What is spinning?

[JohnMichael]

yet another bleak midwestern morning...
and so, to facsimilate a decent environment the morning starts with Bob Marley and the Wailers on DVD-A
soon to be followed by:
1) Tord Gustavsen Trio-The Ground( I don't remember who made the recommendation but I stumbled across it the other day--a name you can't really forget )
2)Hilary Hahn--Elgar Violin Concerto
3)Maria Muldaur-Sweet Lovin' Ol' Soul

happy listening, one and all

The Hilary Hahn I have in my collection and I enjoy it very much. My question is the Maria Muldaur recording you mention, could you tell me more about it? I can not believe I missed something by Maria unless it is a compilation and I had the music on other albums. To answer the question in a later of your posts I have 3 Weather Report albums but I have not had a chance to listen to the Telarc recording you mentioned.

Now spinning: Jascha Heifetz "Jean Sibelius' Violin Concerto in D Minor"

Yes, young Ms. Hahn is quite something. Some have thrown out the old "technique versus feeling" accusation but she brings enough of everything to the table for my liking.
As for the Maria Muldaur, the jacket reads:

Maria Muldaur's homage to the blues
women who inspired her continues with this follow-up
to the 2002 Grammy Award nominated 'Richland Woman
Blues'.With old friends and guests who are fellow 'keepers
of the flame' Maria has created another masterpiece.

The copyright date on the cd is 2005. Some of the 'fellow keepers of the flame' include Steve James, Suzy Thompson, Dave Mathews,Del Ray and Taj Mahal.
