Julie Murphy and Dylan Fowler
Ffawd (Fflach, Wales)
$17.99
The brilliant singer Murphy teams up with the more-jazz oriented guitarist Fowler for an interesting take on Welsh traditional tunes. It's getting raves in the UK press, and I certainly agree.

| A whole album of the thrilling, clear voice of Julie Murphy is certainly good news.... Throughout, the accompaniments are equally imaginative, with a variety of approaches being taken, from the impressionistic to the rhythmic, to produce a range of glittering aural backdrops upon which the voice can be placed. This CD is definitely something special." - The Living Tradition, UK |
The record label rap:
Two of Wales' finest musicians have come together to record a collection of songs from the rich Welsh-language tradition. The arrangements are simple and contemporary, featuring only guitar and voice, highlighting the timeless quality of the music. Julie Murphy is regarded as one of the finest folk singers in the UK and her music has taken her around the world. Dylan Fowler is one of the finest guitar players in Wales and has collaborated with some of Britain's finest jazz musicians, including Danny Thompson, Bosco Dolivera and Winston Clifford. This is an unique CD which gives a different flavour to traditional songs.

Please note!
Most 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.
We 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.
