...Dulcimer and an album cover like this one, you really should know what youre getting into without even listening to this record.

...Dulcimer and the title Robs Garden written below a bucolic painting of an English summer cottage scene should instantly clear up any doubt about this being anything but a staid, easy-going acoustic folk record. Of course, anyone whos heard Dulcimer before wouldnt expect anything less I havent managed to find an actual copy of the CD issue of...

...dulcimer never failed to produce ecstasy. He had a voice which summoned memories of Arthur, Merlin, Guinevere. There was something of the Druid in him. Like a psalmist, he intoned his verses in an ethereal chant which the angels carried aloft to the Glory seat. When he sang of Jesus, Mary and Joseph they became living presences. A sweep of...

Two of the strings were tuned in unison and played the melody. The third was a drone, like a five-string banjo. She strummed it like her father...
