a
Big Picture is an interesting cornucopia of eclectic story lines and musical styles from singer/songwriter David Ray Skinner. The subject matter ranges from a Tennessee farmer's encounter with some boys from Venus (who are close friends with a moonshining sheriff) to WWII cargo cults (who literally worship American GI's) to a '60s-era flower child-turned suburban housewife (who has the opportunity to return to her hippie roots). And, there are some lovesongs (such as the one about a girl next door who joins a traveling carnival) and a couple of Appalachian soap operas thrown in for good measure. The music itself ranges from bluegrass and country to rock and big band. The resulting mix is a pleasant romp through a field of eccentricities and Southern sensibilities.

The cassettes sell for $8.99 (plus $2.00 for shipping and handling). Send check or money order to:
