Product Description
Former Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics Captain Michael Parker dodges death in a Ghostly Shade of Pale only to find that the organized crime figures who tried to kill him were amateurs compared to the political criminals he encounters in A Rented World. He confronts an unholy trinity of politics, crime and business, all singing the same secular hymn--"Everyone and everything is for sale."
![The Title Track of this CD was written well before it ever had a name. When I decided to record a totally instrumental CD, I did so at my home and my son (7 at the time) was literally sleeping in the next room as I was recording parts of this project. All songs on this project were recorded with Larrivee Guitars. I must admit that I enjoyed getting away from words for a while! These songs are all original compositions and some werewritten as early as the mid 1980's, while others were written in the new Millennium. If you are an acoustic guitar player you may enjoy the many different tunings used on this CD. I started to write down just a couple of the tunings, but instead I decided to list the tunings of each song (F.Y.I.) after the titles down below. This is the 2nd issue of this project and I have included 2 “new” bonus tracks because they fit the vain of this recording. Note that these songs are not listed on the CD song roster. Names came after conception for both of these tunes, written in Spring of 2003 ( “Acoustic Sonata in D” - tuned D-A-D-F-C-E ) and Winter 2004 ( “Tamable Hemlock” - tuned D-A-D-F#-C-E ). I hope that you might enjoy. As always, thanks to family, friends and many aquantences. Musically - Frazier Riddell
