We haven’t published CD/DVD reviews on Verandah Music, mainly because there are other outlets for these important notices and comments. But as many musicians and other creative artists are struggling right now, we thought it might be helpful to feature some of the great work that is still being done in spite of everything. These will interest our local readers as well as the many international visitors to this blog.
Reviews will be of Australian traditional music and song and contemporary compositions in those styles, complementing the other items we post. Folk performers generally put a lot of research into the numbers they record and that essential background is usually in the liner notes or booklet accompanying the CD, so you get entertained and informed at the same time.
We begin – in the post below - with Tony Smith’s review of Crossing the Line: Songs of the Southern Ocean by that estimable ensemble of salty seadogs, Forty Degrees South.
