cd cover Iso Karhu
Ulappa
$17.99

This one is a peculiar little number: ancient Asian poems are joined with original music by Hannu Virtanen and Tuomas Logren. But what results is kind of like a Finnish version of the folk-rock of The Band. It's an unexpected twist, but it makes for interesting folk-pop music. You'll miss a lot without understanding the language, but you'll get a great aural experience in spite of missing the texts.

Maija Karhinen (voice), Taito Hoffren (voice), Hannu Virtanen (voice, guitar), Tuomas Logren (guitars, dobro, bouzouki, percussion), Eero Grundström (keyboards, accordion, jewsharp) plus bass and drums.

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.
