Notes: After several cassette-only releases this is Michael Hakanson-Stacy's first CD release. An all-acoustic recording, this album is divided between blues and folk, both of which Hakanson-Stacy seems to have a pretty solid handle on. A gifted picker, he excels on slide and resonator guitars and also receives guitar backing from singer/songwriter Brooks Williams on several selections. The more folksy numbers like "Down to My Soul" and "It Hurts Us So" resemble Sings like Hell-and Torn Again-period Peter Case; while the bluesier pieces invoke comparisons to Mississippi John Hurt and Leadbelly. Hakanson-Stacy wrote most of the songs on this album, and based on his style and delivery, it's evident that he's a student of not only traditional American guitar playing but the traditional songwriting nuances as well. This is an excellent release that would pave the way for several more such albums by Hakanson-Stacy in the coming years.
