notes

General Delivery

Serendipity can happen when two talented musicians who happen to be friends and kindred spirits get together and set about making music in a casual and relaxed atmosphere.

Armed with acoustic instruments including resophonic guitar, bass, Hawaiian guitar, mandolin,ukulele and a fews days off of their respective bands busy touring schedules, Ekoostik Hookah and The Colin John Band, Cliff Starbuck and Colin John have created a rootsy and rollicking acoustic album with one foot respectfully placed in the past and the other firmly planted in the future.

General Delivery features individualized stylistic acknowledgements to Bukka White,Mississippi John Hurt, Robert Johnson, Reverend Gary Davis, Sol Hoopii,Skip James,Blind Willie Johnson and others while showcasing and allowing Cliff's formidable bluegrass and Americana influences to meld seamlessly and shiningly with Colin's open-tuned blues and Hawaiian-influenced guitar excursions.

We hope that General Delivery finds its way to your cd player, ears and soul, so that you too may experience the serendipity that is the result of this collaboration.

  • Five Stars!!!!!
    author: Desiree Douglas/B97 Radio

    If you love your folksy, twangy blues, General Delivery is a MUST HAVE!!! What a great album! Another album has yet to give it the boot from my CD player! Highly recommended!

  • Wonderful Acoustic Blues, Great Playing and Singing
    author: Steve Rayburn

    I saw Cliff and Colin play together afterhours at one of Ekoostik Hookah's Ledges shows and these two are fantastic together. Cliff plays great bass and mandolin and Colin is a master slide guitarist. If you like old time blues with a pronounced twang, this is a great album!

  • Great acoustic blues cd!
    author: Stargazer

    I picked this cd up at Cliff and Colin's show in Galena, Ohio at the end of July. Cliff and Colin are two exceptionally talented musicians as well as two great guys and the music they played live that night was magic. I have listened to the cd everyday and it's now purposely stuck in my cd player and won't be leaving anytime soon. If you are fans of Garcia & Grisman and love early acoustic blues, then you'll love this. Highly Recommended! Peace, Stargazer
