| | Nigel Eaton, Pandemonium -- Music of the Hurdy-Gurdy (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-19) |
 | | Pandemonium is his first solo album since The Music of the Hurdy Gurdy on Saydisc in 1988 -- far too long a period given how bleedin' good he is. (Note to Beautiful Jo or some other CD publisher -- get The Music of the Hurdy Gurdy back in print!) |
 | | According to the Duellists Web site which is yet another one-off project that this artist did some years ago, Nigel originally played piano and 'cello, moving to the hurdy-gurdy when his father, Christopher Eaton, started to make them in 1981. |
 | | There's a bit more restraint, a touch more of a medieval feel, on this album than there is on some of his albums such as Ancient Beatbox (with Paul James and Sheila Chandra) or Panic at the Café (with Andy Cutting), but that doesn't mean it's downbeat. |
