otto - little pieces... move over perlowin? 8-)

[smike]

apparently perlowin has infected others... i just finished listening to a really fabulous cd with the following instrumentation:

xylophone
flute or sax
cello
pedal steel

classical pieces, zappa, brian wilson, etc.

the steel player is jim hoke... anybody heard of him, or this album? highly recommended!
