Renew... rebirth... revive: A well means more in analogy than it does as a bearer of water. It can symbolize a complete transformation or a brief transition - the rejuvenation of a spirit in passing.
Cisco Music is proud to present: Jennifer Warnes The Well. The artist who brought us Famous Blue Raincoat (The Songs of Leonard Cohen) brings us her first studio album in almost 10 years, a trip to beautiful Jacob's Well outside of Austin, Texas with friend Doyle Bramhall proved an inspiration too rich to ignore. From this almost chance encounter comes The Well, a lovely collection of deeply-felt songs about renewing, rebirthing and reviving.
Songs on The Well feature stories about life-defining passages "Prairie Melancholy," rebirth "The Well," conquering fear "The Panther," Thankfulness "The Nightingale," a relationship at the cross-roads "And So It Goes," appreciation "Patriot's Dream" and discoveries "You Don't Know Me." Jennifer Warnes has chosen pieces that hint their deeper meanings. There are no soap-boxes with which to preach The Well.
Produced by Jennifer Warnes and composer/producer Martin Davich (ER), this largely acoustic album freely explores folk, pop, roots, blues and jazz. The singer has collected stellar musical talent to flesh out her vision, including; Arlo Guthrie, Doyle Bramhall (along with his son Doyle II), Rick Cunha, Vinnie Colaiuta, Dean Parks, Blondie Chaplin, George Doering, Leland Sklar, Abraham Laboriel, Lenny Castro, Van Dyke Parks and many others. On the technical side, the brilliant sound of The Well was crafted by Mark Johnson, Frank Wolf, George Massenburg, Elliot Scheiner, John Cevetello, Paul Deiter and Mark Cross.
Cisco Music's 180 gram virgin vinyl pressing and SACD/Hybrid disc remain characteristically true to the original intentions of the artist. We were aided by Ms. Warnes' innate sense of detail and polish throughout the production, assuring that you hear exactly what is intended. Both LP & SACD were mastered by Bernie Grundman from the original sources. Compared to the outstanding conventional CD (available in the USA from Sindrome/Music Force and internationally from Cisco Music) this audiophile issue is more open, spacious and dynamic. Small details come alive and Jennifer's delicate readings are wonderfully present and intimate. Well worth the wait...
