Freakwater "scheherazade"
I have no idea what a Scheherazade is but freakwater
is a slang name for moonshine, which im sure MH was aware of!
anyway...
band hail from Louisville,Kentucky...
they've released nine albums previous to this one but ive never heard of them.
album is very much in line with the single I posted yesterday...
sounds a bit Carter Family in places and folky in places also with a hint
of old fashioned country(but that is few and far between), so i'll stick to
folk for the most part...
a nice album but judging rom MH's comments in relation to the single I guess
he wont like this one.
me, I like it and since playing it have placed an order for it.
from the album:

The things you have to do for love........
Scheherazade is a legendary Persian queen who is the storyteller in One Thousand and One Nights.
The story, which was written many hundreds of years ago, tells of a Persian king who married a young girl every night. At the end of every night she would send his new wife to have her head chopped off. He had already killed 3000 women in this way.
Then, one day, Scheherazade heard about the king. She said she wanted to spend the night with him. Her father disagreed, but she still went. She spent all night telling him a story. At the end of the night she stopped the story at an exciting moment. The king wanted to hear the end of the story, but Scheherazade said he would have to wait until the next night to hear the rest.
The next night she finished the story and began another one, which she again stopped when it was dawn. The king had to wait another night to hear the rest of the story. Scheherazade kept this up for 1001 nights. She told him 1001 stories. In the end the king had fallen in love with Scheherazade and they already had three children, so he did not have her executed.[SUP][1][/SUP]
