    Crown of Serpents , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 676min
    With the discovery of a campaign journal from an American Revolutionary War officer who fought against the Iroquois Indians, the US Army calls in their top field historian to assess its contents. Jake Tununda, combat vet and half-Seneca Indian, is stunned when he gleans from the journal's cryptic Masonic passages clues to the location of an ancient shaman's crown once protected by the White Deer Society, a secret cult of his forefathers. Jake soon realizes why his ancestors' history was best kept buried. And why peaceful, rural central New York's Finger Lakes region can be deadlier than any battlefield he had ever faced. Crown of Serpents, a mystery thriller set in the former heartland of the Iroquois Empire, takes Jake on a fast-paced hunt to find the elusive crown - and protect it. He teams up with Rae Hart, an alluring state police investigator, as they snake their way across a politically turbulent landscape marked with murder, arson, lies, and deceit. Deciphering codes, digging up war loot, and fending off the henchmen of billionaire Alex Nero, a ruthless Indian casino magnate, Jake and Rae's survival skills are put to the test. The clues to the crown ultimately lead them deep within sacred Indian caves hidden under the abandoned Seneca Army Depot where the magnitude of the crown's power is revealed. ungekürzt.

    The Spellman Files: A Novel, Hörbuch, Digital, 341min
    Isabel Spellman's life consists of 24-hour surveillance, routine investigations into her acquaintances, and listening devices planted in her deadbolt-locked room. For a 28-year-old in a family composed almost entirely of private investigators or former cops, the tools of the trade turn typical family dysfunction into commonplace espionage. Aptly described as Nancy Drew meets Dirty Harry, Isabel has always lived in the shadow of David, her "perfect" younger brother, a lawyer. Her younger sister, 14-year-old Rae, is addicted to "recreational surveillance" and anything with obscene amounts of sugar, and can be found, when the going gets tough, drowning her sorrows in a soda at Isabel's favorite bar. Rae's namesake, Uncle Ray, routinely disappears on benders the family dubs "Lost Weekends". When their parents hire Rae to follow Isabel in order to ascertain the identity of a suspected new boyfriend, Isabel snaps and quits the business. That's easier said than done, though, with wiretapping and coercion part of the family dynamic. Her parents make her a deal: solve one last case, the Snow case, and her employment contract with Spellman Inc. will be declared null and void. The kicker: the Snow case is decades old, ice cold, and more twisted than a pretzel. Isabel throws herself headlong into what she thinks is the most crucial case of her life. And then her sister Rae disappears, and "crucial" takes on a whole new meaning. The Spellman Files is a hilarious and at times suspenseful novel about a modern family with a highly unique way of loving, living, and making a living - often times in harmony. Language: English.

    Embracing Every Moment
    Biography Info You'll be captivated by Tena Rae's magnificent vocals and the original heartfelt songs on her new CD, Embracing Every Moment. The album's upbeat single release, Nobody's Watching, is being launched in the Texas Music Radio Tour 2010. Early CD sales include the free DVD video, Katy K, a visual treat for fans of the album's first track about Tena Rae's relationship with her horse. Both on stage and on CD, Tena Rae's vocal magic is matched by her ability to enchant audiences with her energy and passion. Her eloquent delivery of lyrics speak from her heart, especially in her original songs inspired by life experiences. Maybe it was the years of training in musical theater that endowed Tena Rae with such a rich and glorious voice. Her musical journey started when she was a child in Ponca City, Oklahoma. Her talented family had roots in gospel, pop, country and opera. "My father played guitar. He wrote and sang funny songs. My grandpa was a fiddle player. My great grandma wrote music and played several