Real Power all kinds of fiddling, December 24, 2008

Tony Thomas (SUNNY ISLES BEACH, FL USA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Raw Fiddle (Audio CD)

FRom the opening "Don't Let the Deal Go Down" through all the Black, Midwestern, Greek, Cajun, Arab, Slavic, and other fiddling from across the United States, this is a real listenable record whether you play the fiddle or not. The title power fiddling is apt because the selections here are not wimpy or tender or without impact. Fiddling across the world, long before many cultures adopted the violin, has been the power that swung dancers' feet, hips, butts, and everything else around. Among both African Americans and European Americans fiddling, usually played solo or with percussion was the main source of dance music until the 20th Century.

You will see why when you listen to this CD. If you put it in your CD player it will be hard to get it out because you will keep wanting to hear this.
