We keep running out of CDs at our shows, so now we're selling them on eBay!

This is the 16-song CD from Marshall Jones and the Frontier Phrenologists, a string band that looks to the great music of America’s past while creating new sounds for the present day.

When people hear Marshall Jones and the Frontier Phrenologists for the first time, they often say that they don't like "country music," but they like this. You'll hear shades of Dock Boggs, the original Carter Family, the Kinks and Gillian Welch in these songs.

The music, some written by Jones, some from the public domain, features vocal harmonies, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, upright bass and acoustic guitar.

Samples can be heard at the band’s MySpace Page.

Songs:

1. Phrenology Rag (original tune with fiddle and mandolin) 2. Raise a Ruckus (original, with lyrics you may know from The Old Crow Medicine Show or the film "How the West Was Won") 3.

Jerry, Django and Billy Joe (original, written for Jerry Garcia, Billy Joe Shaver and Django Reinhardt) 6. Turtle Dove (an old Appalachian gospel tune) 7.

Salty Dog (a mashup of the old bluegrass standard and The Kinks' "Lola") 11. Out on the Avenue (original) 12. Come September (original, reminiscent of Uncle Dave Macon) 13. The Ballad of Bonnie Parker (original, with additional lyrics by Bonnie Parker of "Bonnie and Clyde" fame) 14. Ezekiel Saw the Wheel (the old gospel tune, via Woody Guthrie) 15.
