Just arrived - 20 Copies of Harvey Reid's Xmas CD

Harvey Reid’s XMAS CD is now available in our store - $12.99.

If you were here during the Winter Holiday Stroll last week when we had more than 2000 people come into the shop, you heard this great musician. He’s kind of local - York, Maine.
We’re hoping that Harvey will play a night or so during the winter months here at Silverlight. Maybe he’ll write a song about Nashua. I used to know him when I had my shop in Portsmouth - The Bow Street Candle & Mug/Southwest Passage - back in the 1990s. Harvey would come in once a week or so for his coffee and we’d sometimes “shoot the breeze.” Is that expression still in circulation? Haven’t heard it in some time. (We sold hundreds, if not thousands, of his CDs over 10 years).

Anyway, Harvey is a musician living in York, Maine. He won the 1981 National Fingerpicking Guitar Competition and the 1982 International Autoharp competition. In 1996, Acoustic Guitar magazine listed Harvey’s album Steel Drivin’ Man as one of the top ten essential folk albums/CDs of all time. He has 19 records available from Woodpecker Records.
Often referred to as a troubadour or minstrel singer as well as a folk singer, Harvey is considered a master of many musical instruments including the six and twelve string acoustic guitar, slide guitar (dobro), six string banjo, and autoharp.
Harvey is married to Joyce Andersen, an accomplished fiddler who has appeared on several of Harvey’s albums/CDs.
