 The
Hammered Dulcimer Bill Spence with
Fennig’s All-Star String Band FHR 302CD $16.00 PostPaid

Includes
all the instrumental cuts from our original 1973 LP The Hammered Dulcimer,
plus 13 from 1975's Saturday
Night In The Provinces featuring
Tom McCreesh on fiddle, Joan Pelton and Toby Stover on piano, and John Pedersen
on banjo. Includes Gaspe Reel, the original theme from PBS TV's popular
Crockett's Victory Garden. This is the album which helped in great measure
to jump-start the hammered dulcimer craze, and many current players credit this
recording as the single most important influence in their decision to play the
hammered dulcimer. 42 great
country dance tunes. Over 65 minutes of the feel good music folks have been
talking about since 1973. |

The
Hammered Dulcimer Strikes Again &
Fennigmania Bill
Spence with Fennig’s All-Star String Band FHR 303CD
$16.00 PostPaid An
historic compilation of two great LPs originally released in 1977 and 1981. This
one features both George Wilson (fiddle, banjo, guitar, bass) and Tom McCreesh
on fiddle, with Toby Stover on piano. The music here gives a hint of our shift
from Irish and American tunes to the inclusion of French Canadian tunes, thanks
to fiddler George and his love for music from north of the border. There's also
a couple of nice songs from George and Bill. |
