Release notes

[edit]

"Lisa Moscatiello's rich and deep alto voice is the magical thread binding together Second Avenue. The shimmering arrangements featuring fiddle, bouzouki, and harp alongside acoustic, electric, and slide guitar reflect Lisa's background in Celtic music."[citation needed]

Reissue

[edit]

In 2002 Second Avenue was reissued on the Machine Heart Music label with a different running order and two extra tracks - "Little Maggie" and "In the Here and Now".
