Recipe for Alabama
On my bay back from N.C. to S.F. my traveling partner D. suggested that we take a detour to Birmingham, Alabama to visit Butch Anthony, a folk artist she had recently met. Butch was showing his art: a dinosaur made of found objects, strange paintings, a blue bottle fly. I met his amazing fortune telling chicken, Bob Ross. Drop a quarter in the jar, look the rooster in the eye and receive a fortune inside an egg. Throw in Les Blank's great filn, "Sprout Wings and Fly", a documentary about old-time fiddler Tommy Jarrell. Stir it all together and you've got some Alabama Chicken
The album Alabama Chicken was recorded on December 9th and 10th, 2002 in Suki Hill's living room in northern California. It was recorded by Paul Scriver. Joining Sean Hayes on the record are: Eno Garcia on banjo, jaw-harp and musical saw, Jolie Holland on harmonies and violin, Garth Wells on bass, Dave Mihaly on marimba and drums and Will Waghorn on drums.
The recording has ten orginial songs including Dream Machine which was re-mixed for Mark Farina's new record Air Farina. The album also features the old-time tune Little Maggie and a new version of Bob Dylan's Walkin' Down the Line.
