Clovis, NM – October 16, 2006 – Before you spend your next hard-earned $20 on a major label release, go online to find the best do-it-yourself musicians and get great entertainment for less. Most independent artists charge 25 – 50 percent less than big name releases. Fields Of Glory costs just $9.00 and while it may not have big money production values, it comes with much more.
The CD has 17 songs, and each one is brilliant. Another acoustic outing for Sansietch, the legendary guitarist from New Mexico. On his last release, Acoustic River, he fed us an 8-song epic just to get warmed up. On Fields Of Glory, the artist has once again done everything. He writes the material, arranges it, performs and records it, and produces the entire work by himself.
With an extensive online presence on most all indie music sites including Jamwave, MySpace, Audiri, No 1 Band, etc., the best thing about Sansietch is he’s a Webmaster also. He has several websites, like his main Freewebs.com site, loaded with tidbits for fans. You can download several new songs for Free.
This is one of the best things about independent artists. You can download his box set booklet without even ordering it. All his lyrics are available in easy to use .doc formats. Sign up for the fan list or just play a video game. It’s all there! There’s even a Street Team program at http://www.freewebs.com/
The latest CD is again issued by Sansietch’s own record label, Blues Farm Studios. http://www.freewebs.com/
The title track has listeners wistfully celebrating the freedom and pleasure of the country in America’s farmlands. Call It Quits will have you groovin’ for more, with its bluesy feel and free flowing jazz bass line. Songs like Movin’ On and No Pay Day hearken back to a more straightforward time in country music. And the moving statement, This Ground, speaks out about the loss of American and other lives in the war.
Sansietch fans will rejoice once again to hear such fresh, real music, unadorned with string sections and percussion everywhere. Since Sansietch, a name derived from both the French language, and a Science Fiction language, mean without a place of refuge in times of trouble, it does make one wonder if this outlaw musician has finally found his niche in acoustic music. Buy both his acoustic CDs and still pay less than a major label release! Is this another example of how inconsequential and expensive major record labels have become? An acoustic master paves the way digitally.
