Album Description

As acclaimed for her socio-political compositions as for her bottomless repertoire of Anglo-American folk music, Peggy Seeger revisits her traditional roots on "Heading for Home," her 20th solo album.

Aside from the opening, self-penned title track, a meditation on mortality, the other songs on this CD are revived from America's past, including a handful never previously recorded by Peggy. Among those accompanying Peggy's vocals, banjo, dulcimer and guitar are her sons, multi-instrumentalists Neill (formerly of The Bible) and Calum (a Van Morrison sideman), who co-produced the CD, her daughter Kitty on backing vocals, and brother Mike, solo artist and founding member of the New Lost City Ramblers.

The spare instrumentation highlights Peggy's ageless, unaffected vocals on an assortment of songs about love, lust, war, murder, friendship, poverty, class inequality - the compositions may date from the past but are still alive and relevant today. Peggy's prominent, rippling banjo gives many of the songs a tinge of bluegrass and "mountain music," closing the circle between their oft-British origins and subsequent American adaptations.

Like her half-brother Pete and brother Mike, Peggy Seeger simultaneously preserves and extends the situations and plainsung emotions of traditional folk music while emphasizing the undying connections between roots music and modern-day life. "In my head, I try to be constantly involved with the people who made the songs, and to understand why they made them," Peggy told Dirty Linen magazine recently. "Folk music is its own person. It doesn't need us to bring along our individual egos to do something with it."

Peggy Seeger ... .......2006-10-18

Peggy Seeger has enough talent for three people. Her singing and banjo playing blend very well together. She can sing like a bird and it just seems to flow out so easily. Music samples can't do her justice. When playing this on my stereo system I love to crank up the volume. Peggy has recorded 20 solo albums and contributed to more than 100 other recordings. This is a great CD and and you'll soon find yourself singing along with the tunes.

Album Description

12 melodic rock songs about love, loss and real life, driven home by smart guitars, punchy rhythms and laid-bare vocals. Written, performed and produced by guitarist/vocalist Jonathan Mudd with Seattle bassist Andrew Luthringer (Jessie Turner, Monica Pasqual/Blame Sally, Percy Howard), North Carolina guitarist Terry C. McInturff (Safehouse, Debra DeMilo), and mixed and mastered by Steve Gronback (Black Crowes, Rain Parade, The Connells, Cry of Love, Tommy Keene).

Customer Reviews:

Downright good stuff.......2005-02-16

Like the Replacements or the Connells? Then you'll like Mudd. (You Steely Dan fans will be impressed, too.) Lots of catchy guitars and melodies -- "In Another Lifetime" and "Hiding the Gray" will be in your head for days. And if you appreciate a cool instrumental, check out "Did You Bring the Tickets?"

A Reawakening.......2004-12-30

Cynicism is a way of life for a fifty-something with failing hearing. Somewhere, sometime, somebody has already done it all anyway.

Mudd gives the lie to all of that. Strings that are at once crisp and mellow, with vocals so honest, he could be singing to himself...but he doesn't mind if you listen in.

The surrounding musicians don't sound like structural support, but are integral to the message; the message that Mudd is more than worth paying attention to, he's a perceptive student of humanity, with a unique and enjoyable voice. It's a reason to get excited about music again.

"A fetching collection of riff-happy rockers...".......2004-12-09

The following review was reprinted from The Washington Post, Wednesday, December 8, 2004; Page C05

<<District denizen Jonathan Mudd once received the highest compliment a fringe-dwelling pop-rocker could ask for: praise from Marshall Crenshaw.

When Crenshaw received, unsolicited, a record by Mudd's new-wave-era outfit, the Shake, the skinny-tie hall-of-famer shot back a note saying, "I'm not sure who you are or why you sent me this record, but thanks. It's good."

If Crenshaw happens to find a copy of Mudd's latest CD, "Any Good Heaven," in his mailbox this holiday season, chances are he'll go for it, too: The album is a treat, a fetching collection of riff-happy rockers that never forgo the catchy parts.

Set opener "Outside Looking In" glides by on shimmery guitars and a fat, arena-ready chorus. The slinky "Feel So Real" detours into that '70s era via multitracked lead lines that practically quote Cheap Trick. And hook for hook, "Coming Home" is as strong as anything on the last Fountains of Wayne album -- "Stacy's Mom" excluded, of course.

Like the Fountains of late, Mudd can be a tougher sell lyrically, particularly when he waxes direct when just a suggestion would do. The subtitle of the otherwise ace "In Another Lifetime" is "All Right Alone," for instance, and although the Who-ish "Hiding the Gray" scores with a snarling, bell-bottomed outro, the tune would be better if Mudd rinsed out the forty-something angst.

For fans of smart guitars and tuneful melody-making, though, "Any Good Heaven" is a real find, one that -- as Crenshaw perhaps already knows -- could make a great pop-rock stocking stuffer.

-- Shannon Zimmerman>>

Great new sound on Mudd's debut CD.......2004-12-09

Jonathan Mudd has got a great sound on his debut CD. One will hear echoes of REM, the Pretenders, Marshall Crenshaw, but Mudd produces something entirely original. His guitar work is sweet and clean. His lyrics are at once thoughtful, insightful, and catchy. The musicians he pulled together blend seamlessly. No doubt "Perfect Day" (as well as "Outside Looking In" and several others) could make it as singles if they get a chance. Treat yourself to this CD.

Customer Reviews:

THIS CD ROCKS!.......2000-11-10

I saw these guys play up in Seattle. Their live set was awesome. Very tight, and very together, great songs, wonderful guitar playing. I would have given this CD five stars, but I am curious to hear what they do next, and even though the Cd is really good, their live show is even better. Pick this CD up!

Pretty good for a first.......2000-10-14

Good songs. Good Vocals. Kinda short but still a very good first record. I really enjoyed the buried track after song 5. I will definitely be looking for Valhere's next record.

I can't wait for the next one!.......2000-10-06

This record really surprised me. I got it from a friend of mine who does booking for a club here in Portland. Normally the bands all suck, but this rocked! I don't mean head bangin' stuff, just good tunes, good vocals, and awesome instrumentation. For and "indie" band these guys sure have an edge that most "indie" groups don't. After hearing how good their EP is, I can only imagine how their full length record will sound. Rock on Valhere!

this band has a unique seductive melody sense, and the arrangements on this record are brilliant, the songs are artistically beautiful and rich with genuine emotion

Beautiful, leaves me wanting more (like a longer disc!).......2004-01-16

I loved the themes and moods, compositions are breathtaking. It is too short, and we need a longer disc from these guys. Until then I strongly reccommend you get this.
