What's the oddest thing in your music collection?


For me, it's a CD titled "Kashmir: The Symphonic Led Zeppelin".

Yes, it's Led Zeppelin songs played by The London Philharmonic Orchestra.

It's actually quite interesting, to me anyways. For a review and sampling the music, see:

So, what's the oddballs in your collections?

You mean like Oi Va  Voi? You betcha! Good stuff. CD is “Rough Guide to Klezmer”

 

 

I have one (on CD, not sure it was released on LP) of a guy playing a shofar but I think he is sporting a third eye. There's a whole body of this stuff, a genre. some of it is pretty out there!

I have a nice shofar on the mantle in family room with a yoga frog right next to it. Might have to add a third eye to the frog…..🙏

Whart:

Not it, but I’m placing an order for it - thanks.

Don’t know why I like listening to this stuff as I shied away from it as a kid (1 older sister and 4 female first cousins who lived a few houses away).

I also have a small collection of mono recordings of tribal music (mainly New Zealand) which were made on portable Nagra tape recorders per the album notes.

Great recordings aside the music just mezmorizes me.

Good to hear that about Demme.

If I may stretch 'oddest' to include most avant-garde: Aisha Devi's "DNA Feelings"

From the bandcamp album description:

"She is a rebel and a radical alchemist who is breaking down barriers and traversing dimensions with her art...Devi applies meditation techniques in her approach to production and performance, channeling metaphysical research, ritualistic practice and healing frequencies into an alternate club paradigm." 

A very trippy listen. Awesome bass on some tracks. Profound at high volumes.
