This 3rd RJ album brings the band's diverse American roots into a solid blues focus with the addition of Johnnie Johnson on seven cuts, who writes three of them, including the sublime mood of "Johnnie's Idea" and the classic stroll of "Slow Drag" It also features a cameo by east coast R & B diva, Rahni Raines, and at times, the full three-man New Orleans-style horn section that the band features at their Mardi Gras Mambofest performances: Rob Sudduth (tenor sax - Huey Lewis, Amos Garrett), Ed Early (trombone - Albert King), and Michael Peloquin (bari sax). With six other originals mostly by lead vocalist/bassist Tim Eschliman (Commander Cody, Etta James), an Irma Thomas classic, a New Orleans brass band romp and a Pinetop Smith Boogie Woogie, a full palette of top shelf rhythm & blues is delivered on this recording - topped off by drummer Jimmy Sanchez's crazed full- bore second line deviation, "Mighty Fine Day." Also appearing are Caroline Dahl, Stevie Gurr, Anthony Paule and Steve Freund. Total Running Time: 56 minutes. (blues, funk, New Orleans, rhythm & blues, swing, rockabilly) Songs: "Mighty Fine Day" "Jet Stream" "Slow Drag" "Take It Easy" "Headin' Home" "Kidd Jordan's Second Line" "Blues Hotel" "That Was Then, This Is Now" "Johnnie's Idea" "Twilight Blue" "Somebody Told You" "Boogie Woogie" Reviews may be found: http://rhythmtown-jive.com/reviews.html#MAINSTEM Artist Home Page: http://www.rhythmtown-jive.com, http://rhythmtown-jive.com/mainstem.html, http://www.rhythmtown-jive.com/retailOutlets.html, http://www.globerecords.com/VideoClips.html#RJ, http://www.rhythmtown-jive.com/live.shtml, https://geo.music.apple.com/us/album/on-the-main-stem/21407023?mt=1&app=itunes&at=11laEk ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VOICES IN MY HEAD (Genre Whiplash) by Back pOrchEstra: new LP (GLOBE RECORDS #GLO-050_LP, released in USA, 2023) 12 Description: New Release! 2023 Vinyl LP release. Original and vintage Roots Rock, Americana, Country Blues, Singer/Songwriter, Western Swing and Cajun music with rich acoustic tones... Top 100 Album of 2022 at Alt. Country Specialty Chart. Born out of the pandemic, connecting a vast group of talent not usually available. A shelter-in-Place-inspired musical outfit befitting the newfound minimalism of the times... back to the basics. Formed for the first time in the locked-down summer of 2020, they were born out of live streaming episodes that lead to outdoor performances and a recent foray into the Big-Pink-style living room recording facilities of Globe Records (as also utilized in the recent New Copasetics release).

Produced by Tim Eschliman. Recorded at Global Mobile, Napa County, CA. Cover Art: Katie Kincade Designs. Manufactured in the Nerherlands. "...excellent album ...has roots in country and blues but zigzags all over the musical map, evokes artists from multiple decades over the last century and embraces everything from indie-rock and Americana to Celtic, Motown, and Western swing. If you need a reference point, look to Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks and Asleep at the Wheel, whose records also draw on disparate sources." - Jeff Burger, Americana Highways, TheAquarian.com. "...everything from alt. rock to cajun, to country, to Brownie Ford era-Western Swing. But the thing that keeps this set together is their excellent songwriting full of smooth never-miss-a-beat lines and vivid imagery. It's a studio album but it sure does have a back porch jam band feel to it" - Calvin Powers, americanamusicshow.com, WHUP-FM (4 songs in rotation) (Roots Rock, Americana, Singer/songwriter, country blues, western swing, cajun, folk, acoustic, pop) Songs: "Just Fall In Love (remix)" "If I Ever See You Again (remix)" "Might Hafta Go After It" "Allons-A-Lafayette" "I Believe I Belong" "Goin' Down The Road Feelin' Bad" "Goin' to New York" "My Last Dime (I Miss My Country) (remix)" "(Take Me Back To The) Wide Open Places" "Star Of The County Down" "Heart Of Gold" Artist Home Page: http://www.backPorchEstra.com, https://backporchestra.bandcamp.com/album/voices-in-my-head-genre-whiplash, https://www.facebook.com/BackPorchEstra, https://www.instagram.com/backporchestra, https://www.twitter.com/BackEstra ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VOICES IN MY HEAD (Genre Whiplash) by Back pOrchEstra: new USB (GLOBE RECORDS #GLO-050_USB, released in USA, 2022) 13.75 Description: USB version.

