04-28-22 Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #488 is an hour of visionary acoustic improvisational music recorded live by the Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, Native flute, acoustic guitar, harmonica and ukulele, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on Native drums and congas. Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington Massachusetts in April of 2022, today’s show begins with the staid, mystical “All Good Things Take Time”, a lovely minor air featuring a fine lyric from Mariam and compelling piano inventions from Bob. “Flowing Fountain” is a beautiful, deeply felt spiritual ballad led by Mariam’s poetry of gratitude to nature as well as her deeply lyrical Native flute work and “Luminous Light” is a sprawling, hypnotic series of musical motifs taken at a quick clip with excellent conga work from Craig supporting Mariam’s moon poetry. “I’m Here, I’m Listening” begins with harmonica fanfares from Mariam against call-and-response piano from Bob before developing into a steady, majestic gospel ballad and we close today with Mariam’s driving “I’m The Full Moon”, characterized by fine ensemble work by The Gaea Star Band.
