Windham Hill CD Finds

Normally I wouldn't do a review on an artist or album in random order, but since this is only temporarily, I thought it would not only keep you guys entertained but it can also help me get back into the swing of things in terms of blog post making.

Anyway, the reason I only come on here monthly now is because I haven't been on here lately due to college work and illnesses in the stomach. During the days when I'm not on, however, I have purchased my own copies of Windham Hill CDs at my nearest Goodwill store. So far, I bought three. I've seen more but I couldn't afford all of them so I selected the ones that were in the best condition so far. The following Windham Hill CDs I purchased are: Jim Brickman - By Heart: Piano Solos, Nightnoise: A Windham Hill Retrospective, and Modern Mandolin Quartet - Intermezzo.

 Here is a picture of the Windham Hill CD finds that I managed to purchase at Goodwill so far:


I am really excited to share with you these albums. I will be posting one of these albums on my blog every Wednesday for three weeks starting next Wednesday until I'm able to run this blog the way I used to. I'm sorry for the monthly inconveniences for 2014 is not my year. Thank you all for understanding.

Happy Easter! See you next week!

Live at Montreux (1984)

For their second LP, Darol Anger invited Mike Marshall, Todd Philips and Andy Narell to join he and Higbie, as mention two weeks ago, and they soon became the Darol Anger and Barbara Higbie Quintet, later changing it to Montreux. Balakrishnan left the band to study composition and Anger took his position in playing the violin (full time). The band, minus Balakrishnan, performed at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1984,  and their performances were recorded there for the release of their second album. Here is the album cover.

George Winston - December 1982 (Christmas 2014 Post)

Happy Christmas Eve everyone! For this year's post, it will be a late one due to the fact that the holidays came by too quickly for me to prepare myself. Tonight I will be reviewing George Winston's 1982 album, December . To learn more about George Winston, click the link here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Winston Now to begin, December is George Winston's fourth solo piano album, released in 1982 as a holiday album, follow up to the album Autumn , and as a tribute to the winter season. In 2001, a 20th Anniversary Edition of the album was released, including two bonus tracks not included on the original release. As of last year (2013), the album was again reissued by Valley Entertainment with Dancing Cat Records, since the original Windham Hill label is now defunct. This most recent reissue has been packaged in a Digipak and features a revised cover art, making the image wider and blending the text onto the art cover rather than above it. For comparison&#

Shutting down this site...APRIL FOOLS! But seriously, I really haven't been very active with this blog lately. However I have been coming up with ideas on how to re-organize the blog as well as going album shopping online and at thrift stores. I will continue to keep you updated on my official return.