Be the 1st to receive this new format. Limited quantity. USB Music Card with "Christmas On The Moon" single plus the Live From The West Pole album and album covers, liner notes, tasting notes. ...Billionaires in Space? An ever-warming planet? Holidays approaching too fast? Where's this all headed? "Christmas On The Moon!" ...The Christmas Jug Band explores the rocket-fueled elitist escapism mindset... The Futurism of humanity explored by the organic, rural, ancientistic sounds of the crude Americana Roots explorers, the Christmas Jug Band. -This new single delves into that contrast with robotish Devo-like single-note-chord roots rock and a very human, gospel-influenced verse feel that climaxes with a solo section of a Moog Theremin synth sandwiched between 2 very rich acoustic violin and piano passages. Perhaps it's all a metaphor for the likely mixed emotions of actually leaving Terra Firma. With Austin deLone, Tim Eschliman, Paul Rogers, Duke Dagreez Dewey, Snakebite Jacobs, Candy Girard, Willy Jordan and Isaac Carter. The Live From The West Pole album is a live recording from December of 2018 in the Village where it all began...Mill Valley, California. ...deep in the snow drifts of the West Pole. The kings of 100% acoustic folk-skiffle-swing holiday highjinks deliver their first album of all new material since 2009 continuing their penchant for original holiday raucous jugbandizations and parodies of unlikely classics.

It has taken a very long time and I'm happy to get it recorded. The scene was the Sunbanks Festival in beautiful Electric City, Washington, on the shores of the Grand Coulee in front of thousands of culture lovers, on Saturday, September 8, 2018. No frills, no overdubs, nothing fancy, just four like minded reprobates doing what we do best: playing their hearts out and creating good time rock and roll music. Tim Eschliman and I have been working together, on and off, playing and producing for 40 years. He plays bass and sings a lot in this band. Sean Allen, western swing hall of famer and pedal steel whiz plays the electric guitar in this group and sings a lot of the songs on this album. Steve Barbuto is the drummer, here been backing the Commander Cody groups for going on 25 years and sings Don't Let Go for the first time live.. I think this is the best album I've done in 45 years and I hope you'll agree... just basic rock and roll from the ozone.

"Truck and a Radio" marks a new approach to the band's presentation of material. This new album sets the songs on a bare bones, primitive palette; no elaborate arrangements, soloists, backing vocals or any additional instrumentation. The pure sound of guitar, bass & drums leave only the heart of rock & roll to fuel the material, letting the songs stand on their own merit. This also allows the band to give the audience a true reflection of a live performance. Recorded by Tim Eschliman for Globe Records, it brings Transistor Rodeo back home to the label that helped launch Dave Erdmann's songwriting passion over two decades ago. Truck And A Radio is unique in the band's catalog of releases, inspired by the likes of BUDDY HOLLY and THE CLASH bringing simplicity to the material. This album brings together the guitar stylings and prolific somgwriting of David Erdmann and his close-knit rhythm section, Sean Brown on bass and Steve Bryant on drums. It was mixed by four-time Emmy award winner Dana Kirkpatrick & mastered by Rob Beaton who started at the famed Record Plant Studios in Sausalito. Between Tim, Dana & Rob the "balance" of the album sits where it should, letting the songs do the talking. Sit back & listen to the music produced by the restless imagination of this musical storyteller.

