Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #463 is an hour of visionary acoustic improvisational music featuring the Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, Native flute, acoustic guitar, shruti box, harmonica, ukulele and kalimba, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on congas and Native drums. Today’s episode was recorded live in September 2021 at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts, and begins with the floating, mystical “Hold The Light”, a beautiful, serene peace featuring lyrical native flute and a fine vocal from Mariam. Mariam strums her ukulele for the evocative, peaceful twilight song “Serenading”, a song in praise of the last days of summer suspended in minimalist piano and steady congas. Mariam’s shruti box provides the drone for the raga “Restore Your Vision” and the gorgeous “Oh The Fireflies” is another paean to the end of summer that drifts on Mariam’s shimmering acoustic guitar and jazzy piano from Bob. “Achineayo” is a gentle blues with lyrical harmonica from Mariam and fundamental Native drum from Craig over Bob’s rolling gospel piano. We complete today’s show with the percolating “If Only” a song of love and longing with a gospel feel.

Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in September of 2021, today’s show begins with the dramatic “Green Dancing Trees”, a driving gypsy autumn song from Mariam with powerful backing from the band and fine countervocals from the singular Ptah. “Rialiya” from Mariam’s “Release” album is given a powerful reading with driving percussion from Craig and powerful vocals from Mariam and Ptah before the band eases into the classic “Tracks Of My Tears” to support a powerful, affecting vocal from Ptah. Mariam begins the next exploration with a plaintive, extended fanfare on Native flute as Bob sets up a compelling fusion framework for what slowly collects into the lush, mystical “Luna”, a swirling, majestic piece that features fine work from each member of the ensemble. Mariam’s classic “I’m The Full Moon” from her 2012 album “Gaea Star Goddesses” is expressed with power and precision before the band slides into Mariam’s beautiful, tropical song “Islands”, a funky Hawaiian groove featuring Mariam’s 8-string ukulele. Blues is the game for the last segment of today’s show with Ptah cutting loose on two powerful, improvised blues vamps as Bob digs deep into the 20th century to bring a powerful authenticity to Ptah’s vocal adventures.
