| "Princess of the Rodeo"
a long playing musical album, that features 11 songs written
in October 2003 on a segment of the Buffalo
Bill Wild West Prayer trip. The album was
designed to be a "Far Eastern Psychedelic Spaghetti Western"
musical experience. The music is inspired by basic American
music styles such as Rock, Folk, Country, Western, Blues,
and good old Hillbilly music; but is influenced by travels
to Tibet, Japan, and other far eastern countries.
W. Dire Wolff made the album, Princess of the
Rodeo, with some well known Marin and Sonoma County musicians.
The album has Mario
Cipollina along with Marin County’s Kurt Huget (Moonlight
Rodeo), Phil Richardson (fiddle with Norton Buffalo and
now with Marin’s Danny Montana & the Bar Association),
and Ed
Michaels (drummer with many other bands and sessions -
recently recording in Marin with guitarist Mark Karan) as
well as Petaluma’s, Neal Carson. You can find the album
on web sites like CD
Baby and Amazon.com
On "Princess of the Rodeo"
W. Dire Wolff plays various guitars, lead guitar, slide guitar,
steel guitar, etc. , sings lead vocals on the tracks, and
plays bass on various tracks. Mario
Cipollina started out playing a couple of bass lines and
then he helped by producing some of the songs too. Kurt

Rodeo, plays mandolin, banjo, piano on the album; but

fantastic rock guitar tracks to the project. |
