Buy Now	Celtic Christmas III (more) »rank: 1318 by: Various Artists : :Bright pennywhistles, lonesome fiddles, mysterious flutes, strumming guitars, the brushed and pounding bodhran sounding like a horse at gallop over snowy roads, and female voices so clear and focused they might be angels calling out through the ether of time. All these elements combine to shape Celtic Christmas III. Among the more sterling tracks are David Agnew and David Downes's 'Wexford Carol' and the original compositions by Lisa Lynne ('Circle of Joy,' 'Home') and Brian Dunning and Jeff Johnson (the vivid 'A Raven in the Snow'). --Martin Keller	Buy Now	Pure Moods, Vol. I (more) »rank: 7194 by: Various Artists, Adiemus, Angelo Badalamenti, David A.

Beyond other selections of beat-enhanced chants and a few ...
Buy Now	Appalachian Stomp: Bluegrass Classics (more) »rank: 2549 by: Various Artists : :Appalachian Stomp is an ideal starter disc for those just beginning to explore bluegrass. Mostly this is because its 18 selections are so immediately accessible. The 'classics' here, in other words, are usually those infrequent bluegrass cuts to have gained radio recognition beyond a core bluegrass audience. That explains why along with timeless standards such as Flatt & Scruggs' 'Foggy Mountain Breakdown' and the Osborne Brothers' 'Rocky Top' we also get 'Dueling Banjos' from the film Deliverance, a cut that is to classic bluegrass what Walter Murphy is to Beethoven. There are less immediately obvious choices too, though. If your previous exposure to ...

Buy Now	Red Hot + Blue: A Tribute to Cole Porter (more) »rank: 10188 by: Various Artists : :There's a long tradition of artists banding together for a noble cause, but--needless to say--good intentions are no guarantee of good art.
