The Saint Is Heard, Hörbuch, Digital, 579min
The Saint - sprung from the pen of Leslie Charteris, his adventures fill 30 books, a dozen motion pictures - and now, by radio, he is yours for the next half hour. Simon Templar, played here by Vincent Price (with Barry Sullivan substituting in two episodes), was wealthy and refined. He was well dressed, well traveled, and well educated. He was also The Saint, the "Robin Hood of modern crime", who was not afraid to break the law if that's what had to be done to ensure that justice was served. Larry Dobkin co-stars as Louie the Cabbie in these digitally restored and remastered tales that find Templar sailing, skiing, and delving in to the disparate worlds of mining, baseball, prizefighting, mystery writing, and more. The Saint sets all manner of matters straight, all the while maintaining excellent form.

Dish Dogs
The Dish Dogs' New Album Cleans Up The first time I heard, "Wish I was a Bird" (Track 7) as it was being previewed as an early release to the Dish Dogs eponymously titled album, I thought it was a great version of a cover. However, this is original Dish Dog material and the perfect illustration of classic Dish Dogs music - original, familiar and entertaining. The arrangement is brilliant and the blending of dark and light voices allows the song to soar. The confidence of delivery of the song allows the delivery to be sharp, direct and fun. And so it goes with every track on the album. Chris Howdyshell's latest incarnation, The Dish Dogs, have produced a genre bending sound marrying folk, rock, blues and country. Is this what we call Honky-Tonk? By going into the studio the greatest question The Dish Dogs had to answer was 'could their high-energy, audience-participation, ensemble LIVE production' translate to a studio album where the spotlight shifts to the lyrics, rhythms and harmonies, while showcasing the extreme talent that drives the existence of the Dish Dogs?' The musicianship across the board is incredible - loud, driving, precise and innovative. The Dish Dogs are a mix of older statesmen - Doug Pitts (electric guitar and guitjo), younger guns - Josh Vana (electric guitar, harmonica, vocals), Kyle Oehmke (bass), and Michael Bowman (drums, mandolin, vocals), and the middle guard of Lara Mack (vocals) and Chris Howdyshell (acoustic guitar, vocals) - fronting the band. The sound is familiar in a warm, cozy, 'I know these guys way.' Playful music gives way to serious technical guitar rift, soaring harmonica and vocal blends. Michael Bowman's crisp voice acts as a clear counterpoint to Howdyshell's seasoned croon. Mack lends a lightness and whimsical dance to the harmonies with her vast range. All of these proceedings are anchored to the Rock 'n' Roll traditions by the relentless bass guitar of Kyle Oehmke. Oehmke is technically gifted without predictability. He is a steady hand, when the melodies leave the playing field, acting as an eventual landing strip for the bluesy beats and soulful dirges. The main criticism is the arrangement of the album. The album seems to start at the point 'Dry Here for Weeks' and 'It's Not Your Fault,' which coincidentally are the newest offerings for this album. 'Leaf Pile' and 'She's An Artist' are fine songs, but do not catapult the album or showcase the talents of the ensemble. The newest tracks, possibly by virtue of being new, sound fresh and demonstrate the best of Howdyshell's talents as a lyricist. No doubt this is grown up music raised on a couple of generations of the masters - Bob Dylan, The Greatful Dead, Allman Brothers Band and Tom Waits. The album's artwork (courtesy of Bryan Vana) hints at something sad about the music. A broken down one time old reliable station wagon lays wasting in a field with the Appalachians looming beautifully in the distance. Is this our fate? The album is cathartic and revels in Pitts' guitar guile and pure feast of energy incited by Howdyshell's maniacal vocals. But this experience is not a purely happy one. If the album is life in miniature, then according to the Dish Dogs - the best it will get is 'sitting in a big Leaf Pile', because in order to get over your problems, you've got to shut yourself away as evidenced in 'Dry Here For Weeks' - a sad song about alcoholism where it seems like the best days are over. Some solace is provided by knowing 'It's Not Your Fault', but the truth is, it is your fault and relationships are an ebb and flow of chance and confidence and self-change. 