Shin Joong Hyun - Beautiful Rivers and Mountains
Man, you ever hear of Shin Joong Hyun's "Beautiful Rivers and Mountains"? That song is amazing! I was ever so sad to miss out on Light in the Attic’s first pressing of this record a couple years back. Well, if I’m being honest, I did get one copy for myself and boy have I ever been enjoying it immensly! I don’t mean to rub it in. But hey, it’s been repressed so I finally got you a copy too! Let me tell ya, this album ain't just music—it's like a portal to another time and place! Hope you dig it. I think you’ll find it’s worth the wait.
