Ann-Margret's Christmas Carol Collection....$12.99
(click CD for tracklisting) Quantity:	How does the woman do it? Ann-Margret turned 64 this year, and I swear that she still possesses more fired-up sex appeal and stylish glamour in her little pinky than Britney Spears has in her entire carcass. Wow. The star of "Bye Bye Birdie," "Viva Las Vegas" and "Tommy," Ann-Margret has the patented purr, the delightfully kittenish intonation, the verve, the everything that a legendary icon of her status should have. Ann-Margret's Christmas Carol Collection is exactly what a fan would hope for--and even better than one might expect. After all these years, Ann-Margret's voice remains sweetly seductive and remarkably intact. She exudes satin with a hint of huskiness on eleven holiday favorites and one "Bonus Song" ("Jesus Loves Me"). The Jordanaires (www.jordanaires.com), the world-famous "doowop" group that celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2000, provides impressive back-up vocal support on four tracks. The band's accompaniment provides just the right touch--smooth, very professional, and not too intrusive. The mood is playful, yet sophisticated, throughout; the tempo is often luxuriously languid; and there is an occasional country kick. This delightful album opens with Ann-Margret's gentle, yet sultry, interpretation of "The Christmas Song." Soooo sweet! She really ramps up the energy on "Jingle Bells," an upbeat treatment that had me swinging in my chair. Perhaps my favorite track is "I'll Be Home for Christmas," which vividly showcases Ann-Margret's magnificent strengths. For the most part, these arrangements are tasteful and traditional, in a jazzy sort of way. There are, however, occasional surprises to keep the project bubbling; for example, playful orchestration pumps a little surfer excitement into "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." The Jordanaires are in especially fine form on "Go Tell It on the Mountain," providing rhythmic harmonies that electrify the well-known gospel tune. For her legions of loyal fans, buying Ann-Margret's Christmas Carol Collection is a no-brainer. And for those who are somehow not familiar with the amazing A-M, consider making this classy assortment of Christmas carols your very own this holiday season. You won't be sorry! --Carol Swanson (Reviewed in 2005) More From the Web site: Born in Sweden but adopted by America, she is the consummate entertainer. One of the world's most glamorous and versatile superstars, she has twice been nominated for an Academy Award, won five Golden Globe Awards, and received five Emmy nominations. She draws sell-out crowds in Las Vegas, Atlantic City and Radio City Music Hall and is a three-time winner of the "Female Star of the Year" award given by the United Motion Picture Association.

The Gospel People Love Revue: Sounds of Texas, Nashville, Florida and Pacific Northwest....WAS $14.99, NOW $5.00!
(click CD for tracklisting) Quantity:	It was a very good year, the year 2007, when we recorded, layered, mixed, mastered and edited the tracks which became THE GOSPEL PEOPLE LUV REVUE album. And what a happy time it was for us to re-unite most of the principal artists from our 2002 Grammy Award-Winning tribute album to the great James Blackwood, WE CALLED HIM MR. GOSPEL MUSIC. Back in their starring roles for our new production are The Jordanaires (James called them the greatest-ever backing vocal band), Larry Ford (James called him "the finest tenor in gospel music--period!") and The Light Crust Doughboys (James chose them to be his collaborators in fresh and innovative "gospel western swing"). Added to our recording team since the Grammy win of 2002, and Grammy Award Nominees in the Gospel field for recent adventures on Greenhaw Records, are Larry "T-Byrd" Gordon (I call him a genius of soul gospel) and Nokie Edwards (I call him the greatest-ever instrumental combo lead guitarist). Jazz great Shorty Rogers has always said that it's easy to make a hit record or a Grammy-Winning record, "All you need is God in the booth with you." I believe God was in the booth with us for our previous album joining the above-mentioned greats. And I believe God was in the booth this time for THE GOSPEL PEOPLE LUV REVUE album and the blending once again of The Jordanaires, Larry, The Light Crust Doughboys, T-Byrd, Nokie..and me. There's something on this album for all fans of classic Gospel music, particularly fans of southern and country gospel music. There's even a sprinkling of classical and surf to keep things a bit cutting-edge. And last-but-not-least, there's James Blackwood himself on this album, the southern gospel singer of the century, in spirit and in song, for it was James who brought many of us together. And to James Blackwood, on behalf of all of us on THE GOSPEL PEOPLE LUV REVUE album--"we'll see you at the Gate..." -----Art Greenhaw