'Whiskey Momma', (a great addition to the album and a tip of the cap to local musician Rob St. Ours) is a cynical song about an absence of faith and celebrating life in the present moment. Tom Weights, obvious in it's acknowledgment, is out of place and is the weakest song on the album compared to it's similarly themed 'Then You'll Know' and 'I Got A Little More', which are ironic and twisting, simultaneously captivating and heart-wrenching musings on life bringing us once again to that scrapped car in that anonymous yard in the Shenandoah Valley (see Album Cover). The Dish Dogs are a Live band to be experienced in person and this album delivers as near to the front row as you could be. -Ken Gibson From the ashes of the band Red River Roller Coaster, a new breed of rock 'n' roller has emerged. One could describe them in a language common only to poor, laboring restaurateurs. You know the guy in the back that nobody talks to, that might only get tipped out a couple bucks, but has made sure your silverware is spotless? I'm talking about the dish dog. Singing the blues quietly to himself... no more. Patiently hoping some big shot record company guy will be in the dining room and suddenly hear the faint sounds of love and pain resonating off the plates and cups....no more. These five guys and a gal are out and about sharing their stories of pain, suffering, love and brief moments of bliss, that create our existence. True songs of real-life situations, that's what you'll hear on this CD. Songs about what is happening to all of us. 'The band's songs are musically diverse, with the musicians dabbling in electric guitar, banjar, harmonica, tambourine, drums, mandolin, acoustic guitar and the glue that ties it all together: the vocals.' -Rocktown Weekly The Dish Dogs are a pretty eclectic bunch. Lead singer, acoustic guitarist, writer, and composer Chris Howdyshell, leads the band with a heavy dose of fibber jabber. With Doug Pitts and Joshua Vana taking turns on Lead Guitar, you truly get a guitar-heavy album. Michael Bowman, a classically-trained guitarist, sits down on drums this time, adding mandolin on a couple tracks as well. (Little fingers)Kyle Oehmke plays electric bass and Lara Mack provides the gorgeous harmony. The Dish Dogs are known for their great live performances, so check out the CD and then find 'em in the hills and valleys of Virginia for a show.- Shop: odax

Kevin Misevis Live
Spontaneously Channeled and Performed by Classical Pianist and Chi Gung Composer Kevin Misevis Kevin Misevis Live Creates a Musical Environment for Self Healing, Spiritual Consciousness, Mental Peace, Spiritual Quiet and Well-Being. It is the Mystical Antidote to Stress In spontaneously creative spiritual musical moments, Misevis simultaneously channels and performs, "Music in the Qi of life" unlocking the doors to the Universal Life Force. His music transcends traditional form and captures essences of freedom, peace, tranquility and healing. Unfolding his infinite bloom of love, he charges his music with healing intent while riding the waves of the free flowing matrix of Universal Chi Energy. His music is the manifestation of his lifelong journey of love, spiritual and metaphysical consciousness, healing and evolution. It is a mystical treasure of spontaneously channeled and performed classical music from the tantra of the universe. He began spontaneously composing and recording healing music in 1999 at his forest sanctuary at Castle Mountain. Soul Traveler Prelude, released in January of 2006, brought this music to the world for the first time in a CD and DVD that demonstrated the mystical process of spontaneous composition. Soul Traveler Prelude, 2007 and Kevin Misevis Live previewed his upcoming Soul Traveler 2012, a new multi-media twelve-CD, three DVD and book set that is a masterpiece of exceptional channeled classical music imbued with amped-up healing intent and Chi-driven fluidity. His book is a common sense and pragmatic tome about music and self-healing, health and spiritual consciousness that is likely to transform your point of view about healing and life in general. It doesn't matter if you are Jewish, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Buddhist, atheist or believe in a higher power, you will fully enjoy the benefits of the meditative healing music channeled by Misevis and charged with healing intent. It is a powerful invocation to heal and cultivate spiritual growth and well-being. It is a portal into the soul's inner journey toward self-realization and enlightenment for all musical paths in your journey with Misevis lead to oneness within. Misevis takes you on a voyage of discovery that will not only intoxicate, nurture and enrapture you, but promote personal growth, openness, intuition, connection and oneness while intensifying your emotions and perceptual powers. Misevis was inspired to create healing music by his journeys to exotic places, where he photographed the sights, listened to the sounds, and experienced a range of healing treatments. But his journey is also mythological, archetypal, and personal. Delving into ancient lands and lost kingdoms takes the listener and viewer back in time while examining solar systems, galaxies, and constellations moves us forward. For Misevis, the vehicle for the journey, both internally and externally, is the instrument he has played since age four, the piano. He chooses not to incorporate the exotic sounds he has heard in his world travels, but rather let his internal sounds flow through his acoustic grand piano. His world and music has