Vernazza has spent decades on stages big and small around the world, honing his craft and this album is the culmination of that experience.

Ably backed by bassist Jim Reeves, drummer Brian Cantrell and keyboardist Mark Bentley, the album's 14 tracks cover a lot of ground. Indeed, Vernazza may be considered to be one of the finest blues and slide guitar players going today,but his sound is expansive. As detailed his blues varies, from the sweet soul edge of "Open The Door" to high octane rocker "Jungle," the latter a sure fire single surely destined to be much covered in the future. While the albums core group are all seasoned veterans, Vernazza also called in a few friends to help in the albums creation, with Elvin Bishop, Charlie Daniels and Albert Lee all contributing to Lions and Thieves.

The leadoff tune, 'London Blues' is a seldom heard tune, in spite of the fact that documents show 59 recordings since it was written in 1923. The second and third tunes showcase the excellent vocal style of Jane Campedelli. From the hard driving arrangement of 'Black Bottom Stomp' to the superb rendition of the blues 'Skit Dat De Dat' this is traditional jazz at its best.

He was a regular on network radio, and he made more than 100 issued recordings.

He was leading a popular orchestra at the Everglades, a restaurant on 46th Street and Broadway, in New York City. It was with this band that Candullo made his first recordings, on February 23, 1926. By April 1927, Joe Candullo and His Everglades Orchestra were making their first radio broadcasts over WMCA, in New York.

They wrote three songs, including the title track, "Let's Dance". Gator Beat fans will immediately recognize the sound which distinguishes this band from all the others. It's got that good time vibe throughout and the players keep the energy going, driven by Beau Bradbury's "on top of his game" drumming. David Scott, longtime GB sax man, hits his stride and blows the lid off Clifton Chenier's "Ride 'Em Cowboy". Willard Blackwell digs deep and comes up with his best vocals to date, crooning on GB original "Just An Angel" and delivering a knockout punch on Jon Cleary's "C'mon Second Line". The band is running on all cylinders on USS Zydecoldsmobile with guitar man Randy Quan in the driver's seat. It closes out with Randy's original cut which is not only beautiful and groovy, it has Gator Beat written all over it. Cutting a new CD takes what is already there and bumps it up a notch. This time, it was a big bump.

His many recordings (beginning with Gennett in 1924) and his frequent radio broadcasts made him one of the most recognized bandleaders in the country. His ability to perform popular sweet numbers as effectively as his hot dance tunes made him a favorite among wide audiences, from the 1920s to the 1940s. This collection of recordings has been selected from the best of his Brunswick and Victor sessions, which were released under the name of Bernie Cummins and His Orchestra, Bernie Cummins and His Rose Room Orchestra and Bernie Cummins and His New York Biltmore Orchestra.

Willis's fourth CD is a moving musical tribute to two founding fathers of American music, Robert Johnson and Hank Williams. Thirty years in the making, Taproot goes to the heart of Country and Blues roots, delivering truly original and inspired interpretations of classics. From the rocking boogie of Johnson's "Preachin' Blues" and "Last Fair Deal" to the heartbreaking intimacy of Williams' "Mansion On the Hill," Willis, a veteran bluesman with incredible vocal range and stylistic maturity, makes an important and memorable contribution to Robert Johnson's and Hank Williams' songbooks. "...one of the most sought-after blues pianists; he covers different styles with aplomb, comps like a master, and bangs out a mean solo." ---Blues Review #84.

