The Acoustic Thread - What are you listening to?

Perhaps and arguably the best movie score written!

I agree and that's why we have a DVD copy here. Wes Studi played one of the most dynamic villains ever.

That music and the filming location(s) for Last of the Mohicans is why it remains one of my favorite movies. The use of low natural light is done very well.

If you use the YouTube “copy” option, it will display the video, not just the link. You might have to select the 3 dots in “Share” to find Copy.

David Rawlings and Gillian Welch are great.

Kate Wolf, gone far too soon. Nina Gerber, Kate’s guitarist, is so underrated.

Pat Enright, "The 50 Megaton Voice"

 

[Wandering Sagebrush]

I hear a bluegrass version of John Denver in the that 50 megaton voice. He’s good.

Oregon Trail - Joni Harms (apologies for the pedal steel, it’s mostly acoustic )

Oregon Trail - Joni Harms (apologies for the pedal steel, it’s mostly acoustic )

Why the apology?

I heard the pedal steel with my ears after the digital bits were processed by my iPad, electronically amplified, converted from electrical signals in the speakers to acoustic wave, carried by the air into my ears where they wiggled the fibers in my inner ears, were converted to nerve signals & finally were recognized by my brain as music.

Even the pedal steel signals started as string vibrations. What makes the pedal steel not acoustic? Only if you are hearing the performance live with no electronics can it be qualitatively a different experience than “acoustic” instruments.

Any music recorded & played back cannot be called “acoustic” if one is being pedantic about it
