09-16-21 Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #459 is an hour of visionary acoustic improv music featuring Mariam Massaro and Bob Sherwood on vocals, Native flute, celtic harp, 12-string acoustic guitar, shruti box and ukulele and piano respectively. Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in August 2021, today’s inspiring show begins with the expansive, hypnotic “A Fine Mist Of Melodies” a drifting journey featuring beautiful vocals and native flute from Mariam and evocative piano from Bob. “Let The Voice Of Creation” is a mystical raga underpinned by Mariam’s acoustic 12-string guitar and “Blue Moon” is another drone-based piece with Mariam on shruti box as Bob weaves a darkling, shaded piano motif around Mariam’s lovely vocal and Native flute runs. Mariam drives “Oh Mother”, a beautiful and expansive folk song, with her chiming 8-string ukulele on this inspiring and gorgeous little song. Today’s show completes with Mariam’s Earth anthem, “We Call In The Elements”, here given a spirited and driving reading driven by Mariam’s insistent, tight ukulele.
