| Lure do not have to rely on any electronic trickery to invest their songs with assured grace. They layer their sound very carefully so that the emotional impact of the music is all the greater. Take "Swarte Skolena" as an example, where fiddle player Jonas Akerlund and cittern player Esbjorn Hazelius sing in tandem. Pettersson's hurdy-gurdy swells, but never overtakes the song. Here, as elsewhere, Fredrik Bengtsson's double bass is handled with sensitivity, adding a rich dimension to Lure's sound. ... Lure's music opens you up; you can feel the change of seasons in your heart, and the craft of these four superb players at the top of their game. - Lee Blackstone, RootsWorld |

Please note!
Most CDs have been
imported from Europe or Asia.
They are not all
shrink-wrapped, and I am not
going to con you by wrapping them
here just to make you think they
have been sterilized in America.
We guarantee that the CDs and the
contents are all brand new and in
perfect condition. Whenever I
can, I use recycled shipping
materials. They may not look as
pretty on the outside, but they save
money and keep the trash dumps a
little bit emptier.
