Loaded, Leather, Moonroof: Don Ross

© Don Ross 1997

Loaded. Leather. Moonroof. released in November, 1997. The album "...is a further exploration for a rich sense of harmony and groove" according to Don. The CD treats Don's listeners to a compilation of diverse sounds that reflects his influence by all types of music. On this album, Don passionately plays the six-string and seven-string guitars as well as the dobro. He is often accompanied by several other musicians whom all add their specialty.

Rat Review

Loaded, Leather, Moonroof. is one of my all time favorite DR tunes. It is surreal to see DR close his eyes, lurch back, and trash out this tune live. He's not human...

Don Ross : Passion Session

Solo Acoustic Guitar

Don's Passion Session CD, recorded in Berlin's Passionskirche, was released in March 1999 on Narada/Virgin Records. The recording brings Don back to his roots as a solo fingerstyle guitarist, as he produces his first totally solo album ever for Narada's Masters of Acoustic Guitar series. Don got the news of the offer of a new contract with Narada while on tour in Germany in November 1998. The planned release date for his first CD for the company was so soon that he decided to team up with his recording engineer friend Knut Becker right away and record the album straight to two-track digital through a Schoeps stereo microphone in the acoustically perfect confines of the Passionskirche (The Church of the Passion) in Berlin's funky Kreuzberg neighbourhood.
