Review:

In 1996, David Munyon recorded his first release “Slim Possibilities” on the Stockfisch Records label, in a joint venture with Glitterhouse Records. This semi-acoustic CD with 12 tracks on it was recorded during a studio session in the autumn of 1995. In two evenings David played for about 60 songs. Only one song he played twice, all of the other songs where recorded at ones. Günter Pauler created a breathtaking backing sound. Pauler had a little help of musician like, Chris Jones: Guitars, Harmony vocal, Hans-Jorg Maucksch: Electric Bass, Frank Fiedler: Acoustic bass, Beo Brockhausen: Hurdy-Gurdy, Jew's-harp, John Hickman: Banjo, Byron Berline: Fiddle, Steve Baker: Harp and Hrolfur Vagnsson: Accordion. Already on the first track, Mississippi Rain, you will hear the sound of the typical Munyon fret-less bass guitar and an acoustic guitar solo of the master himself. The power on this album you will find in in the title track. “Somewhat delayed Deja-Vu”, is even catching as touching, and it has been closed up inside of me.
