Whether picking old English ballads, songs from Africa, Hawaii and Mexico, the music of Lennon and McCartney, or Mississippi John Hurt’s blues, Ed Gerhard targets a tune’s emotion with unerring accuracy. Counting the Ways includes acoustic duets with Martin Simpson, Bob Brozman and Arlo Guthrie, multi-tracked adventures melding acoustic lap-steel, bass, baritone and high-strung guitars, and pensive solo performances on a custom Breedlove. With a trance-like, almost melancholy delivery, Ed slowly unfolds each melody to reveal its mysteries.