been colored by his journeys and he references lost kingdoms, ancient gods, and far-off planets as part of his "soul traveling." The listener is encouraged to take the journey, wherever it goes. For some it may be a soul-searching path, a divine act of surrender, or merely a relaxing moment. For others nostalgia, memories, or their own travels may come to mind. The music is about letting go. A journey is not just about a destination, rather it is the process of moving. And the best journeys happen when we let go. Enjoy the ride. - Iris Brooks The texturizing sound of the 7' 4" August Forster concert grand piano coupled with the healing intent in the performance of Misevis and Master Wan Su Jian and four Chi Gung doctors can stimulate a deep mysticomimetic experience that can resonate a clearing of the vibrational baggage of blocked and repressed energy centers from childhood, past lifehoods and traumas. This in turn opens emotional blockages to clear and start the energy juice flowing again. Misevis stimulates a reconnection of spiritual consciousness that uplinks us to our most subtle energies and the healing Chi of the universe. The wellspring of Misevis' music flows with the feng shui of his surroundings. The lakes, artesian springs, mountains and waterfalls charge the reflective, seductive, gentle flowing and meditatively magnetic spiritual healing flavor of his music with Earth, wind and water energies. Loving music for music lovers that begins a journey into love, spirit, space and time, tantalizing the emotions and senses. People who experience Misevis' music report a wide range of positive experiences not only when practicing conscious breathing, Tai Chi, yoga, aerobics, Chi Gong and stretching but also from walking in nature, getting a massage or other therapeutic treatment, sitting on a mountain, lake or beach, meditating and traveling. Many comment that they feel more restored, more calm and have enhanced intuition and creativity but the most common comment is that his music is so soothing and relaxing. This is one of the most important reasons to listen to his music, because when the body is relaxed, the immune system can better do it's job of healing. New Classical Music Kevin Misevis Livecomes from free flowing chi that is not so much listened to as experienced and works it's magic extremely well during moments we allow ourselves to connect with our inner being. Each piece is created spontaneously with love and recorded organically with amped-up healing intention that resonates with the holographically chi that created it. The DVDs included with Soul Traveler Prelude, 3007 and Kevin Misevis Live show Master Wan Su Jian and four Chi Gung doctors moving and directing Chi to Misevis and his piano as he spontaneously trance composes the entire concert. The raw sensual emotion and the sweet evocative melodic subtlety are spiritual and emotional nourishment that creates a contemplative state of mind, enhances peacefulness and connects with the deepest level the soul. Each piece is a kaleidoscope of different musical energies for transformational healing and revitalization. The Chinese believe that the Universe is swimming in Chi, and that every living thing taps into this universal energy. Listening to Kevin MIsevis Live tunes-up your spirit to re-connect to the chi of the universe. Everything from studying, working on business, creative or logical projects and writing reports or poetry, to racing cars or making love is enhanced as your mind, body and spirit tap into states of focused awareness that stimulates creativity, cognition and provides an 'in the moment' alternative musical pathway to linear thinking. Kevin Misevis Live and his Soul Traveler collection are essential companions for anyone involved in holistic, proactive, and responsibly managed health programs. From the simplest use of conscious deep breathing to a full day at a healing Spa where a day includes a variety of massages, aromatherapy, hydro or thalassic therapy, hot stone therapy, exotic spices, shaman healing, Reiki, yoga, fencing, tai chi, and the complementary foods to activate your treatments and detox your body, Misevis' music enhance the message and makes you feel better. 'I sometimes feel like an ancient musical geomancer, uplinked with archetypal intuition, as I channel music and videos from Earth and cosmic energies and reintroduce shamanism to the Western music world. Shamanism was the most practiced method of healing on this planet until modern times. When I am in a compositional trance, I do not experience the usual awareness of sensation. It is more an intense, omnipresent and definitely energetic feeling. It feels like I am taken over by another-dimensional awareness that manifests a different reality. I do not claim to own this field nor do I claim to be a healer or ma- Shop: odax

Alison Cowles, the daughter longtime video animation collaborator David Cowles (The Mesopotamians, what's his other biggest one?) has contributed all the illustrations for the album.
