After 5 decades of playing the acoustic guitar, this is finally the CD that expresses my passion for the instrument in it's many glorious voices. From the country blues I have always loved, to original songs on the flat top and slide guitar, to some unusual covers of both well known and little known songs, this CD runs the gamut of American folk styles. And yes, there are vocals too, including an original sing along (The Samsara Drinking Song) recorded live at a cafe here in the Hudson Valley. Blues, finger picking, slide guitar, you name it, it's here. If you love the sound of the acoustic guitar, join Elly in this journey through American folk idioms as well as some original songs in Elly's unique style.
