This artist is from Detroit. Certainly pretty amero-centric! Great tune even if he is from the US.

Sean is based in Detroit - he is often featured with various group configurations and in local festivals. Very talented and seems genuinely supportive of other musicians.

Outstanding ditty! A good test for your stereo system as it's a spacious sound with actual analog deep bass. 

So good it made me tinkle a little bit.

I listened to this and was thinking of Scheherezade, and the next tune was Arabian Heights...funny.

One of the reasons I love Radio Paradise, and will continue to be a subscriber, is that Bill introduces me to music that I never, ever heard before.  I don't love all of his choices, but I am so glad that he doesn't appear  willing to pander to the populist view of what constitutes great music.  My personal playlist has been expanded exponentially since I began listening to RP, and I look forward to many more years of, "Who is this?" and "Where did you get this?" from fellow AA members that I take to meetings.

Yes, and if it were 4 minutes long I'd rate it "6". The 8 minute version get a "1" because I have to mute it around the 7 minute mark or my brain starts to bleed. Very few RP-songs do that to me. Very few indeed.
