Yep, hard to believe, but such a thing really exists, and it's wonderful: Medieval Baebes.
Good good stuff.

Favorite Album: The Rose
Favorite Track: Dringo Bell, a very vulgar poem (even by today's standards!) in Chaucer's English, set to historically-appropriate (more or less) music, and sung by many beautiful, young, nubile, soft, fresh, glowing, absolutely stunningly beautiful women. Wow.
Wonderful wonderful wonderful and they are very pretty too!

By the way, here are the lyrics to "Dringo Bell," with slightly modernized spellings:

For all I know, it may not even work anymore.
Besides, what are the chances you'll understand Middle English anyway?

- Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

Ok, so I was curious enough to wade through the online pics to see if any of them could actually PLAY a musical instrument, and guess what? Apparently at least two of them do....play the instrument I have seen referred to here with great disdain (or at least a minimum of affection)... as the "re#*%!er".

Yeah, but I get the distinct impression they'd like nothing more than to drink the blood of the living.peeplj wrote:sung by many beautiful, young, nubile, soft, fresh, glowing, absolutely stunningly beautiful women. Wow.

them do play recorder and tabor drum quite nicely. They also bring
along an older lady who plays hurdy-gurdy and some kind of portable
harpsicord-type instrument. They're great to see live, they wear
incredible costumes.

That's a mighty nice set of adjectives, every one of them true.peeplj wrote:...sung by many beautiful, young, nubile, soft, fresh, glowing, absolutely stunningly beautiful women.
I also love their diction.
