JanioV, you sound a closed-minded bigot and more than a tad ridiculous! It also spurred me on to make a small monthly donation to RP to make up for all the fabulous music RP has introduced me to! Thank you RP!!! |

If you want 100%, you'll have to start your own radio station and even then I bet you'd play something that you liked, say, 10 years ago that you no longer like. And then what would you do? I think a 95% amazing ratio is pretty outstanding and certainly more than worthy of a donation. Personally, I think you're just looking for a excuse not to support the station. |

Her voice was in great form and Hugh Marsh of violin was superb. Good band and the Arts Centre was perfect venue. Canadian national treasure. Hugh Marsh played and tour with Bruce Cockburn many moons ago. He hasn't lost anything with age. |

edit: I just read your comments and you appear to be a racist because apparently any music created outside of the USA is not to be tolerated. Just a suggestion but you might want to pull you head out of your arse.

Hm. Kinda sad.
Every time Bill puts up a world track like this, or, say something from Mali, I take the opportunity to discover something I'd never get to enjoy anywhere else.
And then get back to Pearl Jam or The Allman Bros or Neko Case or Duke Ellington or ... Come back more often dude! |

Did anybody know that it was indeed Marco who brought back the ballgame (Polo) to Italy. He first saw it in the steppe of what is Kazachstan today! |

this is a very very very old tune - been played in the middle east for more than centuries..
thnx to Loreena McKennitt for revising it - surely would have been nice of her if she was sharing her references for this music :)
