Dark of the Moon by Grey Larsen / Paddy League

Grey Larsen is an American whiz at traditional Irish folk music, flute & tin whistle division - and if you think this is a set of Irish drinking songs, best get notion out of your head. This set is entirely instrumental, and Larsen’s tone is as achingly pure and serenely beautiful as Don Cherry’s trumpet or Rahsaan Roland Kirk’s flute, and most of the traditional melodies have a balance of delicacy and durability as Andean, Japanese and West African winds-oriented trad sounds. Dark of the Moon is music that goes straight to the heart w/ out bypassing the mind.
