Carolyne Mas: Home

I am very pleased to offer the entire show from Bremen, Germany, for download. It is uncut...exactly as it was that evening, all of the talking in between songs included. That evening's show was not one of the bigger audiences I performed to during the tour, it was a small venue, but it was a very intimate show as there were a lot of people from my past in attendance.

The sound-man was kind enough to download this show for me onto his computer, and I received it a short while ago. It is $10 for the download, and may be purchased by clicking on the PayPal link below. You will automatically be led to the download link. Works best with Firefox, but if you experience any problems, please email me at samlorac@aol.com and I will send you the link directly.

Enjoy!

Some have requested that I make a donation link visible, so here ya go! Donations are always welcome, and go towards keeping the music flowing. I thank you...

"This 2003 release contains nine previously released tracks and nine from the vaults. It's distributed by the Carolyne Mas Fan Club (www.carolynemas.com). The old stuff is memorable, and so is the new. The last track is a home recording by Carolyne's father, to whom the album is dedicated." ~ Charles G. Hill, www.dustbury.com

"Originally issued on the Stillsane (!) label, this 1989 European release exemplifies the standard Mas virtues: direct, no-BS songwriting and solid musicianship. Recorded in Springfield, Missouri, Action Pact features Carolyne in front of the fabled Midwestern bar band known as the Morells (when they weren't known as the Skeletons). "So Hard to Be True" was also included in the set for Carolyne Mas Live! An unexpected delight is the vocal on "Sleepwalk" (yes, the old Santo and Johnny song), which Carolyne once spun for me over the phone. "Cruel Little Angel" is pure classic Nashville. And "Dizzy from the I-IV-V" — well, you must hear that for yourself." ~ Charles G. Hill, www.dustbury.com
