notes

This is Pierce's second CD and the logical next step with a little more production, a few more guitar instrumentals and many styles of songwriting.

Pierce starts to show his Celtic side with the guitar instrumental 'The Highlands' and the moody ghost/sea story set on the shores of Scotland called Genevieve.

He continues his environmental side with Younger Brother which talks to us about the Mother through a tribe in the Andes and even tempts us with true meaning in 'The Secret Of Life'.

He also tackles the the difficult theme of backyard bathtub shrines from Mary's point of view in his song 'Oh Mary'.

Instruments included are acoustic guitar(of course), washboard, violin, harmonica, dobro, bass, accordion, drums, and piano.

  • They just keep getting better and better

    Pierce has done it again! Each album gets better, his voice mellower, his instrumentals more graceful. We've become avid Pierce Campbell fans and own all of the CDs. As are his others, this album is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
