Synopsis
Product Description
Album recorded to benefit Anchorage singer-drummer - performer-teacher-writer "Sourdough" Mike "Pinky" McDonald after he became seriously ill in the 2001.
"It was the musical goal of this session to bring as many diverse musicians together in as many out-of-the-ordinary combinations as possible. Blues & rockabilly guitarist Joey Fender plays a solo on jazz lady Melissa Bledsoe Fischer's composition In A Small Town, and also solos with Ska band Nervis Rex. Blues organist Chris Alexander appears with Nervis Rex, and almost everybody else. Accordionist Marge Ford of The Alaska Polka Chips plays with Melissa Bledsoe Fischer and with The Backstreet Blues Band. The combinations were endless, and they were Great!
The sessions were fun. The sessions were moving. It was three days of
different people working together in ways they had never attempted before, and it has resulted in the coolest and biggest compilation of Anchorage musicians that we have ever seen. There's Nervis Rex, Miss Alice Welling, Melissa Bledsoe Fischer, The Soulman Sam Band, Mr. Whitekeys, The Backstreet Blues Band, Killer Rabbit, Kenny Blackwell, Big Mitch, Blue Earth, Stu Schulman, Jeanene Walker, Will Triplett, and Mike himself. There are blues songs, country tunes, big swing grooves, and ska mania on the same CD! It was all done as close to LIVE as possible with a minimum of overdubbing and virtually no electronic instruments."
