  BETWEEN THE WATER AND THE WIND

Heidi's first recording, released as a cassette album in 1985, is a collection of Heidi's favorite songs from her first ten years of performing plus three of the first songs she wrote. "Honey In My Tea" is a song about friendship, written for her college roommate and singing partner Gail Rundlett. "The Ballad of Erica Levine" is a humorous story by Bob Blue about a young woman who wants to marry carefully. Three songs by Bill Staines -- "River", "All of Me" and "River Affair" -- are beautifully sung and their inclusion demonstrates Heidi's admiration for this legendary New England songwriter. Many of the songs feature the simplicity of Heidi's solo vocal and guitar, but Tracy Moore's deft 12-string and Weisenborn Hawaiian slide guitar, Dave LeMargee's sparkly banjo, Olemara Peters' wistful pennywhistle, Steve Klein's bass and a chorus of Seattle friends add a warm, tasteful touch to the other arrangements.
