Trailer Records is proud to release the recording that Greg Brown's fans have been waiting for; a cd of traditional folk tunes filtered through Brown's distinct musical perspective. "Honey In The Lion's Head" also features guest appearances by long-time producer Bo Ramsey, new wife Iris Dement, daughter and Trailer Records artist Pieta Brown, and many of the Iowa City bluegrass players who have appeared on Greg's releases over the years. Featuring such classic songs as: "Samson and Delilah," "On Top Of Old Smokey," and "Jacob's Ladder," "Honey In The Lion's Head" is two-time Grammy-nominee Brown's second release for hometown indie label Trailer Records.

Folk singer Christine Collister (best known for her 1980s work with Clive Gregson) and Dave Kelly of the U.K. blues revivalists the Blues Band began a new duo career with this live album, recorded with Kelly's Blues Band compatriot Gary Fletcher and former Dire Straits drummer Pick Withers as the Travelling Gentlemen. Split between Collister and Kelly originals and well-chosen covers like Sandy Denny's "Who Knows Where the Time Goes," this is a solid folk-blues release.
