French Canadian, Irish & Scottish Fiddle Music
 $15.65  
Although grounded in Celtic mysticism, Loreena McKennitt ranges beyond her roots in THE MASK AND THE MIRROR, searching for the confluence of Christian, Jewish, and Islamic cultures. As its title suggests, "The Mystic's Dream," which opens the album, is a highly visual piece that moves from Gregorian monasteries to Moorish markets, employing tabla, oud, and Uilleann pipes.
In "The Dark Night of the Soul," McKennitt sets her voice to a 15th century love poem by St. John of the Cross. The verses were addressed by the mystic to God but could just as well be from one lover to another.
Recording information: McClear Place, Toronto, Canada; Woodley Farm, Stratford (1994).
Personnel includes: Loreena McKennitt (vocals, harp, accordion, piano, keyboards, synthesizer, organ pipes, dumbeg); Brian Hughes (guitar, oud, balalaika, electric sitar); Donal Lunny (bouzouki, bodhran), Abraham Tawfik (oud, nai); Hugh Marsh (fiddle); Anne Bourne (cello, background vocals); Ofra Harnoy (cello); Patrick Hutchinson (Uillean pipes); ...
| | Enya Shepherd Moons CD (1991)
French Canadian, Irish & Scottish Fiddle Music
$14.39  
Her otherworldly voice is trance-like in such songs as the tranquil "Shepherd Moons," "Angeles," "Evacuee," and "Marble Halls." Accessibly lilting, awash in synth strings, "Caribbean Blue" is this album's answer to "Orinoco Flow," Enya's gigantic worldwide pop hit. The song, as all the others, transports the listener to another place. "How Can I Keep Singing?" is Irish folk music at its best. "Ebudae" is a percussive march with a mushrooming synth, and with its delicate vocals, one must marvel at the beauty of Enya's keening voice.
"Heavenly" ...

French Canadian, Irish & Scottish Fiddle Music
$11.49
L. Abramson sings with her hollow-body electric guitar the unusual songs that people shut up to listen to. Dark and melancholic, her songs have both sweet and sad undertones, without the kind of art-kid pretension that makes a dictionary an essential accessory at some shows. Leah sings songs that are haunting, intelligent and beautiful, like the long lost love-child of Jason Molina and Joni Mitchell. She is devoted to songcraft and performance, all the while wrapping dark themes in lovely melodies. 2005 sees the release of her new CD, Bedroom/City: 9 songs, some hopeful, some bitter, but all lyrically unique with poignant sentiments.AMERICANA UKL. Abramson “Bedroom/City” (Copperspine Records 2005) Some good signs among strong influence The first full length record by Vancouver native Leah Abramson (there was previously an ep ‘8 songs from the attic’). She has an interesting voice that wanders from a Woodstock era Joni Mitchell on ‘Alligators’ to something akin to a Neil Young ‘After The Goldrush’ falsetto on ‘Hallmark Lullaby Company’. Less predictably ‘Gerberas’ has that lazy Cat Power quality, with the ghost of Elliott Smith affecting the mood. The opening track has a drone not a million miles from Nick Drake’s ‘Know’. For ‘Soft Parts’ we’re back in Cat Power territory, but more due to the guitar than the vocals. Having just rattled off a list of strong influences, that’s not to say this is an overly derivative record, merely the title of ‘(Come to the) Landfill’ invokes more imagery than many songwriters muster with acres of lyrics, this song has a lighter more optimistic note than much of the record, its hard to be sad when a kazoo features, though the line ‘we’ll search for diamonds’ is possibly stretching the optimism into something altogether different. Closer ‘Emergency Exit Plan’ is arguably the best on the record, as affecting a suicide/runaway song as you could wish to hear, and, admirably, Leah does it without sinking too much into Morrissey-esque ...

Mark Roebuck, Michael Colley and their band Sub Seven create an explosively inventive sonic solar system blending pop, metal, funk, and classic rock influences! Each song tells a different story, rich in narrative. From the drug-addled gangsters in Henry and Paul, to the kidnapping uncle in Riding With My Uncle, the songs are densely populated with outrageous and original characters. Sub Seven's lead singer, Mark Roebuck co-wrote with Dave Matthews "The Song That Jane likes" for the seminal Tribe of Heaven project completed in 1990. He was also the lead singer of the classic underground power-pop band The Deal, which recently had an anthology of material released by Not Lame Records. Michael Colley, lead guitarist of SubSeven ...
