Short Stories

(fossil 592)

THIS CD IS STILL AVAILABLE IN LIMITED SUPPLY
[How to order this CD]

HOWEVER, NEARLY ALL OF THE CUTS ON THIS CD 
ARE NOW REISSUED ON A NEW COMPILATION CD:
THE JOEL MABUS OMNIBUS 

These are songs that tell a story, mostly. (It is not spoken
storytelling.) With Joe Konkoly on bass, from 1992.

"...indescribably tasteful guitar and insightful
singer-songwriter material" -- Art Menius in Bluegrass Unlimited

"The best crop [of songs] Mabus has produced to date"
-- Dirty Linen

THE SONGS:
First Times
If Wishes Were Horses
