Subject: Yo ho huh?
LoveHounds may be interested in a rather odd Christmas CD: Gross Santa's Yuletide Favorites Sound Museum AVL90117CD Sound Museum, RSI, Boston MA 617-423-4959 It's a compilation of traditional Christmas music performed in non- traditional ways. The performances are for the most part in the alternative rock genre -- lots of synths and drone guitar. It's of interest to KaTefans because: 1) The arrangements are more complex than is the norm for this type of music, 2) There are several female vocalists represented 3) There is a truly great version of the Coventry Carol by Patty Barkus -- I don't know anything about her, but I hope to learn more; the production (with background whispers, odd synth programming, and complex overlayed percussion) is definitely working along KaTely lines... Also, two of the groups are friends of mine... This is a Boston area project, and I don't know if it is being nationally distributed, but it's worth a listen if you can find it. footah! greg -- gb10@gte.com -- December *is* magic again!
