About the Artist
"Sit! Stay!" is the second CD by the Colorado-based band BadDogs and the first CD containing all original songs penned by Dave German and Rich Currier, the two lead vocalists in the band. "Sit! Stay!" is a CD with a Colorado theme; each of the twelve songs on this CD refers to a place or event in Colorado that has influenced BadDogs. After recording the first CD "Live & Loose" as a duo, BadDogs Dave and Rich have added drummer William "Bill" Lockard and bass player Gary Pfalzbot for this production as well as guest appearances by local musicians Jody Adams on fiddle, "Ramblin'" Annie Renoir on clarinet, Jack Daniels on 5-string bass, John Michael Steele on backup vocals, Rodney Garrett on congas, and Dave Biondo on harmonica. It is our sincere hope that you will enjoy this CD as a lot of labor and love went into the making of it.

5 out of 5 stars A musical treasure-box.......2006-09-10

Both the music and this actual product are masterpieces. John Dowland's collected works here - covering 12 compact discs - exhibit the depth and power of this composer, a composer who many now regard as suffering from clinical depression. I doubt that the issue of the diagnosis of Dowland's depression can ever be settled, however, it is certainly obvious from his music, so completely on display here, that he was a man with very dark depths and corners in his mind. Dowland's various manifestations and "takes" on his own tune, "Flow my tears"/"Lachrimae" are here. This tune has haunted me ever since I first heard it when I was a child. It seems to sum up Dowland's feelings - at least Dowland seems to have thought so.

The First, Second, Third and Fourth Bookes of Songes, A Musicall Banquet, the keyboard transcriptions, all the lute music, consort music are here and virtually everything else written or supposedly written by John Dowland. Anthony Rooley and The Consort of Musicke perform this music with style and feeling throughout. This 12 CD set is something of a monument to the ensemble - I only wish they'd finished their collection of Monteverdi madrigals, which was equally good (La Venexiana are currently doing a magnificent job of recording all Monteverdi's books of madrigals for the GLOSSA label).

This is an expensive set, however, you will probably never need to buy another John Dowland CD again after buying and listening to this collection.

I bought this CD set on a mild Summer evening of 1998 and listened to it while sitting in my sun room - which a glorious orange sunset in progress, and a glass of wine. It brought back so many memories.

5 out of 5 stars a beautiful journey into melancholy.......2001-06-15

I'm amazed at how many people tend to associate John Dowland's music with a tragic sense of drama. While no doubt this is art highly based on sadness, the "tragic" sense of it is more a legacy from the Romantic period. During the Renaissance, however, sadness was undestood as a very aesthetic way of approaching life. That is also the reason why Shakespeare's tragedies appear more sophisticated than his comedies.

Dowland, a contemporary of Shakespeare, discovered that meditating on a sad theme is, at the same time, a way of discovering a special beauty that we tend to avoid (maybe because of the "tragic" heritage of the Romantics). So, in the end, meditating on sadness is an uplifting experience! This box set is a journey into melancholy that includes songs, chamber music, pieces for lute, some rare sacred music and -as a highlight- Dowland's beautiful collection of seven pieces for viola which he called "Lachrimae" (Tears).

5 out of 5 stars Excellent vocals --- Excellent songwriters.......2005-08-23

Sit! Stay! has become one of my favorite music collections. Lead vocals, Rich Currier and Gary German, seem to belong together - they blend so well that it's hard to believe that the sound isn't produced from one singer.

"Colorado Sky" is clearly the strongest track but "Tres Hombres, Dos Equis y Una Paloma" and "Phantom Canyon Road" are so strong, it's hard not to consider them as the album flagship.

These "Bad Dogs" should definitely get their own dog run!

5 out of 5 stars BadDogs got 'em a good thing going.......2004-11-14

Not since John Denver has anyone loved Colorado so much...Fans of old-school country and classic rock will find plenty of gems on this album - from galloping guitars, to story-telling lyrics, to warm vocal harmonies...A truely refreshing aspect of the band is that they pay equal attention to the sound of a song and the lyrics. The result is witty footstompers and wistful ballads, each with enough character to be memorable.

        Customer Reviews:

        5 out of 5 stars Vintage G and S and Great Sound Too.......2003-06-14

        I purchased this CD with some fear that the sound quality might reflect its vintage 1920's and 30's origin. Well, this recording might be the very best transfer of 78s that I have ever heard! I really enjoy the "early" D'Oyly Carters because I think their combination of acting and singing is unsurpassed. This is certainly so for tenor Derek Oldham, contralto Bertha Lewis, and, of course, bass-baritone Darrell Fancourt. But EVERYONE really excels in their parts and it's great to hear the likes of Nellie Briercliffe, Muriel Dickson and Winifred Lawson (et al) in clear voice, with really no surface noise at all. The performances sound new and fresh.
