| | Flynn, Kevin & The Avondale Ramblers The Murderer, The Thief, The Minstrels And The Rest CD Flynn, Kevin & The Avondale Ramblers Discography of CDs
'We're a Chicago-Irish band. ' That's how front man Kevin Flynn best describes the Celtic inspired sound of Kevin Flynn and The Avondale Ramblers. Based out of the Avondale neighborhood on Chicago's north side, KF & The Ramblers bring a rollicking take on Gaelic music that reflects the working-class, religious, drunken, sometimes violent (yet always somewhat beautiful) aspects of their city. Though the band's sound is steeped in the influence of traditional Irish music, their songs are anything but traditional!'We kind of look at our music the same way Led Zeppelin looked at theirs,' says Flynn. 'The basis of their sound was the blues - but they expanded on it. They took it into new and interesting areas. That's what we try to do with Celtic/Gaelic music. ' It's certainly something they accomplish. Country, folk, gospel and rock seem to meld seamlessly with their Irish tunes. The lyrical perspective is also unique: 'We're from here - so our songs are about Chicago, not Ireland,' continues Flynn. 'Instead of singing about Ireland's pubs, rolling fields and characters we sing about the Harp & Shamrock, Michigan Avenue and Mayor Daley. We don't sing with a brogue - we sing with our Midwestern accents."Along with lead singer/guitarist Kevin Flynn, the Avondale Ramblers are comprised of a stellar cast of veteran players from the Chicago music scene including members of MILLION YEN, NASH KATO BAND and MARY TYLER MORPHINE.

Dedicating one song to her late father who passed away in January 2002, Ruthie Foster's vocals mix gospel with a healthy helping of Texas blues in the vein of Bonnie Raitt or occasionally Melissa Etheridge. The mid-tempo opener, "Runaway Soul," is a solid beginning with harmonica and Hammond organ. Her softer side is also shown in some delightful ...

This is part of A&M Records "The Millenium Collection" series.
This is hardly "the best of Fairport Convention," focusing as it does on a pretty slim slice of their career. All of these ten songs were done within about a year and a half of each other between 1968 and 1970. As it happens, this is the peak of their career, and the phase that saw ...

$10.15
Shane’s history with music is vast and ecclectic, having come to its beauty through the energetic ragtime rolls of his grandfather’s antique player pianos and the soulful wail of his mother’s homespun country songs. Raised by his grandparents, during the summers in a small town in Massachussets and during the winters in a trailer park in Florida, he took to learning the guitar as a way to pass the time and make friends.As early as 12, after learning his first few chords, he began writing songs and trying to find a way to record them – settling on a very crude method of overdubs performed by using two tape recorders. This tape, while unlistenable to most sentient beings as a piece of art, shows Shane’s desire to use his music to connect with other people and examine his self in the process. This same examination of self and country folk roots finds its way into a majority of the songs of Basic Draining, most notably “Mother” and “Until You Feel”.During his teen years, ...
