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

Welcome to cdRoots, the home of the best roots music around, from places both expected and surprising.



Tim Eriksen
Every Sound Below
Eriksen is rapidly becoming one of America's most important folk singers (as opposed to songwriter-singers), a man with a real grasp of the language and nuance of rural sounds, yet with a personal and orignal delivery. This is a collection of traditional songs.

Reverend J.M. Gate
Are You Bound For Heaven Or Hell? The Best Of...
The Atlanta preacher issued over 200 sides in his career. These 78 RPM tracks were little min-sermons in the old style, remastered by Columbia.

 


Gabriel Yacoub
The Simple Things We Said

 


Tigerlily
Tigerlily
This young Norwegian band fuses and melds folk, rock, ambient grooves and jazz into an unusual whole, driven by Elisabeth Vatn's bagpipes and clarinets, Harald Skullerud's percussion, and Olav Torget's plucked strings (including guitar, bass, banjo Senegambian konting and Chinese moon guitar).

 


V.A.
Women's Voices of Portugal
Solo and Choral music for female voice

 


Lomax recordings
Galicia
Galician songs for beating flax and cutting stones, wickedly barbed song duels, village pilgrimage songs, and popular dance tunes can be heard on these invaluable recordings made by Alan Lomax in remote villages of Galicia during the raw, cold winter of 1952. Lomax made these historic recordings in 1952 while traveling for months through Spanish villages during the Franco regime. Covering the breadth of Spain, these songs and dance melodies constitute a portrait of rural Spain's richly varied musical life, dispelling the common stereotypes of Spanish folk music.

 


Dave Swarbrick
Swarb!
4 CD box set by the renowned folk and rock fiddler.
