Jack “The Agnostic” Garcia who is often referred to as the “Heavy Metal Joseph Campbell”  continues to play storyteller reciting three obscure adult Fairy Tales from the vast collection of Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm. In the first story The Girl With No Hands – a variation of the Faust legend that originated during the early Roman/Christian era and then spread into the folklore of the Germanic and Norse peoples. An impoverished Miller must chop off the hands of his beautiful and pious daughter in order to avoid being taken down into Hell and that is just the beginning of the story. In the second tale – The Three Snake Leaves – a young hero encounters war, love, death, resurrection and betrayal in a Fairy Tale that is so ancient that scholars cannot agree about the stories time and place of origin. Last but not least , Jack recites a Momento Mori story from Medieval Spain called – Godfather Death- a tale that traveled with the Spanish Conquistadors into Mexico and slowly spread across Latin America. As the Reaper of souls becomes The Godfather to the 13th male child of an impoverished Farmer and transforms the young man into a great healer but at a very high cost indeed.

Six tracks hit forward to advance.
