Master of Contemporary Folk.......2001-12-08

Where does one find good contemporary folk music in the 21st century? Try Danny Schmidt's "Live at the Prism Coffeehouse" and "Enjoying the Fall."

Whether waxing philosophical in "Belief" and "Not Unlike Water" (Live...), or regional as in "Heaven" (Live...) and the celtic "McCreary's Pipes" (both albums), or simply playful in "Lucky" (Live...) or "Drunk at the Biltmore" (Fall...), Schmidt infuses all his songs with a good measure of poetry.

Schmidt's mastery of his Taylor is ably supported by just the right instrumentation: Roland Colella's fiddle and Bill Cardine's dobro on "Drunk at the Biltmore," Paddy League's bodhran on "McCreary's Pipes," and Peter Markush's cello on "Not Unlike Water" complete the mood, as does Joia Wood's highly competent vocal harmony. Folk is alive and thriving in Charlottesville.

Danny Schmidt Rolls Along His Blue Railroad Tracks.......2001-12-04

One time, in Danny's Virginia, I think, I saw a long freight train go by. I tried to count the cars but lost count, the gears and the metal clanking and knocking left me thinking about something else, I don't remember. I've tried to watch the waves on the water, to really look at the lines they make when they fall back into themselves, but always end up thinking about something else. Schmidt's music has this quality about it, this expanse of sound and images long enough and deep enough to take me off, first into it, and then somewhere else.

Haunting melodies and words from the heart.......2001-11-27

Anyone who wants an aesthetically-pleasing bunch of music will really enjoy listening to this CD. The music is beautiful to listen to, no doubt about it---amazing guitar-playing, especially the intricate work of God's Love of Man, and also beautiful harmonies throughout the songs. But anyone who really sits down and listens to the words of Danny's music will gain a deeper love of these songs and a snapshot view of the experiences and values of this talented musician.

Enjoying the Fall.......2001-11-24

I highly recommend this CD if you're a fan of folk music. The melodies are pretty and the lyrics are thought-provoking. The guitar playing is masterful (check out McCreary's Pipes) and Joia Wood's backup singing compliments Danny's voice beautifully. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to this one.

knocked me off my chair.......2001-11-23

i was lying in my friend's bed, and she stuck in this cd of danny's and it startled me, captured me, kidnapped me for the next week...i couldn't get it out of my tape deck. actually, to be fair, the original album that captivated me was his live cd, but many of the songs are similar, and the sad celtic tune 'mccleary's pipe', in 'enjoying the fall' is perhaps the most beautiful song i've ever heard
