Review

Andrew's second CD continues his literate exploration of America's back roads and small towns. Each of the 14 songs is set in a musical style and production that vividly evokes the scenery; the spooky swamp blues of "Chemical Voodoo" set along Cancer Alley on Louisiana's Mississippi Delta, the open Dakota prairies in "A Prairie Wind/Big Sky Town", or the evocative Saturday night at the Grange Hall dance in "Shenandoah Moon". Skillfully produced with original Nitty Gritty Dirt Band member Les Thompson, this album is rich with elegant harmony vocals and exquisite arrangements. Andrew's wry charm, signature acoustic guitar style, and rich warm vocals shine throughout. Guest harmony vocalists include Terri Allard, Laurie Rose Griffith and Tom Prasada-Rao, while regular Falling Mountain friends and family such as Ralph Gordon (bass, cello) and Chas Fowler (pipes, whistles) are also well represented. Other highlights include the a cappella title track, the lush "Bargema! n", the elegant simplicity of "I Can't Understand the Moon", and the Americana drive of "A Town Called Progress".
