12 Original Songs Live From Norm's River Road House
From the liner notes: "The road from my cabin west of Nashville to Norm's River Road house is barley a blue highway. On a dark fall night there are no other businesses to judge the distance by. An old church flashes by and River Road meanders with steeped blind curves that make a designated driver a necessity. Just when you think you're lost and ready to turn back, a low brick building with gravel parking lot and a vapor light appears on the right. Dusty pickup trucks and a wooden sign welcome you to a long room with a few tables and a counter facing a flat top grill. Homemade barbeque, quesadillas, and the coldest beer in town. A few locals watch a flickering TV set. There is no stage or rows of chairs. The cook points to a narrow stairway heading into a basement with stone walls and low ceilings. A glass beer cooler, and Norm himself serene and smiling behind the bar as the tiny room soon fills to capacity. Norm is a bluegrass musician and the sound was one of the reasons performers like myself jumped at the opportunity to play there. I shared the the stage with Bryn Davis, Pat Flynn from New Grass Revival. Tommy Womack, David Olney, Marshall Chapman.... ... I wish I could invite you all to come spend an evening there with me, but sadly Norm's was washed away in the May floods that had twelve feet of water racing through the upstairs." Track list: 1.
