FEATURES FOR THE WEEK Monday, April 5, 1999 DAVID MICHAEL & RANDY MEAD: NEW TROUBADOURS David Michael & Randy Mead have been together for a quarter century, weaving a blend of Celtic Harp and flutes on several albums including last year's critically acclaimed "Courtship of the Moon (Purnima). These artists work outside the conventional mainstream, playing their music on street corners in Europe and ferries on Puget Sound. We talk to this duo about their long trip and new music. Tuesday, April 6, 1999 RICHARD LEO JOHNSON-ACOUSTIC AXE VICTIM Richard Leo Johnson was born and raised in Arkansas and that's where he picked up a uniquely aggressive approach to the acoustic guitar that recalls Michael Hedges. Playing mostly 12 string, he hammers, slams and plucks his guitar to create a mutated orchestra of melodies that have hints of jazz, country, blues and folk. We caught up with Richard just as his debut album, "Fingertip Ship" (Metro Blue) was about to be released. Wednesday, April 7, 1999 A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH JAMI SIEBER Jami Sieber plays a cello that looks like a stick with a peg leg on it. But plugging into a rack of electronic effects, she turns herself into a one woman string orchestra. In her Berkeley apartment, Jami Sieber plays music from her latest album, "Second Sight," (Out Front) live in an Echoes Living Room Concert. Friday, April 9, 1999 WILLIAM WATSON'S SOLO PIANO HYMNAL William Watson grew up the son of 60's Civil Rights activists in Mississippi. He spent his youth shuttling from one black church to another, soaking up gospel tunes. Now he turns those tunes into his own evocative piano solos on two albums, Fields and Burnham Woods. We visit William Watson in his San Francisco home where he gives us the gospel. ***************************************************************** *denotes compilation ID# 99-J07-00067 Monday, April 5, 1999 (Echoes Program 6E) ARTIST SELECTION RECORDING First Half Hour Mike Oldfield Clear Light Tubular Bells Esteban Silver Raine Enter the Heart Knut Hamre & Olav Bergstad A Steve Tibbetts Giovanni Sollima Hinton's Drawings Aquilarco Luis Delgado The Look El Sueno de Al-Zaqqaq Second Half Hour Loreena McKennitt La Serenissima The Book of Secrets Michael Hedges Dream Beach Torched Adiemus Adiemus Songs of the Sanctuary Spool 3 Spool Richard Searles Song of Elfarron Sheltering Stones Trancendental Hamam Steam Third Half Hour Anthony Phillips Something Blue Dragonfly Dreams Nick Rowe The Fire & the The Fire and the Moon Moon Wendy Luck Night Prayer The Ancient Key Richie Buckley Martin, Frances The General & Tina Steve Naive The Time It's Raining Somewhere Fourth Half Hour DAVID MICHAEL & RANDY MEAD: NEW TROUBADOURS David Michael & Sky Safari Courtship of the Moon Randy Mead Vas Ellora Offerings Richard Drueding & The Day After the Wissahickon Stephe Ferraro Night Before ****************************************** WANT TO ADD ANY OF THESE CDS TO YOUR COLLECTION?
