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

The Henrys
Led by guitarist Don Rooke, this never-less-than-surprising, ever-changing ensemble of musicians skirts just about every known boundary, slipping easily from jazz to blues to avant garde to roots-rhythms and mostly just sound like The Henrys. There are few more original ensembles around.
 Chasing Grace - The Henrys $15.99 (cdRoots# henrys-grace)
 Desert Cure - The Henrys $16.99 (cdRoots# henrys-desert)
Back in print! The third disc from this Toronto combo firmly establishes Don Rooke as one of acoustic guitar's greatest unsung heroes. Rooke is a startling original who seems constitutionally incapable of resorting to slide cliches.' - Guitar Player
 Joyous Porous - The Henrys $temp out of stock-15.99 (cdRoots# henrys-joy)
it's jazz, it's American roots and blues, it's avant garde soul, it's all and none at all. Centered on the squeeks and squirls of Don Rookes slide and plucked guitars, driven by an quirky sense of ambiance by a core band of bass and drums, they are joined by an equally quirky cast of guests (Michael White, Mary Margaret O'Hara and Hugh Marsh, among others. They all contribute a closet full of sounds, from horns, kalimbas, tin pans and other household sounding objects to old analog synthesizers: therimins and mellotrons and Arps and such from the studio basement.
 Puerto Angel - The Henrys $temp out of stock-15.99 (cdRoots# henrys-puerto)
 Atlas Travel - Don Rooke $temp out of stock-16.99 (cdRoots# henrys-atlas)
The solo release by composer, guitarist and all around swell guy Don Rooke from The Henrys is an exercise in sonic spaciousness, aural elbow room and capricious experimentation.
