"shake
the ladder" (1991)
"Barnett achieves a delicious tension, as alluring and unnerving
as a gossamer spider's web. Her hot, hip, sophisticated compositions
sometimes smolder, sometimes burn, but at all times tug at the deep
nerves." —Andy Glass, The Music Paper

“ janie
barnett” (1988)
On
vinyl. Produced by Mick Hanson and jb. Recording, artwork
and design by Mick Hanson. We made a record with band members,
thinking
we
would bypass the major
labels and sell on the streets. There were a good handful of others
doing it as well. We all thought it was an idea that just might
catch on, and one or two band members rightly predicted it would
be the future of the music business.

"from
a glass house" (2000)
artwork by Kurt Godwin
A
collection of jazz tunes recorded live by Jazz Neighbors,
aka the Hollin Hills Jazz Ensemble. The community of
Hollin Hills in
Northern Virginia has been hailed as a beacon of architectural design – light-filled
houses meant to share space with the natural landscape rather than
usurp it. In 2000 Hollin Hills celebrated 50 years of community life,
overgrown ivy and aversion to sidewalks with a party, culminating
one year later with a recording by the party’s hired band – Peter
Edeleman, Bob Field, Bill Radin, Jim West, and Janie Barnett, five
musicians who grew up together in the community.
