$14.49 From the beginning, Solas has been a group that likes to mix it up, blending traditional Celtic melodies with an updated instrumental approach, but their fourth album, 2000's The Hour Before Dawn, found them moving away from the passionate jigs and reels of their earlier work into a more introspective style. The group's fifth disc, The Edge of Silence, finds them venturing even farther down this path; the sessions were produced by Solas leader ...

| | Etta James Heart Of A Woman CD (1999)
Midsummer's Night music CDs
$8.75 HEART OF A WOMAN was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Performance.
There's no denying that Etta James is a powerhouse, one of the finest blues singers of the 20th century. Perhaps that's what makes her latter-day records so frustrating: The talent is still apparent and abundant, but the albums themselves are unsatisfying. All the ingredients are in the right place, but something went slightly awry during the execution. After all, Heart of a Woman is a great idea for an album. James chose 11 love songs from her favorite female singers -- Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughn, and Carmen McRae -- augmenting the album with a new version of her signature song, "At Last." She has recorded several of these songs before (including Alice Cooper's "Only Women Bleed," which inexplicably became a standard for both her and McRae), but the difference with Heart of a Woman is the context. Here, they're put in a smooth jazz setting, masterminded by James, who has producer credit. No matter how well she sings the songs here -- and she still possesses an exceptionally strong voice, robust and filled with passion -- the well-scrubbed, glossy surfaces on the record keeps it from being engaging. It's not bad listening, it just never has the emotional impact James intended it to have. At times, it's hard not to wish that ...

| | Billy Womack Down At The Barber Shop CD (2004)
Midsummer's Night music CDs
$15.75 His close friends called him Hon. Some of his picking buddies called him Worm. He was known as the Cannon County Snake Skinner and as Billy the Barber. Whatever name Billy Womack answered to depended on the crowd he was running with at any particular time. The stories surrounding Billy Womack could easily fill a book. He was a champion fiddler, a mean guitar player, a master buck dancer, and a violin maker. He taught others to play the fiddle, sheared countless heads of hair, was famous for skinning rattlesnakes and for playing practical jokes, and weighed 104 pounds soaking wet. He influenced scores of young musicians who traveled miles of country roads to jam with him in his fabled Bluegrass Barber Shop. All of these talents and traits combined to make a man who was a local legend, and one of the most sorely under recorded fiddlers in Tennessee traditional music.Billy Womack, a lifelong Cannon County resident, was born in Sycamore Creek, twelve miles to the north of Woodbury, on October 22, 1922. His parents, Joe Bob Womack, a former teacher, and Elizabeth Higgins Womack owned a grocery in downtown Woodbury, in a stone building that still stands on East Main Street today. Billy taught himself the art of barbering and opened the barbershop beside his parents' store. Billy could have easily become a professional musician but chose to remain close to his home and his ...
