notes
This debut release from wild carrot was conceived as a demo recording and was originally released only on cassette for the purpose of acquiring work. Defined features Spencer Funk on vocals, guitar and mandolin and Pamela Temple on vocals and guitar. Recorded live with no overdubs, what you hear is what you get. Folks liked what they heard so much that demand from radio stations and fans led to a CD release in 1999. It features a sampling of the many genres of music Temple and Funk deliver in their shows: from jazz standards ("Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens") and blues (Delmore Brother's "Deep River Blues") to traditional and not-so-traditional folk tunes ("Big Road Blues", Jean Ritchie's "The L&N Don't Stop Here Anymore"), show tunes (a carrotized version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow") and award-winning originals such as "These Hard Times", featured on numerous compilation CDs, "Waters of Truth", chosen as the lead track for WCSX radio's (Detroit, MI) "Favorites of Over Easy" CD, and "Colorado Melody" which is the "perfect vehicle for Pamela's lilting voice" (Larry Nager, Music Editor, Cincinnati Enquirer). Defined was reissued in 2001 by Falling Mountain Music.
