No review today thanks to preparing for the new semester, but in honor of Damo Suzuki’s passing, we wanted to share an EP he did with former Mars Volta guitarist Omar Rodríguez-López. Please enjoy your Saturday!

One more from Harbin. We will be back to normal posting tomorrow.

No reviews today as I am in Harbin, China for a rest.

Merry Christmas to my friends on the Julian Calendar! This version of “For God Is With Us,” is done in an Appalachian choir style. I can’t think of anything more American or more Orthodox that this organic piece of work.

There will be no reviews either today or tomorrow as Orthodox Christians observe Christmas Eve and the Nativity on what was always the Ecumenical Church Calendar until the devising of the modern Gregorian Calendar, so for those who hold to the Councils, today is December 24. We wish you a Merry Christmas (again), and leave you with today’s selection, a hymn of wailing by Saint King David by the Georgian folk group, Trio Mandili. Be well.

We would like to wish our readers, especially those who are Roman Catholic and Protestant, a quiet, happy and blessed (Gregorian Calendar) Christmas, and we look forward to bringing you much more music in 2024. Merry Christmas!

No reviews today thanks to a busy schedule, so some reggae will suffice for today.

Today is a rest day thanks to horrid summer rain in Beijing, so I leave you with The Who’s legendary guitarist and second frontman, Pete Townsend, doing justice to a song originally performed by The (English) Beat.
