JACK HARDY

with LISA GUTKIN, GREG ANDERSON, TOM LENAHAN, DAVID CANTOR, WENDY BECKERMAN


Jack Hardy has been a central figure in folk music since his arrival in Greenwich Village in 1978. Instrumental in founding the Songwriter's Exchange, the SpeakEasy Musician's Co-op, and Fast Folk Musical Magazine, Hardy has released numerous albums domestically on his Great Divide label, extending into the 21st century with such CDs as Bandolier (2002), Coin of the Realm (2004), Tinker’s Coin: Celtic Anthology (2005), and Noir (2007). Considered a writer's writer, he is known for politics in his songs, Americanized Irish influences, and a preoccupation with mythological imagery, mixed up with standard New York folk & roll.

RECORD NEAR EX but (please, read above description)

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)

In a rare sleeve note, Jack Hardy explains that this, his ninth album, was recorded in his small Greenwich Village apartment, direct to two-track tape, thus bringing his usual D.I.Y. approach, which has found him releasing his own records for years, to the actual process of record-making. The listener will find that distinction less audible than several other alterations in Hardy's usual approach. The compressed recording time may have focused the effort, as Hardy recorded with a touring band prominently featuring violinist Lisa Gutkin and harmony singer Wendy Beckerman for a sound reminiscent of Bob Dylan's Desire. And the substitution of drummer Tom Lenahan for Howie Wyeth makes for a more streamlined rhythm; Lenahan is more driving, as opposed to Wyeth's bomb-filled gutbucket style. But the biggest difference from previous efforts is in Hardy's songwriting: The songs are shorter, and while Hardy may never be accused of directness or simplicity, lyrically he is less concerned here with arcane subjects and more with conventional issues of romance. "The same old song/On the radio/He done her wrong/And she had to go, "...(AllMusic)
