I remember hearing this song when I was about 5 years old and just instantly loving how fun this song is! Today, 15 years later, I still feel exactly the same :). Such a great cover by Letters to Cleo of a great song by Cheap Trick. :D I hope you guys have as much fun listening to it as I had recording it. It's a little rough around the edges, but that's what makes it fun! :D

Sweet And Lovely


Rivers have always captured the imagination of humans. Many hymns have been dedicated to them. Their beauty lies in the landscapes they traverse. 
Shenandoah is an American folk song. It was first a riverman's and then sailor's song. And this is just a beautiful melody – FOLLOWED BY MY OWN IMPROVISATION ON IT.

Here are the lyrics from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_Shenandoah 

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to see you,
    And hear your rolling rivers
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I love your daughter,
    Away, you rolling river.
    For her I'd cross
    Your roaming waters,
    Way, we're bound away
    Across the wide Missouri.

    'Tis seven years
    since last I've seen you,
    Away, you rolling river.
    'Tis seven years
    since last I've seen you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Far away, you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    Just to be near you,
    Far away, far away.
    Across the wide Missouri.



Keith Jarrett- ‘Shenandoah’, PLUS MY OWN IMPROVISATION

Impro No.5 on ‘Happy Xmas/ War is over’

World’s Fair. Julian Lage’s first solo guitar album, is so spontaneous and intimate in feel it’s as if this prodigious guitarist had just arrived in your living room, picked up his vintage Martin, and simply started to play.

“I always had a fantasy about doing a solo guitar project, “ Lage explains, “especially one that highlighted various orchestrational aspects of guitar playing and guitar techniques, drawing from the structure of the three to four minute song, pieces that did not depend as much on improvisation but on moods, or musical attitudes. When I started recording, I discovered what a rare opportunity this was for me to recalibrate my senses to one instrument and within that recalibration learn to savor the vast world of intimacy and nuance, both qualities so inherent to the guitar.”

While conceiving of and recording World’s Fair, Lage was inspired by the orchestral approach to the guitar of the great Andres Segovia and by the music of the early 20th Century, of “jazz before be-bop. He found a similarly unbound spirit in the early seventies work of singer-songwriters like Randy Newman, who managed to incorporate a sophisticated range of ideas into the concise pop-song format. He was drawn, in other words, to sounds that were both challenging and pleasing -- work, much like his own, that defies easy categorization.

As the New York Times has put it, the 26 year-old Lage is a an artist whose roots are “tangled in jazz, folk, classical and country music.” A child guitar prodigy, he was the subject of the 1997 Oscar-nominated documentary short, Jules at 8.; he made his first recording, with David Grisman, at the age of 11. His first recording as a leader, 2009’s Sounding Point, garnered a Grammy nomination as Best Contemporary Jazz Album. Up to now, collaboration has been essential to Lage’s process; he has toured and/or recorded with such artists as Gary Burton, Nels Cline, Fred Hersch, and Jim Hall, who was a major influence on the young Lage. His most recent project is Room, a live-in-the-studio exchange with experimental guitarist Cline. Earlier this year, he released Avalon, a duo recording with fellow guitarist Chris “Critter” Eldridge (of Punch Brothers) that surveyed the American Songbook with an easygoing virtuosity.

World’s Fair, co-produced by Matt Munisteri and engineered by Armand Hirsch, sets up a new sort of relationship between Lage and his audience, as about as one-on-one as a musician can get without physically being there. Says Lage, “Here are twelve songs that represent this opening into my world, a musical and personal aesthetic I haven’t yet had the opportunity to express in full on record. This music, these explorations, this overarching narrative -- taken together, they represent one of my long times dreams, to create music for one guitar, played by one person, for you.”

A N T I T H E S I S is a new wave piano project by first time collaborators; Georgii Speakman (Writer) and Phil Lewis (Producer). Together, they’ve built a new to market piano brand that’s visually creative, inspiring, sonically simple and easy to digest; rooted in storytelling, thematics, and strong content. The name A N T I T H E S I S is inspired by concepts of dichotomy, relativity, polarity and yin, and yang. In every God given moment in life; situations, circumstances - the universe in totality has existing opposites. There are themes of antithesis’ throughout everything we do, think and experience. It’s all about perspective. A N T I T H E S I S Vol. 1, Pt. 1 takes the listener on a full circle journey of life and love.