Of course the serious collectors of this type of music will know most of these bands. Although, even the serious collector might find the Johnny McGee theme with his excellent trumpet work new to them. Regarding Johnny McGee & His Orchestra, he made thirty two recordings for the Varsity label between February and June of 1940 yet, the Rust discography of American Dance Bands does not mention the band. Lords Discography does show two tune which are probably considered the bands' jazz sides. There is no question this was a quality band. While the Larry Clinton theme Dipsy Doodle, is well known, it is interesting to know that he never recorded the tune, and the broadcast version included here with vocal by Bea Wain, is the only time she ever sang this tune. Ben Pollack's theme, Song of the Islands, heard here, with the superb clarinet solo by Irving Fazola, is actually the recording that first brought the name of Fazola to prominence. Prior to that he was known almost exclusively in the New Orleans area. If you give a close listen the superb style of Fazola, it is easy to hear why he was the major influence on the musician Pete Fountain. One can almost hear Fazola on some of Fountain's popular recordings. Much has been said and written about how Benny Goodman as a leader in breaking down racial barriers in the music business and all of these are legitimate, but we should not forget other white band leaders who even before Goodman were also making giant strides to break the racial barriers. For example, give a listen to the Leo Reichman band theme. This white band chose a superb black trumpet player by the name of Bubber Miley who was feature soloist on many of the bands best recordings. Willie Bryant was not a musician although as a boy attempted to learn the trumpet. He was however, an accomplished dancer and vocalist in addition to being intelligent, witty and debonair. Although not a musician, he formed a band in 1934 for an engagement at the Savoy Ballroom in Harlem. On his theme heard here, listen for the Teddy Wilson piano and Cozy Cole choke that cymbal.(Artists: a- Van Alexander; b- Don Bestor; c- Will Bradley; d- Willie Bryant' e- Billy Butterfield; f- Bob Chester; g- Larry Clinton; h- Jack Denny; i- Benny Goodman; j- Jerry Gray; k- Mal Hallett; l- Woody Herman; m- Ina Ray Hutton Melodears; n- Isham Jonesl o- Dick Jurgens; p- Hal Kemp; q- Andy Kirk; r- Bert Lown; s- Johnny McGee; t- Glenn Miller; u- Russ Morgan; v- Ben Pollack; w- Joe Reichman; x- Leo Reichman; y- Artie Shaw; z- Chick Webb) (BIG BAND, SWING, TRAD JAZZ ) Songs: "Alexander's Swinging (a))" "Contented (b)" "Fatal Fascination (c)" "It's Over Because We're Through (d)" "What's New (e)" "Starburst (f)" "Dipsy Doodle (g) " "Under The Stars (h)" "Let's Dance (i)" "Desert Serenade (j)" "The Boston Tea Party (k)" "Blue Flame (l)" "Melodear Swing (m)" "You're Just A Dream Come True (n)" "Day Dreams Come True At Night (o)" "How I'll Miss You, When the Summer Is Gone (p)" "Until The Real Thing Comes Along (q)" "Bye Bye Blues (r)" "Just For Awhile (s)" "Moonlight Serendade (t)" "Does You're Heart Beat For Me (u)" "Song Of The Islands (v)" "Pagliacci (w)" "What Is This Thing Called Love (x)" "Nightmare (y)" "Let's Get Together (z)" Artist Home Page: https://geo.music.apple.com/us/album/band-theme-songs-rare-famous/564018600?mt=1&app=music&at=11laEk ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cowboy- Piano Variations On a Southwestern Theme by Tim Gorman: New CD / DVD (TAYMUSIC #TAY3643_CD, released in USA, 2008) $10.00 Description: 2-CD set: Live performance audiophile 96K/24 Bit Digital Two-Track recording (CD and also an Audiophile DVD copy of this same album) of Tim Gorman piano music by Timtone Productions.

