Charlie & Celia: Home
Thanks for visiting our website!!!
This is your source of information for everything Charlie & Celia as well as The Appalachian Green Parks Project and the New Vinton County Frogwhompers.
It is nearing the end of July as I write this and our shopping link will now allow you to order the Frogwhomper Unboxed Set on line from CD Baby. It has been an extremely busy year thus far. We have participated in two separate series of reunion concerts with former members of the Appalachian Green Parks Project, a single evening performance with the original members of the Frogwhompers and seen the re-release on CD of vintage recordings of both groups.
The Green Parks CD has all 13 of the cuts released on vinyl in the Summer of 1975 plus other studio recordings that simply wouln't fit on the vinyl format. The additional inclusion of 4 cuts from the 1976 touring group makes it especially a true retrospective since the music of all the major touring groups during the life of the project are included. You can go to our music link and listen to some recordings of this group and get a flavor of what it was all about.
The Frogwhompers CD set includes the Frogwhomper Album, the A Touch Of Grass Album and a series of recordings that were made with plans to release a third album that never quite made it to publication-until now. There are even a few additional bonus tracks that came from some live performances in the studio while we were recording the soundtrack for a movie for the Ohio Department of Natural Resources that were recorded just for the fun of it. All told, this two CD set has over 50 cuts-well worth the price and an essential must-have for any true blue Frogwhomper fan.
We aren't certain what our next major project will be-perhaps we'll finally turn our attention to the next Charlie & Celia CD and finally get that one done. In the meantime, we will continue to play music at the many venues that continue to invite us to appear and make every effort to stay on top of the necessary updates to our website so that you can know where you can come and see us.
If you have any questions or suggestions, just drop us a line!