instruments. She was the motivation behind The Helm Sisters (her four daughters), a well-known performing group in the 1930's." At age four, Tena Rae was already singing solos in church. When she was still a child, her family moved to Houston where she quickly immersed herself in the city's vibrant arts community. She played a leading role in a long-running regional production of Annie, and then wowed the crowds in Little Mary Sunshine - both at Houston's Theatre Under the Stars (TUTS). Between many additional performing engagements, young Tena Rae became a busy model for the Neal Hamil Agency and Bill Young Productions. She appeared in virtually every medium, from print advertising to music videos. This work took Tena Rae to exotic locations such as Cancun and Cozumel. But Tena Rae never left behind her passion for music. For 10 years, she was lead vocalist for the Eclipse Orchestra, often performing for audiences across the Southwestern US. During those years, she was also a lead vocalist at Houston's Swiss Chalet. She sang at several Houston Rockets and Astros games in the Astrodome. She frequently performed for non-profit organizations, including the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo. As Tena Rae's musical talents grew, so did her interest in country music. She was especially drawn to Dolly Parton, the most significant influence on her musical development. She sang at The Great Caruso of Houston with famous Howard Hartman and began writing her own songs. She was the lead actress in a music video for Vince Gill and Rodney Crowell, and she was the opening act at a Trisha Yearwood July 4th concert in Friendswood. Today she performs in many venues, and is often part of the Texas Music Opry circuit. Tena Rae's first CD, titled Tena Rae, was released in 2004 by Nashville producer Bobby Terry. This launched a multitude of concerts and public appearances around the country. The album and it's single, Every Time, received rave reviews from radio audiences and music commentators: "A lot of albums have only a couple of truly standout tunes, but Tena's CD is loaded with great songs sung greatly.' Larry Holden, Country Weekly, Jan. 20, 2004 "Her vocals, the production, and the melody are first rate.' Robert K. Oermann, Music Row Magazine, Jan. 2004 "Many performers, who have been in the music business for most of their lives, lack the range and power that Tena Rae has. She sings with confidence. It's her song in her style - she sings it as if she owns it!" Rick Newman, Silver Threads Music, 2004 Early Reviews of the new CD Embracing Every Moment and the single Nobody's Watching "A captivating beat with fun lyrics that every woman can relate to. A great mixture of background instrumentals. Tena's powerful vocals and noteable musicianship throughout the album prove that she can hold her own among artists such as Faith Hill and Martina McBride." Erin Bukofsky, Editor, Bryan Farrish Music, 2009 "Tena's delivery is dripping with emotion, and her songs are some of the best I've heard. Working with her in the studio is one of life's great joys." Doug Deforest, President/Producer, Lake Paradise Studio, 2009 "Tena Rae has that special 'something' that immediately captivates the listener.

    In My Sweet Time
    Roxy launched her Blues career in the 80s, when she quickly became known for her exciting live performances at clubs, concert halls and festivals throughout the U.S. and abroad. These performances secured her reputation as "the real deal" and "NEW YORK BLUES QUEEN.'' In recent years Roxy has appeared on the concert bill with Rod Piazza, Shamekia Copeland, Leon Russell, Marcia Ball, John Mayall, Saphire, Hubert Sumlin, Gatemouth Brown, Koko Taylor, The Black Crowes, and a host of others. In 2007, Roxy and her band performed at the renowned Montreux Jazz Festival, where they headlined two stages, including the Lake Geneva Blues Cruise. As a recording artist, Roxy has performed, produced and written the material for her four highly acclaimed CDs: HI HEEL BLUES (Monad Records), ROXY PERRY, NEW YORK BLUES QUEEN (BluePerry Hill Records), BACK IN BLUESVILLE (BluePerry Hill Records), and her most recent