$3.25 will hardly buy you a cup of coffee, but it will buy you 78 minutes of the finest Scandinavian music ever released in the US. As the folks at Northside Records like to say, this 20-track overview of the most up-to-date music from one of the world's most sophisticated trad music scenes is "cheaper than food!" This 1998 release is an ideal introduction to the hauntingly beautiful music of Sweden, Norway and Finland. From traditional dance tunes played on the Swedish nyckelharpa and Norwegian Hardanger fiddle to hair-raising vocals to the electrifing sonic assult of Hoven Droven, you're bound to find something to melt your glacier. This was the first of two samplers (so far); collect them all---all you have to lose is a couple cappucinos!
