One of
Jimmie Spheeris' Epic titles of the 1970s was his third album, a classic titled
The Dragon Is Dancing. The album was produced by
Henry Lewy, a well-respected producer/engineer who had an impressive track record when he entered the studio with
Spheeris in 1975. In addition to working with
Joan Baez,
Neil Young, and
Procol Harum,
Lewy was the engineer on many of
Joni Mitchell's best albums.
Lewy always had an ear for singer/songwriters, and he proves to be quite an asset to
Spheeris on reflective, contemplative gems like "In the Misty Woods" and "Blue Streets." Between
Spheeris' heartfelt singing and writing and
Lewy's imaginative production,
The Dragon Is Dancing never fails to hold the listener's attention.
