RHR190 - The Tide [Remastered, New Tracks] - Lucy Kaplansky

This Lucy Kaplansky recording debut was Americana Radio's first "Hot Pick." This stunning new version has been completely remastered in accordance with modern technologies and includes two unreleased tracks not heard on the original: an alt-country retake of Lennon and McCartney's "I've Just Seen a Face" and Jesse Winchester's classic "Everybody Knows But Me." Along with knock-out reinterpretations of songs by writers like Richard Thompson, Sting, Tom Russell, Bill Morrisey and Cliff Eberhardt, "The Tide" is the first showcase of her own wonderful songwriting as manifested by the three strong tracks: "The Tide," "Somebody's Home" and "You Just Need a Home." Today Lucy Kaplansky is one of acoustic music's brightest and most revered stars, but this recording is where it all began!

About the Artist Lucy Kaplansky was an up-and-coming folksinger in New York City's '80s and '90s Village music scene, but after a few years she dropped out of music to pursue a doctorate in Psychology and eventually opened a successful practice in the city. Yet through it all she never quit singing and was often pulled back into the studio by friends like Nanci Griffith, Suzanne Vega, John Gorka and Shawn Colvin (her former singing partner) to add her trademark harmonies to their albums. In 1973 Shawn Colvin finally convinced her to go into the studio to record an album all her own and this stunning recording (produced by Shawn Colvin) is the result. Red House Records eagerly released it in 1994 and "The Tide" was the very first "Hot Pick" on the "newly-debuted" Americana radio chart. Before long Kaplansky found herself very much in demand and touring so heavily that something had to giveand it was the psychology career. She has never looked back.

Associated Press "Clearly among the largest talents on the acoustic scene today."
