This band has been kicking around Melbourne, Australia for sometime, releasing solid records on a regular basis. The finest of which is Tribute. There is a timelessness about their particular brand of Celtic rock that makes it as vital today as it was before we had to keep reminding ourselves that its the 21st century. They have an obvious reverence for U2. The band opens up airy atmospheres of sound over which bagpiper Grant Scroggie sprinkles his particular brand of Scottish Magic and I have never heard a piper turn a bagpipe into a saxaphone without missing a beat. Claymore is particularly adept at utilizing dynamics, soft versus hard to drive home a message. The band demonstrates an expansive but serious sound on the Album opener, "North and South" all about the conflict in Ireland which starts off acoustic then roars through its political lyrics and an almost 80's style guitar break that puts one in mind of the Big Country, the 1980 Scottish Rock band. Claymore will surprise you and delight you and is very much in the tradition of Enter the Haggis. "Music Review by Charles Schram CLAYMORE Tribute Songs | 1. | North and South |

Over the last seven years that this CD has been available we have received countless messages from people who have been touched by the music. Some examples: "I play this CD all year" - many places , "This was all my wife wanted to listen to as she was dieing" - Arizona, "This music healed me!" - New Jersey, "You've got to send me another CD, my copy got scratched and won't play .. the dogs are chewing up the furniture" - Oregon.Julia Lane began playing Celtic harp in 1988. Her unique self-taught style had won three major competitions on the instrument by 1993. A New England native, she has an avid interest in the folklore of the area and it's Celtic roots. Her concerts and other recordings also feature her vibrant and lovely voice, sometimes compared to Jean Redpath, and her compelling original songs.The winter holiday season is unique as so many traditions come together to celebrate in common. Much of our modern ceremony and lore has it's roots in the Celtic and northern European cultures. Evergreens, as pagan symbols of everlasting life, have become part of the Christmas celebration (THE FIRST TREE IN THE GREENWOOD/ THE HOLLY & THE IVY).The image of the rose blooming in the winter is a reminder of the beautiful miracles in our lives. Delicate and beautiful as a rose, the evergreen melody LO, HOW A ROSE is the work of the 16th century German composer Michael Praetorius. While most of these melodies do not credit a composer, it is thought that Henry VIII created the tune for WHAT CHILD IS THIS, while Scottish fiddler Niel Gow is known to have penned THE ROYAL GIFT. The original meaning of the word "carol" was "round dance". Circle dancing around a fire was a big part of ancient celebrations attempting to rid the world of evil spirits.(DANCING DAY/ BRING THE TORCH) Another method to banish evil influences was bell ringing. DING! DONG! MERRILY ON HIGH, a French carol, reminds one of the carrillons and tower bells of the great cathedrals.SOALIN'/ GOD REST YE MERRY, GENTLEMEN describes the practice of going house to house gathering donations to help the needy through the winter. In return, the house was blessed with a song or good luck charm. Of course we cannot forget those heavenly messengers, the angels! Legend has it that IN DULCI JUBILO was ...

Tradition has it that Friday 13th is an unlucky day. So what did we do? Not only did we schedule a concert for Friday June 13th 2003, but we also decided to record it for release as a CD! The concert was promoted by Bob Breheny and the Monterey Bay Celtic Society and took place at Judy Hackett's Espresso Garden and Café, a great venue for acoustic music in San Jose, CA. The concert was sold out, the audience was enthusiastically loud, and the result was this CD. The CD contains a mixture of tunes and songs we have already recorded and some previously unrecorded material. We included the old material because the band has a different instrumental lineup now than it did on either of our previous ...

$11.39
Current Albums by James Gray available at cdbaby:Ancient JourneyKing CrabShaman"Ancient Journeys" draws on Mediterranean and Celtic traditions, blended with some electronica and effects. "Ancient Journey" is a magical tour through the travels of a distant time and place. Instruments are electronic and acoustical. I use an M-Audio Midi Keyboard, acoustical harp, penny whistle, psaltery, lap dulcimer, and fiddle. The software I use to create my tracks is Garage Band, (of which I cannot say enough; for this creative tool thank you, Apple, for making a long-standing dream come true.) Tracks are often developed late at night long after the family has gone to bed. Try a few tracks and see if they don't transport you.My Musical InfluencesAfrican; Alternative; Ambient; Appalachian; Avant Guard; Celtic; Celtic New Age; Classical; Delta Blues; Electronica; Experimental; Folk; Impressionist; Indian; Jazz; Native American; New Age; Old English; Old Timey; Classical Persian; Pop; Reggae; Rock; Scottish; Ska; Sound Tracks; South West; Space; Spanish; Swing 30's 40's; World; Zydeco;Tracks of Ancient Journey"Aegean Sea" 4:40A combination of flute, hammered dulcimer and stringed instruments. The hammered dulcimer seems to catch the reflecting water as the sultry woodwinds celebrate the red sky and setting sun. "Colossus" 6:02One of the 7 wonders of the world. It must have been an awesome sight to be aboard a ship passing under this statue as it straddles the harbor entrance to the port city of Rhodes. This piece starts off with the hammering of metal as it is still under construction. It is soon overtaken by awe; the size, the disbelief of just how massive this structure is."Strong City" 4:28This piece captures a ride through a strongly fortified port city and gives the sense of its majesty and the bustling activity of the streets. Imagine yourself on horseback trotting through, taking in all the ambience."Marsh Passage" 5:30A ...
