    "...Fitzgerald’s hard-boiled tales of loners and open spaces, combined with his evocative guitar work, creates an epic sound...not so much country-rock as high desert rock...there is a wind-carved harshness and mystical poetry to the songs..." ~ Michael McCall

    Ride from the windswept American high plains to the desolate terrain of a moonlit Delta night with The Flying Dutchman, The Last Time, Oklahoma Road, Outlaw Blues, Another Sun Goes Down, Straw Dogs, Right Between The Eyes, In These Hills, Your Imagination, and Bonus Track, Seven Keys.

    Digitally processed from analog master tapes recorded in Nashville at Sound Emporium Studios A & B, Silverline/Goldline, and Dream Kitchen Nashville.
    Remastered to digital format by Gary Laney at Nautilus Recording Studio in San Angelo, Texas.
    CD mastering at Dream Kitchen Nashville.

    The session personnel are some of Nashville's best, and the performances are outstanding. The Digipak sleeve and production insert card feature photos shot on locations during filming of the motion picture Into The Wild. Everything comes to you packed inside one of three themed presentation envelopes, sealed and wrapped in a loose, crystal clear bag.

    Produced by James Humter, Andy McLenon & Jack Emerson for Praxis; Gary Laney, Mark Brown & Ed Fitzgerald.

  • The West has never been so Wild! Saddle up and hit the trail with these offbeat fables of things that go bump in the night among the tumbleweeds. A collection of eleven original western stories of mystery, suspense, and speculation that blend the history of the old west with the classic traditions of pulp fiction.

    Edited by R.D. Williamson, Westward Strange features stories by R.D. Williamson, Ezekial Marsh, Matthew Hernando, J.Edward Fitzgerald (Christmas Cactus & God Made Cain), Kenneth Johnson, Herbert Hamilton, Jan Campbell and Washita Red. Each saga is handsomely illustrated with line drawings and icons by Trudy Williamson.

    "Westward Strange takes an off-beat approach to western story-telling, diverging from much of the weird west and western detective fiction. The tone ranges from radio westerns to the Twilight Zone, with similar storytelling values. The authors take their cue more from traditional [pulp style and modern lit] models instead of the 'new fiction' seen in much current material in this field; they're creative but leave room for and set going the reader's imagination. They do a good job of it too with first rate, very readable tales, notably from Ed Fitzgerald, KR Johnston, Jan Campbell, Matt Hernando and Herb Hamilton. The tales from editor R D Williamson are not bad either, though further off the reservation. Many beautiful pen and ink drawings illustrate the tales well. This is a keeper of a book, well designed and produced and full of reading entertainment like a good Western should." ~ NGC - Amazon - 5 Stars     ... more
