Just wanted to let the guitarheads and other interested parties here know that there is a new guitar list that might appeal to you. We're talking tunings, gear, makes, myth, opinion, how to buy 'em, how we love them...like we're sitting around a camp fire trading stories.

Hi In response to the question about Shades of Black, Shades of Blue, the female performing with Richard is Teresa Williams, the wife of Larry Campbell. You can find Charles Lyonhart's version of the song on this webpage. He actually wrote the song. The song is absolutely lovely, and both versions are quite good. Perhaps one day, Charles will give us more insight into his song. http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/84/charles_lyonhart.html Larry Campbell, the producer for both versions of the song, will be producing and writing for Charles' next album which they will be recording in August.

Peace, Love, and Mischief, Vanessa, packing up her FRFF gear.

She came right out on stage and went straight into the music. I have never seen her live and I was mesmerized by her powerful, hypnotic voice! She performed a number of songs from her latest C.D. She performed a brand new song she had just written for an upcoming movie that she will be appearing in. She will be Ms. Kaplansky, a folk singer singing on a street corner. Not much of a stretch from reality as Lucy put it. She said that Dar may be written into it as well. The director had asked Lucy if she had any sad songs, so she sent him a list of like 50 songs*Lucy and audience laughed*. As I sat there, in an extra chair(there were more people than they had anticipated so they had to bring in the backup supply), I felt someone leaning against my arm. I paid little attention and just figured it was someone waiting on the line to get a drink at the bar. As Lucy began speaking about Richard Shindell and called him onto the stage to join her, it was then that I looked up at the figure that had been leaning against me and realized it was none other than Richard himself!! He joined her on stage and they did an amazing version of Ten Year Night, and Scorpion. After that Richard left the stage. Lucy went on to tell the audience about some songs that her dad wrote about MATH. She said she had wanted to try it out on an audience and get the reaction. So she read it to the audience and said it was a world premiere, which resulted in loud applause from the audience. Then someone in the audience requested "A Song About Pie"(not the edible variety of course), by her dad, Irving Kaplansky. She filled the request and even gave out her dad's email address and said hel loves fan mail. An audience member yelled out if he would be at Falcon Ridge, to which Lucy replied "Over my dead body", and laughed. She said that she was looking forward to seeing many of us at Falcon Ridge and she made a special mention about Sharon(Sharon, was that you in the first row?). She then went on to perform a song that she said was very new and incomplete, "It's Time To Go". I was quite moving. Next she switched to the beautiful piano that was on stage with her. She proceeded to sing "It's Just You", and it was clear that it had been originally written on piano. It flowed effortlessly and her voice was breathtaking. She also performed a Graham Parsons song(I'm not sure of the title), that she had always wanted to sing and that this was another world premiere since she had never attempted it before. Once again, we were transfixed by her. When she returned back to her guitar, she sang "Turn the Lights Back On". Midway through the song she broke her D string and still managed to make it through most of the song, she gave it her all! Much to our delight, Richard returned to the stage. Lucy was having difficulty restringing her guitar, so Richard gave her his to use while he sat and took care of her string dilemma. She performed "Your'e My Role Model"(I think it was a request). And for the closing set of the show, they switched back to their own guitars and did one of the most intense versions of "Speaking With The Angel" I have ever heard. A fabulous version of "By Way Of Sorrow" closed the set. They came back on stage and did "Mary Magdelane" as the encore. I have to say(don't get me wrong, I LOVE Dar too), that this rendition was nothing less than magnificent. I, along with the entire audience fell completely silent throughout every note of this song, spellbound from it's haunting melody. I feel she became Mary, and with Richard harmonizing and treating us with some incredible finger picking solos during it, it truly was a night of magic!!I left with an overwhelming feeling of life and inspiration, I couldn't wait to get home to my guitar and play her songs. Well, if anyone else was there, I hope you will put a message on the list or write to me and share your review of the show. I look forward to meeting many of you at Falcon Ridge!!!
