Liner Notes
Over the past several years, the Scott Woods Band has been on the road crossing Canada from coast to coast. We love sharing old time fiddle music with some country songs, swing, gospel and of course lots of good old fashioned fun. The shows all help charities, churches and community organizations raise funds for their special cause.
It gives me great pleasure to deliver the entertainment that the audiences crave, the old time music they can't get on the radio anymore or for that matter, on the stage. There have always been lots of requests for favourite tunes and so, we started collecting them. This collection now includes over 3,000 different tunes from audiences across the country.
The main reason for collecting the requests was to build a live show for the people, with tunes chosen by the people. This live show is naturally called 'By Request'. Certainly, not all 3,000 requests could make it to the live show so I decided to take the most requested tunes that had not previously been recorded on my earlier CD's and release this special collection for you to enjoy at home.
A hearty thank you to all of you who took the time to request tunes! For those who did not get their request played on the show or on this CD, don't worry, there are plenty more recordings and live shows coming from The Scott Woods Band in the future! I will keep your requests handy and will try to incorporate them into our future shows and CDs. If you would like to make a request for a tune, please send an email to info@scottwoods.ca.
Enjoy! - Scott
