Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #439 is an hour of acoustic visionary improv music played live by The Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, acoustic 6- and 12-string guitars, Native flute and ukulele, Robin Rooney on djembe and vocals, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on Native drum and congas. Recorded at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in April 2021, todays show begins with the epic, dramatic “Listen To The Call Of Spirit”, a song with a series of movements that take the piece from nursery rhyme to strikingly progressive and dynamic, to funked-out jazz and bossa nova. Highlights are Mariam’s Native flute passages and Mariam and Robin’s inspired vocals. “Return” is a song in prayer of the spring and the return of the light led by Mariam’s chiming, silvery 8-string ukulele and “In The Stillness Of My Heart” is a dramatic, beautiful, powerful piece built around a dancing piano motif from Bob. “Children Of The Stars” and “I’m So Happy I’m Alive are songs from Mariam’s “For The Children” album and are rendered beautifully here with fine vocals from Mariam and Robin. Mariam strums her chiming 12-string in DADGAD tuning for today’s closer, the deeply meditative raga “Lift Your Spirit Higher”.
