Get acquainted with my music by getting a free Dream Zoo CD while I still have copies. Order now and I'll send it out right away.
Dream Zoo was recorded at Fantasy Studios (Creedence Clearwater Revival's old studio). It's a full-length collection of 11 songs.
Above is a video of the first song on Dream Zoo, Refugee.
It includes footage from the recording at Fantasy Studios. Notice that guitar, vocal, and harmonica are being recorded all together, live. Dream Zoo was done entirely this way, with no overdubs, other musicians, or added tracks of any sort.
It's live in the studio.
"Paul Sprawl is a fine songwriter and very original guitarist whose music reflects his colorful experiences as a constantly traveling musician. He certainly deserves wider notoriety. The effort to seek out his work will be richly rewarded."
(Producer Lee Townsend - Bill Frisell, John Scofield, Loudon Wainwright III)
"I really enjoyed working with Paul. I think he is a unique talent and I really dug his material. I thought we sounded really good together, and he can sure play guitar!"
(Howard Levy- musician Bela Fleck)
"Okay. The album is called Blue Suitcase, and it's on a German label. It came out in '99 and it's wonderful. In terms of the playing, you can really get inside what he's doing, in terms of studying the moves. There's stuff that he does that nobody else does."
(Artist David Wilcox)
"He is known for his guitar virtuosity - finger picking, percussion on his guitar and playing slide at full speed but it's his tunes that live with multiple rhythms that stop, drive, and bump but still pull you along. There is just enough structure to the songs to hold onto to without being bored and just enough flash to make your soul jump to keep up with the songs."
(Ryan Dettra - Cafe' Eleven, St. Augustine, FL)
"The most amazing guitar player I have seen in 8 years" - St. Augustine musician
(Artist Sam Pacetti)
These are available as part of the free CD offer, for a bit of extra money.
Blue Suitcase was recorded in San Francisco in 1999. It was paid for by a German record company and produced by Lee Townsend. It remains the most expensive production of my songs, followed by Dream Zoo, which also involved producer Lee Townsend.
