About this item

Product Description DAKOTA NIGHTS takes the listener on a musical journey across America, with original pieces ranging from beautiful acoustic to rollicking road music. Reviewed by the New Times as ...calico silk, jazzy and stylish..this second album by Peter Elman features noted instrumentalists Norton Buffalo, Richard Greene and Mike Marshall. Review I have to admire Peter Elman's savvy. There are a lot of people (myself included) who really enjoy country music enough to make Country the most listened to genre on the airwaves but we also enjoy the quieter, mellow sounds of New Adult Contemporary. Here, Elman has successfully combined these two forms. DAKOTA NIGHTS' softly upbeat cuts have just enough elements of country to make them interesting and stylistic, but not enough to make you think you got an album from the wrong section of the music store. With synthesizer used sparingly and a wealth of instruments such as piano, acoustic guitar, violin, mandolin, hammered dulcimer, harmonica and pedalsteel guitar (to name a few) the album has a full, live band feel rather than the stiff, highly technological sound common to a lot of NAC music. It feels more grounded and earthy. If DAKOTA NIGHTS could be described in terms of fabric, I'd call it calico silk; This wonderful instrumental release evokes imagery of a country dance 100 years ago when times were simpler, with sweeping expanses of wheat-gold as far as the eye can see, wind-tanned faces and places of the heartland. Yet with its country feel, this album is jazzy, stylish and smooth. --Rhonda Dicksion, New Times
