Please note!
Most of our CDs have been imported from Europe or Asia. They are not all shrink-wrapped, and I am not going to con you by wrapping them here just to make you think they have been sterilized in America. I guarantee that the CDs and the contents are all brand new and in perfect condition. Whenever I can, I use recycled shipping materials. They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier.
Thanks- Cliff, cdRoots

Blue Navigator: CDs by Peter Stampfel and Michael Hurley

Down In Dublin - Michael Hurley
$13.99
(cdRoots# nav-dublin)
The king of snock, a master of overstated, under-rated, country influenced songwriting is like no one else on the planet, and these sessions from ireland are no exception. Dark, funny, disturbing and romantic, often simultaneously, Hurley is one of the few people out there who merits the accolade of 'one of a kind.'

The Jig Is Up - Peter Stampfel and the Bottlecaps
$13.99
(cdRoots# nav-jig)
H.M. Rounder Peter Stampfel is back again, in a series of recordings made 1989–1999 with a host of different musicians, but all pulled together by his insatiable, exploratory lust for good songs, odd ideas and bizarre juxtapositions (and a Quicktime video clip, too!).

Hedonism - Bellowhead
$17.99
(cdRoots# sst-hedonism)
Formed in 2004 by duo John Spiers (melodeon, concertina) and Jon Boden (vocals, fiddle), this 11-piece big band fuses a wide range of individual musical talent into something unique and truly uplifting. With fellow band-members Pete Flood (percussion); Justin Thurgur (trombone); Brendan Kelly (saxophone, bass clarinet); Andy Mellon (trumpet); Paul Sartin (oboe, fiddle); Rachael McShane (cello, fiddle); Ed Neuhauser (helicon, tuba); Benji Kirkpatrick (guitar, mandolin, bouzouki) and Sam Sweeney (fiddle, pipes) Bellowhead honor centuries of English musical tradition while at the same time constantly pressing forward into the future. On this 2010 studio album the music is a delirious amalgam of schooled musicianship and anarchic abandon.

Matachin - Bellowhead
$12.99
(cdRoots# sst-matachin)
The second studio recording by the English squeezebox-fiddle-brassband-chamber group is as vital as its predecessor, Burlesque, following the same idea even further down the road.

Live At Shepherds Bush Empire (PAL DVD) - Bellowhead
$24.99
(cdRoots# wp-bellowdvd)
The carnival folk big band are captured live during their Burlesque tour at their sold-out London Shepherds Bush Empire show on September 26th 2007. This is the first ever official DVD from the much loved 11-piece group. In addition to the 98 minute concert, the DVD follows the group off stage and on the road with over an hour of bonus documentaries and interviews. PAL DVD Only
