why is that? i think she is good

 

How exactly is that possible? How can you think that he/she is good? Egghhhhh, her voice is that of a cat in heat or a Texas farmer in the cornfield on a scathingly hot day. Come on dude, she is baaaad, and not in a cool way.

 

On the other hand, I'm listening to the spectacular Gato Berbieri's Europa. To me it's the quintessential New York/Manhattan sound on the summer evening crossing the Queens borough bridge. He's one funky dude. Anyone had the pleasure of seeing him perform live? I missed him at the Bluenote. Booo me! He just lets his sax rip like it was the last piece of smoked ham.

Because Moderator is a euphemism for Lord. Feudalism lives on Hyeforum, haha.

 

And Moushegh has quite an eclectic taste in classical music. I'm too timid to venture outside of Bach.

 

Ahhh, you don't know what you're missing, Shaunt jan. If you like Bach, then I'm sure you'll enjoy other Baroque composers; Händel, Vivaldi, Pachelbel, Corelli, etc.

That's true - I have enjoyed what little I have heard from Handel, Vivaldi, and Pachelbel.
