The violin is the devil's instrument and when played solo like this makes me want to stop sinning and try to earn a place in heaven - who needs fire and brimstone with this noise as an effective alternative. |

It is so terrible, I had to switch off. Totally unoriented deedledoodle.
Teeth-pulling noise.

Damned lightweight dilettantes. Why won't anyone tackle a serious issue these days? And yes, I like it very much  |

I find it highly unlikely that it's a coincidence. Bill is an artist when it comes to crafting a playlist and that transition isn't something that would just happen. |

I use to go see her every week with Susan McKeown in the early 90s. Amazing to see live.

I would imagine it's her, but those are bow-hairs, not strings. |

I'm very familiar with Jean Luc, but who is David Grisman? (Nothing about him on AMG.) |
