  Mudsongs : The Music of David Morreale
It's just not as hard, Fans have described David as the James Dean of the folk scene and while his music is too broadly based to encompass only one style or genre, a beautifully-played acoustic guitar and soaring baritone are at the center of his sound.
On his new CD, From The Dirt, David has recorded a collection of songs in which he and his cast of characters experience poverty, redemption, joy, and what it means to watch ones dreams go up in smoke and try to fill the empty space they've left behind.
And in 2005 David was a Finalist in The Kerrville Folk Festival's New Folk song contest, and won a Maryland State Arts Council grant in Composition.

  Lumberjack - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lumberjacks could be found wherever there were vast forests to be harvested and a demand for wood, including Scandinavia, Canada, and parts of the United States.
American lumberjacks were first centered in northeastern states such as Maine and then followed the general westward migration on the continent to the Upper Midwest, and finally the Pacific Northwest.
Lumberjacks, especially in the Pacific Northwest, incorporated many terms from the Chinook Jargon into their language including such terms as "skookum" (excellent or impressive), "muckeymuck" (executives or higher-ups), and "hooch" (liquor) which are still familiar today.

 TURPS STORY: The Lumberjack's Song - Part Three   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
The usually so solitary lumberjack has been staring at the assembly of people with a trance-like quietude for a while, ignoring his wooden companion.
Then all his thoughts are interrupted as the lumberjack wakes up and starts singing a cheerful lumberjack song about the beauty of the morning sun rising over the chopped trunks of a thousand trees.
Many soldiers are whimpering softly as their ears try to forget the seemingly eternal music performance, the lumberjack goes through the numbers wondering if he forgot some of the stars of his repertoire, the orc is worrying about the order in which he put his pamphlets, and the ent thinks shiveringly about logs and fire.

In all the brouhaha, everyone even fails to notice his warming-up scales and thrills where he imitates the birds of the forest, a great tree falling, a motor saw, and a ridiculous joke as only lumberjacks know how to make them, all at once.
Laurie's song, which has earlier only reduced peaceful squirrels into homicidal maniacs and fine firs into January-style Christmas trees, is now free from the sound-absorption of the forest.

 Amazon.com: Jackyl: Music: Jackyl   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Though each and every track on this record is well-done, catchy and worthy of being a single, by far the most noticeable song is "The Lumberjack." Its basic construction is nothing new: an elementary, clichd blues progression played at a relaxed swing tempo.
This became a defining trait of a Jackyl record: each album since has featured a "chainsaw song." Perhaps the only one to top "The Lumberjack," though, was "Headed for Destruction," from their sophomore release Push Comes to Shove.
There are songs about booze ("Brain Drain"), sex ("Dirty Little Mind") and all-around being a "Redneck Punk." The uncensored 11-track version of the album culminates in the album's one low point, the juvenile, almost comically profane "She Loves my C---."
