On continuous play...
While unpacking and sifting through thesoupasonic's and mine CD collection after our move back to NY, I was thinking how out of this formidable wealth of musical expession, only three recordings have in some sense withstood the test of time for me.
These recordings are like good old friends - I never get tired of them, they comfort me, whisk me away from any troubles and gently caress me back to life. I am not quite sure what unites these three, but why analyze that which is quite simple: I am immensely fond of these recordings and if you have some spare time and cash, I hope you check them out:
- The Velvet Underground by the Velvet Underground.
- Nigunim by Frank London, Lorin Sklamberg, Uri Caine
- Danubian Trances by Karoly Cserepes (this is the most recent addition, and I'm not sure whether you can get it in the States, but do check out the MySpace link with some of the tracks)
