Discography...
the latest release!
"IN
THE BAG" is a full length CD released in July of 2007
No Auditions (NYET 7008)
This
album is the result of the collaboration between SPOT and percussionist
ALBERT ALFONSO who is highly
regarded in the Celtic music world as both an accomplished bodhran
player and drum maker (he makes some of the best drums on the planet!).
Over the past few years they have been performing together at festivals
and in July of '07 they embarked on their first tour.
So far this CD is only available at live performances.
"NAE
PLUMB NOR SQUARE" is a full-length CD released in August of 2005.
No Auditions (NYET 7007)
Having not issued any recordings since 2000, SPOT put together this album just prior to his August 2005 tour. It contains previously unreleased material from a variety of sources—live, demo, studio. Until further notice, it will only be available directly from him at his live shows or from cd baby.
"UNHALFBAKING" is a full length CD released
in January of 2000.
O&O/Upland (UP
001)
"Well,
this certainly ain't The Chieftains! ...this hybrid mixes any number
of musical sources (bluegrass, country, punk, rockabilly) that all
seem to revolve around a Celtic base. The man makes some very interesting
but very hard to describe music. Certainly worth a listen for the
musically adventurous."
—Dirty Linen (Aug/Sept 00' #89)
"Unhalfbaking
is a genius punk-folk record, sweaty and funny and totally unpretentious...
...he heads down the eccentric post-Beat path (a narrow one, through
dark woods) taken by the likes of Michael Hurley and Peter Stampfel...
...[here's] proof that the elusive grail of tradition is as much in
the individual as it is in the cliches."
—Chicago Reader (May 26, 2000)
"...his latest CD unhalfbaking is a masterpiece.
Composition, lyric, performance: this album has it all. Even the liner
notes are worth reading again and again. ...this CD successfully fuses
elements of jazz, rock, folk, blues, and celtic music into a coherent,
highly accessible package."
