Mother's Finest

2006-09-23

Is this the resurrection of Leftover Salmon? No? Oh well, oh joy! Right from the beginning this CD says, “Play me, dance with me.” Like the once living salmon, these folks know how to have fun with the music that melodically crosses/combines genres. There’s rootsy rock guitar stuff, bluesy harp, flute, recorder, mandolin and more, here. This is, in their words, “acoustic jam music,” and every bit of it is vintage WYCE. And to think, this is their second CD. (++)
