Details:
Ginny Peters. As Long As The Road. âAs Long As The Roadâ is Ginnyâs first studio recording for over twenty years and features 12 songs, 11 of which she has written or
co-written. While in the USA in 2007 to be entered into the, âAmerican Old Time Country Music Hall Of Fameâ in Anita, Iowa, she visited some friends in Nashville, Larry and Kimberley Marrs who own a recording studio in the country music capital, as well as being well known names in the music business. It was decided that Ginny should put down four of her songs while there produced by Larry. Ginny and Larry were so happy with the resulting
recordings that it was decided to complete an album. Over the last 15 months this has been done, with all the tracking, mixing and mastering being undertaken by Larry in Nashville and Ginnyâs vocals being recorded in Christchurch by Arnie van Bussel at Nightshift studios. The resulting vocals being sent to Nashville via the wonders of the internet. Several of the songs on this album have been covered by other artists,
âBeyond The Reasonâ, by Reg Mctaggart, New Zealand and Steve Warren, USA. âMake Me One Promiseâ, by Rhonda Lee, Australia, Kimberly Bibb-Marrs, USA, and
Jodie Vaughan, New Zealand. âBeyond Visionâ, by Kimberly Bibb-Marrs, USA and Shaza Leigh, Australia. âI Can Climb Wallsâ, by Rhonda Lee, Australia and Kimberly Bibb-Marrs, USA. The lyrics, to âBruise With Every Touchâ were written by Ginnyâs son Callum while in his teens after a breakup with a girlfriend of the time. Callum is now married with a daughter of his own, Erin. It was Erin who at the age of three inspired the song and title track,
âAs Long As The Roadâ. âIf I Climbed Upon The Crossâ spent several weeks on the, âUnited Kingdom Christian
Music Allianceâ charts early in 2008 and âThereâs No Good In Being Badâ is still on the charts at number 20 after four months, having been as high as 3. This is Ginnyâs third album. The previous two, âBluebirds Over The Mountainâ and âButterfly Wingsâ having been recorded in the USA in 1988 and 1985 respectively. In the intervening years Ginny has concentrated on her writing and working with her husband Errol in their publishing company, Pegasus Music, which has resulted in her songs being recorded by over forty artists around the world. Another album, âThe Journeyâ was released in 2006 which featured 15 of her songs recorded by some of these artists. âAs Long As The Roadâ contains songs that reflect Ginnyâs view of life and things that have touched her over the years.