"Mozart on the Road" is a richer and more polished effort than his first CD, "Child is Father to the Man". It starts off with a new version of "I Can't Stick Around to Take the Fall" (an outlaw song with a postgraduate degree) makes stops at an anti-war hootenanny and the 60's psychedelic Haight-Ashbury, and concludes with "Mozart on the Road", an epic and comically surreal retelling of the young Mozart's peregrinations through Europe in 1762, all to a driving rock beat. Born in New York State an hour's drive north of New York City, Winston Montgomery made the pilgrimage to San Francisco during the summer after the "Summer of Love" and has never left "the cool grey city of love". He made his living for 25 years renovating houses, among them many of the multi-hued Victorian edifices that San Francisco is famous for. After a stint of singing lead in a band and writing songs 30 years ago he has started writing again, playing at clubs with his four piece band, The Tall Boys. (Rock, Americana, Folk) Songs: "Mozart On The Road " "Sunset Girl" "You Can't Take It With You (So You'd Better Have It Here)" "I Can't Stick Around to Take the Fall" "Why Do Mothers Cry?" "The Mountain and the Valley and the River and the Lake" "I Like Lunch" "Momma's Tattoo" "Brave Little Billy Brewster" "It's So Nice to See" Artist Home Page: http://www.wmontgomerysongs.com/, http://www.myspace.com/winstonmontgomery ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Missing Moonlighters - Live / Studio Closet Tapes by Moonlighters: new 2-CD (GLOBE RECORDS #GLO-037_CD, released in USA, 2008) $12.75 Description: 2-CD set ($17.98 list). All previously unreleased tracks from the band that was led by Bill Kirchen and "moonlighted" from Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen... later to become his backing group. This release presents for the first time many popular mainstays of the live shows as well as some seldom heard, experimental studio recordings. These songs represent the early "Rhythm & Western" sound of the group as well as the later four-man, skinny-tie, rock/pop outfit. These recordings have a live-ness and songwriting that's missing from the two previous releases. Featuring Bill Kirchen, Tony Johnson, Richard Casanova (George Strait), Steve Mackay (Iggy Pop), Steve Fishell (Emmy Lou Harris), Don Kennedy, Rick Higginbotham, Tim Eschliman (Rhythmtown-Jive), Austin de Lone (Eggs Over Easy) with special guests Mark Karan (Ratdog) and James Henry. The live CD includes essential tunes that were staples of the band's live shows but didn't appear on the 2 previously existing releases, like Carl Perkins' "Boppin' the Blues," a few Rockpile numbers and the bands traditional rave-up set-closer, Warren Smith's "Ubangi Stomp." 3 songs from the early "Rhythm & Western" days of the band are included: the Cajun fiddling of "Mississippi Sawyer," "Big Mamou" which featured the 3-man section of fiddle, tenor sax & pedal steel and the sassy "Sittin' On Top Of The World," which adds to that section Bill Kirchen's wild trombone. Live recordings are also from Keystone Palo Alto, The Saddlerack (KFAT Fat-Fry), Keystone Berkeley, and Rohan's Rockpile. The studio CD, on the other hand, brings to light a more experimental side of the band. Three of the tracks were recorded live to 4-track in an afternoon as a pre-production session at Different Fur Studios in San Francisco and when heard by Austin's friend Nick Lowe, led to the arrangements for the recording of the Moonlighter's "Rush Hour" album, which Nick produced in London. Many of the other tracks are song demos of originals by drummer Tony Johnson or bassist Tim Eschliman, and several of those were recorded at Tim and Austin de Lone's at-the-time home studio, the earliest iteration of Globe Studios. Although not all of these recordings were Moonlighter projects per se, they happened to have been recorded by the band members and in some cases led to additions to the band's set lists. Studio recordings are also from Sonoma Recorders and Prairie Sun. Mastered by Fred Catero, Tim Eschliman and Tony Johnson. Packaged in all-recyclable mini-double jacket format. (rock, pop, rockabilly, Americana) Songs: "Mississippi Sawyer" "Boppin' The Blues" "Hamburger Man" "Big Mamou" "Flat Tiyo" "Let It Rock" "When I Write The Book" "High Blood Pressure" "They Called It Rock" "Sittin' On Top Of The World" "Oh,What A Thrill" "Ubangi Stomp" "Have You Heard About The Man" "Dream Lover" "Seven Nights To Rock" "I Can't Stop Eating" "Midnight In Memphis" "All Tore Up" "Worthy Of The Second Step" "Outer Limits" "Lunch Time" "The Day I Throw My Phone Away" "True Love" "Big Noise In The Neighborhood" "The Angels Listened In" Artist Home Page: http://www.globerecords.com/moonlighters, http://www.myspace.com/moonies, https://geo.music.apple.com/us/album/the-missing-moonlighters-live-studio-closet-tapes/271860227?mt=1&app=itunes&at=11laEk ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What's The Rush? by The Reptile Brothers: new CD (ONE UVA KIND #OUK1151_CD, released in USA, 2008) $10.00 Description: Big Sale!

