Terraplane Blues defines diversity - Men and a woman, fl and white, young and mature, electric and acoustic all meeting on a common ground, the blues.
Terraplane Blues feature the booming, gritty vocals of Jennifer Wright, a blues chanteuse with a deep blues timbre to her voice, that is effectively demonstrated on “Dirty Laundry”, a churning shuffle fired by some great harp (Dr Philly Ray Proctor), tough guitar (Gary Wright), a hard riffing horn section, and percolating B3.
Terraplane Blues has it made and is likely to go on as long as the marriage of vocalist Jennifer and guitarist-vocalist Gary Wright.

The Terraplane is overkill for most three season use unless large amounts of food or water must be carried or the hiker is carrying more than his or her "fair share" for some reason.
Pack Reputation: The Terraplane is known as a rugged pack that can take a lot of abuse, is extremely versatile, and can carry large, heavy loads more comfortably than many other packs of a similar size.
I will keep the Terraplane for those winter hiking trips where I need to carry a lot of bulky and heavy gear, but I have not used the Terraplane for three season hiking since I bought the lighter pack.

 Amazon.com: Terraplane: Books: Jack Womack   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
The book opens brilliantly, a near-future capitalist Moscow (*Terraplane* was written on the eve of Yeltsin's coup) blazing red neon like an outdoor casino (the fruits of *sozializtkapitalizm*), a wrathweary American general and his enforcer contracted for a zany bit of industrial-espionage, a Fourth World romp in search of bizarre and unlikely Teknologische.
"Terraplane" is a haunted examination of what it is to be human, laced with wit and sad romance.
Despite the presence of many sci fi cliches, and a fairly predictable plot, Terraplane is an improvement on its predecessor, Ambient.

 CD Baby: THE TERRAPLANE PROJECT: untitled vol.1

Equally notable are The Terraplane Project's original tracks, "Take Me Higher (on freedom)" written by Pruitt and Hyde with Hytchcoc reciting a verse on freedom from the prophet Kahlil Gibran.

 Backpacker Magazine - Dana Design Terraplane
Many Backpacker staffers and field testers have had similar experiences with the Terraplane, a 6,300-cubic-inch pack (extended) that swallows incredibly large amounts of gear and somehow lets you carry it in comfort.
The key to the 24-year-old Terraplane's success is its simplicity.
The components are fixed, so there's no swaying or swinging, and the Terraplane comes in five different sizes (XS to XL), with five hipbelt sizes and six shoulder harness sizes.

The Dana Design Terraplane X is “expensive,” but displays “excellent craftsmanship” and “carries heavy loads like a dream.” This pack conforms to the fit of your back, offers additional lumbar support and is terrific for a variety of body shapes.
I read a review that said turning the top part into a fanny pack on their Granite Gear Nimbus was a bit uncomfortable because there was no padding on the belt, but that's the way they all are.
The Terraplane's construction is solid, I love the double pockets on the back, and it's carrying ability is by far the best I have felt.

 Scott Ainslie's Terraplane
Although I have become known as an expert on Robert Johnson and the Delta blues, Terraplane also provides strong examples of Piedmont and Chicago styles, gospel and several original pieces.
I play acoustic, electric, and National guitars, and even three songs on a home-made one-string diddley bow (can you guess which popular blues legend took his stage name from that instrument?!).
His fine new CD, Terraplane, treads a lot of familiar territory, covering tunes by Robert Johnson ("Walking Blues," "If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day,"), Blind Blake ("Chumpman Blues"), Rev. Gary Davis, and Mississippi Jonn Hurt.
