The dictionary definition of Huckster is
1. One who sells wares or provisions in the street; a peddler or hawker. 2. One who uses aggressive, showy methods to promote or sell a product.

This is most definitely true of Manitoba Hal. He has been a travelling musician for the past 10 years playing everywhere from coffee joints to festival stages. This recording is a solo "live off the floor" recording of his unique and powerful blues songs performed on ukulele.

about

Huckster was recorded "live off the floor" in Hal's one hundred year old Victorian Cottage in Nova Scotia. There is no overdubbing and it's a real snapshot of an artist and his craft. Two songs feature the use of looping technology to create a "band feel" but for the most part the recording showcases the power of a talented musician with the guts to appear without accompaniment.

Al Wood from Ukulele Hunt calls this CD "Essential Listening"
