5 stars Amazing guitar picker who performs with distinctive aplomb
A skillful proponent of the Kentucky thumbpicking style (aka Travis-style picking) is Eddie Pennington who also hails from the Bluegrass State. As a teenager in 1974, Pennington began visiting Mose Rager at his Drakesboro, KY. home. These 20 tracks were recorded in 1994-96. He’s a man who clearly knows how to make his Git-box sing! Pennington plays a few from Mose Rager – “Walking the Strings” and “Mose’s Blues” and “The Pig Got Up.” He also picks a few from Travis (“Information, Please” and “So Round, So Firm”). Other tunes on the project credit William Kent, John Travis, Billy Grammer, Joe Maphis, Uncle Collie Barnes, Hezekiah Jenkins, Hal Riley, his father Norman, and his brother Larry. Perhaps his most impressive technical skill on guitar is demonstrated on “John’s Smoke Turns Blue” and “Over the Rainbow” and “Stealing Time.” The former has a genesis that takes it to an uptempo dazzler that exudes contagious energy. Besides being a astonishing picker, Pennington’s baritone voice is well suited to humorous offerings like “Fertile Liza,” “The Pig Got Up,” “Information Please” and “The Panic is On.” Pennington has toured nationally as a member of the “Masters of the Steel String Guitar," showcased at the Kennedy Center and the Barns of Wolf Trap, and he received the prestigious National Heritage Fellowship in 2001 in recognition of his artistry and excellence in performing Kentucky thumbpicking-style guitar. Eddie also holds an Honorary Doctorate degree from Western Kentucky University. The National Thumbpicking Champion in 1986 and 1987, Pennington was inducted into the Thumbpickers Hall of Fame in 2003. Eddie Pennington sure knows how to tickle the strings … and he even sings. This album on the Smithsonian Folkways label is a real treat to hear in that it documents and will help spread the sound of one of American’s living national treasures. Pennington has six other projects available that were released between 1993-2000. It’s uncertain if any of the cuts on those projects duplicate those on this release. A 24-page CD booklet provides excellent notes from Joe Wilson (Director of the National Council for the Traditional Arts) and Dr. Erika Brady (Professor of Folk Studies and Anthropology at Western Kentucky University). Check out this amazing guitar picker who performs with distinctive aplomb. (Joe Ross)

A lot happened to Toby Keith between the release of this album and the previous year's UNLEASHED. The latter's "Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue" was a jingoistic, post-9/11 smash that caused much furor. A well-publicized feud with ...
Follow The Arrow
Brian Flynn Follow The Arrow CD  (2006)

Walks The Strings And Even Sings CD music
CD $16.45
Album Description: “Follow The Arrow” is an eclectic mix of genres with its own stamp of distinction. The album starts off with bluesy “No No Daddy”, in which a young daughter leaves her pastoral paradise for a life in the city. Pop ballads “Believe” and “When It Rains” alternately address themes of faith and loneliness. The humorous “Little Things Change” pokes fun at our modern habits. Rock and roll “Rough” pounds out a salute to Blue Collar Man. “Lazy Melody” has an upbeat 50s flavor, and “Take Or Leave It” is matter-of-fact and defiant. “From This World” evokes a sense of melancholy, while “Papparazzi” takes a satirical stab at the visual press. The album concludes with the soulful “Follow The Arrow”, and its own unique love song “I’ll Never Be Alone”. Bio: Brian Flynn is a singer/songwriter who performs an eclectic mix of original music ranging in style from pop, blues, rock, gospel, soul and jazz to his own distinctive vibe. Accompanying himself on the keyboard, he is compared to such artists as Billy Joel and Elton John, while certain of his tunes evoke the whimsical rhythms of Jimmy Buffet or the blue-collar ...
