The Borderlands

Editorial Reviews
About the Artist
Ruth Finlay was born and raised in the Birchcliff Village area of Toronto. At the age of six she began her music studies on piano. Coming from a musical family, there was always music in the home. Ruth's father H.C. Hughes was musical and taught Ruth, her sister and her brother to sing in three part harmony at very young ages. Together the children formed "The Hughes Trio", which sang in churches, at conferences and at festivals for many years.

Growing up, Ruth studied flute, music theory, and guitar. She sang in a number of folk groups as a teenager and continued to perform as lead singer in each combo.

Singing, writing music and playing flute introduced her to a number of opportunities to travel to various countries of the world with Shekinah, a Christian performing arts company. She toured England, Holland, and traveled with the group to various destinations in North America before joining them for almost a year in Israel, where she performed with the troupe throughout the country.

Ruth produced her first Album of original songs at age 22. Awake North Wind was created at Master's Workshop with co-producer Doug McKenzie.

Working as a singer/dancer/actress in the repertory theatre troupe The Inner Stage, Ruth also wrote songs for the company, and led workshops with children , teenagers and adults in the performing arts.

Ruth played flute, sang, played keyboards and wrote music for the reggae band Skyless and the Clouds. She formed a new band with lead singer Mikie C. (of Tuned in Radio) called Soul Food and produced with Mikie an EP of groove music called Spectacular.

When the Blues Brothers Band came to Ottawa, (with Dan Akeroid and James Belushi) in 1994, Ruth was invited to sing as one of their three back-up singers. They called the three singers The Natural Queens.

Inspired by inner reflections and hopes for humanity, Ruth’s new CD called The Borderlands was released on her own record label, Jesse Records in 1999. The songs from The Borderlands are all original (music and lyrics)–some songs inspired by A Course in Miracles and The Bible. The music on the CD is enhanced by the performances of flautist Ron Korb, guitarist Ray Hickey Jr., bassist Steve Lucas, drummer Larry Crowe, cellist Daniel Domb, keyboardist John Cleveland Hughes, and blues guitarist Buzz Upshaw. Ruth co-produced the CD with Paul LaChapelle at Quest Recording Studio in Oshawa, Ontario. On The Borderlands Ruth sang all lead and back-up vocals, played classical and twelve-string acoustic guitars, grand piano and keyboards.

In February, March and April of 2002 Ruth wrote and directed her first film "Talking Again" which won a Digital Gun Award . "Talking Again" is a music video taken from track #3 of The Borderlands.

Ruth obtained a Music and Drama Degree from the University of Toronto as well as a Bachelor of Education. She teaches music with the Canadian Bureau for the Advancement of Music where she is a supervisor and examiner. She is Vice-President of the Piano Class Teachers Association and served three years on the Board of Directors of The Davenport Festival of Music, promoting excellence in music performance among the young musicians of Toronto and Southern Ontario, Canada.

She plays with her band and performs solo concerts regularly, accompanying herself on piano and guitar and is currently in rehearsal for her new CD, Songdreamer.

Album Description
The Borderlands is a uniquely written and structured collection of songs. Finlay's strong and confident vocal performance is accompanied by a gathering of some of Toronto's finest musicians. Bob MacLean, Beach Metro News, November 2, 1999

Ruth's voice is very pure and clean. It's real singing that cuts right through to the melody without being bogged down by superfluous stylings. The songs are very positive and have a gentle spirit to them. . . . . very soft. . . .

    There are few words for this creation other than it is absolutely perfect and lets the listener slip into the infinite.

    5 out of 5 stars Storey's definitive opus.......2001-12-03

    Robin Storey, the British artist who goes by the moniker Rapoon, has emerged in the past decade as an important composer/musician of atmospheric/technology-based tribal music, much like his American counterpart Steve Roach as well as a dozen or so other artists working in the same arena. With albums like "Vernal Crossing" and "Recurring (Dream Circle)", he created mind-bending tapestries of minimalistic percussion patterns and quasi-melodic drones fused with occasional doses of well-placed white noise, an approach much in debt to his 12 year stint with ambient-industrial pioneers *zoviet-france* from 1980-1992. Though most of his works are certainly worthy of critical acclaim, "Fires of the Borderlands" is the album that will be eventually acknowledged as his masterpiece.

