Bob Brozman In Concert MB96181VX $24.95
|
|
 |
Bob Brozman combines world music and American styles
including blues, hot jazz, slide, Hawaiian and Caribbean influences
to create an unforgettable, truly live concert. Bob has a fast-paced
wide-ranging laughing, marveling and participating in his infectious
rhythms. Bob's mainstay is the novel mixing of American and world music
styles in completely new ways, as his slide guitar explores the musical
frontiers between the first and third worlds. Throughout, Bob maintains
a disarming talent for humor from the zany to the sardonic. All of Bob's
"special effects" come from his hands only, without electronic
devices. He pounds his guitars like a full drumset, whips them up behind
his head, spins them in the air, and all done between licks that leave
guitarists scratching their heads! His second instrument is his voice,
ranging from deep growling blues to jazz scat-singing to Hawaiian yodel
to calypso to French chanson.

Merle Travis Rare Performances 1946-1981 Vol. 1 MB95243VX
$24.95

This video captures 35 years of rare film and television
performances by one of the all-time great American musicians. The music
and guitar playing of Merle Travis have been a seminal influence on
the American music scene. There is not a fingerstyle guitarist whose
playing has not been touched by Merle's style and technique. He wrote
over 900 songs, and some, such as "Sixteen Tons" and "Dark
as a Dungeon," are so familiar that today they are thought of as
"folk songs". The video includes a free instructional booklet
featuring an interview, biographical essay, and many rare photographs.

|
|
 |
This video captures the legendary Roy Book Binder performing
at a sold-out concert at the National Storytelling Festival in Jonesborough,
Tennessee. With his signature wry wit and guitar technique, Roy peppered

cameras were there, and the result is a thoroughly engaging and entertaining
performance video by one of America's most popular folk and blues artists.
