Tunes For The Troops
 



 
**Artist Showcase**





Shawn Colvin is one of the leading lights of the so-called "new folk movement" that began in the late '80s. Although she grew out of the somewhat limited "woman with a guitar" school, she kept the form fresh with a diverse approach, avoiding the genre's clichéd sentiments and all-too-often formulaic arrangements in favor of a more personal, pop-influenced style. Colvin's debut record won the Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album in 1991, but it was her 1997 single, "Sunny Came Home," that firmly catapulted her into the mainstream. Although she never revisited that commercial peak again, Colvin still commanded a broad, loyal following into the subsequent decades.

Colvin was born in Vermillion, South Dakota, on January 10, 1956. By the age of ten, she had discovered a passion for music and taught herself guitar. After moving twice -- first to London, Ontario, and then to Carbondale, Illinois -- Colvin formed the Shawn Colvin Band, a hard rock outfit whose high-energy demands soon strained her voice. She relocated to Austin, Texas, where she joined the Western swing band the Dixie Diesels and sang with the band until nodes forced a temporary retirement at age 24. In 1983, she moved to New York, where she found a home in the city's singer/songwriter scene and built a following in the surrounding area.

All music is removed on Monday.
Thanks to all the DeeJay's for their time & effort providing entertainment for the Troops!

Glad you're better.

Gotta keep busy. Idle hands are the devil's playground.

The problem with "Go Now" is that some idiot engineer pinned the VU meter for the entire song.

The clever idea for "Riders on the Storm" was singing and whispering the lyrics at the same time. Morrison wasn't the first to do it. Here is a song from a year earlier that uses the same technique.

The Moody Blues: "Don't You Feel Small"

Good evening, Sis!
Minette is curled up in the wood box by the wood stove.
Silly cat!
Looked in there for a piece of wood to put in the stove, and it meowed!
