Here is one nice instrumental

 

[Lazarus Short]

Bought Ian Matthew's LP many years ago, and it had this tune:

My wife is especially fond of this, and the vids about its construction are an education.

A good day at the thrifts today - scored a near-perfect copy of "Warming Up Kansas City," the companion CD of "WARM" which I praised on page six of this thread. But not listening to it yet, as I'm listening to the Mike White Quartet's "Tiempo." The MWQ CD has clips on EweToob, which I have not listened to, but the CD sounds great.

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Is anybody thinking about getting the newly remastered 180 gram Pink Floyd Animals album? I read yesterday that, as usual, David and Dickhead (sounds like a killer name for a new band) couldn't agree on something as simple as the notes for the pics on the inside of the album, so it is shipping without notes. I don't own the Animals album in vinyl so I believe I will be getting one. It was one of my PF favs.

 

[Lazarus Short]

I heard R.S.I. yesterday on the local classical station. The composer named the piece after a common problem piano players have.

I just read about this band on Quora, and decided to have a listen on Ewetoob.

For some of us, especially as we get older, acoustic music sounds better and better. Here's an example.

Good music played by talented people never goes out of style.

Some of this new crap out there is obviously a money-grab and will be gone from the rear view mirrors in short time.

On the other hand...you sometimes stumble onto some not-so-acoustic music that just amazes you:

 

[Lazarus Short]

A wonderful tune starts at 24:15...not that the rest is bad. Here is Finland's Loituma at their best, and you even get "Levan Polkka" at the end. "Valamo Cloister Bells," the one starting at 24:15 is music good to drift off to - I wish it were the whole album. Get really mellow before you listen...

[Lazarus Short]

I had a listen to Aes Dana just now, and they are far from traditional, but I admit that "Celtic" covers a huge range of music. This is my idea of traditional, and I have this album on LP, bought at a De Dannan concert in Kansas City years ago:

Gene, since you are a fan of Enya, are you aware that she (and her sister, Marie Brennan, real name Maire Philomena Ni Bhraonain) used to sing in the band Clannad? They're very good - I have nine albums by them.