Lugosi: Hollywood's Dracula : Original Motion Picture Soundtrack....~~$14.99~~ $5.00 - SUPER SPECIAL PRICE
(click CD for tracklisting) Quantity:	This official soundtrack offers original period music from Lugosi's films, a rare 1932 novelty song recorded in tribute to the film White Zombie, and modern versions of Lugosi-related music by Art Greenhaw. The disc also includes a variety of radio shows with Lugosi, including a duet with Boris Karloff. The soundtrack is approxminately 75 minutes of material, all completely unique from any of the DVD extras. From the start, dedicated Lugosi scholar, Gary Don Rhodes and musical collaborator Art Greenhaw (a Texas-based composer, arranger, and musician) were apparently undeterred by their limited budget. Instead, they turned that potential liability into an asset by making judicious use of existing soundtrack material, and augmenting it with Greenhaw's original music and his new arrangements of existing melodies. Further, Rhodes located rare, seldom-heard Lugosi radio broadcasts, mining them for moments that sum up Bela's special appeal. The result is unique - the last a much-over-used word, yes, but one that best describes this CD. For instance, take Greenhaw's treatment of the overture to Tchaikovsky's "Swan Lake", the Dracula signature melody, interpreted here three times - first by piano, baritone saxophone, and (hold on) banjos, playing the melody as a lively fox trot. I know this seems peculiar, but Greenhaw and the Dallas Banjo Band make it work. I don't believe I've ever heard as effective a mix of 19th-century European classicism and 20th-century Americana. "Swan Lake" turns up again in Greenhaw's pleasingly orchestrated version dominated by electric organ, and, lastly, as "Swan Lake Rock", the arranger's audacious and completely successful melding of the Tchaikovsky piece with the Ventures-style guitar. The cut is simultaneously rockin' and traditionally melodic. I loved it. Greenhaw?s other adaptations/arrangements of existing melodies are no less clever. Original compositions include Greenhaw's "A Hunchback Named Ygor", a regrettably brief piece dominated by melancholy oboe; and "Child of the Night", a sincere Rhodes-Greenhaw collaboration that seizes upon Bartok, and other early 20th-century modernists, for inspiration. -excerpts from FilmFax Magazine, July 1998

Thanks to my idol in guitar, Nokie Edwards, my fondest Christmas memories include not only the family and spiritual things, but also the playing over and over again of THE VENTURES' CHRISTMAS ALBUM with Nokie on lead guitar. We have sincerely tried to capture a lot of the "good times-Americana" sounds associated with guitars, girls, dancing and swing music, and we've seasoned it all with the folk, country and gospel sounds of The Light Crust Doughboys and our southwestern musical heritage.

A SURF 'N' SWING/FRET 'N' STRING CHRISTMAS! — Art Greenhaw bass guitar/electric guitar/vocals/producer The Light Crust Doughboys, est. 1931 and still running strong!

All the 'Boys are giving it their "live" all, sensing that they'll never be together again in this recording environment, re-creating sounds that have thrilled fans of their stage shows for years.

