I'm a sucker for strings. Guitar strings, cello strings, violin strings, harp strings, all things strings. I'm also a sucker for rock & roll, thunderous drums and bass , the occasional listening of the soundtrack to Stanley Kubricks "Barry Lyndon" and I have a healthy appetite for The Dirty Three. Perhaps that is why I loved this little surprise waiting in my inbox so much.