Reissue of Columbia sides from 1954-1955. Many of these recordings haven't been available since they were first released on 78s. These recordings were instrumental in launching Mahalia Jackson to international fame. Though she had already been a popular figure on the black gospel circuit for some time, these mid-1950s sessions, with their tight, professional arrangements and high-quality production, were the first to bring her to the attention of white America. Standards such as "Walk All Over God's Heaven," "You'll Never Walk Alone," and "Didn't It Rain," with their simple yet effective piano and organ accompaniment, allow her formidable voice to soar in a way that would soon become familiar to a worldwide audience.

He has had the opportunity to work with Bo Diddley, Eddie Money, Steve Cropper, Big Joe Turner, Mary Wells and Sir Mac Rice (the man that penned "Mustang Sally" and "Respect Yourself"). "A rootsy affair that touches on blues, Tex-Mex, and jazz, former Dynatones' guitarist Dunn delivers wonderfully tailored tunes that manage to highlight his ultra-hip, yet ultra-musical guitar playing. His bluesy, organic phrasing deftly mixes in slick modal flavorings (from Santana to Robben Ford), and his ability to outline a tangy, twisting chord progression- on the album's title track for instance- without going into chromatic la-la land is a real treat, as are his velvety octave licks. Dunn leans on spanky, mildly overdriven single-coil tones for the most part, but the album's last three cuts feature Dunn's formidable acoustic chops. Good tunes and killer playing. What's not to like." -Darrin Fox, Guitar Player Magazine, 4/08 (blues, rhythm & blues) Songs: "Deliver the Fool" "Oil Town Angel" "If It Wasn't for You" "Long Stemmed Roses" "One of These Days" "Where's That Sweetheart" "Another Day Slips Away" "I Got Lucky" "Hurricane" "Debbie's Song" Artist Home Page: http://www.larrydunnmusic.net/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rare And Personal by Sylvester Ahola: NEW CD (Vintage Music #VMP0211_CD, released in USA, 2007) 14.25 Description: [1924-1931] Sylvester Ahola- Trumpet, Mellophone, Drums.

They returned to New York sometime in 1928 with the name The Missourians and vocalist Lockwood Lewis and became the house band at the Savoy.

Farlow and Rich Kirch. The bold, soulful lyrics and screaming harmonica of Farlow, coupled with the wailing electric guitar riffs of Kirch create a driving rhythmic force that interweaves an eclectic blend of traditional blues and Southern-fried rockabilly, celebrating Americana roots styles with foot-stomping vigor. Farlow is noted for his nine-year career as Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen's frontman and harmonica player, responsible for penning several of their hits. Kirch's credits include a 13-year career as the late John Lee Hooker's lead guitarist and band leader. The two musical veterans honed their chops in the '60s and '70s hotbeds of blues revived Chicago and Detroit, emulating such legends as Howlin' Wolf, Hound Dog Taylor, and James Cotton and collaborating with such masters as John Lee Hooker, Sippie Wallace, Big Joe Williams, Junior Wells, and Charlie Musselwhite, among other greats: from Chuck Berry to Eric Clapton. Both artists boast lengthy discographies and worldwide touring acclaim. Alligator Crawl is the duo's first collaborative effort featuring renegade Billy C. originals and Kirch's electric savvy.

