James Lee Stanley at Shank Hall
Singer-songwriter James Lee Stanley is best known for his work with ex-Monkee Peter Tork and his collaboration with veteran folkie John Batdorf on an album of acoustic Rolling Stones covers, but he leans back toward his meditative side on 2007’s The Eternal Contradiction. Songs like “The Street Where Mercy Died” and “This Fleeting Moment” are as ruminative as one would imagine, and Stanley’s voice keeps the emphasis on the melody, spanning silky baritone and gentle falsetto. In 2008 Stanley decided to look back, reworking his 2002 album Traces Of The Old Road and released it as New Traces Of The Old Road.
