Hear Music is a dangerous place for me to enter. I cannot get out of there without buying at least one CD, and only one is rare. This last visit netted me 4 purchases, one a double disc collection (more on that one later).
I discovered something interesting about an artist that I did not realize was working a solo career.
Azam Ali is the lead vocalist in
Vas, a group I have enjoyed for years and for which I own several albums. Not so long ago, I also purchased a collection that was a tribute to Neil Gaiman called
Where's Neil When You Need Him? and featuring an eclectic selection of artists. After getting Ali's latest CD (
Elysium For The Brave) I discovered that there is not only an Ali song on the Neil Gaiman collection, but, although they have different names (the version on the Gaiman CD is called "The Cold Black Key"), that song also appears on her latest album as a song called "In Other Worlds."
