Shane Speal - 12 Stones (2011)

$9.00

The latest release by the King of the Cigar Box Guitar. Recorded live in the studio. Features "Mother Leeds," Speal's murder ballad about the Jersey Devil and "Tattoo of You." "A Shane Speal album is always a welcome release and Twelve Stones is no exception.Speals seemingly bottomless enthusiasm is in abundance throughout, as is his energy and willingness to mix things up and experiment with different styles.The result is that the listener has, quite simply, a Good Time and this, one suspects,is Speals aim.Get together,have a good time.A worthy intention in these increasingly alienated,troubled times.Pick up 12 Stones today." - Hollowbelly

The newest cd from the King of the Cigar Box Guitar. Eight new gloriously lo-fi tracks (and 4 bonus tracks) including Speal's remake of Jimi Hendrix's "I Dont Live Today" performed on cigar box guitar and backed by a fife-and-drum band. "Speal's music is intentionally strange. The best way to describe it is to take blues and gospel and country and Hawaiian and ragtime and put it through a meat grinder that's missing some teeth - all recorded in the basement of Speal's Shiloh home on a Zoom digital recorder he inherited from a now-deceased friend." -Mike Argento (from the York Daily Record newspaper, 4/24/09)
