| | Bill Williams Handful CD Bill Williams Discography of CDs
Bill Williams landed in the Washington, DC area, sliding straight onto stage right, some two decades ago, Since then, Bill has stirred the souls of DC-metro roots-rock aficionados with his versatile instrumental work and lock-tight vocal harmonies ... Full Descriptionin several Wammie-winning, club-packing ensembles. “Handful” is Bill’s first solo effort, showcasing not only his considerable talents, but those of several of his longtime co-conspirators from Last Train Home, Kevin Johnson and the Linemen, and the Grandsons. Arriving in the DC area in the mid-80's, Bill split his time (and, at times, personality) between his own pop-rock band the InVoices, and the award-winning a cappella group The Tone Rangers. These early exploits brought him into contact with a circle of like-minded friends that include Kevin Johnson, Eric Brace, Scott McKnight and other DC-area notables. Bill was one of the charter members of Kevin Johnson and the Linemen in the early-90s. His guitar work, harmonies and songwriting were featured prominently on Johnson's "Memphis for Breakfast," "Rest of Your Life," “Purple Album,” and “Parole Music” releases; “Rest of Your Life” scored a 1995 Best Recording Wammie. During his tenure with the Linemen, Bill worked closely with Eric Brace as he developed and refined an assembly of tunes and talents that ultimately became Last Train Home — another winner of several Wammies. Bill’s decade-long association with LTH inspired some of the finest noises of his career. His songwriting, instrumental and vocal talents can be heard throughout LTH releases "Last Train Home," "True North," "Holiday Limited," "Travelogue," "Tributaries," "Time and Water," and "Bound Away." Bill's recorded work has also included cameo appearances with DC's Grandsons on "Party with the Rich," and with other great performers on “Americana Motel” a collection of top Americana Artists, doing new versions of each other's songs. His melancholy rendition of Neil Young’s “Flying on the Ground is Wrong” is featured on “Five Way Street: A Tribute to Buffalo Springfield” a must-hear for devoted Springfield buffs. In recent years, Bill has been spotted lending an occasional guitar-slinging hand to Virginia-based One Horse Town. Bill is currently a lead guitarist and backing vocalist in the stable of Little Pink, fronted by the extraordinarily talented DC singer-songwriter Mary Battiata. "Handful," is a collection of work drawing on his broad range and diverse background including original rock, pop, and bluegrass compositions. Scott McKnight, along with Naughty Pine's bassist, Tony Flagg, and drummer, Steve Woerhle, provide the bulk of the musical support to this CD. Also featured is the stellar playing of the Grandsons' Chris Watling (saxophone, accordion) and Last Train Home's Dave Van Allen (pedal steel), among others.

Handful songs
$11.39 This is the second release from Montoya to pass through my hands. The first didn't inspire me to really write anything, and was relegated to our Bargain Basement where it met with similar shrugs from the CO South music team."Little Maniac" has changed my opinion of this duo of Peruvian immigrants. As of this writing, it is IMHO, the most unique and original song of the album. It's dark and urgent. Synthy, but not New Wave. The lyrics tell of a man's obedience to a dominating woman. He bows his head in obeisance, but wishes the leash were a little longer. The music aptly captures his total compliance to and overwhelming obsession with this imposing woman. Par Excellence!But one song doesn't carry an album. A more understated assortment of tracks follows that contains a fire of slow-burning embers. If there's an overall aspect of Montoya to be impressed with, it's evident in the fact that they have managed to synthesize something from nearly every aspect of 40 years of American Rock & Roll and Folk. On "Slow Fade to Black" they show their immigrant colors with a hearty Latin beat and organ accompaniment. "Que Pasa Chichi?" has a low-slung and dirty-rock'n attitude one might expect to come blaring out of a Cheech Marin low-rider. "Stranded", the very next ...

Handful songs
$14.79 Ellsworth is a songwriter/singer/performer. He has been writing songs and performing with his band, as a duo or a solo artist since the ‘70’s. But he never made an album until 1999 when he and longtime partner Phil Hicks released their debut acoustic, country/blues record, Ask Around. It was selected as a finalist in the 2000 Crossroads Music Awards. Why did the first album take so long when he had so many songs under his belt? “I think I was one of those crazy people that just thought the world would find me if I was good enough” he says. “People always loved my songs in clubs and I thought that sooner or later something would happen…or maybe I was just waiting for the turn of the century”. Bands came and went but the consistent thing was always the songs. They come from that place down inside where things mingle and grind for months or even years before making an appearance. Like the old Blues and Country guys who sang because they had to, Ellsworth lets you know right up front that he has to. His newest CD, "American Compost" is a smart, rockin' romp down the Great American Rock & Roll Superhighway; a dynamic array of tunes that demand attention from the first note with razor-sharp lyrics and driving beats. Turn up the volume and get ready to ride. It's a gem of an album that draws inspiration from the many light and dark enclaves of our shared musical terrain. With it's raw passion left in the mix, the songs are urgent and vital. "...an absolute blinder of an album" - Helen Purves, Rawkstar.netBesides songwriting and performing, Ellsworth began producing music shows around the New York and New England area. His summertime Sunset Music Series on “the barge” in Brooklyn’s Redhook has become one of the coolest, sought after gigs in NYC. He also produces the Bull Run Concert Series at the Bull Run Restaurant in Massachusetts where he brings in “All the great performers I admired growing up.” This gave him the opportunity to meet and share the stage with some giants like Leon Russell, Levon Helm, Graham Parker, Maria Muldaur and Johnny Winter.Some of Ellsworth’s highly original songs have been featured on radio, internet and feature films. “The Moon is a Faithless Lover” was in Ghetto Dawg with Drena DeNiro and Gianna Palminteri. And “The Things I Gotta Do to Stay Alive - Are Killing Me” was in The Clinic, an independent film that ...

Handful album
$14.99 Zona Tango is the electrotango project led by the Argentine composer and multinstrumentalist Pedro Menéndez (keyboards, bandoneon, guitar, flute, sax, trombone, voice and composition).Year 2004 - after a long stay in Spain and France featuring music of his own and performing traditional tango on festivals and milongas- Pedro Menéndez, wellknown for an unique trayectory of restless quests on tango and Argentina folk music, came back to Buenos Aires feeling the need to experiment and go beyond the fusion of modern tango and electronic sounds adding elements of jazz, latin and afro-american rythms, creating music using a varied and not very conventional instrumentation. At that moment he joined bandoneonist Oscar Fasanelli and Maurice Lévar (electronics) and finally the first CD of ‘Zona Tango’: ‘Electrónico’ was born.As a reflect of the evolution of urban cosmopolitan music, and without leaving the first ‘Electronico’ project by an intense live activity, on the beginning of May 2006 Zona Tango released his second discographic work introducing to the world the first revolutionare mixture between electrotango and bossa nova: ‘BrazilTango’, ...
