Celebrated Grammy award winner Ray LaMontagne will commemorate the 20th anniversary of the release of his seminal debut album, Trouble, with a special remastered vinyl edition. Additionally, LaMontagne will embark on the Trouble 20th Anniversary Tour, performing the album in its entirety for the first time since its release. On the remastered vinyl, LaMontagne continues, "When Trouble was initially released Vinyl was considered a dead format, never to breathe again. Digital audio was the new King. As we know this has proved untrue. Each year more and more music lovers are listening to vinyl and appreciating it for its depth and breadth of sound, for its physical heft, for its tangible realness."

In SEI guitar movement and dance take over the stage. The guitarists Kaki King and Tamar Eisenman become dancers, coordinating their whole bodies to perform the rigors of both choreography and composition. Multiple guitars are spaced out strategically, in a design allowing for music and movement to be created between them. In SEI, the relationship between the players is revealed musically and physically, a progression of distance and space—like the progression between the six individual strings of the guitar.

Acoustic Disc has announced the release of Doc Watson & David Grisman, Doc & Dawg Live at Town Hall in download format only. On October 22, 1998, Arthel "Doc" Watson and David "Dawg" Grisman played two sets to a sold-out house at New York's legendary Town Hall. Fortunately, the music was well recorded by Dawg sound engineer Larry Cumings and released here for the first time. As guitarist Jack Lawrence, who also played in the concert, put it, "This recording from Town Hall is a prime example of the Doc & Dawg experience. In a setting as comfortable as our own homes we delivered two sets of honest, organic music. Here we have three friends enjoying each other’s company and playing music for the sheer joy of it. We never thought to approach it any other way."

By the time Joni Mitchell made The Hissing of Summer Lawns, she had already entered the pantheon of the greats, with albums that can be talked about in casual conversation without having to say the artist (Court and Spark, Blue, Ladies of the Canyon, et al.). But the pioneering work in alt-folk and self-confessional singer-songwriting done, she started pushing her music in radical directions, incorporating jazz, African music (which was hard to actually hear in the States in the ‘70s) and a new, sprawling vision of pop music into her fold. The first moment that all those styles converge and lift Mitchell off into some new vista is The Hissing of Summer Lawns, an album we believe to be her masterpiece, an album that has tendrils of influence that are still being felt today. Remastered by Ryan Smith at 2xLP 45RPM from original tapes, this edition has to be heard to be believed.

The third volume of Bare Bones collects 16 alternate duo arrangements of songs that were released on Garcia/Grisman, Not For Kids Only, Shady Grove, Been All Around This World and even Volume II of this series. The program includes many of the very first performances of the classic tunes the duo recorded. This project is available in the sonically superior Hi-Definition (24-bit, 96 kHz) format.

M.C. Records is proud to announce the release of Guy Davis' The Legend of Sugarbelly on August 23. The 13-song release by the Grammy-nominated legendary roots musician contains mostly original songs and several blues classics from Leadbelly, Rev. Gary Davis, and Blind Lemon Jefferson.

Volume II of Bare Bones is comprised of the “original” duo versions of tunes that became staples of the Garcia/Grisman repertoire, all subsequently arranged for various group sessions. As Dawg states in the notes, “This collection illuminates our process of selecting and arranging the material. “The Sweet Sunny South”, released on Shady Grove as a banjo duet, was originally recorded with guitar and mandolin. Other tunes, like “The Crawdad Song” and “Moonlight Bay” were only tried once and never made it into our set lists.” This project is available in the sonically superior Hi-Definition (24-bit, 96 kHz) format.

They are presented here for the first time, in their original unadorned state. This project is available in the sonically superior Hi-Definition (24-bit, 96 kHz) format.
