Advantages: Different moods to relate to; some relaxing; some upbeat and lift your spirits Disadvantages: I only have it on tape
Call me old fashioned but I only own this on tape. I absolutely adore it; I love American Indian music and chants. It's so therapeutic and relaxing but with fantastic beat and rhythm with a variety of instruments.
My tape hasa simple picture of an American Indian on the front in black and white (as the one Caio has provided). I don't know the price but for a tape, you could probably find it for 5p online and then just pay P & P.
Each 'side' of ... ...songs each. There is American Indian chanting scattered about some of the songs but mainly it's music. Some are fast and some are slow. It is very hard to review this. The tempo is maintained by varying degrees of drum beats, flutes, panpipes and other instruments that I cannot identify.
Each song seems to tell as story. The upbeat ones are probably rejoyce at catching a buffalo or something and the slower sadder ones may be focussed on the struggle ...

In recent years, the little-known Warsaw Village Band have risen from obscurity to earn some much deserved recognition, playing several high-profile festivals including Glastonbury 09, and even clinching the Best Newcomer award at the BBC Radio 3 World Music Awards in 2004. 'Uprooting' is a fine example of the band's capability, and also of their potential to grow and continue.
Comprising six young musicians from Poland's capital, the band blend ... ...passionate and hypnotising set of tracks which should be essential listening for any music fan.
I had the honour of first hearing the band when they performed at Musicport Festival 2008, a very surreal experience indeed as they were supporting Rolf Harris! Their set consisted of many of the tracks from 'Uprooting'.
The performance put on by the band was both aurally and visually stunning, in part due to their incorporation in their music of many ...

...Devotion’ James Young's Joanna was made on the battered upright piano in his house - an instrument most pianists would reject without a moment's hesitation. Bad pianos - in pubs, bars, clubs, cafes and the parental home - are the bane of musicians and music teachers: the sustain pedal doesn't work; the felts are worn; mezzopiano is indistinguishable from fortissimo. And that's before you get on to the problem of keeping it in tune. Players develop ... ...wisdom on its head. Joanna is a hymn of devotion that both dignifies and delights in his old piano's imperfections. As Billy Jenkins wrote in Notes on Crap Pianos: "Years of warp and deterioration have ripened each mechanical artefact into its own unique sound. Do not attempt music scored for a good piano." Young describes his piano as "a ready-made that needed to be celebrated for its intrinsic peculiarities". There are antecedents: Virginia Astley's ...
