5 stars More mellow but nice
This CD is somewhat more mellow than some of Dan's other CDs...hence the title. It's nice music for winding the kids down at the end of the day. If you're a Dan Zanes fan (and we definitely are) it's a great one to get.

Allman Brothers Band Dreams CDs (1989) Box Set

Family Dance album

$38.09

DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts. Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson. Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview of the Allmans' history, thus attracting buyers seeking the ultimate hits package, and including enough unreleased tracks and rarities to appeal to the band's most devoted fans. As a result, DREAMS is neither the definitive Allman Brothers collection nor the gift to hardcore fans that, say, THE BOOTLEG SERIES is to Dylan-philes. DREAMS' strengths are considerable. First and foremost, the box contains nearly five wall-to-wall hours of great music. By including everything from early demos to Gregg ...

Dan Zanes House Party CD (2003)

Family Dance songs

$11.25

Zanes performs a duet with Deborah Harry (from Blondie) on the classic folk song "Waltzing Matilda." Even though the lyric to this tune revolves around stealing, a near arrest, and an implied suicide, listeners have long embraced the silliness of these lyrics about a swagman (roving farmhand) and a jumbuck (sheep). Another 19th-century tramp song, "Wabash Cannonball," is performed here by Zanes and Grateful Dead singer Bob Weir. The words to this piece recount the mythical transcontinental train known as the Wabash Cannonball. This hobo classic is given an upbeat bluegrass treatment and Zanes and Weir really invoke the mystique of the lone boxcar drifter. Like other Dan Zanes and Friends albums, the recently Grammy nominated House Party was made in Dan's home in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, where people regularly drop in, tune up, and head down to the basement to record.It was meant to be completed during a January-February break in touring, but winter became spring, the friends kept showing up, and the tape kept rolling. The outcome is an hour-long, 20-song tribute ...

Ry Cooder My Name Is Buddy CD (2007)

Family Dance album

$17.85

With a concept that could have failed on so many levels in lesser hands, Ry Cooder stuns once again in MY NAME IS BUDDY and demonstrates why he is one of America's most adventurous musicians. His chosen material is a loose collection of animal character sketches--the titular Buddy is a cat--based on labor struggles and the lower class in Depression-era America. Think of it as Woody Guthrie meets Beatrix Potter. While an odd construct on page for a man that ...

Leatherface Last CD (2001)

Family Dance music CDs

$11.65

After the band reformed in the late '90s, Better Youth Organization began releasing both new and reissued albums from Leatherface to popular and critical acclaim. The first reissue was their first album, Cherry Knowle, which demonstrated a band trying to form a musical force by melding elements from Motorhead and Hüsker Dü, usually to rather bland punk metallic success. The second reissue from BYO is the final album by Leatherface in the band's first incarnation; recorded in December 1993 within a month or two of their initial breakup, the album is appropriately called The Last. The original release had only eight tracks, ending up with "Ba Ba Ba Ba Boo," Frankie Stubbs' goofy send-up of early Tom Waits. The original album provided some of the best substance for a comparision to Hüsker Dü; note the seventh track, "Winsome, Losesome," sung by drummer Andrew Laing with a clearer and slightly higher-register voice than the usual gruff and hoarse-voiced lead man Stubbs. Every other track of the original eight album songs are damned good, from "Little White God" on. "Daylight Comes" is the highlight, performed with onrushing speed and capped off by Laing's frenzied use of the double bass pedal. On the other side of the reissue are eight additional songs recorded without the other guitarist, Dickie Hammond, and swapping ...
