I love the bassoon. I find it to be a very lovely instrument with a very playful and mystical sound. It can sound creepy and it can sound friendly. Given the context of course.

The Morning News had pointed me towards Bubblegum Fink, which had posted a collection of rare Sleeper bubblegum cards. But the first entry I saw was not, amazingly, bubblegum cards. It was about a lovely site called The Musical Touch of Leonard Nimoy. Well-put together, absolutely thorough...and you can even sample I'd Love to Make Love to You. His voice certainly fits the singer-songwriter "sound" of the time, but is also surprisingly fragile; I don't know whether to ... MORE
Amazing video!