Folk and Blues of the American Southwest: The Light Crust Doughboys....$14.99

LONE STAR SITAR....$14.99 ART GREENHAW, VATSAL DAVE, NEEL BHATT, LARRY "T-BYRD" GORDON
(click CD for tracklisting) Quantity:	Album Notes by Art for 3 of the 13 performances on this album: PIPELINE MEDLEY "Pipeline" is among the greatest of the American surf-rock anthems, and I've now had the high honor of recording this instrumental classic with not only the Guru of Lone Star Sitar, Vatsal Dave, but also my biggest guitar influence, Nokie Edwards, famous lead guitarist with The Ventures. This medley is one of the most rewarding of our arrangements to me, as it mystically morphs into Indian classical music, then returns to twangy guitar, then back to Sir Sitar. "Pipeline" is a surf term meaning a very large hollow part of an ocean wave. Listen as the musicians take you on an exciting ride through unpredictable waters. Why, even T-Byrd's saxophone is in there --riding the waves in some difficult maneuvers! GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY MEDLEY Can any song that blends so many of my favorite styles of music be any cooler than this? A part of my band's --The Light Crust Doughboys-- stage repertoire, this evergreen, American song has its roots in the singing, movie cowboy groups. I first learned it, though, courtesy of The Ventures. Don Wilson, guitar player on the original Ventures' recording of "Ghost Riders" in 1961, will forever be in my personal Book of Dreams for inviting me to close The Ventures' January 2006 show in Anaheim, California's Convention Center by playing bass guitar with the group on stage for their finale. I've already picked out cowboy hats for Vatsal, Neel and T-Byrd for this arrangement's and our debut in India! AMAZING GRACE There's a tradition with The Light Crust Doughboys that we include at least one gospel song in all our concerts. This practice dates back many years to the 1930s, when The Light Crust Doughboys included a gospel "cowboy hymn" on almost every radio broadcast and on almost every stage show. The original boss man of The Light Crust Doughboys didn't want the group playing for dances. I think it's probably because he didn't know how to dance! Our Lone Star Sitar version here of "Amazing Grace" features an alternate melody--chosen because this tune and its minor keys compliment the sitar ensemble. Even though this is a heartfelt, spiritual selection, I hope you will sing along to the famous words of this song---and, by the way, feel free to also dance as the Spirit moves you.

20TH CENTURY GOSPEL: FROM HYMNS TO BLACKWOOD BROTHERS TRIBUTE TO CHRISTIAN COUNTRY....~~$12.99~~ $9.99 - SUPER SPECIAL PRICE Grammy Award Nominated
(click CD for tracklisting) Quantity:	Grammy Award Nominated Editor's Review, CD UNIVERSE Recording information: 2004. Among music fans, the phrase "they just don't make records like they used to..." ranks with the most commonly heard complaints. 20th CENTURY GOSPEL is a record exactly like they used to make, and may be just the thing for nostalgia-buffs looking for a touch of the old in the 21st century. Masterminded by Art Greenhaw, latter-day leader of Western-swing pioneers the Light Crust Doughboys, the album is a good-vibe-packed mix of Southern gospel, Nashville Sound-style country, and instrumental guitar rock. Often sounding like the jukebox playlist from some mythical Southwestern 1950s coffee shop, the album features a rich, reverb-drenched production style reminiscent of Chet Atkins's best work. Greenhaw's manly baritone is warm and inviting, and when backed by vocal-group legends the Jordanaires ("Gospel Woman," "Welcome to My World"), the resultant sound suggests the glory days of Elvis Presley and Jim Reeves. Guitar god and former Ventures member Nokie Edwards guests on several tracks ("Ode to Joy," "The Great Speckled Bird") and his sound has never been twangier. A pristinely recorded and expertly played slice of truly American music, 20th CENTURY GOSPEL is an uplifting work that resonates with the participants' obvious love of making music.

This CD is very special to me because it blends the talents of my favorite guitarist, Nokie Edwards, with the finest in Texas Country Swing talent... The Light Crust Doughboys and Tom Brumley. The Doughboys provide the unique and smooth rhythm foundation for the experienced soloing of Nokie Edwards and Tom Brumley. Tom’s steel guitar gives a haunting liquid beauty to these classic songs. His immense talent and precision is perfectly obvious throughout. Art Greenhaw, this CD’s producer/engineer and bassist/vocalist for the Doughboys, has waited a long time to finally perform with his guitar hero, Nokie Edwards — A treat leaving guitarists everywhere envious. Nokie (former lead guitarist of The Ventures) comes to this CD bringing his strong, early roots in country music. With obvious bias from Art and myself, Nokie has the fingers, style, tone and precision that launched a million guitarists. His technique continues to inspire young guitarists around the world and earns him the eternal, well-deserved title “King of Guitar”. “Adventure in County Swing” is the only and perfect title for this CD. The blended talents and styles of these fine musicians are an adventure in listening. The cover of this CD gives us a delightful allusion to Nokie’s historical past and a stroll down memory lane. Run, Don’t Walk to your CD player! Bob Sickler-Webmaster Nokie Edwards Fan Club
