05-28-20 Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #395 was recorded in May 2020 at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts, and is an hour of live improvised acoustic music featuring the Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, acoustic guitar, ukulele, shrudi box and native flute, Bob Sherwood on piano, Craig Harris on congas and native drums and Robin Rooney on vocals and djimbe. Today’s show begins with the lovely mystical raga “I Am Expressing My Soul’s Deepest Passion”, an eastern piece with a deeply spiritual flow featuring fine vocals from Mariam and Robin. “Let’s Sail Along” continues the mystical mood with more great vocals and an imaginative piano backing from Bob. “Jophy The Monkey” is a whimsical tale set to a varied, energized musical backing and “Rialia” is a lush and mysterious take of a classic song by Mariam. “Let’s Sing To The Coloratura” is a relaxed, meditative folk song and today’s closing number is a sprightly folk tune to a spring morning called “Ah The Morning Oh Yeah”.
