Gary Gorence's Debut CD, Desert Trippin' To Hit Stores Early July

PRLog (Press Release) – Jul 09, 2008 – A rock-n-rolling album release, Gary Gorence's debut CD, Desert Trippin', is available July 09, 2008. Blues Farm Records indie label has been a one man show for some time, but with the addition of solo rock artist Gary Gorence, the label is now referred to as “the little label that could.”

The CD has 12 songs, and from the moment the slide guitar picks up on It's Been So Long, you are aware that it's more than just new rock-n-roll music. The album is infused with blues and southern rock moments, but it is strung together by something else, the undeniable open road and southwestern hot air. It is the raw, wandering force throughout the Album.

Gary Gorence, Southwestern Rock-n-Roll, is the official website, http://garygorence.webs.com, and of course, there's the Blues Farm Records label website... all loaded with tidbits for fans, and devoted to music enthusiasts. You can sample all of the new songs, and they are available for individual download via Amazon.com and at his website.

The album boasts some of Santa Fe's classic rockers. Gary handled most of the guitar work himself, except for the tasty lead on It's Been So Long, by Mike Montiel. On the bottom, Steve Stoner performed on drums and Bobby Glenn on Bass, as well as backing vocals. Tracks were recorded at Oliver Music Studios in Santa Fe, NM.

The CD is issued by Blues Farm Records. http://bluesfarm.webs.com. The album is available, July 9, 2008.
 
Desert Trippin' is a journey of timeless travels, such as the steady moving opener, A Rebel With Good Intentions. The country bass line creates a slow, steady flow...maybe down the Pecos River. The grumbling bass lines that drive one through the New Mexico desert are again pushed on It's Been So Long. Beside the southwestern feel there is a river theme, both in lyric and musically, that makes sense when you see the album photos showing Gary wading out into the Pecos.

There are several songs just itching to reside on mp3 players, including Mirage, a song that showcases Gary's intuitive feel on slide guitar. It leaves the listener with images of red tinged cliffs blurring in the heat rising off the horizon. Feelin' Free delights with acoustic slide in pockets, and an acoustic strumming like a desert breeze in the early morning.

Gary Gorence fans will soak it up to hear the artist sing and play acoustic guitar on the simple and poignant All The Right Reasons.

The perfect debut for rock-n-roll music, the southwestern New Mexico sound, comes from the home of much great music. From Clovis, NM, Buddy Holly and Leann Rimes made their mark and great artists such as Waylon Jennings and others came to Clovis to make history. America has been waiting for this blend of south and southwest.