    His most atmospheric work yet, Storey has started to use percussive elements more and more in the background. Rhythm is still discernable in pieces like "Talking to a Stick" but becomes less of a standout on "Snake of Earth", where a swirling combination of metallic drones and what sounds like a highly processed steel drum motif take shape. "Omaneska" is both the longest and most breathtaking track, its choral underpinnings refering to the works of Ligeti and seems to reflect an expansive desert landscape, but this is not the desert musings of Steve Roach. Instead, Storey's ruminations seem to reflect more of an Asiatic mystique: case in point, the track "Looking...not finding" reminds me of the early music of Paul Horn (most importantly "Inside the Taj Mahal"), where Horn combined exquisite flute solos with equally exquisite vocals. Here, Storey has done the same, except without the superior acoustics of the Taj Mahal but with an equal sense of sublimity, achieving a sense of grace few others within the electronic music realm have done before. Now, if he would only reunite with *zoviet-france* (even if it's only to record one album), we could expect the impossible to occur...

    5 out of 5 stars refreshingly "ethno-ambient" gone right........2001-06-11

    when i bought this cd in ninety eight i didn't think that it would become a staple to my collect. it has been the main sleeping texture in my life for almost two years straight (that and Asphalt by In the Nursery.) i still have not gotten sick of the album. I can listen to it on repeat for hours and lose all concept of time, something that i can't say for most albums.

    5 out of 5 stars The Primal Achieved........2001-01-17

    There are many facets to the sort of music you'll find on this disc. Some refer to it as ambient, or minimal. Some dub it dark and tribal. In all forms of music - the above included - to evoke a unique spirit in the creation is a tricky endeavor.

    The Fires on the Borderlands succeeds here; much more than merely unique, the album is a world in itself...full of a mysterious and ancient sound that draws you in quietly. The sound is huge, surrounding and elegant...performed with a mastery on the level with the best of its kind.

    I heard the opening track - "Hollow Flight" - on an internet radio station. Though my attentions were elsewhere, it didn't take long for the piece to hook me. I had no experience with this artist before, but now I'm fascinated to learn more. Give this album a try...and I think you'll feel the same.

    5 out of 5 stars AUDIO TRANSPORTATION.......2000-11-27

    I only recently discovered the work of Robin Storey (as Rapoon -- I listened to several Zoviet France releases years ago). THE FIRES OF THE BORDERLANDS was the first disc I acquired -- I couldn't be happier with it. The album is constructed masterfully in shimmering waves of sound -- the overall effect is extremely soothing. This is one of those rare albums which the listener can enjoy in both an ambient setting and one in which he/she chooses to pay very close attention to the music. Storey's incorporation of ethnic sounds and moods transports the listener gently to a relaxed, yet attentive state of consciousness. Highly recommended.

    Album Description

    A unique musical culture flourishes in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas and southern Arizona: Yaqui Pascola dance, Tohono O'odham fiddle band music, and the more contemporary Native American Chicken Scratch sound with traditional conjunto polkas and corridos, Latino-influenced big bands, northern Mexican and German-rooted norteno, modern conjunto and orquestra Tejana. Licensed from 4 small regional record labels that specialize in this music. In addition to 5 American Indian tracks, this album also includes 13 Hispanic and Southwestern American songs. 56 minutes

    "The party album of the year...the best accompaniment to tequila since the taco chip" - Rolling Stone

    En el valle del Río Grande [Río Bravo] florece una cultura musical única, en esa zona ubicada entre Texas y el sur de Arizona: desde la danza Pascola de los indios Yaqui y la música para banda de violines Tohono O'odham, hasta las sonoridades más contemporáneas del Chicken Scratch de los indígenas norteamericanos, las tradicionales polcas y corridos de conjunto, las big bands con influencia latina, la música norteña con influencias tanto mexicanas como alemanas, el conjunto moderno y la orquesta tejana. Esta compilación ha sido autorizada por 4 compañías disqueras regionales especializadas en este tipo de música. Además de los 5 cortes de música indígena, este álbum incluye también 13 canciones de origen hispánico y del sureste americano. 56 minutos

    This album is a wonderful example of the kind of music you hear all along the border between Mexico and the United States. It's unique in that you don't hear the music contained in this album in Mexico nor do you hear it in the states. It also contains music called "Chicken Scratch" from the Tohoho O'Odham tribe whose reservation fronts on the Mexican border. This is a great album.

