One of best developments within contemporary bluegrass has been the inclusion of more women, whether they have led their own bands like Alison Krauss or mixed it up with musicians of the opposite sex like the Dixie Bee-Liners. For one, this inclusion means more variety in lead vocal styles, but just as important, it allows for a great deal of breadth and depth in harmony. Both Brandi Hart's lead voice and Rachel Renee Johnson's harmony, together with the voice of Buddy Woodward, provide the Dixie Bee-Liners with a distinctive vocal style with lots of elasticity. The opener, "Down the Crooked Road," namechecks bluegrass greats and offers the group's contemporary rendition of the genre; "The Bugs in the Basement," on the other hand, might be closer to contemporary folk as exemplified by the Be Good Tanyas and others. The real roots lover might complain that the group lacks the grit of either the bluegrass greats it references, or the edgy style of the Be Good Tanyas. And while this complaint has some validity, the simple production and finely recorded acoustic sound of Ripe never sounds like it's been tweaked for radio. The Dixie Bee-Liners mix of folk and bluegrass, and the variety of the vocal arrangements within both styles, make Ripe much more interesting than the average contemporary bluegrass band fronted by a twangy, country-flavored male. ~ Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr.

Dirty Linen (p.44) - "RIPE adds to the canon with a rich, all-original mix of bluegrass traditions and modern sensibilities....A solid ensemble sound..."

Jack Casady first came to fame as an original member of the Jefferson Airplane and later, Hot Tuna. The first solo album (at age 59) from this well-traveled and prolific bassist, Dream Factor, is a mixed affair. Unlike most rock bass-playing frontmen, Casady does not sing, so his contributions to his debut are relegated to the occasional bass solo, and as co-writer of nearly all the tracks. His bass playing is more innovative and inspirational than his songwriting, which results in a passable Southern rock, folk, and blues album. Casady calls in friends from Gov't Mule (drummer Matt Abts and guitarist Warren Haynes), along with Little Feat guitarist Paul Barrére, ...

Though its cover art and title allude to Legend (1978), Poco's only real blockbuster album and last of any true merit, Running Horse, reaches back no further than the group's last studio album, 1989's Legacy, a cobbled together reunion album produced in part by Richard Marx.

Arthur Conley Soul Directions CD  (1968)

Ripe album
CD $10.45  Audio Samples
Months after his tragic and untimely passing, Otis Redding remained a primary source of inspiration to the career of vocalist Arthur Conley. Soul Directions -- which was issued during the late spring of 1968 -- was the artist's third long-player, and while the bulk of the ten-track effort was produced by the legendary Tom Dowd, it is highlighted by two of the last tunes that Redding worked on with Conley, albeit behind the scenes. All the more profound is the gospel-tinged centerpiece, a touching paean simply titled "Otis Sleep On." Although Conley had formidable success recording at Fame in Muscle Shoals, AL, and Stax Records, it was the latter's rival -- the Memphis-based American Studios -- where the project primarily came together. The team of Spooner Oldham and Dan Penn provide the midtempo opener, "You Really Know How to Hurt ...

Prophetionals Kwik2hearslow2speak CD  (2008)

Ripe CD music
CD $14.79
Merriam-Webster defines music as: the science or art of ordering tones or sounds in succession, in combination, and in temporal relationships to produce a composition having unity and continuity. This source also defines prophet as: an effective or leading spokesman for a cause, doctrine, or group. If you combine the definition it reads: An effective spokesman for the doctrine of ordering tones or sounds in succession, in combination and in temporal relationships to produce a composition having unity and continuity. Let's term this new definition 'The Prophetionals'. The Prophetionals haven't recreated the wheel. They have just found a way to improve it. Music was in the earth before man was on the earth. Therefore, to say 'The Prophetionals' are creating something new would be artificial. However, we can say that their innovation is official. Clever, creative, and direct are three words that come to mind when hearing this trio composed of Elisha, Mark the Prophetional, and SWORD. The three MC crew is from Columbus, Ohio and is produced by Mark the Prophetional. 'The Pros', as they are also known, just plain represent. We can make this bio sound corporate friendly, but what's the point? These brothers have clearly been given authority of music. Their ability to give us listeners what we need and want are incredible. It feels like they had an opportunity to see our core and produced the substance needed to satisfy it.

'Kwiktohearslowtospeak' is their freshman project. However, you won't believe it. Merriam-Webster describes it best in its musical definition, '!to produce a composition having unity and continuity.

' When measuring 'The Pros' to this statement, we almost feel they are under represented. You can't tell whether the production gave birth to the MC or the MC gave birth to the production. One thing is for sure, they have all been birthed ...
