"Still Now". It's kind of a concept that consists of an electric band part with
The O'Neils (Stilll Now-The Garage) and an acoustic part (Still Now-The Living), both parts feature Kersten de Ligny on harmony vocals.

A new cd called "Cloud Of Unknowing" is available now, orders can be taken here. There are 11 new songs on there dealing with the many facets of love, confusion and learning, which is what my life has been about in the past 2 years. It was recorded with the Crossroads Combo; Kersten de Ligny (vocals), Arwen Linnemann (upright bass), Roel Overduin (drums)) at our favorite crossroads at De Amer in Amen. We captured a good blend of acoustic and electric songs with plenty of improvisation. The tracklist reads as follows: To Say I Love You, No Man's Land, Whose Blues?, Home To Me, Love's Why You're Alive, Going To The Well, Stationary Ways, Every Day People, Cloud Of Unknowing, Wild Horses, Fate's Final Word.
There's also footage and some clips shot
at the scene and with what's in store a DVD will be unavoidable in the
near future ....
Here's a nice US prerelease review for Cloud of Unknowing from Village Records;
| Artist(s): AD VANDERVEEN Title: CLOUD OF UNKNOWING |

| You wouldn’t think that one of the best singer songwriters in the new folk and roots genre would hail from the great state of the Netherlands, but he does. This is easily his best album yet. Thoughtful, gentle, but edgy songs that linger long after the disc is over. The songs reflect his thoughts on turning fifty and where he is in the big scheme of things. I’m the same age, but the best I can come up with is that I need some rest. This is the perfect disc for the fall season. | |
US cd release spring 07 and touring there in May.
European cd release date on Blue Rose Records January 07 and touring Germany in March/April.

Recently I received a copy of a newly released live cd by David Olney called "Illegal Cargo". Great performances, great songs and playing on there, and a great surprise .... I'm also on it! They used a version of "Lean And Hungry Years" that David and I did as a kind of duet in 95/96.
d o w n l o a d s :
On a late night radioshow I did a version of Warren Zevon's "Mohammed's Radio" as a dedication to him and I also started including it in my live set (again). The song sure gets new significance in these times.
The song is downloadable here in mp3-format (1.58MB), courtesy of Paul van Gelder / VARA radio. Dobro was played by Timon van Heerdt (a/k/a good ol' Tim O'Neil !) and the recording was engineered by John Evers.
While recording some of Astrid Young's harmony vocals for "The Moment That Matters", we cut a version of "Powderfinger" that's downloadable here either in RealAudio-format or in mp3-format (please click on either of said formats).
Originally planned as a X-mas websession of Blue Rose artists, a version of "The Weight" is now downloadable here. Produced and played by Andy Horn, with verses sung by Elliott Murphy, Todd Thibaud, Joseph Parsons & AV.
A live version of "Water Under The Bridge" (RealMedia movie) with the O'Neils can be found by clicking here. The footage is from a German tour, early 2005.
