Elaine O'Rourke > No
Beginning, No End (CD)
Compelling
and hypnotic, dark and haunting -- these are words repeatedly used
to describe Elaine O'Rourke's debut CD. O’Rourke
is an explorer who beckons you to wander, curious, beyond the
expected, beyond the comfortable conventions of modern folk
music. <artist

The Red Clay Ramblers
> Chuckin'
the Frizz (CD, DA, MP3
Singles)
Rounder mines the vault again and finally
re-issues this classic on CD. Recorded live at the original Cat's
Cradle in Chapel Hill, this is a rollicking affair, "a superior
string band at the height of its powers, spinning out traditionals
and originals with inspired, infectious fervor." -(the
Independent) <artist
page> |
Greg Brown > Yellow
Dog (CD)
"Notebook Songs Live in the Upper
Peninsula!" The beloved songwriter debuts a bouquet of new songs --
and some old favorites -- one evening at the Peterson Auditorium in
Ishpeming MI. Proceeds to benefit the area's Yellow Dog Watershed
Preserve -- all in an earth-friendly bifold digipak. <artist
page> |
Jon Shain > Army
Jacket Winter (CD, DA, MP3
Singles)
Thirteen new songs, a more progressive "songwriter"
album and a richly textured recording from the piedmont bluesman,
it is clear that
Shain has stretched his musical envelope on this album..

Round the House > Safe
Home (CD, DA, MP3
Singles)
Round the House plays
Irish traditional music, including dance tunes (reels, jigs etc) and
songs in English and Irish; their approach is a hair's
breadth away from the “pure-drop”, with a respectful nod to the
tradition; <artist
page> |
Jim Heald > Old
Jalopy (CD, DA, MP3
Singles)
Jim has been a two-time
finalist at the Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk competition. In
addition to Modern Folk, the music is an eclectic brew of
Traditional Jazz and Blues, a touch of Country, humor and faux
pop-spirituality, and Caribbean musings. <artist

DRM, Out the Door!
"Digital Rights
Management" is the name given to the born-to-lose attempt by the major
labels to "protect" their music against copying. As Steve Jobs recently pointed out, 90% of the music is
already "unprotected", on CDs, so why waste time trying to lock the cage
once the chickens are out?
Amazon is reportedly opening their own
download store in May, with all content on unprotected MP3, Just as efolkMusic
has for the PAST SEVEN YEARS. Better late than never, I
guess.

fine" 192kbps MP3s (Start by listening to streaming previews, most of ours
