| When The Counting Crows burst onto the music scene in the early nineties, the clear, rich tones of their melodies underscored by catchy beats brought out the honesty and heartfelt yearning of Adam Duritz’ lyrics. Soulful and jazzy beats laid on funky guitar tunes, like Mr. Jones, made a cheerful contrast to the despondency of the grunge years. Songs such as “Round Here” and ‘Rain King” spoke of emotion and feeling that made it okay to be happy and sing if you wanted to.
We at CMH records offer our selection of Pickin’ on The Counting Crows, combining the funk of the Crows with the classics of the banjo, violin and mandolin. Dobro and bass take aim at the tunes and violin and mandolin pick at the melodies giving it an edgy feel. So grab Pickin’ on The Counting Crows and plan on hanging around for an experience that will last long past December.
