notes

Ed Englerth is an artist in the true sense. He has many years experience in music. He has written thousands of songs and has seen some success in his writing by having a few groups record and perform his songs. Ed is a pioneer in the Folk, Rock and Hard Rock scene playing in 70's bands such as Aslan and Earthen Vessel.

Today though Ed's style is a mix of folk, blues, jazz and experimental music. His compositions could easily be filed under thinking man's music. Intelligent song crafting is his strongest quality. Like modern day folk artists, he covers issues of faith, social justice, love lost & love found as well as songs dealing with struggles of life. His music is moody and intelligent whose lyrical depth flows beneath the surface of simplistic rhetoric.

ED Englerth has played music with a lot of different people in many situations. Some of these are: Ray White
(Frank Zappa), Kenny Meeks (Sixpence None The Richer), Joe English (Wings), Robin Robbins (Bob Seger), John Lawry (Petra), Jan Krist, Ben Brown, Jim Cole, Aracely, Scott Roley, Dave Perkins, Donny Hartman, Xalt, Armada, Linear Action Band, Harvey Jet, Aslan, and Earthen Vessel.

He is the founding member and songwriter for the band LAB. As a solo artist ED has several recorded projects. The latest CD is called, "D.I.A.L. Business". ED recently released an all instrumental jazz CD called, "The ED Englerth Jazz Quartet." Other singer/songwriter/guitarist CDs include, "Anything But Hope," "Live at the State Grounds Coffeehouse," "Little Bit Of Me Everywhere," "Rational?," and "PINGO."

Shake, Rattle, Folk, Jazz, Blues, and More......
SHAKE . . . Disturbing the warp and woof, shattering the serene, unnerving the unresponsive, rhythms that make you sweat. RATTLE . . . What awakens one from dreams, from that place of comfortable complacency? From the distillation of life in this world come the images from ED. FOLK . . . Music that verbalizes attitudes and dimensions. Acoustic, it carries the energy from the power of the song rather than the power of the amplifier. JAZZ . . . Freedom to express from the long linage of the soul. BLUES. . . . Refuses to ignore hardship in this life and our response to it. More . . . unconfinable and never ending.

As a solo artist ED has several recorded projects. As you can see, Ed Englerth is a workaholic, where in the seventies he played with lots of different musicians and bands. In the eighties he wrote lots of songs for the LAB band. And he had also time to release some solo records, like this “D.I.A.L. Business”, where he shows all his habilities of bluesman and rocker. With lots of special guests (believe in me...) he presents us with good songs like “All The Count Of Three” ("Eddie Vedder" and "Pearl Jam" would love to record this), the sweet title track, the experimental “If It’s Like This On Earth” and the pop “Long Time”. Is it possible to call him a genious? I think so... there are so many aspects in his songs that we can explore and listen and, at the same time they seem to be so easy to listen... that is the magic of music... “It’s Hard”, the rock “Angry” and “Wishing Well” are good examples. "D.I.A.L. Business" contain 15 Tracks - released by "Silent Planet Promotions", a company which has a heart of service to all it’s patrons; bands, venues, labels, the media and fans, which is always in a state of flux to move with the artist and culture. The main musicians are: Ed Englerth - Vocals & Guitars, Alan Dunst - Percussion, Don Cheeseman - Bass, Bob Hartig - Sax, Background Vocals & Rainstick. If you like all Zappa songs, that’s for you...
