Ferrell Stowe IMO knows how to squeeze some incredible tone out of a
dobro. I call him "The Tonemaster". I have all of his work and will
have to go back and listen to his Wayfarin Stranger again.

Who is Ferrell Stowe?
Hi List,
Tom Foote mentioned to me awhile back in a e-mail, that he was
learning Ferrell Stowe's rendition of "Wayfaring Stranger", and I
thought to myself...."Yeah I can do that!" and so I learned it. Ha!
At least I thought I did, oh sure. Anyways I'd never heard of Ferrell
Stowe, so I thought "If Tom is listening to this guy, maybe I should
order his cd".....so I searched for his website, and I listened to a
couple of sound clips, and I orderd "Stobro's Blues."
Well let me tell you .....first of all....I DID NOT "LEARN"
WAYFARING STRANGER....no way, and no how!! I didn't even come
close!!! Ferrell's version of this wonderful old folk spiritual, is
light years ahead of anything I even dreamed possible! I'm listening
to it as I type these words, and I can't begin to tell you all how
good this rendition of Ferrell's is.
As some of you know, I've had a dear friend going thru some serious
medical problems, (removal of a huge tumor) and the past several
months, ending in her succssful surgery this past week, has been
something I'm just glad is over. My point in mentioning this to you
all, is that listening to this cd, has made life a bit more bearable,
and I can't give a better recommendation.....that I can think
of.....than that!
I hear that Ferrell Stowe has moved to Nashville and has been
getting involved in providing music for movie soundtracks, and if I
understand this correctly, we can all look forward to hearing our
favorite instrument while watching the big screen.
You can find out more about Ferrell Stowe from his web-site at
www.ferrellstowe.com [1]
or email him at
Stobro44@hotmail.com [2]
and "usual disclaimers" apply. I'm just grateful to have music of
this quality to listen to, it's the best "therapy" I can think of.
