Our Resident Classic Rock raconteur Bobby Whear details the remarkable talents of one of Damariscotta's brightest musical stars, the Scotti River Trio.
Whear describes their truly unique sound as "smoky, rocky," but as you'll hear, they're definitely a group whose mix of abilities makes for a fine blend of styles. The tracks produced here by Paul Mellyn, Stephen B. Jones, and Scott Elliot explore many challenging depths, including an amazing version of the Rollings Stones' "Hipshake," which appeared on Exile on Main Street that is, simply, BETTER than the original.
Also sampled in this session are tunes by Bob Dylan ("Blind Willy McTell"), a wonderful medley of Neil Young songs, an updated version of "A Man of Constant Sorrow," and several more. Check this out.
