...When I say that my grandmother's maiden name was Davies, and that she was the last person in the family who had any understanding of the Welsh language, you will probably understand why I love Welsh choral music so much. Well, apart from the fact that Wales is truly the land of song, with the best history of choral music in the entire world., that is!
This CD (produced by EMI and Music for Pleasure) has a wide range of Welsh Male voice Choirs from all over Wales. The competition between the different choirs and indeed the different parts of Wales are fiercely competitive. But the strong, intense rivalry is always friendly. Well, MOST of the time, that is!

***Back Sleeve***
A black background with the playlist written on it in white, nice and simple

...Absolute Classic.
the dub connection from dc by earl morgan
some new techinques used here, diverse production skills and crazy off beat effects bring the true elements of dub out of the woodworks!
The way the album progress's realy brings out some true roots elements and manifests into a dreamwork of an album, i could go technical into how its produced, but i want the music to speak for it itself its very well produced and diserves the up most respect.
this is definetly one for the summer vibe, with the top down shirt off and the shades on with a pina colada relaxing in the sun haha or whatever you like to do to relax and enjoy the good time you may have...
