proving that too much is not enough, here’s this delightful show from edmar castañeda & joe locke, on harp and vibes — probably my two least favorite instruments in jazz, and yet, and yet… the info file has mr. castañeda playing both colombian and classical harp. i’m not sure what the difference is, and the internet didn’t help – “celtic harp” keeps popping up when i try to find out; i suppose i shouldn’t complain, living in ireland as i do, but still. btw, this was shared in 96/16 which wouldn’t play for me, so i’ve re-encoded to 48/16.

note re 48/16 wav conversion
this wouldn’t play except in vlc media player. the flacs decoded to wav files with
cbr 3072 kbs; 2 channels; sampling 96.0 khz; bit depth 16 bits
i re-encoded the wav files to these specifications
cbr 1536 kbs; 2 channels; sampling 48.0 khz; bit depth 16 bits
and then converted to new (and renamed) flacs using foobar2000. the new files were
renamed to add the song titles to the file names. fresh ffp & md5 files, obviously.
