| | Amity Front Highway Bound CD Amity Front Discography of CDs
"The Amity Front is clearly a band on the rise. Their chops are impressive in their restraint, and they have a musical richness that comes from long summer days sitting on the porch pickin' and smokin'." --NORTHEAST PERFORMER MAGAZINE January 2006Depending on whom you ask!It's a story that has a few different versions of the truth. The way 23-year old, lead singer Erik Alan tells it, he was, '!on a road trip from Detroit with my buddy and his dog!lookin' for some people to play with one night. ' Someone else will tell you that after meeting some folks at an old-time session, and having a late-night jam, the finger-picking kid from Detroit with the huge voice never left. (They didn't bother to ask him if he was serious when he asked, 'If I move out here, do you want to start a band?'')Regardless of what really happened, Amherst, Massachusetts-based The Amity Front has developed into one of the best old time-blues and americana bands the Pioneer Valley has ever heard. The sound is a ride into America's past, complete with Alan's finger-picking, lead guitar Levin Schwartz's dynamic solos and upright bassist Max Adam's walking bass lines. Whether it is a Kentucky work song, blues from the Delta or one of their rock and roll-tinged originals, The Amity Front are intelligent, engaging live performers and are backed by their solid debut release, Highway Bound. The early 2006 full-length release is produced by David 'Goody' Goodrich (highly acclaimed collaborator and producer for such names as Peter Mulvey, Chris Smither, Jeffrey Foucault, Kris Delmhorst and Redbird) and recorded at the legendary Windham Hotel in Bellows Falls, VT. Highway Bound has a timeless sound that holds its own among the ancients and simultaneously reinvents the modern-day blues with old time sound. Of The Amity Front and Highway Bound, Goodrich says, 'The Amity Front are one of the most exciting bands I've heard in awhile!A sound and feel well beyond their years, with their ears to the ground. 'The story of a finger-picking, blues-singing Detroit native up and moving across the country to join a band and make music may have been written before, but The Amity Front and Highway Bound are ready to have their shot at it!no matter who you ask.

| | J J Cale Naturally CD (1971)
Highway Bound CD music
$8.15 
NATURALLY has stood up over the years as a perfect debut. When released in 1971, it introduced J.J. Cale's rootsy, laid back grooves to excellent effect, and in the decades since, this album and its follow-up, REALLY, have remained classics of mellow '70s country-rock. Riding on the success and easy blues feel of Eric Clapton's cover of Cale's "After Midnight," NATURALLY goes even deeper into roots music, concocting a mixture of country, blues, and boogie that is full of downhome goodness while it drips with cool.
Cale's version of "After Midnight" is here, as is his loping ...

Highway Bound music CDs
$11.99
Recorded in Chicago, Illinois on April 21-23, 1969 and live at the Super Cosmic Joy-Scout Jamboree, Chicago, Illinois on April 24, 1969. Includes liner notes by Bill Dahl.
Digitally remastered by Erick Labson (universal Mastering-West, Hollywood, California)..
The resurgence of Chicago-based blues in the mid- to late 1960s came with an entirely new breed of icons to bear the torch. Among them were the decidedly electric Paul Butterfield Blues Band. Joining Muddy Waters (guitar/vocals) and Otis Spann (piano) on the aptly titled Fathers and Sons are three Butterfield Blues Band alumni: Michael Bloomfield (guitar), Sam Lay (drums), and leader ...

| | Deni Rosetta Llovet Motherhood Babyhood CD (2005)
Highway Bound album
$17.69
Deni Rosetta Llovet is a musician who lives in Missoula, Montana. She is also a Family Nurse Practitioner, a Registered nurse, and a Student Nurse Midwife (eligible for midwifery boards in April of '06). Deni has been playing and writing music since she was four years old. She remembers hearing music coming out of the engine noise of cars.Her style is eclectic, leaning toward folk-rock, with blues and jazz influences. She like to be funny. Since she was born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee, an occassional twang may still be heard. The most important aspect of her music is its authenticity. "I want to write songs about real things that happen to real people". A pleasant, catchy melody and an interesting chord progression can be counted upon. Motherhood~Babyhood is Deni Rosetta's tribute to the beauty and challenge of becoming a parent... and being a child. Since Deni is a midwife, she knows first-hand just what that is all about. Just listen to the first cut "Babycatcher's Rag" and if you've ever had a baby, or watched one being born, you'll identify with the lyrics! The entire CD is designed to be easy to listen to, very mellow, suitable for adults or children. The tenth song "The Ash Grove" is an instrumental harp song performed by Andrea E. McCarthy, of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. This song opens the second half of the album, which is entirely lullabies. Some are original, some traditional, one is in Czechoslavakian! Joining Deni Rosetta on Motherhood~Babyhood are her nieces, Dakota Cannavaro and Nicole Cannavaro -- both accomplished musicians -- and her sister Teri Llovet on bass guitar. Nicole, ...
| | Measured Chaos Live CD (2003)
Highway Bound CD music
$12.65
"Muddy Waters said it, you know the blues got a soul...Well the blues had a baby and they named the baby rock & roll" Measured Chaos takes that statement to heart. Blues, Soul & Rock 'n' Roll. Those three ingredients are their inspiration, as well as their direction. The band is heavily influenced by Chicago's classic blues, Detroit's R&B, the Rock music explosion of the late sixties, and they have the pedigrees to prove it. Al Jacquez, Mark Tomorsky, Mark Gougeon and Bill Gordon enjoyed impressive musical careers before being fused together as Measured Chaos. Their collective credits include; Savage Grace, Lightnin', Mitch Ryder, Guardian Angel, Mark Lindsay, Little Richard, Billy Preston, Jamie James, John Mellencamp, Johnny Powers, The Suspects, The Reflections, Frigid Pink, as well as work for commercials, film and television. Live shows by the Detroit based quartet are a powerful reminder that connecting with an audience is the most important part of any performance. It brings a physical definition to the phrase 'substance over style.' ...
| | Tide CD (2005)
Highway Bound music CDs
$15.19
Tide is a unique find in the overcrowded field of indie bands in New York City. At first glance, they perform a blend of power pop highlighting well written, radio ready songs. However, peeling off the first layer reveals an ambitious underbelly: adventurous and unyielding in the pursuit of new sonic and harmonic possibilities within the construct of the pop song. To understand Tide's particular brand of indie is to understand the influences of the group's songwriter, Chris Powers. He grew up on a steady diet of 60's pop music, from the mod sound of The Who and The Kinks, to the California pop of The Byrds and The Mamas & The Papas, to the early psychedelia of Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd, ...
