It took 22 years, but I knew if I waited long enough New Age would become hip again. The Los Angeles Times has given its code of approval to a new wave of musicians like Animal Collective and Blues Control (Who have a tune called “Paul Winter’s Solstice”), who wave their New Age flags high. Of course, the Times is behind the curve because tons of acts have been lifting form New Age discs for years. More later. Here’s the article. John Diliberto ((( echoes )))

Bwah-ha-ha-ha…
Ye gods, this is funny.