Featuring Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller and Jimmy McPartland. With Miff Mole, Joe Venuti, Carl Kress, Johnny Marvin and Chauncey Morehouse. In all, the All Star Orchestra made 18 recordings, from December 1927 to November 1929. Of these, 16 were released. While jazz enthusiasts will find much that is significant in these recordings, there are two which stand out above the others. These are the recordings of 'I'm More Than Satisfied' and 'Oh, Baby!' Both were recorded on March 21, 1928. The session was Benny Goodman's first, in New York. It was also the very first time that Benny Goodman recorded with Tommy Dorsey. At first glance, the band's name might appear to be just another case of over-used hyperbole. Except among those who were most acquainted with the band's members, this might have seemed the case, even in 1928 and 1929. But looking back, today, we know that Nat Shilkret kept the band true to its name. For it was, in fact, an All Star Orchestra. (Personnel: Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, Glenn Miller, Jimmy McPartland, Miff Mole, Joe Venuti, Carl Kress, Johnny Marvin, Chauncey Morehouse). (BIG BAND, SWING, TRAD JAZZ ) Songs: "Who-oo?

The first of a trilogy, this (perhaps justifiably) paranoia-fueled near-future fantasy/thriller, derived from the latest political and technological trends, serves as the debut of an author who lives "off the grid" and will speak to the public only through e-mail or a voice scrambler and satellite phone. The story opens by introducing Maya, a Harlequin: a warrior trained from childhood to protect the enlightened beings known as Travelers from the Tabula. The Tabula are the secret masters of the Vast Machine, the intricate web of surveillance and bureaucracy that controls the world population. The psychic abilities of and the social movements instigated by Travelers tend to disrupt that absolute, rigid control. Today, the Travelers and their guardians verge on extinction. Maia herself has rejected her heritage for the past three years, living a regular life and attempting to block out the memories of her last, disastrous Harlequin assignment. But now Maia's wheelchair-bound father, Thorn, has forced his daughter back into the fold, directing her to protect two newly emerged Travelers under threat from the massive, menacing resources of the Tabula.

The new CD is (of course) infused with TDA's easygoing humor and wry take on the world with (gasp!) even a bit of heartwarming sentiment stirred into the eclectic musical melting pot. "Lawnball" also finds the band breaking out of the ''all accordions, all the time" mode with a few special guest spots: Bay Area artists lending a hand include Nik Phelps (trumpet) and Jim Rothermel (clarinet). While accordions are still undeniably the name of the game on "Lawnball," the additional instruments are a happy addition to the sonic mix; bandleader Paul Rogers couldn't resist sprinkling in some piano and acoustic guitar as well. Classic rockers Edgar Winter and Led Zeppelin get the nod this time around for TDA's twisted cover treatment, with a blistering version of Winter's "Frankenstein" and a wailing medley of Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" and "Black Dog" rounding out the record. The Zeppelin medley features new band member Susie Davis on lead vocals. She is a veteran of the rock arenas, with an impressive list of major tours to her credit, including stints with Sheila E, Mick Jagger, Daryl Hall, Pat Benatar and Melissa Etheridge. TDA also welcomes vocalist/accordionist Carri Abrahms into the fold on "Lawnball." Her credits include the San Francisco Symphony Choir as well as a tour of duty with San Francisco-based band Rosin Coven.

Take a far out ride through the 60s and early 70s with the Edlos. There are some very clever adaptations of songs we have never heard arranged a cappella before such as Jethro Tull's "Aqualung", Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit", Led Zeplin's "Stairway to Heaven" (all 6 minutes of it) and - would you believe - "Tequila", trumpets and all? There are also a couple of a cappella standards done with a twist such as "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" (they call it "Wimoweh"). "Hurdy Gurdy Man" is sung employing a vocal technique explored in the Baroque period called "hocket" according to the liner notes. It's a very interesting choice because it almost sounds like an exaggerated version of Donovan's own style. There are not a lot of slick production techniques or effects used on this CD, but there are very creative a cappella arrangements of some pop classics. (acapella, rock, soul, rhythm & blues) Songs: "Tequila" "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" "It's a Beautiful Morning" "Scarborough Fair/Canticle" "You're My Soul & Inspiration" "Unchained Melody" "Something" "Come Together" "Aqualung" "White Rabbit" "Hurdy Gurdy Man" "Stairway to Heaven" Artist Home Page: http://www.mascot2.com/edlos/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- San Francisco Bay's Best Blues by Various Artists: NEW CD (RAW RECORDS #RAW404_CD, released in USA, 2003) $10.00 Description: Performers include: Daniel Castro, Larry Dunn, Garth Webber, Mike Schermer, Damien Masterson, David Matthews, Sugar Pie De Santo, Anthony Paul, LZ Phoenix, David Landon, Angela Strehli, Michael Peloquin, Rhythmtown Jive, Kaye Bohler, Mark Hummel, Blue Monday, John Lee Sanders.

