11-16-24 Pushing The Envelope: Music Decidedly Left of Center

Greetings!

So, during my recent jaunt to Europe, I found a killer used CD/vinyl store in Budapest and was tempted to dispose of my clothes and just fill my suitcase up with CDs. The track from George Harrison's "Electronic Sound" is a sampling from the stack I did procure, with other items likely to show up in the coming weeks.

I'm also happy to highlight electric guitarist Garrett Gleason's "Myths & Hymns", incredibly imaginative take on Adam Guettel's beautiful song cyle.

Enjoy!

Joel
