专辑介绍
前一阵子有朋友已经发了这张碟的mp3版本，不过这么经典的音乐还是应该提供APE版本供大家选择。
本碟以一位病人向女巫医求诊的全过程为主题，共八首曲子，五十六分钟；作者不但作曲编曲，更独立演奏十多种民族、电子、流行乐器、有吉他、木笛、风琴、三角铃、排箫、竖琴、鼓等加电子合成器模拟人、风、鸟、雷、雨等自然声,分开来录.再混成天籁之声。虽类似混音手法在流行乐界并不罕见，但在较讲究的新纪元音乐中，便显示了艺高人胆大，且各种乐器也奏得不俗，更显多才多艺。效果只佳，可谓一播放就将神庙所在的南美安第斯山上的鸟语花香、清风轻吹、阳光璀璨、高山流水、拂琴听泉的世外桃源般的景象带到眼前一样。Medwyn Goodall发掘出南美印第安民族音乐中的新纪元要素：健康、精力充沛、松弛、幸福。
About the Artist
From his home and studio in rural Cornwall, Medwyn Goodall has devoted himself to reflecting the beauty and inspiration of nature through his music. He plays over a dozen instruments, although his main instrument is the guitar, with which he has evolved a unique style melodic, expressive and graceful a music that is both inspiring and calming. Born in the Yorkshire Dales in the village of Harrowgate he spent his childhood in the scenic splendor of the countryside; the Goodall family veterinarian was the best-selling author James Herriot. Raised with the sounds of the 60's, Med was particularly fond of the Beatles and the Beach Boys, claiming their melodies influenced him to get his first guitar; at the age of 11 Medwyn met English pop star Cliff Richard, who encouraged him in his choice of a musical career. He began composing music as soon as he had mastered a few chords on his guitar, playing in many different bands as a teenager. One of these groups, Trax, appeared on the television show Check It Out and made numerous radio appearences, including a guest spot on BBC Radio Leeds. Goodall turned out to be a natural musician, able to pick up any instrument and play it. His range is amazing, including double bass, mandolin, piano, drums, harp, percussion, flute, glockenspiel, panpipes, vibraphone, and synthesizers of all types. He has designed and built his own recording studio, stocking it with many varities of sampler (which Medwyn claims as his favorite instrument, as it will perform any musical sound in the world), synthesizers, guitars and a wealth of acoustic instruments.
