New Riders of the Purple Sage - "Where I Come From" Year: 2009 Woodstock Records 0028 Street Date: June 2, 2009 | |
New Riders of the Purple Sage has released its first studio CD in over 20 years. This legendary band's renaissance began four years ago and continues today with over 100 shows annually to audiences throughout the United States and Canada. The CD, "Where I Come From" , features 12 new songs of which seven were written by David Nelson and Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter. Also included are Carl Perkins - "Wears The Crown", an ode to the rockabilly king, written by Michael Falzarano (formerly of Hot Tuna) along with "Something in the Air Tonight", two live show favorites "Higher", penned by Johnny Markowski, and "Olivia Rose" by Ronnie Penque, as well as a cover of the classic "Minglewood Blues". The CD's cover art work was created by famed San Francisco artist Stanley Mouse.As Pete Welding suggested in the original liner notes of the first Paul Butterfield album The Paul Butterfield Blues Band: "To fully appreciate this album, we suggest you play it at as loud as possible." We think the same applies here ! "Where I Come From" is psychedelic Americana at its finest...." - MVD Distribution Visit The New Riders Offical Website : www.thenewriders.com David Nelson - Guitar/Vocals Buddy Cage - Pedal Steel Michael Falzarano - Guitar/Vocals Ronnie Penque - Bass/Vocals Johnny Markowski - Drums/Vocals |

New Riders of the Purple Sage - "Radio Mixes & Live Bonus" Year: 2009 Woodstock Records/NRPS SP1 Street Date: June 2, 2009 | |
There is also a bonus disc that was intended to only go out to radio but because we had some other cool stuff hanging around we decided to add it to this promo CD and make it available to all for a limited time. It features radio mixes of "Where I Come From", "Barracuda Moon" and "Higher" along with "Pourhouse Jelly" an instrumental jam played and recorded at sound check at The Pour House down in Charleston, SC in '07, "Let it Grow" a Falzarano tune played and recorded at sound check at the Shawnee Cave in '06. We later added some masterful Hammond organ playing by Professor Louie to those two tracks. Luckily our ace sound man at the time Tim Stiegler captured these tunes because we only played them that one time, we just started jamming and got lucky. The remaining four tracks "Louisiana Lady", "Peggy O", "Truck Driving Man" and "Dirty Business" are from the DVD/CD we put out in '06, Live At Turkey Trot Acres . We couldn't fit them onto the CD back then so we're happy to get those out in the world now. We hope you enjoy both discs! |
