Very fun. When it gets to the little breaks I can't help but throw in a hearty "YEAH!" much to the consternation of my officemate.

This song makes me feel like I'm walking the streets of Tunis again. Fond memories. Thanks.

Last year, GF took me to Victoria to see Loreena. Her band is a collection of excellent players and she is absolutely charming. This song was awesome. I had never heard from her before other than on the radio. I was definitely won over!

Hmm, So much of her stuff sounds the same. I get all mixed up with which song is which. Question, y'all, are the albums the same way too? Or is there enought variation to be able to tell one song from the other? At first, I thought this was from the album with the blue tent on the front....

Ethereal definitely comes to mind as does the bar scene from the movie "Beau Brummel" (either that or a bunch of guys riding horses across the desert as a movie sound track). Either way, nice tune and a break from the more normal "indie" music usually played.

Bill and Rebecca must be "mellowing out" before the weekend officially arrives.

Can you say, "ethereal?" Sure. Great music for a rainy Sunday morning!

Just saw Loreena at a show here last Monday--fantastic performance. Spent a fair bit of time trying to identify some of the instruments being played...never seen a hurdy-gurdy before, for instance...