      Album Description

      Import only Three-disc, 74-track collection. The British folk revival that took place at club level during the Sixties introduced a whole new audience to traditional folksong, while also bringing to the fore the concept of the earnest young singer/songwriter. Given the grassroots nature of the movement, it was inevitable that regional scenes would throw up their own local heroes. In Scotland, the grizzled likes of Hamish Imlach, Matt McGinn and Alex Campbell would underpin the scene while providing inspiration for a slightly younger generation of talents (Bert Jansch, Gerry Rafferty, Billy Connolly), whose immersion in contemporary pop culture would enable them to make a greater impact on the mainstream. Featuring typically perceptive liners from noted Celt commentator Hamish MacTavish, Border Lands incorporates all the era's main players - the club raconteurs, the acoustic strummers, the folksong revivalists, the electric folk rockers - for a definitive look at the heyday of the Scottish folk scene. Castle. 2006.

        Album Description

        The corridos in this collection come from the region comprising southern Arizona and northern Sonora, one that was divided politically by the Gadsden Purchase of 1853, but is unified by a Mexican folk culture. These corridos-- the word translates loosely as "ballads" -- are story songs that tell tales of revolution, crime, heroic showdowns, horse races, and disasters in this overlooked part of the world. Heroes and Horses is a slice of life along the Arizona-Sonora border as it has been lived and memorialized in corridos over the course of the 20th century. Rich with the folk traditions of northern Mexico, rarely are the engaging voices of these balladeers accompanied by more than a guitar and an accordion. Tales of triumph and tragedy fill this collection and bring the Arizona-Sonora borderlands to life. This enhanced CD includes 71 minutes of music, extensive notes, photos, and complete lyrics in Spanish and English on the disc.

        Los corridos de esta colección vienen de la región del sur de Arizona y del norte de Sonora, una región dividida políticamente por el acuerdo Gadsden Purchase de 1853, pero que está unificada por la cultura popular mexicana. Estos corridos son historias cantadas que cuentan sobre la revolución, el crimen, heroicos encuentros, carreras de caballo y desastres en esta región olvidada del mundo. Heroes and Horses (Héroes y caballos) es una dimensión de la vida a lo largo de la frontera Sonora-México como ha sido vivida y conmemorada en los corridos en el transcurso del siglo XX. Rica en tradiciones populares del norte de México, rara vez las voces cautivantes de estos corridistas son acompañadas con más de una guitarra y un acordeón. Historias de triunfo y tragedia llenan esta colección y traen a la vida las regiones fronterizas entre Arizona y Sonora. Este disco compacto incluye 71 minutos de música, extensas notas, fotos y letras completas en español e inglés.

          If you've never listened to what I like to call 'gypsy brass band music', this is a very super album to pick up. If, on the other hand, you like kocani orkestar, and crave more of the same but different, this is the album for you! If you're a 'Dirty Dozen' fan who thinks they've kind of tamed themselves down .... head for borderlands!

          These guys solo a lot, yet they have a staggeringly good ensemble sound -- amazing for such a small group. 'Ed Blackwell' connects you to their idea of jazz: it's a nice tribute to a really great New Orleans drummer. Every track is excellent -- pure straight-ahead gypsy. What other brass band music makes you wanna dance?

          Kathryn Tykell is almost certainly the greatest living player of the Northumbrian small pipes. This is my favorite of all her albums. I originally bought it by mistake, wrong disk in the box, but I wouldn't give it back. You have to hear her play to appreciate the marvelous sound of the small pipes and her virtuoso playing. I would not give up this album.

          5 out of 5 stars Other Times Other Places.......2000-08-06

          I find Borderlands to be one of the best of it's kind. I listen to it on my way to work and find that I enter the job smiling and at peace. Those whom I have introduced it to feel the same and are searching for a place to buy a copy. The beautiful blend of the old and new as well as the use of traditional instruments makes this a work of art. If mellow and peaceful is not what you're looking for, this is not the CD for you but if you want a mindscape to other times and places filled with peace this is definitely one for your collection!