Sly & the Family Stone) and Arjan MacNamara, who know the idiosyncrasies of capturing acoustic eccentricities better than anyone.

There are also special guest appearances by Norton Buffalo (doing the Marx Brothers classic "I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas"), Texas blues master Angela Strehli, Bay Area favorite, Maria Muldaur (both on "Boogie Woogie Santa Claus"), and the great powerhouse soul-gospel of Mike Duke (Wet Willy, Delbert McClinton) on "Silent Night". Not being of a mind to under-staff such a masterpiece, the talent roster was topped off with Dan Hick's vocal back-up quartet, "The Fabulous Opinions". The marvelous original painting cover art was commissioned of Mark Keller who has created a marvelously tired and sleepy Santa being awoken by his elves in the 11th hour of Christmas Eve in a style remindful of the great Norman Rockwell.

On "No Hats," her mostly-original debut release, she is featured on acoustic grand piano and accordion with no other accompaniment than trap drums, featuring the best of S. F. Bay Area expert sticksmen: Jimmy Sanchez (Roy Rogers, Boz Skaggs, Rhythmtown-Jive), Kent Bryson (the Johnny Nocturne Band), John Hanes (Pearl Harbour & The Explosions, Paris Slim), and Bowen Brown (Swing Session, Indigo Swing, John Lee Hooker).

Producers include: Keri, Babyface, David Foster, Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, Keith Crouch. Engineers: Paul Boutin, Keri, Harvey Mason, Jr. "He Wasn't Man Enough" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Female R&B Vocal Performance. The song was also nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best R&B Song. THE HEAT was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best R&B Album. While THE HEAT has no shortage of attention-grabbing hooks, R&B songbird Toni Braxton doesn't go for any of the grand gestures that her stardom would allow. Instead, she plays it agreeably cool, downplaying the vocal pyrotechnics that are the downfall of so many lesser R&B singers. Even Dr. Dre's guest appearance on "Just Be a Man About It" nods to the sensual recitatives and bedside manners of '70s love men like Barry White. The rapid-fire lyrics on "Maybe" are definitely informed by hip-hop vocal rhythms, but the track nevertheless retains a distinctly low-key feel. Meanwhile, the appropriately titled "Spanish Guitar" marks an interruption of the other songs' predominantly electronic textures while remaining consistent with the sensuous, romantic mood. Ultimately, The Heat is an album intended for the fireside rather than the dance floor, and as such, it finds Braxton acquitting herself admirably (rhythm & blues, Pop) Songs: "He Wasn't Man Enough" "Heat, The" "Spanish Guitar" "Just Be A Man About It" - (featuring Dr. Dre) "Gimme Some" "I'm Still Breathing" "Fairy Tale" "Art Of Love, The" "Speaking In Tongues" "Maybe" "You've Been Wrong" "Never Just For A Ring" ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Hot Dance Sides 1926 to 1930 by Nat Shilkret And His Victor Orchestra: NEW CD (Swing Time #ST9912_CD, released in USA, 2000) 14.75 Description: [1925-1930] dance band arranger/leader Shilkret is featured on tracks from 1926-30, with vocals by Johnn Marvin, Jane Green & Scrappy Lambert.
