffians have been known to melt a face or two in the crowd.Originating from the EDT (East Dallas, Texas that is), the Boys Named Sue fuse the best of old country with contemporary styles (rock, hip hop, shock jock) and an infectious stage presence that just makes you want to get up and dance. Just don't forget to dip yer partner when you're done.The Boys Named Sue is comprised of four of Big D's best... or at least best looking musicians. Wrought from such great bands as Slick 57, Rose County Fair, The Fabulous Harmonaires, The Phantom Rockers, Kim Lenz and the Jaguars, JD Whittenburg & Trainwreck and Mark David Manders, these boys have become a musical force unto itself. They can be heard playing in honky-tonks across the greater Texas area and have shared the stage with many influential country artists such as the Wreckers, Old 97s, Junior Brown, Billy Joe Shaver, David Allen Coe, Shooter Jennings, Moot Davis, Pete Anderson, Shaun Sahm, Shandon Sahm, Augie Meyers and Flaco Jimenez as well as some not-so-country folks such as Grammy-Award winning polka band Brave Combo, international touring punk band UK Subs, rockabilly Stray Cat legend Lee Rocker and the bearded rockers ZZ Top.Yielding ...

Lee Hazzard CD  (2006)

Simple Gifts songs
CD $8.55
Lee HazzardLee Hazzard was put together in order to bring that distinct sound of classic rock musicto fans of this music genre. Lee Hazzard consists of Gary Hornbeck on guitar and lead vocals, Mike Dalamore on bass guitar and lead vocals and Scott Dalamore on drums and vocals. The band was formed in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada and is currently working on the live show and will be announcing tour dates soon. Gary Hornbeck:The founding member of Lee Hazzard originally started his music career in the central Ontario region of Canada. Learning a few chords at the tender age of eleven ,Hornbeck did not have thoughts of rock and roll stardom or even playing music for a living. At the age of nineteen Hornbeck was taught a pentatonic blues scale and was fascinated. Thus began an incredible love for the guitar and music. After playing in several rock bands around Ontario, Hornbeck moved to Orlando, Florida and teamed up with Riff West, [Molly Hatchet, Foghat] to form the band “Third Degree” The highlite of that band was playing onstage with Molley Hatchet in Altamont Springs Fla. After that Hornbeck moved back to Ontario where he co founded the band Sleight of Hand, with good friend and song writing partner, D. J. Bingham, lead singer from The Ugly Ducklings, who penned the #1 hit in Canada called “Gaslight“Sleight of Hand received plenty of attention in the central Ontario region and were winners of several homegrown c.d. compilations including Q-107 in Toronto, CKPT in Peterborough and CKLY in Lindsay.After loosing band members, Hornbeck was offered a position as lead guitar with the legendary Ronnie Hawkins and with Bingham’s blessing Hornbeck jumped at the opportunity.First class, prime rib and cognac was truly the rock and roll life style, but the gigs were coming few and far between so Hornbeck ended his tenure with The Hawk which culminated in shooting the video “Days Gone By” at Levon Helm’s studio in Woodstock N.Y. “That was a great time hanging with Levon”. Ricky Danko and Garth Hudson from The Band and John Sebastion all dropped by to say hello and offer their services. The video is at the end of a full length concert DVD “Let it Rock”.It was in celebration of The Hawks 60th Birthday shot at Massey Hall in Toronto with guests The Band, Jerry Lee Lewis, Carl Perkins and Jeff ...
