Waltz of the Whippoorwill.......2007-02-20
Fussy Infant.......2003-02-11
My 9 month old boy instantly became a calm happy baby when I first popped this CD in when he got fussy. 6 months later, it magically turns him into a happy baby boy.
What IS it that puts him at ease? Mandolin? I don't know. I have tried other types of relaxing music, but this CD works instantly everytime. His mood changes within 10 seconds and I can usually get him to start giggling and acting like his usual self.
He has a few extra favorite where he will get excited about when it comes on, but all the songs work.
This CD is my livesaver. I have had to buy a CD for both my cars, our boombox and our home stereo system. WALTZ of the Whippoorill has saved us and made our baby even happier
What a wonderful surprise.......2000-10-18
This CD's flavor is mellow-acoustic, with touches of Celtic (before it was cool), jazzgrass, and even blues. Joe Weed (where are you now?) plays the fiddle, guitar, mandolin, and viola beautifully, and is joined by master talents Todd Phillips (on bass) and David Grisman (mandolin, of course) on several tracks. Stunning quality throughout.
If you enjoy innovative acoustic music, you'll love "Waltz of the Whip-poor-will." To quote Darol Anger's comments in the liner notes: "Joe Weed's Waltz of the Whippoorwill is some sweet, sweet acoustic dream- if you hung this music in your kitchen window it'd make rainbows."
a sound gem for many senses.......1999-07-25
