WALKIN AFTER MIDNIGHT (180G BLACK VINYL)

Eva Cassidy's Walkin' After Midnight collection is
literally a ticket back to Eva's accidental Western
Swing Night. A small gig at the King of France
Tavern, downtown Annapolis. The 2nd of
November, 1995, two months prior to her now
famous Live At Blues Alley recordings. When two
of Eva' s usual four band mates were unavailable,
she improvised via an impromptu invite to
musician friend Bruno Nasta.
Proving the old adage, less can be more, the
resulting violin/ lead guitar/bass combo, together
with Eva's acoustic guitar, created a serendipitous
alternate context for some of Eva's most popular
repertoire. Dancing in the space opened up by the
absence of additional instruments, Eva's vocals
are as joyous and free as any previously heard.
Although 11 of the 12 songs (all but Down Home
Blues) appear on existing Eva albums, all 12 tracks
are previously unreleased Eva Cassidy recordings.
