Today I learned wtf a "Hurdy Gurdy" is.
I know Middle Age instruments demand godlike craftwork but this thing is ridiculous levels of complex. I thought I didn't like folk music, until I heard the bass drop on this Hurdy Gurdy track.

I'm taken back to Lyn Elder at Magic Mountain Workshop in Mill Valley, 1970...

A bowed psaltery, anyone?

I love how generations discover these things again and again.
