"Of Things To Come..." (Cat# CD001) is Rick Davis's debut CD.
A recording of bare-bones hammered dulcimer music, most of
this CD is just what you'd hear Rick playing at the Farmer's Market on a Saturday, for instance.
It's not full of fancy or clever production techniques (not that Rick dislikes those), but it is full of good ole tunes played on the
hammered dulcimer. The selection of tunes represents different
types of music Rick currently plays:
Traditional music from America (Old-Time), Ireland, Scotland and Brittany, and a couple of his own original tunes thrown into the
mix. Some tracks include one or two other parts on dulcimer
to give just a hint of arrangements to come on later CDs involving other instruments. But for now, it's bare-bones
dulcimer – a taste "Of Things To Come..."
