BACKGROUND
This eclectic mix is a celebration of the only radio programme I know that would play three such diverse tracks. My sub theme is the artist and what remarkable treasures they create when in harmony with their instrument. All stringed instruments, the first track develops a spellbinding rhythm, the second expands by using an uplifting percussive beat the third peaks with Victor Wooten using harmonics, rhythm and melody to give a truly outstanding solo performance.
