Favourite ECM Titles

Orpheus10, check out David Hudson "Rainbow Serpent" or "The Art of Didjeridoo", also the album "Australia, Sound of the Earth" (Hudson, Hopkins, Roach). Attention though, this can be waaaay too much to many western ears. There are certainly more melodious albums that often cross the line into pure kitsch, however (imho). So, listen to the samples first please!

Airegin, you closed the Oud - Bandoneon loop for me. along with Anouar Brahem, one of my greatest musical discoveries of the last decade is Richard Galliano on Accordeon/Bandoneon. I like his playing better than Piazolla (Galliano plays quite a few Piazolla compositions though). I first heard Galliano on Brahem's excellent CD "Khomsa" and have since aqcuired over 10 of his discs (as well as seen him live). My favorite would be "Blow Up", which is a duo with Michel Portal on clarinet.

Karelfd, since I know what a carroboree is, it can't get too "outback" for my ears.

Excellent, then those albums could be of interest, whereby "Sound of the Earth" is the most innovative, I think.

Karelfd, I just discovered "Australian Didgeridoo Music Shop" online. Check it out and give me your opinion. You now have the title of "Didgeridoo expert".
