Release Notes:
Kelly Joe's fans have been anxious for him to
release a live CD for quite some time now. Tap the
Red Cane Whirlwind represents a long-awaited
opportunity to hear Kelly Joe recorded on disc
performing solo in concert.
Produced by Lee Townsend, the new CD is pure
unadulterated Kelly Joe Phelps at his finest
recorded in the intimate environments of two venues
in which Kelly Joe has been performing for a long
time - McCabe's in Santa Monica and The Freight and
Salvage in Berkeley.
The repertoire includes seven favorite Kelly Joe
originals, including "Jericho", "Tommy", "Not So Far
to Go", "Fleashine", "Cardboard Box of Batteries",
"Gold Tooth" and "Waiting for Marty" plus
astonishing versions of two classic cover songs -
"Hard Time Killin' Floor Blues" by Skip James and "I
Am the Light of the World" by Reverend Gary Davis.
Engineered by Shawn Pierce and mastered by Greg
Calbi.
