This is my second album *"More!!!"*. People asked for more after my first
album came out and I'm pleased to say that *"More!!!"* is available. This
album was a little tougher to release than the first one since I had to
build my own studio to do it. The album was released on the BlackBird
Recording label on November 12, 1999. The songs and poems on it include:
(click the titles for lyrics, chords and sound clips.)
William's Wedding Song The Barbarian Freehold Alliance
I Loved Thee Ere Price of Steel
A Period Song The Wish
The Crescent of Caid A Place in the Sky
Red Belt, Silver Spurs The Archer King
1066 - The Storybook Version So You Wish to Be a Bard...
*Would you like to own this tape, and the songbook, too??
Here's the order form.*
"The Price of Steel" was written by Lord William Hawkes and all others are
originals by Rathflaed. ("1066 - The Storybook Version" is the story of the
battle of Hastings from a slightly new perspective. It starts:
O see Duke William. He is from Normandy. Normandy is in France where they
have wine and cheese and surrender all the time. But Duke William was alive
a long, long time ago before the French started surrendering to everyone.
and gets worse from there.) All of the songs and poems are stories and have
been praised across the Knowne Worlde. If you like long, slow
"slit-your-wrist" ballads, then check out my first album. If you liked that
one - well, this is more of the same. If you like SCA music in general or
wish that the world had just a little more chivalry, then you will be
touched by the songs and stories contained herein.
