ROOTS RAGS & BLUES - TIM SPARKS Anticipated Release Date: February/March 2007 Produced by: Acoustic Guitar Workshop The collection of tunes on ROOTS RAGS & BLUES finds Sparks returning to his own roots, the music he learned growing up in rural North Carolina. It was a world of tobacco fields, fire-breathing itinerant preachers, cornbread and collard greens, bluegrass and barbecue, moonshine on Saturday night and rapturous gospel singing on Sunday morning...and the country blues that seemed to come right up from the earth, out of the sun-baked, red clay Piedmont bottom land. Tim Sparks plays and explains new and original versions of three classic fingerstyle standards: Willie Brown's Mississippi Blues, Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag and The Victory Rag, made famous by Mother Maybelle Carter. In addition, he does a country gospel workout on Amazing Grace, shows some New Orleans style on the Original Jelly Roll Blues and finishes with a Klezmer classic recorded in the 1920's, Tanst Yiddlekh. |
