Greetings,
In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <
http://www.furious.com/perfect/index1120.html>, you'll find (among other things):
RACHEL BROOKE
Country Blues - where you been, by Cat Celebrezze
"For Country Blues in contemporary action, look no further than Rachel Brooke and her newest solo album, The Loneliness in Me. It’s a record with a sound reminiscent of the Golden Age of Nashville yet delivered with a decidedly 21st century sensibility.
The songs, twelve in all, are meditations on the wild strangeness of loss - losing love and the familiar, old selves, direction, dreams. It has the beauty and charm of a shape-shifter, part classic country, part post-millennium mystic."
HEALTH AND HAPPINESS SHOW
'90's Indie Alt-Country Power Pop, by Kurt Wildermuth
"Since the mid-'80s, the Bongos' primary singer-songwriter, Richard Barone, has led a productive solo career. The other tributary from river Bongos was the Health and Happiness Show, fronted by the singer-songwriter James Mastro. In a sense, the folk-
country part of the Health and Happiness Show is mainly a matter of presentation."
We're always looking for good writers and/or ideas so let us know if you have anything to share.
See you online,
Jason