CD, IN MY SWEET TIME. Music from these CDs has been added to classic female Blues artist lists on radio stations throughout the world. In 2006, BACK IN BLUESVILLE was awarded BEST SELF-PRODUCED CD at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee. In 2007, Roxy was presented with the prestigious ARTIST OF THE YEAR award by the Westchester Arts Council, New York. Media recognition over the years has been extensive, from the syndicated radio program, PORTRAITS IN BLUE, to the most recent cover story and 6-page interview in the international magazine, BLUES ROCKS THE WORLD. Roxy's music continues to be heard regularly on MUSIC CHOICE, DIRECT TV, CLEAR CHANNEL and hundreds of radio stations, web and podcasts worldwide. Highlights for her previous release, ROXY PERRY, BACK IN BLUESVILLE include features on the legendary KING BISCUIT HOUR, and two-time designation as BLUESBREAKER OF THE WEEK on the HOUSE OF BLUES RADIO SHOW, hosted by Elwood Blues, along with many live performances and interviews on radio shows coast to coast. Reviewers have embraced Roxy's live and recorded work over the span of her career, her records consistently receiving stellar reviews in major publications such as Downbeat, Blues Revue, BluesMatters, Jazz Now! And BluesWax, among others. Roxy's third release on her label, BluePerry Hill Records, is a self-produced album entitled IN MY SWEET TIME. It is primarily original material at it's best, including Blues, R&B, Jump, Swing, Country, Jazz, Funk, Latin, Delta, Rock and Rockabilly. It also includes an original rendition of the Hank Williams, Sr. classic, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry. IN MY SWEET TIME features Roxy's bandmembers: Roxy Perry - vocals / harp, Chris Vitarello - guitar, Mike Ventimiglia -keyboards, Bob Fusco - bass, Linda Geiger - drums, and special guest players: Matt Rae - guitar, Hiro Suzuki -guitar, Matt Baxter - dobro, Mike Marble - drums, and Frosty Lawson - horns. You can see live performance videos of Roxy and the band on YouTube Reviews of Roxy's new CD ''IN MY SWEET TIME'' are all glowing! IN MY SWEET TIME ROOTSVILLE, BELGIUM Review by MVS IN MY SWEET TIME is the third release on Roxy's label, BluePerry Hill Records, following NY BLUES QUEEN and BACK IN BLUESVILLE. Her first Blues release, HI HEEL BLUES, was on Monad Records. All four are great offerings, but for me, IN MY SWEET TIME stands out as the best. It's a ''showstopper'' of a disc by a Blues woman who manages well all related genres and Blues styles as a vocalist, composer and producer. All the numbers are consistently well supported by her selection of highly competent musicians, some of which are credited as co-writers on six of the songs. IN MY SWEET TIME is a Blues triumph from the Big Apple (NYC), which is not known for an abundance of Blues artist's offerings. But in fact, this CD is, without a doubt, a triumph coming from any city (and needs to be rewarded)! From the first cut, this CD is a knockout! The splendid piano intro of Mike Ventimiglia on ''Bed of Blues'', sets the mood, reminiscent of the piano stylings that supported the vocals of classic female artists of bygone eras. This sound may be nostalgic, but it undoubtedly translates into the contemporary. Not to be overlooked on this album, is the diversified performances of guitarist, Chris Vitarello. An example of his versatility is particularly reflected on the song ''Easy For You.'' It begins as a rhythm & blues number, but transforms into a Latin groove midway, where Vitarello (guitar) and Perry (harp) trade licks. It then returns to an R&B breakdown with the vocal take of an unwrapped soul. Roxy's Blues harp and voice are a powerful combination throughout. Roxy's adept use of varied styles, Blues, R&B, Jump, Swing, Country, Jazz, Funk, Latin, Delta, Rock and even Rockabilly, result in the highest level of music and add personality to her songs on this self-produced album. Roxy's production choices reflect this beautifully. In her jump /swing song, "Roadmaster," she pays tribute to the Andrews Sisters' harmonies on her background vocals . Roxy interprets The Hank Williams Sr. classic, ''I'm. So Lonesome