Well, old guy, you are making it difficult on my brain.

8 track? Hmmmm. Let me see. Last time I had it out ~~ a couple of years ago, I was listening to Ian & Sylvia. Not sure which one. I had several.

LP? Ballads and Bluegrass by Walter Forbes was the last lp on the turntable. That was a couple of months ago. Now I can listen to it on the computer.

Cassette? A Christmas Carol by The Forester Sisters. I rather suspect I must have listened to that back in December.

Gramophone? Unfortunately, that has been gone since about 1956. I still regret its passing, though. There is a good chance that among the last things played on it would have been any number of Bob Wills tunes or John McCormack's Keep The Home Fires Burning.

And now, to bring things up to the present ~~

The CD Player? Out Of The Blue, outstanding young/oldtime group from Arkansas. Actually, they are 46, but that is for three of them.

The Computer? This varies from day to day, even hour to hour, but most recent extended listening has been to The Dead Ringer Band, Bill, Diane, Kasey & Nash Chambers ~~ as good as country gets in this day and age.

In my CD player right now is my new CD of my own original songs, "Mars Outback". I just got the mastered copy back from the studio and I'm listening to the completed album for only the second time. I will be sending this off to Disk Makers this afternoon or tomorrow and expect to have copies for sale in 3-4 weeks. Which is good, because I will be in England in 6 weeks performing at the Broadstairs Folk Festival in Kent. Whoopeee!!!

Skarpi's 'Rosin Ockkar'. Even though it's mostly in Icelandic the musicianship is very good. I love his voice - and I like the female voice too. I'll be listening to it until I know the songs and tunes. 'Rose of Allendale' is on it - in English! Beautiful.

In the player right now, huh? Yes, and pretty much continuously for the last two weeks...



"Da Hertzog Jorg Hochzeit Hett" - by the Landshuter Hofkapelle, performed in Landshut, Germany for the medieval wedding reenactment known as the Landshuter Hochzeit 1475.

The songs are from around 1350 to about the 1500s, most grouped as they would have been known at the time of the wedding. A couple of my favorites:

Venite a laudare - Laudario di Cortona, 13th C

Un cavalier di Spagna - Anon., 15th C

Rodrigo Martines - Anon, 1500

and my absolute passion, which I heard sung live by the tenor who performs it on this CD...

Ich het czu hannt geloket mir - Monch von Salzburg, 1350-1400 (just discovered there are actually a number of recordings of this piece if you do a Google on the title as I have it above - even one available from Amazon. I got mine in person at the reenactment in Landshut this summer by a stroke of very good fortune and some amazing generosity... )
