Product Description Eliza Gilkyson, John Gorka and Lucy Kaplansky come together as Red Horse on this brand-new collaborative project from three of the most revered songwriters in folk music. Inspiring and paving the road for countless musicians and songwriters on the road today, having these three talents converge on one record is a folk fan's dream album. Red Horse's sparse instrumentation allows these three distinctive voices to carry the magic of the music that is awash in great harmonies and songwriting. Each of these legendary singer/songwriters solos on classics first made famous by the other two members. Lucy gives a haunting performance of Eliza's "Sanctuary," John takes the lead on Lucy's "Don't Mind Me" while Eliza performs John's "Forget to Breathe" which has never been released on Red House before. Red Horse showcases new material from all three, covers they have never before recorded as well as revisiting and rearranging a couple of early classics. Red Horse is the result of three veteran songwriters and good friends coming together to make music. With Red Horse Eliza Gilkyson, John Gorka, and Lucy Kaplansky give us a collection of songs that solidifies their place as three of folk music's great songwriters. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsRed Horse is the best! Carol Sarshik | Acton, MA USA | 07/16/2010 (5 out of 5 stars) "The Red Horse CD was just released, and thanks to Amazon's speedy delivery, arrived quickly. I have not been able to stop listening to it. Hearing John Gorka, Lucy Kaplansky, and Eliza Gilkyson sing together is wonderful. There are 12 songs on this CD - three written by John, three by Lucy, three by Eliza, and three covers. They take turns singing lead on each other's songs, as well as their own, and breathe new life into many of these songs. They do an amazing job on Neil Young's "I Am a Child. Hearing Lucy on her song "Scorpion", with the two singing backup, just adds more zest to a powerful song. Hearing Eliza sing lead on Lucy's "Promise Me" just makes me play it over & over again. It's soulful and romantic, and reminds me to listen to my "Ten Year Night" CD again. I'd never heard the song "Coshieville" before, and John's voice and presentation just captivated me, and makes me want to discover more songs by Stuart McGregor. All twelve songs are beautifully presented and sung, and ending with a beautiful version of "Wayfaring Stranger" is like enjoying a delicious dessert after a great meal. I hope the three of you will tour in the Boston area because the collaboration is outstanding on CD, and will only sound better live! Thanks for this great recording."