I Could Cry,'' with a lot of soul on top of a pure country approach to the song - And it works perfectly. Guitarist, Matt Rae's Telecaster work so skillfully replicates the pedal steel sound that he just may stand up and be counted as the New Danny Gattin. For me, all twelve songs compete with each other for the 'best' position. If I had to pick one song to highlight above the rest it would be a difficult task. I would say they are all good, with a small preference for the traditional Blues numbers, like the title song, ''IN MY SWEET TIME'' (Hiro Suzuki /guitar), which pays tribute to the gospel style, and ''LET ME HAVE MY REST'' for it's beautifully executed resophonic Dobro (Matt Baxter), and of course, Roxy's vocal and harp, present an authentic Delta sound. The clincher, "NOT BAD ENOUGH," puts both our feet back in the twenties era with it's totally nostalgic take. Roxy sang and produced it replicating the 78 sound with the crackling needle-on-disc effect. You can just envision the logo of the little dog listening at the big horn speaker to ''His Master's Voice'' on the old Victrola. Nobody is going to be able to tear this CD from my hands. MVS | Rootsville Roxy Perry "in my sweet time" | Blueberry Publishing 3868 BLUESSOURCE.COM Roxy Perry has been dubbed as the New York Queen of the Blues but her vision is wide-ranging on this new CD as she works through twelve cuts of blues, jazz, R&B, country and rock overtones as she notes on the back cover. Overall, Perry's vocals are blues-infused despite the genre description. The first cut of "Bed Of Blues" has pianist Mike Ventimiglia nicely introducing the sultry melody as Perry's supple vocal phrasing pleads for reconciliation. She then launches into R&B influenced tunes, "Easy For You" with scorching vocals enhanced by a lavish harmonica exercise and "Roadmaster" with it's jump melody and big band groove. The only cover on the CD is "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" (Hank Williams, Sr.) and Perry's aching vocals are sumptuous while the cry in her harmonica resonates with anguish. "Blues Comes To Call" is a swinging bluesy lament augmented by guitarist Hiro Suzuki's arresting solo. On "Goodbye Honey" Perry's rich vocals display an exquisite sense of timing. "Don't You Worry" is funky and the band's layers of sound propel Perry's repetitive exclamation "this ain't the worst day of my life." Perry's commanding harmonica playing enhances "That Night In Memphis." Returning to the blues, Perry is in her element on the last three tracks and leaves one wishing she had concentrated on more of this content. "Let Me Rest" features Matt Baxter on dobro and stomp box with Perry on vocals and harmonica-her enchanting vocals sizzle with emotion. The title cut "In My Sweet Time" has an alluring gospel-like melody and Perry's ethereal vocals meander from sweet to saucy. "Not Bad Enough" is reminiscent of Ma Rainey and is a duo with Perry on vocals and Ven

    Blue Black Night
    RAE BILLING - New Album 2008 - Blue Black Night After almost seven years of life since her last recording, Rae Billing has managed to drag herself back into the studio to record her third alt-country album. And it is a stellar recording in which the 'alt' nature of Rae's music is especially apparent on 'No Closer,' which follows in the footsteps of Gram Parson's 'Sin City' to create a riveting commentary on the times, and 'Shatter,' which peals back the skin to reveal a small agony. On 'The Dream' Garth Hudson (The Band) lends his trembling Rhodes accompaniment and the song is beautifully dark and spacious. Rae again works with one of Canada's most powerful producers, Peter J. Moore (Cowboy Junkies, Holly Cole, Oh Susannah) and good friends, Cleave Anderson (Blue Rodeo) on drums, Steve Koch (Ron Sexsmith) on guitar, Derrick Brady (Hawksley Workman) on bass, along with Matt Horner (Mary Margaret O'Hara)Greg Clarke (The Corndogs) and reuniting with Lucky Pete Lambert (Kensington Hillbillies) from Crybaby) on backup vocals. Maud Hudson also provides backup on 'Personal Jesus'. 'There is a depth to her songs few contemporaries have yet to hone.' Jason MacNeil, All Music Guide.
