Mossy Davidson - northwind calling
Posted on February 6, 2006 by jeremy
Here's a double lp by Mairiis "Mossy" Davidson on the small label "north woods". This was recorded in Anchorage, Alaska and Seattle, Washington. This is a nice rural femme folk lp with a really mellow vibe to it. Mossy's delicate vocals and acoustic playing are accompanied by recorders, the homestead flute, piano and steel guitar. From the liner notes: "For me Mossy is incomparable. She is herself, unique- like the songs on this album, which have a special way of touching people. These songs are true Alaskan folk music, a very personal expression of the joys and dreams, beauty and solitude of living on the last frontier- songs of love for the North Country, of pioneers and fishermen, wild places and changing times.

I have found this page late Jan 2007 through the Hype Machine, and downloaded this one song. Both my husband and I love it very very much, and we really would love to get the whole album. But in 18 months we did not find anything! And I am really crawling blogspots all day, everyday (not kidding). Still not found.
I googled it today again, and still, this seems to be the only mp3 being ever been posted.
Who has the complete album? Who would sell/share/trade a copy?
We would really be interested!

Hello again, I am happy to anounce that I have now found the complete album, even on CD!
I got it from the artist herself, who has some copies left of the 1997 CD (remastered of the 1977 DOLP). It is really fantastic!
I would like to thank you, because without this blog (and the introduction via Fox Sparrow) I would not even know anything about her.
Anyone who likes Judy Collins, Joan Baez, Melanie Safka or Cheryl Dilcher, will love this album too. I am sure!
